Features of preparation of future teachers for carrying out of interactive training technologies in the course of the organization of leisure activity in the conditions of rest in summer camps are examined. It is noted that various forms of leisure activities in the summer camp can support the emotional health of children, overcome their own shortcomings, form the will and character. Advice and methods for conducting the case method are given: selection of material (material should be selected in such a way as to reflect the problems that participants may face in real life); the availability of alternatives (the situation around which the discussion takes place should have been sufficiently diverse and have several solutions). The advantages of the case method are described: realism (the use of this method significantly complemented the theoretical aspects of the problem); pressure reduction (case method gave a unique opportunity to study complex or emotionally significant issues in a safe training atmosphere, not in real life, with real threats and risks in case of making the wrong decision); active interaction (communicative nature of the method provided an opportunity to provide a quick but very important assessment of the issues under discussion and the proposed solution). It is proved that interactive pedagogical technology in the process of organizing leisure activities of a person (as a set of a series of consecutive actions aimed at achieving a result) was based on the principles of voluntariness, positivity, responsibility, partnership.

Abstract. Research shows that engagement in leisure activities promotes well-being among older adults. The objective of the current study was to examine the relationship between subjective well-being (flourishing) and leisure activities (total number of different activities in the previous year) in a sample of older adults in Croatia, thereby considering the variables of sex, marital status, financial status, and self-perceived health. The differences in the examined variables between the groups of older adults who reported to be engaged in new activities with those who did not were also examined. The sample of N = 169 older adults aged 60 years and above was drawn from a convenience sample of adult internet users in Croatia. Participants reported their self-perceived health and the number of leisure activities they engaged in over the previous year as well as completing the Flourishing Scale. Hierarchical regression analyses indicated that older adults who were engaged in more various leisure activities, who perceived better financial status, and who were married reported higher levels of flourishing. A comparison of the two groups of older adults with and without engagement in leisure activities showed that those engaged in at least one leisure activity were more likely to be women, reported higher levels of flourishing, and perceived their own financial status as better. This study indicated that engaging in leisure activities in later life might provide beneficial effects for the well-being of older adults.

Rationale. This study aims to investigate the correlation between the available leisure activity time and life satisfaction of the healthy elderly and the factors affecting them. Method. For the analysis, data from the 2014 Time Use Survey (2014TUS) published by Statistics Korea (KOSTAT) was used. This study classified the detailed activities of 9228 subjects, based on the data in 2014TUS, and analyzed the differences in time use for occupation domains by age group. Results. It was found that a greater amount time used for outdoor leisure activities yielded a higher life satisfaction value. Differences were found in time use by occupation domains between younger and older groups. These showed higher life satisfaction for those with spouses, regular full-time jobs, higher education, and better health. Conclusion. Based on these results, in order to improve the quality of life (QoL) for older adults, it is necessary to develop various leisure programs that require dynamic physical activities and to prepare alternative policies at the national level to promote participation in leisure activities by older adults. This study will provide occupational therapists (OTs) with data they can use to help older adults who have difficulty in time usage through time management intervention to improve their life satisfaction and QoL.

Abstract Objectives To examine the long-term association between leisure activities in adulthood and cognitive function in old age while recognizing gender differences in activity profiles. Methods The sample included 340 cognitively healthy twins enrolled in the OCTO-Twin Study, a longitudinal study on cognitive aging. Leisure activity was measured in midlife and cognitive function in old age (mean age 83). Leisure activities covered the domains of domestic, intellectual–cultural, and self-improvement activities. The cognitive assessments comprised 5 measurement occasions (2-year intervals) covering verbal ability, spatial ability, memory, and speed. The association between leisure activity and cognitive function was estimated separately for the genders using growth curve models, adjusting for age and education. Results Men and women had the same level of total leisure activity but differed in activity profiles and in the associations between activity and cognitive function. Higher engagement in self-improvement among men was related to higher level of cognitive functioning. Among women, intellectual–cultural activity was related to better verbal ability and memory. Concerning trajectories of cognitive function, domestic activity among men was related to less decline in speed, whereas for women it was related to steeper decline in spatial ability and memory. Further, higher intellectual–cultural activity among women was related to steeper decline in memory. Discussion Cognitively stimulating activities (i.e., self-improvement and intellectual–cultural), might increase cognitive reserve whereas less cognitively stimulating activities (i.e., domestic) do not. Gender differences should be considered when examining lifestyle factors in relation to cognitive aging.

The COVID-19 pandemic has led to a reduction in leisure activities involving human contact. Social isolation has increased, particularly amongst vulnerable individuals with a fragile support network, as is the case with young people who have left care. The aim of the present research was to identify socio-educational proposals and interventions implemented during the pandemic pertaining to leisure as a form of promoting social inclusion of these young people. To this end, a qualitative study was carried out in which twenty semi-structured interviews were conducted with young people who had left care system, in addition to fifteen interviews with professionals working with this group when delivering socio-educational interventions. Discourse analysis revealed that isolation due to the health crisis had greater repercussions in normalised settings in which leisure activity was reduced with this increasing risk of social inclusion amongst these young people. Proposals and experiences emerging from this setting provide evidence that socio-educational interventions targeting leisure facilitate social inclusion. In this sense, future lines of research are suggested to optimise the outcomes of socio-educational interventions within this group.

Educational Task

The use of case technology in the formation of natural science, in particular chemical literacy, in chemistry lessons through the environmental competencies of students, is one of the effective tools. One of the requirements of modern education - the formation of competencies and the case method - is an effective way to implement this educational task. This method is based on the problem and its solution, allowing, thus, implementing several pedagogical issues: «training», «education», «development». At the same time, each student is given the opportunity to increase their cognitive interest, realize their potential and learn how to apply the acquired knowledge in real life conditions.

Teaching Pedagogies

Traditional methods of teaching law such as the lecture method, Socratic method or the case method has become the predominant teaching pedagogies in most law schools. Emphasis is on teaching law students the blackletter law. However, when law students complete their formal undergraduate studies and move on to practice law, they face the crisis of being unable to cerebral the black letter law to real life situations. Applying doctrinal analysis and the observation of law teaching in Malaysia from the authors own experience as a law lecturer, the author explicates in this chapter that the reason behind this crisis is because the traditional methods merely imparts the knowledge of law to students but does not stimulate and ignite the cognitive skills which should be the ultimatum of teaching law students. Traditional methods of teaching law should be reformed. Law students should be taught to apprehend the law to real life situations or problems using the cognitive apprenticeship method. In other words, putting the learner in the driver's seat.

Leisure participation contributes to the health and wellbeing of children with and without physical disabilities. In the present cross-sectional study, we aimed to assess the influence of child and family factors on leisure activity participation of children with cerebral palsy (CP) aged 8-18 years. A convenience sample of 69 participants with CP (M age = 12.75 years, SD = 2.95; 45 males) responded to the Children’s Assessment of Participation and Enjoyment questionnaire to report participation diversity, frequency, companies, environment and enjoyment in leisure activities. From these questionnaires, we used descriptive statistics to summarize overall participation, two activity domains (formal and informal) and five activity types (recreational, social, active physical, skill-based, and self-improvement). Regression analysis assessed child and family factors’ influence on participation. On average, children with CP were involved in 21 leisure activities in the last four months. Within activity types, social and recreational activities were the most frequently reported. Participation in physical and skill-based activities was low. Overall children with CP experienced high enjoyment with engagement in leisure activities. Collectively, factors of age, cognitive function, gross motor function, and mother’s education level predicted 33% of activity diversity and 30% of activity frequency. We concluded that children with CP show diverse leisure activity participation and high leisure activity enjoyment. Health, education and sports professionals should consider the child’s functional profile and family context when promoting participation.
