This article discusses the issues related to the disproportionate impact of online education during the Coronavirus lock¬down on girls, in particular those in TVET institutions. The disproportionate access to online learning technologies and the lack of time that would normally have been allocated to learning - are two reasons that have a differentiated impact on girls compared to boys, on all levels of education. This crisis can seriously affect the technical vocational education system in the medium and long term, given the gender segregation of jobs learnt in these institutions, the impact of the crises on restaurant & cafe businesses and job losses in the sector.

Aggression and violence remain old concerns, but contemporan and actual too. The subject is inexhaustible, the causes are true causal complexes, the forms of manifestation are varied, so that the measures which prevent or diminish an aggressive behavior are difficult to prescribe, even for general situation or for special ones. The violence in schools requires an objective approach, aimed for identifying solutions that can be used to prevent and reduce it. If the extent linked to the level of aggression which affects the behavior of the students is checked, there could be identified ways of individual treatment, culminating in maintaining or transforming the attitude, in relation to the school rules, but at the same time, there could be also identified comprehensive programs, intended for the management of aggressive behaviors. Through the action of identifying the springs of aggression, we can actually combat violence.

It is known that we live in a society dependent on communication, a process that is imposed as a necessity of the existence of the society, which, moreover, conditions it. Creating communication skills is important for developing the quality in education, for achieving school success as well as for social, professional integration of the individual in life. The lack of communication and interconnection skills can lead to difficulties in the social integration of the child of any age, that is why an increasing emphasis is now being placed on school activities aimed at developing these skills.

The educational process in all European countries is based on digital and communication skills. Students are more involved and motivated if they apply directly their knowledge in real-life situations. Educational projects make the students understand the reason why they must learn daily and how their daily digital homework can improve the world or at least the community they live in. In this article, we took as an example the eTwinning project #FridaysForFuture@Schools, a collaboration between five countries and six schools, where they have applied Greta Thunberg’s campaign to solve environ¬mental problems. The students demonstrated sufficiently their communication and digital skills.

This paper examines the sociogenesis of a polemic representation, paying close attention to the context of repre¬sen-ta¬tional production. By means of content analysis of the written press from 1988-89, it will be illustrated how this representation originated in a context that retained past ideological characteristics both at the level of discourse and social practices and how it was presented to the Other. In the perestroika period, the official Soviet discourse, even if it was change-oriented, was thematized in the framework of the typical wooden language, so that the new emancipated representation (about glasnost) would not contradict the hegemonic one (of socialist ideology). Social conflict escalated when a group of intel¬lectuals, taking advantage of the glasnost reform, engaged more seriously with the national issues and put forward this polemic representation, which opposed the hegemonic representation of the Soviet Communist Party. Based on in-depth interviews with participants in diverse protest actions from that period, I intended to elucidate how their polemic represen¬tation was initially shaped in confrontation with Others (those who did not share these beliefs), as well as how this was expressed at the level of intergroup relations, and how it is now presented by means of narrative discourses.

The article deals with the problem of the correlation between subjective well-being and psychological health of teachers. It is shown that the problem of the relationship between subjective well-being and health in general is characterized by both potentially extremely important findings, and also by pivotal research issues and questions. The basic principles of the study of psychological health are determined. The main criteria and indicators of psychological health are highlighted. Groups of factors of subjective well-being of teachers that are directly related to their psychological health are identified. Distinctive features of teachers that can negatively affect their psychological health and subjective well-being are identified. The expediency of monitoring the subjective well-being of teachers as an important condition of identifying and maintaining their psychological health in the extreme conditions of nowadays is shown.

The current article reflects some results of research that come up with several essential contributions to the im¬ple-men¬tation of effective integration process within the Physical Education framework, by focusing on the root of altering behaviour  by examining and daring to alter stigmatic attitudes which demand taking responsibility on one's own role as a living model for leading change and eventually, being prepared to restructure the school culture. Based on a special training programme, Physical Education teachers were exposed to and became familiar with the multi-diversity attitude changing model and we could see that they actually became able to reconsider and change their attitudes towards the students, providing live leadership models for their “regular” pupils to keep making change happen.

This article examines how the COVID-19 pandemic is presented as a “sensitive object” and how this social object of representation generates “polemic social representations” (“polemic SR”) given the medical, social and religious controversies. To begin with, I will argue why the pandemic is a “sensitive object” and how this generates the elaboration of a new representation. Therefore, given that the representation of the pandemic is not well articulated in the social imaginary, I will analyse some aspects regarding the process of its elaboration (pre-existing representational contents, meanings attributed to new social practices, and implications of these social practices at the intergroup level) in order to outline some directions for the intended empirical study. I have looked, in particular, at three social practices that I consider defining in the construction of the representation of the pandemic, implicitly with intra- and intergroup effects: 1) mask wearing 2) physical distancing and 3) self-isolation. All three seem to be hardly integrated (for the time being) into the existing system of social practices.

This article is an important landmark in perceiving and understanding the role of will in directing the learning behaviours and learning activities in students. The starting premise is the concept of will as a process of behaviour regulation, which determines a person's ability to mobilize, concentrate and guide the nervous energy to achieve the intended goal. As a result, the content of this article addresses dimensions such as the meaning of the voluntary act and voluntary effort; the stages of the voluntary act, different theories about the voluntary act; the qualities of will, and approaches that underpin the importance of will in ensuring school's success. At the same time, the will is formed throughout life, and to achieve the desired results, it is necessary to practice will with the help of activities and constant exercise of voluntary efforts of various intensity, at the same time, shaping certain qualities that manifest themselves in personality traits.

Communication is an essential attribute of the human group, but especially for preadolescents whose do¬minant activity during this period of development is the communication with peers. Preadolescent aggression is a key issue addressed by both teachers and parents and therefore, this topic of interest deserves further development and analysis. The present study examined aggression and communication styles in preadolescents. The study sample consisted of 90 5th, 6th and 7th grade preadolescent students. The three research hypotheses were verified, and the results allow us to state that preadolescents who are at different stages of schooling differ from each other in terms of forms of aggression; the 5th, 6th and 7th grade students differ in their communication styles; on supporting the existence of a relation¬ship between aggression and communication styles in preadolescents, especially related to the non-assertive style.

The psychoemotional well-being of the pupils in the learning process is very important, and the school needs to provide a favourable and safe educational environment for their emotional health. We consider relevant the need to include in the normative and regulatory acts for education the provisions in order to strengthen the emotional psychological dimen¬sion, namely the emotional well-being of the pupils. Studies of national education policies confirm that education policies are unbalanced in this sense and give priority to the formation of other psychological dimensions than that of emotional well-being. The formation of affective availabilities becomes an important goal of education and a major task of school psychologists. The creation of new structures at the state level and the promotion of laws that will facilitate the work of psychologists in educational institutions is indispensable. At the same time, it is necessary to expand scientific research in order to study the particularities of the affectivity of pupils in new vital conditions, and the characteristics of the emotional sphere of pupils in response to new societal challenges.

In this article we intend to highlight certain opinions formulated by some leading thinkers of humanity from the past centuries - philosophers and theorists in the field of culture, civilization or educational sciences - on the issue of value in general, with emphasis on the fundamental values and their impact on shaping the paradigm of the educational ideal in different eras. Fully aware of the vastness of the topic that deserves an exhaustive research in a separate volume, we intend, for the time being, to have an initial approach to the subject matter, formulating some assertions in a rather prolegomenic/propaedeutic manner. We focused on the beginning of the modern epoch, because from then on pedagogy becomes more and more separated from philosophy, outlining a special discipline, with its own object of study, most often called the philosophy of education. Interesting to note that from the perspective of the subject under investigation, regardless of the name given to the disciplines dealing with education, the problem of fundamental values is a recurring one; likewise, their influence or contribution to building the paradigm of educational ideal in different epochs is enduring too.

In an attempt to answer the question “What is culture and why do we need it today?” in the context of contemporary education, the article examines the conceptual dimensions of the notion of culture in terms of different schools of thought, directions, theories, models and systemic interpretations of the humanities, including anthropology and philosophy of culture. Emphasizing the idea that human ontology is conditional on the cultural one, it is the culture that determines human becoming at the individual (personality) and collective (society) level, mediating the integrity, the originality of the personality and its creative potentialities. In the same vein, the article presents two fundamental concepts inherent to the cultural phenomenon such as: “value” - representing an ideal, a world to which the human being aspires and “style” - determinant of the unity of essential spiritual manifestations. Following the pedagogical valences of forming a complete personality and becoming human as a man and creator, the article elucidates the cultural phenomenon first of all as a manifestation of the spirit, congenital to the human being and immanent to the plastic definition of man. Returning to the area of current education, in the idea that the “school” is the most important social institute designed to highlight cultural phenomena in order to “cultivate the human spirit” and reveal the teleological essences of the human being, the article also discusses the effects of the “spiritual/cultural crisis” of postmodernity, marking as the main loss of contemporaneity - that of the “complete man”.

Moral culture formation is one of the most complex aspects of education. This is determined, on the one hand, by the fact that the individual is the subject of moral relationships from an early age, being continuously subjected to such often contradictory influences, and on the other hand, to the psychological variables involved in such a process. The moral culture of the personality consists of the following components: general-human moral norms; moral facts; moral skills; traditions and customs of moral behavior; feelings, opinions, beliefs and moral ideals.

The study proposes to explore a range of factors that influence the formation of social representation (SR) of birth in the Romanian context. Based on this goal we set out to answer the following question: to what extent the biological gender, the presence vs. absence of children into/from the couple, the experimental manipulation through a positive vs. negative texts influence the formation of SR of the birth of the Romanians? Thus, the present research involves comparative design and measuring the affective dimension of SR. Participants in the study were female and male, married and unmarried subjects, experimentally manipulated by positive or negative texts. The results showed that presence of children in the family and experimental manipulation variables had a main effect on the formation of social representations of birth, while biological gender did not play an important role in shaping the social representation of the birth. Regardless of gender the subjects who have children presented more positive affects about SR of birth than subjects who don’t have children. On the one hand, the type of manipulation (positive vs. negative) had a significant effect on the dependent variable compared with control group. On the other hand, a significant influence was found rather at subjects who don’t have children. Subjects from positive manipulation condition presented significantly higher positive affects in terms of social representation of birth compared with subjects under the condition of negative manipulation.

The term “open education”, which has become popular thanks to the program provided by the University of Massachusetts in 2011 and aimed at promoting open textbooks, is now becoming a relevant and popular research topic in the pedagogical science. Openness aims to develop the student’s ability to work independently in a variety of contexts. However, the “open textbook” design is often used incorrectly, often declaratively. The lack of comprehensive reflection on instructional design is reflected in the variety of definitions and in affordability of the open textbooks technology in higher education. In this article the availability of open textbooks in higher education is examined.

Most times people tend to associate emotional abuse with content of institutionalization syndrome, and this perception is due to many variables, some of them extrinsec (organizational culture, collective memory), and other intrinsec. Unfortunately, the primary forms of emotional abuse on children are all around us in any living space. Hostility, con¬flictual relationships models, mental patenting of a nonfunctional enviroment as normal, where the attachment needs and recognition of their identity are violated, all of them can become forms of emotional abuse at different intensities, with disharmonic effect in psycho emotional and social dynamics. Extreme forms of manifestation of abuse, such as murder atempt and murder, from all kind of crimes, have the most etiology in chronic emotional abuse suffered by the offender. This way, mental traumatized contents find an unfair path for outpouring dynamics, element met in the criminal matrix structure from specialized literature. Nevertheless, in the background of the offender there is a mythological tresure of the unconscoius, intrapsychic sym¬bolism of the act being often different from the connotation received through the Code of Criminal Procedure. Therefore, in the present work, we meet the case of a teenage girl, who by the suppressure of her mother’s life, did not want to do anything else but to preserve the maternal image for eternity.

Transition from primary to secondary school is seen by many researchers as a phenomenon affecting adolescents’ behavior and feelings: sexual and physiological changes, cognitive changes, social changes that include strengthening the sense of belonging to a group of peers; emotional changes affecting emotional adjustment and mood swing; independence development and personal identity formation. In Israel, transition takes place in one of the most difficult age in the life of a pupil –preadolescence, which is characterized by a multitude of mental turmoil, and various internal stresses. Non effective transitions between the educational frameworks might be difficult for pupils and harm the educational sequence and even cause a dropping-out of pupils from orderly studies. In this context, the pedagogical model of transition from primary to secondary school aims to facilitate the process itself. It involves the development of an integrated educational program that proved to be of great importance for reinforcing the relations and contacts of the educational system in order to be relevant and suitable for the development of pupils and their needs. Exploiting the model in the experiment has demonstrated that the transition program provides support for cognitive and affective resources to maintain the performance of high school outcomes, motivation for learning, low school anxiety, and appropriate school behavior.

Real identity is acquired in the course of life, but, above all, it increases during adolescence. It depends on the appreciation or disapproval of others and on the cognitive processing way of the about information about self. The formation of an identity also refers to the virtual spectrum, which in turn complements the personal profile with individual qualities and characteristics that sometimes are not linked to the personality of the teenager. Virtual identity is a part of the personality that lives in the contemporary context of the modern society and represents a newer formation from a scientific point of view. The virtual profile (avatar) is often idealized, and aims to accrue some appreciations and comments based on admiration, positive appreciation or the confirmation of virtues. There is a link between virtual identity and Internet addiction, which can be explained by the fact that excess time spent in cyberspace, apart from physical symptoms such as fatigue, headache, etc., triggers teenagers՚ certain feelings and depressing states that can be explained through the mismatch between the real and the virtual ego.

With the rapid development of electronic information and communication media in the last decades, distributed work has become much easier, faster and more efficient. Responding to the increasing de-centralization and globalization of work processes, many organizations have responded to their dynamic environments by introducing virtual teams that collaborate by communication technologies across geographical, temporal, cultural and organizational boundaries to achieve common goal in their organization outputs. Virtual teams are growing in popularity, and becoming increasingly common. Nowadays, companies are heavily investing in virtual team to enhance their performance and competitiveness. This kind of teams can be defined as small temporary groups of geographically, organizationally and/or time disperse which coordinate their work predominantly with electronic information and communication technologies in order to accomplish one or more organization tasks. In the competitive market, virtual teams represent a growing response to the need for fasting time-to-market, low-cost and rapid solutions to complex organizational problems. Virtual teams enable organizations to pool the talents and expertise of employees and non-employees by eliminating time and space barriers. Recent information systems research has studied various aspects of virtual teams. Despite virtual team growing preva¬lence, relatively little is known about this new form of team.

The analysis of roles performed by a person can be carried out at three levels: sociological level, in which the role acts as a system of role expectations, derived from, a model given by society; socio-psychological level – a role mani-fested within interpersonal interaction; psychological level – on which the role is internal or imagined, which is not always implemented in role-based behaviour, but in some way affects it; the role here is a structural element of the gender identity of the individual. Gender role conflict is a contradiction either between the normative structures of different gender roles (inter-role conflict), or between the structural elements of one gender role (role conflict – intra-role conflict). Female gender-role conflicts can be purely role-based (for example, „housewife syndrome”) or inter-rolled (for example, a combination of family and professional roles), etc. Male gender-role conflicts are determined by the fact, that the norms of male gender roles remain more conservative and rigid than the norms of female gender roles. The model of „male role stress”, defines the characteristics of the male gender roles that are controversial and incon¬sis-tent and are a source of anxiety, tension and male problems. The negative consequences of male gender roles imple-men¬tation are the following: gender-role stresses, conflicts, intrapersonal conflicts and, as a result, compensatory courage, hyper-masculine behaviour and machismo as its kind, problems in the professional realization of person potential, etc.

The paper analyses the theoretical principles of the features of social identity, which made it possible to study deeply the problem of group membership, based on a questionnaire on social identity. The basis of the research is the theory P.P. Bellini [1], in which the emergence of social identity occurs from the moment of birth under the influence of the parent's family, but the maximum development it acquires during the interaction of rights in society, which later allows you to talk about changes in the relevance of the one or another structural characteristic of social identity. The family is in the first place in significance, which gives the person support for the realization of their own needs and self-development through membership in the group. But intercollective relationships are also significant, this makes it possible to find satisfaction, despite the strong sense of competition that arises. The article reveals the age-old peculiarities of the transformation of social identity. It shows that with age, a person does not lose the need to identify himself with a particular social group, which gives her a sense of satisfaction from staying in it. Satisfaction of this need allows it to better reveal its potential in self-knowledge and self-development, as well as to realize itself in the system of group relations. Each age group has its own traits, which characterize the formation of a person as a social person. That is, with growing up and gaining responsibility for the establishment of one's own career, family, political and cultural views, social identity is updated, which is subsequently not dull, but transformed into a desire to meet their own needs through the group without its structural connections, intergroup relations, and based on the experience gained.

In the context of international standards, violence against children is a serious violation of children's rights. The Convention on the Rights of the Child stipulates the obligation of States Parties to protect the child against any form of violence, injury or abuse, physical or mental, abandonment or neglect, ill-treatment or exploitation, including sexual abuse (art. 19) [1]. At the same time, despite the existence of the international and national legal framework to prevent and combat this phenomenon, violence in school is a current topic. Apart from the fact that the subject is approached in multiple studies from a legal, social, psycho-pedagogical perspective, it remains important in the context of social and institutional transformations at national and global level.
