There is a lack of research in the field of monitoring artistic creativity in secondary schools in Slovenia, so a study was conducted on the population of 81 pupils of different secondary school programs in Slovenia, aged 16 years, where we monitored artistic creative abilities. We analysed the achievements of pupils in terms of common artistic abilities, and also examined differences between groups of factors of artistic creativity, which encourage and enable artistic creativity, as well as in terms of differences in individual factors of artistic creativity. The analysis was aimed at identifying the differences between different secondary school programs. The results show that pupils in the art secondary school program generally lead the way. However, the pupils of the general secondary school program achieved better results in the factor of artistic originality. Such a result confirms that good results can be achieved in the field of the development of artistic creativity also in general secondary school programs with the appropriate art pedagogical work. Key words: artistic creativity, creativity, factors of artistic creativity, pupils

This analysis introduces the pedagogy of research and questioning the world within the Math classrooms at secondary schools in Argentina by using Research and Study Paths (RSP). The RSP have been proposed by Chevallard in the Anthropologic Theory of Didactic (ATD) to face the mechanistic model of teaching mathematics in secondary school (Chevallard, 2004). The RSP has been previously conceived as part of this research and could enable to cover the syllabus of the three last years of the secondary level (students aged 14 to 18 years old). The RSP has been carried out in courses intentionally selected by the researcher. Two implementations have been performed once a year during three years; with 163 students participating in the whole research. The results of introducing RSP into the classroom, the characteristics of the Mathematical Organization (MO) and the advantages and disadvantages of teaching mathematics based on the pedagogy of research and questioning the world are described in the present work. Key words: functions, pedagogy of research and questioning the world, polynomial functions of second degree, research and study paths, secondary school.

A survey was conducted of persons responsible for making undergraduate admission policies at Ontario universities to ascertain their preferences and expectations for provincial examinations. Fifty-eight individuals, at least two from each university, responded to a series of questions by telephone interview or questionnaire. Strong support was expressed for the reintroduction of provincial examinations for mathematics and first language (English or français) courses in the final year of the secondary school program. Most respondents rejected the use of scores on province-wide examinations for rating secondary schools and adjusting school marks. Instead, they expressed a preference for having applicants report both teacher-assigned course marks and provincial examination scores.

The article analyzes the understanding of numerical expressions in primary and secondary schools. Algebraic education begins in primary school by numerical expressions calculations and transformations tasks. Understanding of these tasks remains important later while doing any of expressions, equations and inequalities tasks. The numerical expressions errors made by students show learning difficulties and inadequate understanding of concepts. This article presents 120 I–VI classes students numerical expressions solutions mistakes qualitative continent analysis. It revealed such problems as misunderstanding ideas of positional decimal counting system, constructive learning of rules, the lack of practical experience in transformating numerical expressions. There are proposed possiblities to improve the situation by paying more attention to decimal structure and the positions of numbers in primary classes, multipurpose numerical expressions analysis, the increasing of motivation to solving numerical expressions. Key words: errors of numerical expressions, links between arithmetic and algebra, primary and secondary school.

Technical subjects should include creative activities in order to foster the development of technical creativity in talented students. Talent should be regarded as a potential or a characteristic, which a certain student possesses. Creativity can be described as an activity through which such talent shows. The research on the correlation between technical talent and technical creativity included 109 students aged 11 to 15 years, in two Slovenian lower secondary schools. Students were tested by two modified tests on technical creativity and technical talent. The results show that a positive correlation between technical talent and technical creativity exists. It depends on the gender, age and closing assessment of the student. Females displayed a higher level of technical creativity in comparison to males; however, the males achieved higher scores in the technical talent test. The higher the closing assessment and the age of the students, the higher was the level of their technical talent and technical creativity. Key words: basic education, technical talent, technical creativity, technique and technology.

Summary The German Pupils Academy (Deutsche Schüler-Akademie) is a summer-school program for highly gifted secondary-school students. Three types of program evaluation were conducted. Input evaluation confirmed the participants as intellectually highly gifted students who are intrinsically motivated and interested to attend the courses offered at the summer school. Process evaluation focused on the courses attended by the participants as the most important component of the program. Accordingly, the instructional approaches meet the needs of highly gifted students for self-regulated and discovery oriented learning. The product or impact evaluation was based on a multivariate social-cognitive framework. The findings indicate that the program contributes to promoting motivational and cognitive prerequisites for transforming giftedness into excellent performances. To some extent, the positive effects on students' self-efficacy and self-regulatory strategies are due to qualities of the learning environments established by the courses.

Job (Ayyūb) is a byword for patience in the Islamic tradition, notwithstanding only six Qur'anic verses are devoted to him, four in Ṣād (vv.41-4), and two in al-Anbiyā' (vv.83-4), and he is mentioned on only two other occasions, in al-Ancām (v.84) and al-Nisā' (v.163). In relation to the space devoted to him, he could be accounted a ‘lesser’ prophet, nevertheless his significance in the Qur'an is unambiguous. The impact he makes is achieved in a number of ways. One is through the elaborate intertext transmitted from the Companions and Followers, and recorded in the exegetic tradition. Another is the way in which his role and charisma are highlighted by the prophets in whose company he is presented, and the shifting emphases of each of the sūras in which he appears. Yet another is the wider context created by these sūras in which key words and phrases actualize a complex network of echoes and resonances that elicit internal and transsūra associations focusing attention on him from various perspectives. The effectiveness of this presentation of him derives from the linguistic genius of the Qur'an which by this means triggers a vivid encounter with aspects of the rhythm of divine revelation no less direct than that of visual iconography in the Western Tradition.
