  • 2018 Danube:Future Interdisciplinary School (Dis)
    www.danubefuture.eu [email protected] 2018 DANUBE:FUTURE INTERDISCIPLINARY SCHOOL (DIS) Project Management and Entrepreneurship for Sustainable Development of the Regions in the Danube River Basin University of Ruse, Bulgaria September 9th – 16th, 2018 Call for application Regional development is an important topic for the countries in the Danube River Basin. It aligns with the priorities of the European territorial and cohesion policy and the European neighbourhood policy. The regions within the Danube River Basin are characterized by significant disproportions in their economic and social development. Some of them, e.g. those in the Lower Danube Region, are disadvantaged in comparison with the regions in the Upper Danube, but they have a good touristic potential with their unique natural assets and cultural heritage. The 2018DIS will familiarize participants with the specificity of regional developments within the Danube Macro-Region, as well as with the strengths and weaknesses of selected regions in the Danube River Basin to identify opportunities for cooperation in the area of entrepreneurship and project management. The DIS programme focuses on the theory and practice of project management and entrepreneurship as possible tools for overcoming the disparity between the regions in the EUSDR. The Danube:Future Interdisciplinary School (DIS) 2018 offers PhD-students and young scientists from member universities of the Danube Rector’s Conference (DRC) and the Alps-Adriatic Rector’s Conference (AARC) the opportunity to discuss the abovementioned issues and to develop research proposals within this broad context. The Danube:Future Interdisciplinary School offers a well- coordinated program of high-profile lectures, methodological inputs regarding interdisciplinarity and trans-disciplinarity, thematic excursions and professionally supervised working phases for writing project proposals.

Abstract The publication analyzes the peculiar and dynamic educational work on the discipline ‘Around the world’, studied in the first and second grades of the initial educational degree in the Republic of Bulgaria. It is a continuation of the educational field ‘Around the world’ in the kindergarten. It takes into consideration the unique conditions in the personal development of the students with their specific experience and the degree of perception and understanding of the information about the objective reality, and their orientation in natural and social phenomena. Through its pedagogical impact on the subject, the teacher takes the life experiences of the children from his state of preschool and pre-theoretical fragmentation and unsystematisation to cognitive and intellectual readiness to master the social sciences at the middle course.

    International Society of communication and Development among universities www.europeansp.org Spectrum (Educational Research Service),ISSN:0740-7874 Organization Of The Educational Process And Methods And Means To Enhance The Students Training Assoc. Prof. Asen Asenov; Prof. Velizara Pencheva; Assoc. Prof. Daniel Lyubenov University of Ruse, 8 Studentska str., Ruse, 7017, Bulgaria, Abstract This study was done on the example of training of students in degree programmes in the field of transport. One of the main problems indicated by employers, related to recruiting students to work, is their practical training obtained in universities. Therefore, increasing the practical training of students is an important part of their education. It can be done jointly by training in a real practical environment. An evaluation of the practical training of students was made. The results show that the interest of students in learning increases, and thus their practical training. © 2016 The Authors.
