Croatia has a strong VET tradition; participation at upper secondary level is one of the highest in the EU. The share of early leaving from education and training is the lowest in the EU.

  • EUROPEAN INTEGRATION PROCESSES Where Is Croatia?
    157 Dragomir Vojnić* UDK 338.22 (497.5):339.923 Izvorni znanstveni rad EUROPEAN INTEGRATION PROCESSES Where is Croatia? Paper prepared for the International conference on “Russia and the CIS in recent European integration processes” Russian Academy of Sciences Institute of International Economic and Political Studies Moscow, October 17-18, 2002 The fact that by admission of Slovenia the borders of the European Union almost reached Zagreb, repeatedly provoked a discussion about the reasons of lagging behind of Croatia. The author observes the basic reasons (beside the imposed war) in political atmosphere which was unacceptable for international community. Such atmosphere resulted in big mistakes of the entire (Bosnia and Herzegovina) and economic policy (tycoon privatization and the wrong stabilization level). Unacceptable political atmosphere is also shown by the fact that Croatian and Slovenian economists commonly prepared the starting bases of transition. Slovenia consistently implemented this concept, while Croatia completely ignored it. The second wave of democratization (at the beginning of century) created political atmosphere more acceptable for international community and more adequate for economic development. Beside certain progress in economic sphere especially expressed are shifts in direction of somewhat faster integration into the European Union. In this sense the author was also encouraged by the President of the European Commission Romano Prodi at the XIII th World Congress of economists in Lisbon, September 9 to 13, 2002. * D.

WHAT ENABLES DISTANCE EDUCATION IN CROATIA? Croatia started the curricular reform in school education in 2016, and since 2017 the reform has been particularly focused on improving students’ and teachers’ digital competences as well as equipping schools. Already in 2017 we started a project of introducing digital literacy to various subjects and after-school programs by using microcomputers. In cooperation with the Institute for the Development and Youth Innovation, CARNET acquired 45.000 microcomputers for 6th grade primary school students with the aim to develop students’ digital competences, foster creativity and innovation and an interdisciplinary approach to the use of information technologies. Furthermore, Information Technology was introduced in 2018 as a compulsory subject in the 5th and 6th grades of primary school. To prepare for the introduction of the new subject, additional teachers were employed, specialised classrooms were equipped, and teachers were trained to implement new curricula focused on learning programming. In addition to that, in 2018 the regulations on textbooks were changed to provide for budgetary funding of digitalised textbooks and learning materials.

The study used focus group methodology to gain deeper understanding of the thought process students go through from the moment they start thinking about colleges, to the moment they make their final decision. The results of this research show that high school students in Croatia tend to start thinking more seriously about where they will continue their education in the third and, more often in their fourth (last) grade of high school.

  • Organisation of the Education System and of Its Structure
    Published on Eurydice (https://eacea.ec.europa.eu/national-policies/eurydice) Croatian education system provides education services at pre-school, primary school, high-school and higher education levels, as well as for adult education, so as to enable every user to develop his/her potential optimally, aiming at their personal development and entry into the labour market, including their preparedness for lifelong learning. Education in Croatia is available to all, under equal conditions, in line with their capabilities. Compulsory education is free of charge, as stipulated by law, while private schools and colleges/polytechnics can be established in accordance with the relevant legal framework. Universities are guaranteed autonomy and they can independently decide on their structure, organisation and operation (Articles 66 and 67 of the Croatian Constitution). Croatian education system is centrally managed by the Ministry of Science, Education and Sports (MSES) [1]. Besides MSES, other national public bodies involved in the regulation, development and quality control of the educational sector in Croatia are Education and Teacher Training Agency [2], Agency for Vocational Education and Training [3], Agency for Science and Higher Education [4], Agency for Mobility and EU Programmes [5] and National Center for External Evaluation of Education [6]. In line with the aforementioned, Croatian education system consists of the following levels: early childhood and pre-school education, elementary education, high school education and higher education. Pre-school education Pre-school education in Croatia includes education and care about pre-school children. It is carried out through programmes of care, education, healthcare, meals and social care for children aged from 6 months to school age children.

The aim of this thesis and accompanying research is to choose three serious, relevant, scientific and academic articles in Croatian, translate and analyse them in English. The thesis is structured in the following way: after a brief introduction there is an article, i.e. a source text in Croatian, followed by the translation and an analysis of the translation. The purpose of the analyses is to explain the process of translating and to reveal different types of problems and challenges which were encountered. After the third translation analysis there is a conclusion, where the entire thesis is summed up and assessed. A bibliography, i.e. the sources, is included at the very end of the B.A. thesis.

  • Map 20 Pannonia-Dalmatia Compiled by P. Kos and M. Šašel Kos, 1995
    Map 20 Pannonia-Dalmatia Compiled by P. Kos and M. Šašel Kos, 1995 Introduction The map covers very heterogeneous landscapes ranging from the Adriatic coast to the Alps, and from the mountainous interiors of the provinces of Dalmatia and Pannonia with their rich ore sources to the Pannonian plain. The current state of research–to some degree reflected by the map–is uneven. Thus the Carinthian province of Austria (Piccottini 1989), Slovenia (ANSl 1975), and Bosnia and Herzegovina (ALBiH) are better explored topographically than other regions where no compilations of archaeological sites have been published. The results of topographical research conducted over the past thirty years by Bojanovski (1988) are of great importance. Much antiquarian and topographic information has been collected for Histria and Venetia by Vedaldi Iasbez (1994), with particular attention to Greek and Latin writers. Similarly substantial collection and assessment of data for the Dalmatian coast and islands are provided by Kozličić (1990). TIR Tergeste (1961), TIR Aquincum (1968) and TIR Naissus (1976) are also of value for the areas they cover, though not always reliable. Mócsy’s work (RE Suppl. 9 Pannonia) remains fundamental for the province of Pannonia. As Kozličić (1986) has shown, since antiquity geomorphological changes along the Dalmatian and Istrian coasts have been minimal, if only because no very large rivers flow into the Adriatic; the map therefore retains the modern coastline. The coast of the eastern Adriatic is, however, sinking at a minimal rate annually (Šegota 1976). Geographic names by no means always appear in the nominative in the Greek and Latin sources; the point applies especially to ItAnt, ItBurd, TabPeut and GeogRav, which often represent the only evidence.
