The subject of this research is the structure of the school system in Croatia and some European countries with special reference to the duration of general compulsory schooling. In doing so, a descriptive method with a historical-comparative approach is applied. In this article, the author presents the efforts of some European countries, especially the countries of the European Union, to reform the structure of the school system with the aim of extending compulsory schooling. In this context, the author presents the efforts of the Republic of Croatia known as the europeanization of Croatian education after the 1990s, with special reference to the follow-up of those reform proposals that prevised changing the structure of the school system and extending the duration of compulsory schooling. The research confirmed that structural changes in the school system were carried out in most European countries between the 1970s and 1980s, but already in the first years after the Second World War. Changing the school system is a continuous process, and extending the duration of general compulsory schooling is an effort that continues even in modern conditions. Such efforts were not consistently followed in Croatia. In the same way, not all reform documents after the 1990s, which provided for a longer duration of compulsory schooling (nine and ten years), were implemented. Thus, attempts at europeanization failed in one of the important changes in the school system. There are four groups of reasons for the longer duration of compulsory schooling in Croatia: to join the development of a common society (the European Union), to achieve a common European educational orientation, to respect the specifics of the psychophysical development of children and young people, and to meet the specific needs of Croatian society.

The aim of this paper is to show the specifics of use, but also the limitations of factorial designs in quantitative differential designs in the field of social sciences. The specifics of two-way and multi-way (n-way) factorial designs in the Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) are presented with regard to the specifics of the types of sum of squares (type one SS, type two SS, type three sum of squares). An unbalanced 2*4 two-way ANOVA model was tested using Type three sum of squares (type three SS) in which the main effect was absent. Due to the principle of marginality, the main effects cannot be interpreted using the Type 3 sum of squares (type three SS), but for the main effects the need for a particular approach, one-way ANOVA and two-way analysis of variance (factorial design) is imposed, but not with using Type 3 sum of squares.

In the second decade of the twenty-first century, a model of education was offered that became known as the acronym STEM. This model was accepted as the basis for education reforms, including Croatia. More detailed analyzes pointed to the shortcomings of that model. Therefore, the basis of education, denoted by the acronym STEAL - science, informatics, technology, art and languages: formal (eg, mathematics, logic and computing) and human: visual and auditory, is proposed.

Civic education in the Republic of Croatia is (re)actualized and recognized as a necessary support for the development of the individual and society in a world permeated by the degradation of fundamental human values, uncertainty, existential frustration and the challenges of technological society. In this paper, the Curriculum for the cross-curricular theme Civic education for primary and secondary schools (Official Gazette 10/2019) is analyzed in order to gain some insight into the extent to which civic education is directed towards the preservation and development of the fundamental values necessary for the growth of responsible citizens in the social community. In doing so, its values are compared with the values of the three basic curricular documents. The values presented in the analyzed Croatian curricula are connected in this paper with the anthropological-value categories of Frankl’s logotherapy as a psychotherapeutic direction and the basic human message that each of us should take responsibility for finding the right answer to life’s challenges and tasks that life constantly puts before the individual because thus one can discover the uniqueness and meaning of one’s own life. Being responsible as an individual and a member of the social community - this is what (civic) upbringing and education aims to achieve in children and young people. In this way, it is possible to prevent their existential confusion, but at the same time to guide them on the path of a meaningful life. Responsibility as a value is the only constant in all the analyzed curricula, as indicated by the results of the analysis, and education for responsibility is the fundamental message of logotherapy, which also finds its application in the field of education as logopedagogy.

Croatian teaching abroad is identified with nurturing the Croatian language and cultural heritage, but also as an important link for children and young people of Croatian emigrants with the homeland. Given the many specifics of Croatian teaching abroad, teachers often face many challenges that affect their successful design, organization and implementation. Therefore, the aim of this paper focused on researching what content should be improved in teacher education programs for work in Croatian teaching abroad, i.e. what competencies do teachers think they should acquire in order to be prepared for all the specifics of such way of working. Teachers’ attitudes were surveyed using the survey method using the Google Forms tool. The survey was completed by 61 teachers, which is 63% of the total number of teachers teaching Croatian abroad in 17 countries in the world. The results obtained from the qualitative analysis suggest that Croatian teachers abroad face administrative, communication, organizational and professional-pedagogical problems, as well as problems in knowing the language and the educational system of the receiving countries. In addition, the results of the research point to the need for additional training of Croatian teachers abroad and additional guidelines for their training outside the homeland.

The aim of this paper is to confirm the effectiveness of the education program for high school students on healthy nutrition for newborns, infants, and young children. A structured education program of four lessons on early child nutrition was created for high school students. The education program was presented to the Commission for the Protection and Promotion of Breastfeeding of the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Croatia and was corrected according to the Commission’s instructions. In accordance with the approval of the Ministry of Science and Education, non-institutional teaching according to the mentioned program was carried out on a trial basis in the final grades in three high schools of the Bjelovar-Bilogora County: Čazma High School, Bartol Kašić Grubišno Polje High School and August Šenoa Garešnica High School. Adult students personally gave informed consent to participate in the research, and for underage students parents gave consent. The supervisors of the supervised peer education were students of the first and second year of the professional study of Nursing at the Technical College in Bjelovar. They were prepared for such an activity with the help of the education program organized at the Techical College. Classes were supervised by supervisors who followed the work of student educators. The effects of the education were measured by a validated Questionnaire of the intentions, attitudes and knowledge of pupils and students about breastfeeding (BIAKQ questionnaire). The intentions, attitudes and knowledge of high school students about the natural nutrition of newborns and young children were measured immediately before and after the end of the education, and the difference in the results confirmed the effectiveness of the education.

The basic European principles for teacher competences and qualifications (European Commission, 2005) recommends teacher education at the higher education level. Accordingly, in the Republic of Croatia, two-year professional studies were extended to three years, and then undergraduate and graduate university studies in early and preschool education (EPE) were established. In this way, vertical mobility is ensured, which enables educators to continue their education at specialist post-graduate and doctoral studies (Domović et al., 2022). The aim of this research was to examine student self-assessment of the level of mastery of specific, systemic and generic competencies at the end of the EPE graduate study. An effort was made to additionally examine whether there are differences in the level of development of each of the three levels of competence in relation to the way of studying and the intention of employment in the profession, and the connection between the level of development of each of the three levels of competence and the components of student involvement in the study. The examined sample included 191 students from five Croatian universities in the 2020/2021 academic year. were participants in the final year of the graduate study of early and preschool education (EPE). The research was conducted through an online survey, and participation was voluntary and anonymous. The results show that students estimate the highest level of development of generic competences related to general knowledge, skills and attitudes that contribute to the quality of pedagogical practice, specific competences that educators need to plan and implement daily educational work, and they consider that they have partially developed system competencies on harmonizing the professional work of educators with the requirements of educational policy and the educational context in which they operate. Part-time students have a statistically significantly higher assessment of the development of specific and systemic competencies than full-time students, while no statistically significant differences were found between the assessments of part-time and full-time students in the level of generic competencies. Students who express the intention of employment in the profession have a statistically significantly higher assessment of the development of specific, systemic and generic competencies than those students who do not intend to be employed in the profession after obtaining the master’s degree in RPOO. The results of this research indicate that it is necessary to introduce changes in the curricula and in the teaching of educational graduate studies in order to ensure a better possibility of knowledge transfer and the application of theoretical concepts in practice.

VERN’ University has normalized the monitoring of students' satisfaction since its establishment. VERN' qual quality system, in accordance with ISO 9001:2015 and standards and guidelines for quality assurance in the European higher Education area, among other things, prescribes a semester survey of students on satisfaction with individual courses and teachers, as well as periodic surveys on satisfaction with other services. This information is an important resource for improving the system, which is particularly important for private educational institutions operating under conditions of very competitive market. In 2019 VERN’ introduces the so-called exit survey of students at the end of undergraduate and graduate studies. The results of exit questionnaires on a sample of 663 students from 14 different studies were analysed in this paper. The results generally show very high satisfaction with studies and studying on VERN’, especially with the quality of teachers and other employees, their expertise, and the open and respectable approach. They are also highly satisfied with extracurricular activities, premises, internal communication, organization and logistics, and most of them would repeat their VERN’ studies experience and recommend it to others. Although no systematic deficiencies of VERN’ were identified through quantitative analysis, the content analysis on open-type questions, done separately by studies, pointed to potential areas for improvement.

To begin with, it is necessary to explain what stress is and how it arises. Stress is a term used to connect the relationship between an individual and his environment, as well as an assessment of the successful resolution of many demands, the resolution of which exceeds our capabilities. This means that stress arises at the moment when the demands from our environment are so great that we cannot successfully face them and solve them. In this research, the authors studied stress and predictors of teacher stress in secondary schools in the Republic of Croatia. Vocational schools and grammar schools mostly employ teachers who have completed similar or the same studies, i.e. their input variables are similar, so the research wanted to examine whether there are similarities and/or differences between them after they are employed in the education system. The following instruments were used: Scale for measuring the sources of teacher stress, Psychological Flourishing Scale, Oldenburg Burnout Questionnaire, Teacher Job Satisfaction Scale, Teacher Self-Efficacy Scale and Modified Work Orientation Questionnaire. The research results (N = 515) indicate that teachers in vocational schools experience a higher level of stress due to inappropriate student behavior, while teachers in grammar schools feel more exhausted due to the demands of their work. Possible explanations of the obtained differences were the subject of discussion in this paper, and guidelines and recommendations were given in order to reduce the level of experienced teacher stress.

Numerous reforms and breakthroughs, which were truly felt in the coming centuries, marked Maria Theresa's rule. The Cordon Sanitaire, same as Bjelovar, became – thanks to numerous reforms – better organized after her coming to the throne in 1740. The basis for the most prominent among these reforms was the 1770 General Healthcare Book of Rules (Opći zdravstveni pravilnik). Bjelovar was founded as one of the responses to the reorganization of the Military Border, whereas the Cordon Sanitaire was initially established as response to repeated occurrences of the plague in the Habsburg territory, since this situation needed a solution. Unlike Bjelovar, the Cordon Sanitaire ceased to exist after the demilitarization of the Military Border. Nevertheless, its existence and development, same as Bjelovar's, remains one of the symbols of the reorganization of the Military Border and the 18th century in general.

Ethnic contact zone has been for centuries present along the Croatian-Hungarian border on the axis of the Drava River, stretching from the Mura River to Vojvodina. The objective of the paper is to illustrate the main factors that influenced assimilation after the First World War, and the forming of the border between Hungary and the Kingdom of the Serbs, the Croats and the Slovenes (later the Kingdom of Yugoslavia). It further shows the status of the “imprisoned” persons of the Croatian, the Slovenian and the Serbian nationalities on the Hungarian side of the border, the characteristics of their social and economic relations with homeland, political and geographical changes that influenced their everyday life, and the consequences thereof. High-quality foreign policy between Yugoslavia and Hungary and the atmosphere created by the great European politics marked their bilateral border relations in the period between the two World Wars.

The paper presents the organ fund of the Bjelovar-Bilogora County, its technical and artistic features, and its historical path from the mid-18th century to the present. Taking into account the complexity of the organ, the only possible way to conduct high-quality organist-organological analysis is by checking the instrument with the aim of defining its constructional and technical aspects. Church archives offer the most reliable information on the historical path. Such an interdisciplinary organist-organological approach to the organ-related topics, in this particular case the organs from the territory of the Bjelovar-Bilogora County, helps better understanding of the subject problem issues, and contributes to the knowledge of the history and the profession (organology). Such an approach is of exceptional importance, as it enables conservators to perform high-quality valorisation of the instruments, and organists to make use of valuable information for restoration and conservation activities. The data presented in this paper regarding organists and the organ fund, as well as their historical path in the area of the Bjelovar-Bilogora County, are a result of the field and archival research conducted in the periods 2012–2014 and 2020–2021. This is their first systematic presentation.

Bicyclism has lately become increasingly popular as an activity in which bicycle is used not only as a means of transport, but also as a tourist activity, and a type of recreation useful for human health and considerably environment-friendlier than the use of motor vehicles. This has influenced the process of arranging an ever increasing number of marked and unmarked cyclotourist routes on the existing roads with less traffic in motor vehicles, as well as establishing special bicyclist tracks along the existing roads, and separate bicyclist paths and roads intended for bicyclists only. Particularly popular among them are abandoned railway tracks, which are converted into bicyclist roads, since due to the needs of railway transport, they have relatively gentle slopes. Thus, they are not too demanding for the majority of cyclotourists, whilst their attractiveness lies in the fact that they pass through beautiful landscape. The paper presents the methodology of planning the revitalisation of the abandoned railway track between Bjelovar and Garešnica with a branch line for Grubišno Polje for the needs of developing cyclotourism in the Bjelovar-Bilogora County.

The paper analyses the empirical research (semi-structured interviews) in the settlements of the Bjelovar-Bilogora County (Ivanovo Selo, Treglava and Rastovac), conducted on a sample of the Czech national minority population. Ten members of the Czech national community were interviewed. The analysis of the interview has shown that the respondents are fairly well acquainted with the arrival of their predecessors in the second half of the 19th century to the territory of Croatia in general, and to the area of the Bjelovar-Bilogora County in particular. In the area of this County, the Czechs have in the course of time formed organised societies and associations with the aim of transferring, preserving and creating the national identity of their own community via folklore, school, libraries, cultural events and other activities both in institutions and in associations; this slows down the assimilation into the majority national community. Cultural remembrance additionally contributes to the preservation and transfer of the identity of this national minority. Furthermore, high-quality cooperation with the Czech state strongly influences the prevention of assimilation and all the activities that make the Czech national name recognised. Language is a major component of national identity of a national community at both the symbolic and the communicational levels. As regards the Czechs, apart from the sphere of socialisation (family, neighbours, friends), school education is of particular importance: members of this national minority are educated in the Czech language and thereby introduced to the Czech culture, which strengthens the sense of belonging to the Czech nation and slows down assimilation.

The paper tackles the cultural-educational role of libraries as local, information, educational and cultural centres of local communities in the contemporary information society; it further presents changes in their cultural-educational paradigm caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, and the global health-related and social crisis triggered by the spreading of the coronavirus. The paper furthermore points to the role of information-communication technology in bridging the communication gap with library users, caused by the introduction of epidemiological measures or rather the closing of library premises. The methodological approach is based on the available relevant literature, primarily covering the areas of librarianship and information sciences, but other scientific areas as well. The research has been conducted by the means of carrying out a questionnaire and gaining an insight into the official statistical data regarding the libraries of the Bjelovar-Bilogora County, with the aim of collecting information on the impact of epidemiological measures on their operation (changed opening hours, prohibited/limited stay of users at library premises), as well as the quantitative and qualitative levels of cultural-educational services the libraries provide to the community. The results of empirical research have shown that national libraries are capable of conducting diverse cultural-educational services adjusted to functioning in crisis situations (such as during the COVID-19 pandemic), and thus – using information-communication technology – retaining their major cultural-educational role in local communities and the society.

The objective of the paper is to indicate the wider context that should be taken into consideration when conducting a reform of the existing system of relationship between the local authorities and the central authority. The paper identifies not only the limitations, but also the possibilities available to the holders of the reform of the relationship between the local authorities and the central authority. Furthermore, the paper particularly stresses the necessity of respecting the relationship of the system towards the subsystems and the elements thereof as a necessary prerequisite for the introduction of a new system of satisfactory entropy level. The share of public income exceeds the tax capacity of the Croatian economy. Since, on the one hand, the existing tax pressure is unsustainable, it is, on the other hand, necessary to considerably increase the share of the local administration and self-administration in the income collected from taxes. By becoming a member state of the European Union, Croatia has waived one part of its national sovereignty. Abandoning national sovereignty in general redefines the system and the politics, which for its part makes the existing relationship between the central authority and the local authorities counterproductive. In order to reduce development-related differences among counties, and to secure the minimal standard of public goods for all citizens, it is necessary to establish a new system starting from the market state. The existing system regarding the relationship between the central authority and the local authorities was unsatisfactory in the circumstances of the national state. In a market state, it is unsustainable as such. In a market state, counties ought to take over the responsibility for the development of economy in their areas in order to 1) increase tax capacity that 2) enables a larger quantity and diversity of public goods. Though introducing economic principles into specifying the relationship between the central authority and the local authorities does not mean giving up interregional, interpersonal and intergenerational solidarity, their relationship ought to be based on the principles of competitiveness growth, as a foundation of the survival and development of any market state. The paper proposes a change in the approach to observing the problems, and the manner of solving economic issues at state level; possible solutions regarding the relationship between the central authority and the local authorities may thereby be observed and derived in order to actualise the necessary public goods within democratic processes, whereby the public sector should not jeopardize the competitiveness of the economy. The paper furthermore stresses the need to define the minimal standard of public goods at state level ensured by the central authority, accompanied by stimuli (including the intervention-related ones) granted by the counties, which are meant to accelerate the development and present the starting point for the equality of all the citizens of Croatia.

The aim of this paper is to critically analyze the evolution of development paradigms to explain the changes in the concept of innovation and innovation policy that have occurred in the last ten years, and how these changes affect the development model of the County of Bjelovar -Bilogora (BBC), but also of Croatia as a whole. The research starts from the thesis that the last decade has witnessed the rise of a new development paradigm based on the concept of entrepreneurial economy in which the dynamics of entrepreneurship, flexibility and heterogeneity of ideas play a key role in economic development. The change in the development paradigm was preceded by a weakening of the concept of knowledge economy, and a shift from research-based innovation and high technology to entrepreneurial innovation as factors for economic growth and competitiveness. Less developed regions, such as BBC, which hardly compete in the field of high technology and technological innovation, have thus acquired a new development paradigm in which economic progress depends on the dynamics of entrepreneurship and entrepreneurial innovation. The development of a new innovation paradigm in Croatia has been largely supported by the European Cohesion Policy, i.e. the Smart specialization strategy that sees the development of science and technological progress mainly in the context of regional development and within strengthening the local entrepreneurial competences. The research finds that BBC should ground its development on an entrepreneurial ecosystem with funding from the European Structural Funds, the basis of which the BBC in the past five years has made significant economic progress. The research is based on a critical conceptual analysis and used a qualitative methodology, mostly qualitative thematic analysis.

This paper offers a brief survey of the industry in Bjelovar during the socijalist period (1945–1990), with the aim of and focus on explaining and presenting the crisis of the socialist model of government in the late 1980s and the economic transition of three major companies in Bjelovar active in this period (Koestlin; Tomo Vinković; Sirela) to new, private-market businesses following the downfall of Yugoslavia and after the formation of the independent Croatian state. This phase was a difficult one for all three companies; the result was that two of them have survived in the new circumstances, whilst one has not. The choice of the subject companies in this paper as examples of the economic transition of Bjelovar has been partial, so that the conclusions may not be applied to the entire economy of Bjelovar in the socialist period, which has, to the most part, not managed to survive the Croatian model of the economic transition era.

Students’ honesty is a key element in the context of academic honesty, when taking into consideration that the share of academically educated persons is in permanent increase. Students are the future moving power of the society; they are the part of the population that will significantly influence the society on the whole and its socio-economic development, including the younger generations. The paper analyses eight groups of data on the constant growth of students’ dishonesty in the world, and particularly in the USA, the United Kingdom and Sweden. Over the last two decades, a significant increase has been recorded. The situation in Croatia has been compared with these trends on the basis of the data gained by studying various sources from literature and the internet, as well as several estimates. As a result, the following students’ dishonesty indices have been defined: average (IC0) and maximal (IC1) cheating at exams, and average (IP0) and maximal (IP1) plagiarism. The indices mainly follow global trends, whilst over the last two decades, the average percentage of students engaging in dishonest activities has been alarmingly high: 64 % (IC0); 76 % (IC1); 33 % (IP0) and 77 % (IP1). Data according to five socio-economic indices have been collected and estimated: GDP (gross domestic product per capita), HDI (human development index), GII (global innovation index), CPI (corruption perception index), and EI (education index). By the means of weighing correlation and regression, it has been determined that IC0, IC1, IP0 and IP1 are different indices; that IP0 and IP1 do not correlate well with time and the socio-economic variables due to an insufficient quantity of data on students’ plagiarism; that IC0 and IC1 correlate well with time, GDP, HDI and EI. Furthermore, IC0 and IC1 have modestly decreased over the last several years; and IP0 and IP1 have demonstrated no decrease at all. The dependence of IC0 and IC1 on GDP, HDI and EI has been presented by two sigmoid curves, with a minor increase around 1980, and a major around 2010. Since students’ dishonesty and its growth have been socially determined, the culture itself ought to be changed – from the culture of profit, competition and success to the culture of knowledge and responsibility, with pronounced social and moral components of the socio-economic development.

The symbolism of the Egg may be followed through cosmogonic myths in many civilisations, which are similar among themselves and show that they share the same roots in certain segments. The roots of the Western civilizational circle are to be found in Mesopotamia, Egypt, the Syrian and the Palestinian countries, as well as in the Aegean (Balkan-Anatolian) cultural sphere. As a result of the contact with other civilizational circles, a kind of transfer of these influences on a lot wider geographic areas took place, as well as cyclic synergy came about. By comparing various cosmogonic myths, the conclusion may be drawn that the Egg is the primordial state of Cosmos, with Chaos within, from which the first Germ of Life stems (nature; gods; humans). The meaning of the original symbol of the Egg got lost in the course of time, so that only its importance with respect to the abundance and the cyclic restoration of life in nature, and the afterlife and resurrection in religion remained.

Archival guides are frequently very lengthy, since they comprise the complete holdings of an individual archive; they are therefore disorganised, and to some researchers even discouraging. This paper presents the holdings collected in the course of operation of civil service, judiciary and the Military Border in the period from the founding of the town of Bjelovar to 1941, and relating to the town of Bjelovar. The thematic guide form has been chosen in order to present the oldest and the most fragmented materials that relate to the legal and administrative life of the town in one single place. Thanks to this type of approach, detailed listing of archive units in all the holdings was made possible. In order to unite all the sources of the history of the town, a list was composed including all the archive material holdings from the Bjelovar area, kept at the following Croatian heritage institutions: Croatian State Archive, State Archive in Bjelovar, and the Bjelovar Town Museum. The subject holdings include an abundance of concrete information on the town’s development, the functioning of institutions and the organization of life in the town. The objective of the paper is to familiarize all the potential researchers of the history of Bjelovar with this archive material.

Massive maternal dying during the 19th century in Bjelovar and the surrounding villages was connected with non-professional domicile childbirths and ignorance in connection with healthcare, particularly in rural settlements, despite the existence of organised healthcare and maternity protection in some of the villages in the Varaždin Military District, and later the Bjelovar-Križevci County. Maternal dying of a lesser scale had since the founding of the town of Bjelovar been recorded there; the town had an organised midwifery care including hospital medical service, surgeons and masters of obstetrics. The high rate of maternal dying(expecting mothers, parturient women, and women in confinement), particularly domicile, was accompanied by an even larger massive dying of the new-borns, which created a huge public healthcare problem. The registries of death of the Bjelovar County and the surrounding counties hold record of a massive dying of young women mainly due to the cause of death being in partu, in puerperio. In the Bjelovar hospital, deaths with defined causes (e.g. ruptura uteri, sepsis, hydrops) were recorded

There are not many records on the history of healthcare and practicing medicine in the Čazma area. It can be assumed that medicine was practiced in the present Čazma after the founding of the Chapter – church body of twelve canons. The Čazma then had the status of the auxiliary centre of the Zagreb Diocese and the religious, enlightenment and cultural centre of the Čazma Archdeaconry. Historical records witness to the connection between the Chapters in Čazma and Zagreb; the frequent stay of the prelates of that time in this area; as well as the attacks and destruction by the Turks followed by the fall of Čazma. A further confirmation of active healthcare activity in this area can be found in the records on the existence of a leprosarium in Čazma during the plague epidemic in the Middle Ages. Today Čazma has a primary healthcare service within the Public Health Centre of the Bjelovar-Bilogora County, an emergency medical assistance service within the County Public Health Institute, and an epidemiological service within the Public Health Institute. Pharmaceutical business and veterinary medical services actively operate as well. All of these services have undergone reforms over the recent years. Healthcare organization in ex-Yugoslavia differed from its present organization as of the middle of the previous century. Formerly, pharmaceutical and medical services formed a part of the Public Health Centre in Čazma. Some of these services have subsequently become independent from the said Health Centre, and several other services have merged into the Public Health Centre of the Bjelovar-Bilogora County. Hence, several subject services presently operate autonomously

The paper offers a chance to interpret and use the words of mouth as sources of knowledge in the context of (local) history. All three, or rather four thematic groups of the words of mouth are thereby presented, showing – on actual examples – what they can tell about the locality they come from, and what their importance for the narrators is. The narrators often treat them as legitimate sources of the knowledge of the history of localities, which they indeed frequently either are or become. Concentrating on individuals and their comprehension of the world around them, primarily gained through oral literature, and owing to the use of a different – folklore methodology, this type of study belongs to the new history as an autonomous stream of historical science (Bertoša, 2002). The paper is oriented towards an interdisciplinary research of oral literature and history in the area of North Moslavina, based on the autonomous study of oral literature

Célestin Freinet and Mato Lovrak were active as teachers more or less contemporarily in the 20th century. It may be stated that they lived and worked at the same time – between 1919 and 1960. Their activities and ideas regarding pedagogy were to a high extent similar. The following question may be posed: who or what was the cause that both of them had many ideas in common, which they practiced in working with children. Since they both lived and worked in the time of full affirmation of the projects and courses related to reform pedagogy, it may be assumed that both of them recognised the pedagogical values of the ideas arising from these projects, and successfully and creatively applied them in practice. Freinet was better known in other countries of Europe of that time, whilst Lovrak, apart from practicing these ideas in classroom, described them in a rather interesting fashion in novels tacking school life topics intended for children and teachers. Common features in their pedagogy and didactics particularly worth stressing are: pupils’ autonomy; cooperation among pupils; children’s rights; freedom of expression in various areas; freedom in writing compositions; pupils’ cooperative movement; empirical learning in a stimulating environment. They both stressed freedom as an important principle in relation to pupils’ activities. As concerns the interrelations regarding the activities of teachers and pupils, both of these well known teachers and pedagogues agree that the best school is the one where pupils are more active than the teachers, that is to say where learning predominates over teaching. Due to the fact that – thanks to their ideas and work – they had come closer to the phenomenon today called constructivist teaching, it may be concluded that they have both contributed to the affirmation of both constructivist teaching and constructivist didactics, which even today attract the attention of teachers and pedagogues
