Adolescents perceive the Internet as a natural communication medium and a tool for processing information. They can access it from a mobile phone, personal computer and many other portable devices. The area of social networks, which is a common part of the adolescents’ life and style, has become the phenomenon of the young generation, but is also associated with a number of risks. The research analysed the impact of the use of modern information and communication technologies on the behaviour of six adolescent psychiatric patients. The specially designed qualitative research and analyses of technical documentation, interviews and observations have been used to compile case studies of people hospitalized due to the worsening of their mental condition. Informants showed symptoms of overuse of the Internet, or even addiction. In the online environment, they were looking for trust, friends, role models, advice, support and praise. The high number of their virtual contacts sharply contrasted with the low activity in their real life. Using the Internet intensively, they were compensating for the unfulfilled needs in their family and school life, ventilating their worries, fears and psychological pain. They got into a vicious circle, which, without expert help, steadily kept intensifying. A harmonious family background, good environment at school and classroom, actual good friends and adequate leisure time play an essential role in dealing with the overuse of or dependence on online activities. It is important that the adolescent experiences success, reward, and positive motivation. Appropriate psychotherapy and counselling services may help in cases of such problems.

V příspěvku představujeme teoretická východiska, která byla použita jako podklad pro praktickou část diplomové práce, tj. výzkum, který byl zaměřen na ověřování dovednosti práce s textem u romských žáků na prvním stupni ZŠ na vybraných brněnských základních školách. Výsledky výzkumu byly zveřejněny na studentské vědecké konferenci v roce 2016 a rovněž budou součástí 4. čísla časopisu Komenský v červnu 2017. Nejprve stručně představujeme faktografické údaje o Romech žijících v ČR a přibližujeme pohled na vzdělávání a hodnotu vzdělání v tradiční romské rodině. Dále poukazujeme na faktory, které ovlivňují romské dětství, a vlivy působící na romského žáka žijícího v sociálně vyloučené lokalitě, jež mají vliv na jeho rozvoj, a to jak v obecné rovině, tak i v rovině rozvoje schopností a dovedností potřebných k práci s textem.

Letos jsem se stala poprvé třídní učitelkou. Ve své třídě mám kluka s autismem, budu ho v celém dokumentu jmenovat Honzou, aby se z něj stal konkrétní kluk, a nejen fiktivní postava. Honzovi je 11 let, diagnózy střídá po celou dobu školní docházky. Momentálně jsme u jeho čtvrté, která je rysy dětského autismu. Přestoupil na druhý stupeň se svými spolužáky, ti s ním chodí všech pět let studia, já ho znám pouze tři měsíce. Jeho hlavní projev je, že nemluví. Na otázku spíš něco ukáže, než že by slovně odpověděl. A velice se usmívá. Takže neustále vypadá, že je vše v pořádku.

Stories have a particular value in promoting inclusive values and are an excellent medium that can effectively and subtly point out desirable behaviour to students. The aim of the paper was to: (1) examine teachers’ attitudes towards using thematic stories in classrooms, (2) examine their experience in using stories, and (3) establish the correlation between the factors, and their correlation with the sociodemographic data.The sample contains 101 class teachers who are employed in four counties of the Republic of Croatia. Two scales of good metric characteristics were used: Teachers’ Attitude towards Using Stories in Classroom Scale (α = 0.820) and Teachers’ Experience in Using Stories Scale, with two factors: Stories' Positive Influence on Student Behaviour (α = 0.952) and Using Stories during a Classroom Meeting (α = 0.836).Teachers have positive attitudes towards using stories in classrooms, they often use different activities to promote inclusive values during classroom meetings and they have experienced a positive impact of a story on children’s behaviour. Teachers with more experience of the stories' having positive impact on children’s behaviour are more likely to use activities that promote inclusive values in the classroom, which is not related to the attitude or the sociodemographic characteristics of the teacher. Also, a positive correlation was established between a teacher’s self-perceived awareness of thematic stories thanks to consultation with professional experts, conversations with colleagues and reading professional literature, and the teacher’s experience of the stories’ positive influence on children’s behaviour.To summarise, teachers consider stories to be pervasive in educational work and recognize the value of their use. Recommendations are made towards developing teachers’ competence, at the formal level of initial and ongoing professional development, in the use of stories for the regulation of student behaviour and the formation of inclusive classroom environment.

The visual dominates over the text – modern man homo videns prefers the image, which is quicker and easier for him to assimilate, it also has more significance than the word. The image, like the text, carries its own message, creating a way of knowing and perceiving a given reality (Szpunar, 2008; Sztompka, 2005). School textbooks contain many visual elements, providing a separate and additional source of information. Disability and people with disabilities are presented visually very rarely. Nevertheless, it is possible to establish the ways and messages of depicting disability in school textbooks and to determine what students, including students with disabilities, can learn about disability from images in school textbooks. This article presents the results of a study of this issue. It is part of the results from a larger research project entitled. ’The (non-)presence list. Disability in school textbooks’, by Dr Marta Sałkowska, Magdalena Kocejko, Magda Szarota and Angelika Greniuk, implemented by Collegium Civitas in 2021.

The museum plays an important educational role, providing knowledge and information while visiting museum collections. It is also a meeting space for people who have similar interests, contributing to building their networks and cultural capital. Today, the museum, like every cultural institution, has faced new challenges in the face of the emergence of modern technologies, which on the one hand open the museum to people with various types of disabilities, and on the other, constitute a new reason for excluding those for whom these technologies are not available. The law has imposed on public entities, including the museum, the need to adapt digital solutions to the standards of accessibility for people with disabilities. This means that today the museum offer more often includes virtual tours or solutions based on modern technologies that facilitate sightseeing. Our article shows how people with disabilities evaluate the solutions that facilitate accessibility introduced at the Princes Czartoryski Museum in Krakow. The interviews allowed to recreate the activities of the museum are most appreciated by the respondents with disabilities, from where they learn about the collection and what potential they see in new technologies used in museums to advertise events and / or share the collection.
