Through international experience students acquire new knowledge and skills, thus becoming a valuable potential resource for the recovery of the Croatian economy. However, it is not clear whether, after having completed their studies, their greater competitiveness and new perspectives generate a greater tendency to stay in Croatia or to look for a job abroad. In this paper, on a sample of 118 students who study economics, we investigate emigration tendencies and attitudes related to them as well as international experience as possible predictors of emigration tendencies. Results reveal that 20% of students indicate a tendency to emigrate, 30% are undecided and 50% do not indicate a tendency to emigrate. Students who hold a more negative general attitude towards Croatia and who perceive the total circumstances in a foreign country (pull factors) to be more attractive, are more willing to emigrate. When predicting emigration tendencies with individual push–pull factors, results indicate that the strongest predictor is job opportunities. Students who assess job opportunities as being more attractive abroad than in Croatia, who hold a more negative attitude towards Croatia and who have more international experience are more willing to emigrate. Therefore, an important strategy for keeping young highly skilled people with international experience is by creating job opportunities for them.

This essay reveals some yet unexplored pages in the history of Russian-Slovenian relations. Based on materials in the Russian and Slovenian archives, the main features of the trips of Russian peasants, who were trainees of the Russian grain company, to practice in Slovenian lands are reconstructed. These visits were carried out with the aim of studying progressive methods of agriculture, which they would then be able to effectively apply at home. The organizer from the Slovenian side was the liberal politician and long-term župan (lord mayor) of Ljubljana, Ivan Hribar. Parties of Russian interns were sent to Slovenian lands in 1909 and 1912 and many of the trainees stayed abroad for one or two years. The main focus of this study is the analysis of the feedback of Russian peasants about their work and study in a foreign country and their impressions of the Slovenes. Reviews by the Russian peasants who were dispatched in 1909 were more favourable than those sent on the 1912 trip, which was for various reasons less successful. In general, the trainees who remained in the Slovenian lands for a long time acquired a lot of new knowledge and skills, which could then be successfully applied in Russia. Slovenes as a people, their culture, and their economic organization made a good impression on the Russian peasants. In addition, it was the peasants' first encounter with another world, and being close to the Slovenian people in language, culture, and traditions contributed to the expansion of their common horizons.

As machine-readable data comes to play an increasingly important role in everyday life, researchers find themselves with rich resources for studying society. The novel methods and tools needed to work with such data require not only new knowledge and skills, but also a new way of thinking about best research practices. This book critically reflects on the role and usefulness of big data, challenging overly optimistic expectations about what such information can reveal, introducing practices and methods for its analysis and visualisation, and raising important political and ethical questions regarding its collection, handling, and presentation.

The article considers the problem of teaching the native language. The main factors affecting the effectiveness of teaching the Kazakh language are identified. One of them is teacher training, and the second is the effective coordination of students' activities depending on the purpose of the lesson, especially the content of knowledge offered for teaching. The article also emphasizes the importance of identifying teaching methods that are consistent with the content of students' knowledge and skills. Thus, the authors of the article argue that "new knowledge must be associated with old knowledge." And also the article discusses the assimilation of grammatical knowledge, including the study of tenses of the verb. The verb is one of the most complex aspects of morphology. The article shows the modern methods of teaching the tenses of the verb. The revealed methods show that the accumulated language rules are not only knowledge, but also contribute to the development of cognitive abilities.

Aside from academics suggesting that low-physical-attractive prisoners may face difficulty reentering the labour market: permitting employers to access criminal history records aggravates the situation. The current study aims to alleviate this discrimination by generating more beauty premiums to prisoners through cosmetic surgery. The choice experiments (CEs) on hypothetical cosmetic surgery faces of 18 Thai male prisoners were conducted. In which every choice set, the respondents were required to make a tradeoff between beauty and criminal history records. The results show that cosmetic surgery generates beauty premiums to prisoners in both the formal and informal sectors with the odds ratio or increase of the utility of 1.75 and 1.754, respectively. Contrarily, the criminal history records result in discrimination to prisoners’ employments: decreasing job opportunities by 82.8% and 51% in the formal and informal sectors, respectively. The MWTP values show an additional salary to the cosmetic surgery groups for 2,600 baht approximately in both sectors. Besides contributing to the literature, the current study sheds light on the importance of physical appearance and criminal history records as one of the main barriers to prisoners’ re-entry. The findings could serve as new knowledge for policymakers to improve the success rate of prisoners’ reintegration.

The article analyzes the experience of organizing project activities in teaching educational robotics to bachelors, future teachers of informatics. The main methodological possibilities of using this method for the formation of basic competencies are considered: the foundations of design, programming, the ability to work with the online constructor TRIK Studio, as well as the development of skills for collective research activities. The article formulates the stages of work on the project and the functions of its participants within the discipline «Educational robotics». The analysis of projects completed by students in the online constructor TRIK Studio was also carried out: the movement of the robot in a circle, along a line and along a maze. Based on the experience of using project activities, certain aspects of the implementation of project activities in teaching students have been established. Project activity allows you to implement your ideas and analyze the results of research, i.e., acquire new knowledge and skills that cannot be acquired using theoretical teaching methods.

SummaryThe effects on patients, volunteers and staff of using volunteer adolescents in adolescent group therapy are examined. From 40 candidates eight volunteers were selected and oriented to the group process. Four volunteers and four patients were placed in each of two groups, and eight patients were placed in the third group. Patients and volunteers were aware of their identities in the first group session. Attendance in the groups with volunteers was better than in the group without. The volunteers themselves gained new knowledge and skills, and their presence was even helpful to the group leaders.
