It is with great pleasure that we invite you to submit papers to be included in a special issue titled “Modern Methods of Assessment for Young Learners: research perspectives”. Assessment has been placed at the center of the research and teaching activity over the last decades highlighting the need for employing tools of alternative and authentic assessment in the classrooms. According to Moon (2000), “assessment seems to be something that most teachers spend a lot of time doing. So it is important to consider what it is, why we do it, what kinds of information it provides, and the decisions that might be taken based on that information.”(p. 148). Thus, this special issue aspires to provide a collection of original research-papers which will facilitate an understanding of the multidimensional context of assessment, focusing on assessment methods implemented within young learners’ (4-11 years old) classrooms in the 21st century.

Dear readers!It is our great pleasure to present to you the first regular issue of the Croatian Journal of Education in 2021. This issue brings ten papers by authors from Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, South Korea, Serbia, Spain and Turkey. Regarding the categorisation of the papers, this time we present four original research papers, three preliminary communications and three review papers. As previously, the featured papers advocate the thematic diversity of the concerns in the field of education. Furthermore, the papers present innovative, creative and multidisciplinary approaches to researching the issues of education. Through the research results and their interpretation, the presented works offer scientific explanations and understandings as well as predictions and control of the research phenomena in the field of education. Thereby we further develop the interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary direction of the Croatian Journal of Education. In this regard, we still wish you much success in your creative and innovative scientific projects, and we are looking forward to many more of your high-quality papers in 2021. --- Dragi čitatelji!Veliko nam je zadovoljstvo predstaviti vam prvi redovni broj Hrvatskog časopisa za odgoj i obrazovanje u 2021. godini. U ovom broju donosimo deset radova autora iz Bosne i Hercegovine, Hrvatske, Južne Koreje, Srbije, Španjolske i Turske. U pogledu kategorizacije radova, ovaj put predstavljamo četiri izvorna znanstvena rada te tri prethodna priopćenja i tri pregledna rada. Kao i do sada, u prikazanim radovima zastupamo tematsku različitost problematike odgoja i obrazovanja. Također, u radovima su zastupljeni inovativni, kreativni i multidisciplinarni metodološki pristupi istraživanja problematike odgoja i obrazovanja. Rezultatima istraživanja i njihovim interpretacijama, u predstavljenim prilozima ovoga broja, ponuđene su nove i inovativne deskripcije, klasifikacije, definicije, znanstvena objašnjenja i razumijevanja te predikcija i kontrola istraživanih fenomena odgoja i obrazovanja. Time i dalje razvijamo interdisciplinarnost i multidisciplinarnost Hrvatskog časopisa za odgoj i obrazovanje. Stoga nam je iznimno drago što na ovaj način predstavljamo nove znanstvene doprinose istraživanja autora predstavljenih priloga. U tom pogledu, i dalje vam želimo mnogo uspjeha u vašim kreativnim i inovativnim istraživanjima i znanstvenim projektima te se radujemo vašim novim kvalitetnim radovima u 2021. godini.

Abstract In situ and operando spectroscopic methods play a fundamental role in a variety of different fields of modern science. In particular, as energy and environmental science have become increasingly important recently, the need of in situ and operando spectroscopic methods has also increased significantly. Therefore, we felt it was time to have a special issue focused on such techniques and for which the aim is ‘to merge the research communities investigating catalytic and (photo)electrochemical interfaces with different in situ/operando spectroscopic techniques, to share recent results, experimental methods, and future perspectives’, as we reported in the scope of this special issue. With its 23 original research papers and 2 topical reviews, spanning from heterogeneous catalysis to photoelectrochemistry, we believe that the outcome of this special issue fulfills the aforementioned aim.

This chapter functions as an introduction to the special issue on Language and Health Online, which features 10 original research papers. It reviews the results of the papers and the joint emerging themes: the impact of technical and social affordances of computer-mediated interaction; discovering an emic perspective of health issues, uncovering health ideologies, and the theme of patient empowerment; the construction of identities, the construction of shared experiences, and the use of narratives. The diverse methodologies that are employed are introduced and a case is made for an open, versatile and mixed methodology when researching language and health online.
