3 3 PROMOCIJA EVROPSKIH TOČK ZA NADARJENE


V Centru za raziskovanje in spodbujanje nadarjenosti (CRSN) na Pedagoški fakulteti Univerze v Ljubl- jani povezujemo znanja, izkušnje in ideje raziskovalcev in praktikov s področja nadarjenosti, izvajamo različne razvojno-raziskovalne, izobraževalne in svetovalne dejavnosti ter si s svojim delom prizadevamo za promocijo nadarjenosti v smislu spodbujanja kakovosti življenja nadarjenih ter v skladu z vizijo Strategije razvoja Slovenije.

Pomemben del promocije skrbi za nadarjene CRSN izvaja na mednarodni ravni. V tem okviru je julija 2015 CRSN prejel pomembno evropsko akreditacijo, s katero je skupaj še s trinajstimi podobnimi evropskimi centri v Avstriji, Belgiji, Italiji, Litvi, Nemčiji, Švici in Turčiji ter na Češkem, Irskem, Madžarskem, Nizozemskem in na Slovaškem postal eden od centrov European Talent Support Network – EUROPEAN TALENT CENTRE SLOVENIA.

Akreditacija predstavlja inovativno iniciativo Evropskega odbora za visoko sposobne (ECHA), da na ev- ropski ravni v mednarodno sodelovanje poveže ljudi in ustanove, ki se na različne načine – raziskovalno, strokovno, družbeno – ukvarjajo s problematiko nadarjenih oziroma talentiranih. Koristi, ki izhajajo iz te akreditacije, so večplastne: hitrejše in učinkovitejše informiranje, tematsko povezovanje, strokovno delovanje in znanstveno raziskovanje ter optimizacija intelektualnih in finančnih virov znotraj posamezne države in na mednarodnem nivoju.

Poudariti velja, da je letos opisana akreditacija potekala prvič in da se je s tem pomembnim priznanjem CRSN oziroma Pedagoška fakulteta Univerze v Ljubljani uvrstila med mednarodno prepoznane po- budnike zagovorništva nadarjenih.

Temeljni namen mreženja v okviru European Talent Support Network je sodelovanje in spodbujanje nadarjenih državljanov Evrope v skupno dobro na različnih področjih družbenega udejstvovanja, od skrbi za duševno zdravje do umetnostnih in znanstvenih presežkov ter razvoja, in sicer med akreditiranimi centri (European Talent Centres) ter z vključevanjem novih inštitucij oziroma Točk za nadarjene (Euro- pean Talent Points) preko posameznih centrov.

Center za raziskovanje in spodbujanje nadarjenosti na Pedagoški fakulteti Univerze v Ljubljani (CRSN) je bil ustanovljen leta 2010 z namenom, da bi dopolnil in razširil izobraževalno, raziskovalno in strokovno vizijo, ki ji sledi Pedagoška fakulteta Univerze v Ljubljani na področju spodbujanja razvoja učnih potencialov in zdravega osebnostnega razvoja otrok, mladostnikov in odraslih v okviru vzgojno-izobra- ževalnega procesa in uresničevanja koncepta vseživljenjskega učenja. Člani so visokošolski učitelji in sodelavci, ki svoje znanje prostovoljno delijo in izmenjujejo na različnih področjih svojega delovanja ter tako prispevajo k večplastnemu uresničevanju ciljev CRSN.

V prvih petih letih delovanja je CRSN tako postal prepoznavna inštitucija na področju raziskovanja nadarjenosti in obravnave nadarjenih v domačem in mednarodnem prostoru; njegovi prispevki so vidni na naslednjih področjih:

• raziskovalno: prispeva k razumevanju nadarjenosti in dela z nadarjenimi učenci z izvajanjem sa- mostojnih raziskav (stališča do izobraževanja nadarjenih, socialne kognicije nadarjenih, prepoznavanje nadarjenih, poučevanje nadarjenih, odnos do ustvarjalnosti v vzgoji in izobraževanju) in v sodelovanju z mednarodnimi raziskovalnimi timi (pričakovanja in stereotipi učiteljev, koncepti tekmovalnosti); spodbuja raziskovalno dejavnost študentov v obliki diplomskih nalog na različnih stopnjah študija,

• izobraževalno: člani CRSN, visokošolski učitelji in sodelavci, sproti vključujejo sodobna spoznanja z različnih področij obravnave nadarjenih v izvajanje študijskega procesa na fakulteti ter organizirajo izobraževalne seminarje v okviru stalnega strokovnega spopolnjevanja strokovnih delavcev v vzgoji in izobraževanju; CRSN občasno organizira predavanja mednarodno uveljavljenih strokovnjakov z različnih področij obravnave nadarjenosti za strokovno javnost in študente (Tracy Cross, Jasna Cvet- ković Lay, Kimberley Chandler, Csilla Fuszek, Norbert Jauševec, Todd Lubart, Korado Korlević, Diane Montgomery, Margaret Sutherland, idr.),

• strokovno: ustvarja strokovno učečo se skupnost z organizacijo različnih domačih in mednarodnih strokovnih in znanstvenih srečanj (med njimi imata vidnejše mesto mednarodna ECHA konferenca leta 2014 in 1. mednarodna strokovna konferenca CRSN leta 2015), ki se jih je udeležilo več kot 1500 učitel- jev in drugih strokovnih delancev na področju vzgoje in izobraževanja ter širše, ter z izdajanjem strokovnih publikacij v sodelovanju u Založbo PeF UL (originalna dela in prevodi, tematske številke revij),

• politično: CRSN se aktivno vključuje v razvijanje vzgojno-izobraževalnih politik na področju nadarjenih (Bela knjiga na področju vzgoje in izobraževanja 2011; sodelovanje v Medresorski skupini za pripravo nacionalne strategije za nadarjene, sodelovanje v mednarodnih organizacijah, npr. World Council for Gifted and Talented children, European Council for High Ability in iniciativah, npr. Writ- ten declaration on the support of talents in the European Union, 2013).

The Centre for Research and Promotion of Giftedness at the Faculty of Education, University of Ljublja- na (CRSN) was established in 2010 with a view to complement and extend the educational, research and professional vision, followed by the Faculty of Education, University of Ljubljana, of promoting the learning potential and healthy personality development of children, adolescents and adults within the educational process, and, of implementing the concept of lifelong learning. CRSN is composed of the academic staff members who volunteer to share and exchange their knowledge in various areas of their activities, thus contributing to achieving the multi-layered objectives of CRSN.

In the first five years of its operation, CRSN became a recognized institution in the field of talent research and treatment in the domestic and international arena; its contributions can be seen in the following domains:

• Research: CRSN contributes to the understanding of giftedness and work with gifted students by conducting independent studies (attitudes towards the education of the gifted, social cognitions of the gifted, identifying talent, the gifted education, and the attitude towards creativity in education) and in cooperation with international research teams (expectations and stereotypes of teachers, competition concepts); it promotes research activities of students in the form of diploma theses at various study levels.

• Education: Academic staff members of CRSN regularly integrate modern knowledge from different fields of talent treatment in the teaching process at the Faculty, and organize training seminars in the scope of continuous professional training of education professionals; CRSN occasionally or-


ganizes lectures of internationally renowned experts from various fields of talent treatment for the professional public and students (Tracy Cross, Jasna Cvetković Lay, Kimberley Chandler, Csilla Fuszek, Norbert Jauševec, Todd Lubart, Korado Korlević Diane Montgomery, Margaret Sutherland, et al.).

• Profession: CRSN creates a learning community through the organization of various national and international professional and scientific meetings (the most prominent events were the ECHA In- ternational Conference in 2014 and the first International Scientific Conference of CRSN in 2015), which were attended by more than 1,500 teachers, education professionals and others, and by issuing of the professional publications in cooperation with the Faculty of Education Publishing House of the University of Ljubljana (original works and translations, thematic issues of the jour- nals).

• Political: CRSN is actively involved in developing educational policies in the field of talent (White Paper on Education in the Republic of Slovenia in 2011; it participates in the intersectoral group for drawing up the National Strategy in Gifted Education, in international organizations, e.g. World Council for Gifted and Talented Children, the European Council for High Ability, and in initiatives, e.g. Written declaration on talent support in the European Union, 2013).

POVZETEK

Projekt ATOMI se je začel na Kosovu leta 2011 in se je do sedaj osredotočal na vse učence osnovnih šol in dijake srednjih šol od 8. – 12. razreda, v prihodnjih letih bo zajel vse pred-univerzitetne stopnje.

Projekt ATOMI je bil prvi projekt, katerega cilj je bil prepoznavanje nadarjenih mladih in nudenje različnih za te učence in s temi učenci. V preteklosti nadarjenih učencev in dijakov na Kosovu njihova neposredna okolica (družina, šola, skupnost, itd) ni cenila zaradi njihovega intelektualnega potenciala, ko pa jim je bila nadarjenost priznana v okviru projekta ATOMI, je večina poročala o pozitivni spremembi odnosa do njih (družina, učitelji, skupnost, itd.). Družbeno okolje je začelo dojemati te učence in dijake kot družbeni potencial. Poleg tega so bile dejavnosti projekta ATOMI objavljene v medijih; lahko rečemo, da se je odnos javnosti do te družbene skupine bistveno izboljšal, prav tako pa narašča splošno ozaveščanje o pomenu te družbene kategorije.

Sprva je projekt ATOMI potekal pod okriljem centra ENCOMPASS – Center za psihološke in družbene študije in storitve; leta 2016 je ATOMI zapustil center ENCOMPASS in se preoblikoval v neodvisno institucijo, v zavod ATOMI (Mednarodni inštitut za izjemno inteligenco), ki ima status nevladne organizacije. Zavod ATOMI namerava tudi ustanoviti neprofitno visoko šolo za nadarjene študente.

Cilji organizacije so promocija in spodbujanje uma, razuma, nadarjenosti, ustvarjalnosti in inovativnosti na vseh področjih, prepoznavanje in podpora posameznikom z izjemno inteligenco in nadarjenim ljudem v vseh možnih oblikah in načinih, spodbujanje psiholoških ocen, ter storitve in objave v skladu z najvišjimi znanstvenimi, stro- kovnimi in etičnimi merili.

Za »atomike« ponuja ATOMI obsežen nabor storitev, na primer: psihološko svetovanje za učence / dijake in njihove starše, karierno svetovanje, individualno mentorstvo področnih strokovnjakov, srečanja z znanimi in uspešnimi osebami, dostop do moderne literature, dvotedenski izobraževalno – rekreacijski poletni tabor, obogatitveni program, ki traja 30 sobot (šola +) z nadaljevalnimi tečaji, posredovanje za šolsko napredovanje, različne študijske obiske, znanstveno in laboratorijsko delo, posredovanje za študij in štipendije, itd.

ABSTRACT

ATOMI Project started in Kosovo in 2011, and has so far targeted all the primary and high school students from 8 – 12th grade of Kosovo, and in the coming years it will cover all pre-university grades in Kosovo.

ATOMI project was the first project aiming at the identification of the gifted youth and the provision of various activities for/with these students. In the past the gifted students of Kosovo were not acknowledged for their intellectual potential by their immediate environment (family, school, community, etc.), whereas after being identifies as gifted students by the ATOMI project, most of them reported of the positive change of the attitude towards them (family, teachers, community, etc.). They all started to view these students as having the potential for the society. Also, the ATOMI project activities were published in the media; thus, it can be stated that the attitude of the general public towards this social category has significantly improved, and the public awareness about the importance of this social category is rising.

At first the ATOMI project was conducted within the ENCOMPASS Centre – Centre for Psychological and Social Studies and Services; in 2016 ATOMI left the ENCOMPASS Centre and transformed into an independent institution, i.e. the ATOMI Institute (International Institute for Extraordinary Intelligence), which holds an NGO status. The ATOMI Institute is also going to establish a non-profitable high school for gifted students.

The organization’s aims are promotion and stimulation of the mind, intellect, giftedness, talent, creativity and innovation in all fields, identifying and supporting individuals with extraordinary intelligence, gifted and talented people in all available forms and ways, and promotion of psychological assessments, services and publications in compliance with the highest scientific, professional and ethic criteria.

For the atomists, ATOMI offers a wide range of services, e.g.: psychological counselling for the pupils/students and their parents, career counselling, individual mentoring by field professionals, meetings with famous and successful persons, access to advanced literature, a 2-week educative and recreational summer camp, a 30-Saturday enrichment programme (School+) with advanced courses, mediating for school advancement/promotion, various study visits, scientific and laboratory work, mediating for studies and scholarships, etc.

POVZETEK

Center za razvoj nadarjenih otrok »Bistrić« je bil ustanovljen leta 1995 kot nevladna organizacija, ki deluje na področju posebnih izobraževalnih potreb. Njegov namen je načrtovanje in reševanje učnih izzivov, kar zadeva obogatitve, neodvisne projekte ter spodbujanje razlikovalnih interesov glede na raven fizičnega in kognitivnega razvoja nadarjenega otroka.

Center organizira uporabne dejavnosti in projekte ob podpori nacionalnih in lokalnih izobraževalnih institucij ter spodbuja mednarodno sodelovanje z Evropskimi centri za nadarjene.

Naš glavni cilj je ozaveščanje o pomenu zgodnjega izobraževanja nadarjenih in zagotavljanje le-tega. Na področju izobraževanja nadarjenih si prizadevamo za zgodnjo prepoznavo in nudenje izobraževanja s pomočjo obogatitve, izobraževanja, usposabljanja in sodelovanja. Naše dejavnosti so usmerjene v strokovno izpopolnjevanje in izobraževanje učiteljev ob delu, v igralne skupine in delavnice za nadarjene otroke, v delavnice in individualno svetovanje za starše, v podporo nadarjenim otrokom iz socialno ogroženih družin, v sodelovanje z nacionalnimi izobraževalnimi institucijami pri različnih projektih in v uporabne raziskave.

V letu 2009 je bil Center kot eden ključnih institucionalnih virov na področju zgodnjega razvoja in izobraževanja otrok na Hrvaškem povabljen k vključitvi v Imenik človeških, institucionalnih in tehničnih virov v državah Sred- nje in Vzhodne Evrope in nekdanje Sovjetske Zveze (UNICEF-projekt ISSA). Poleg tega je leta 2003 Združenje hrvaških psihologov podelilo Jasni Cvetković-Lay, koordinatorki projekta in programa Centra LETNO NAGRADO S PODROČJA PSIHOLOGIJE Marko Marulić za njen izjemno dragocen prispevek k uporabni psihologiji.

Na Hrvaškem smo že vzpostavili mrežo vrtcev, ki uporabljajo programe za zgodnje izobraževanje nadarjenih, ter strokovno sodelovanje z ostalimi potencialnimi Evropskimi točkami za nadarjene; morda smo na ta način položili temelj za bodočo mrežo v naši državi v okviru Evropske mreže za podporo nadarjenih. Našemu Centru nudijo Agencije za spodbujanje regionalnega razvoja strokovno podporo in svetovanje pri pripravi in izvajanju projektov za nadarjene, ki se lahko financirajo iz EU. Člani Centra aktivno sodelujejo na svojem področju, Koordinatorica programa in projekta nevladne organizacije, gospa J.C.Lay, sodeluje pri pripravi novega hrvaškega dokumenta izobraževalne politike za nadarjene; ostali člani naše nevladne organizacije pa posedujejo specifično znanje na strokovnem področju. Koordinator programa in projekta nevladne organizacije, gospa J.C.Lay, sodeluje pri pripravi novega hrvaškega dokumenta izobraževalne politike za nadarjene. Ostali člani naše nevladne organizacije imajo tudi specifično znanje na strokovnem področju za izmenjavo.

ABSTRACT

Centre for Gifted Child Development »Bistric« was established in 1995 as an NGO which operates in the field of special educational needs. Its aim is to plan and address the teaching challenges in terms of enrichment, independent projects, and promotion of distinctive interests according to the level of psychological and cognitive development of the gifted child.

The Centre has been organizing applicative activities and projects supported by national & local educational institutions, and promoting international cooperation with EU Talent Centres.

Our prime mission is to raise awareness of the importance of early gifted education and provision. In the field of gifted education we work towards early identification and provision through enrichment, education, trainings, and collaboration.

Our activities are aimed at in–service teacher training and teacher education, playgroups and workshops for gifted children, workshops and individual counselling for parents, supporting gifted children from socially de- prived families, co-operation with national educational institutions on various projects, and at applied research.

In 2009 the Centre was invited, as one of the key institutional resources in the field of early child development and education in Croatia, to be included in the Directory of Human, Institutional and Technical Recourses in the countries of Middle and East Europe and former Soviet Union (UNICEF & ISSA project). Furthermore, in 2003 Jasna Cvetković-Lay project& programme coordinator of the Centre was awarded the ANNUAL PSYCHOLOGICAL AWARD Marko Marulić for her remarkably valuable contribution to applied psychology by the Croatian Psycho- logical Association.

We have already established a network of kindergartens in Croatia that have been applying programmes for early gifted education, as well as professional collaboration with other potential EU Talent Points in Croatia; thus, the foundation for the future network in our country as part of the European Talent Support Network may have been laid. Our Centre obtains the professional support and counselling in preparing and implementing projects for the gifted that can be funded by the EU by the Agencies for Promoting Regional Development. This can also be the way of establishing more complex and diverse collaboration with other EU Talent Points. The programme& project coordinator of the NGO, Ms. J.C.Lay, is involved in drawing up a new Croatian educational policy document for the gifted education. Other members of our NGO also have specific knowledge in the professional area to share.

POVZETEK

Vrtec »Cvit Mediterana« je organizacija, ki se osredotoča predvsem na podporo nadarjenosti: opredelitev in razvoj visoko sposobne mlade populacije.

V zadnjih 18 letih si je vrtec »Cvit Mediterana« nenehno prizadeval za spodbujanje razvoja potencialno nadarjenih in sposobnih otrok, kar je ena od pomembnih izobraževalnih nalog v programu te javne ustanove za predšolsko vzgojo.

Naše poslanstvo zajema: zgodnje odkrivanje in spodbujanje razvoja nadarjenih in sposobnih predšolskih otrok v okviru tega javnega zavoda za zgodnje poučevanje; širitev znanja učiteljev o nadarjenosti; ozaveščanje učiteljev o posebnih izobraževalnih potrebah nadarjenih in sposobnih otrok; oblikovanje raznovrstnih programov; projektno delo in izvajanje kompleksnih dejavnosti; oblikovanje pozitivnega odnosa širše skupnosti do izobraževalne potrebe po zagotovitvi posebne pozornosti nadarjenim in sposobnim otrokom; ustanovitev razvojnega centra, ki bo zagotavljal raznovrstno izobraževalno podporo učiteljem, članom strokovnih skupin in študentom pri ob- ravnavanju nadarjenosti (seminarji, delavnice, predavanja, nastopi v razredu, skupinska refleksija); oblikovanje in izvajanje strategij za posebne in nadaljevalne programe, sledenje nadarjenim in sposobnim otrokom in beleženje njihovega izobraževanja.

Intenzivno sodelujemo s starši nadarjenih otrok, z namenom, da spodbudimo njihovo dovzetnost za prepoznavanje potreb njihovih otrok in da zagotavljamo kakovostno stimulacijo za razvoj teh otrok z individualnim in sku- pinskim svetovanjem, s predavanji, delavnicami, z napotitvami k strokovnjakom, z literaturo ... V zavodu smo uvedli različne programe, ki se jih otroci lahko udeležijo za namen spodbujanja talentov (npr: program za angleški jezik, glasbeni program, umetniški program in športni program).

Projekt je bil razširjen s prenosom znanja in izkušenj znotraj institucije in izven nje. V sodelovanju z Ministrstvom za šolstvo in šport smo organizirali številne izobraževalne seminarje za učitelje in izobraževalne strokovnjake v vrtcih po vsej Sloveniji. Izobraževanja izvajamo z namenom spoznavanja in obvladanja še boljših strategij podpore celostnega razvoja nadarjenih in sposobnih otrok.

Z našim delom pozitivno vplivamo na širšo skupnost, kar zadeva potrebo po posebni skrbi za nadarjene in sposobne otroke. Naš namen je spodbujati druge javne ustanove za predšolsko vzgojo, da delajo več in na boljši način z nadarjenimi otroki, kar je tudi stalna naloga našega zavoda.

ABSTRACT

Kindergarten »Mediterranean Flower« is an organization focusing mainly on talent support: the identification and development of highly able young population.

In the past 18 years the Kindergarten »Mediterranean Flower« was continuously working on encouraging the development of potentially gifted and talented children, which is one of the significant educational tasks in the programme of this public preschool institution.

Our mission is as follows: early identification and fostering the development of gifted and talented preschool children within the public institution of early childhood and preschool education; expansion of teacher’s knowledge about giftedness; sensitizing teachers about specific educational needs of gifted and talented children; creating differentiated programmes; working on projects and conducting sophisticated activities; forming positive attitudes of the wider community towards the educational need for special care of gifted and talented children; set- ting up a developmental centre that would provide various kinds of educational support for teachers, members of expert teams and students at addressing giftedness (seminars, workshops, lectures, demonstration classes, joint reflections); designing and implementing strategies of special and advanced programmes, tracking gifted and talented children and keeping records during their education.

We cooperate intensively with parents of the gifted children with the goal to sensitize them about recognizing the needs of their children and provide quality stimulation for their development through individual and group counselling, lectures, workshops, referral to experts, literature… Within the institution we have initiated different programmes that children can undertake to cultivate their talents (e.g: the English programme, the music programme, the art programme and the sports programme).

The project has been extended through the transfer of knowledge and experience within the institution and be- yond. In cooperation with the Ministry of Education and Sport we have organized many educational seminars for

teachers and educational experts of kindergartens all over Croatia.

We have undertaken the education with a goal to learn and master even better strategies of supporting the ho- listic development of gifted and talented children.

Through our work we have been positively influencing the wider community as regards the need for special care of gifted and talented children. Our intention is to encourage other public preschool institutions to work more and in a better way with gifted and talented children, which is the permanent goal of our institution, as well.

POVZETEK

Društvo za opazovanje in proučevanje ptic Slovenije (DOPPS) (Slovenija) je neprofitna, nevladna organizacija, ustanovljena leta 1979. Delamo v javnem interesu in se ukvarjamo z ohranjanjem narave, varstvom okolja in raziskavami. Naših dejavnosti se udeležuje nad 1000 članov in prostovoljcev. DOPPS zaposluje 23 strokovnjakov. Ukvarjamo se z varovanjem ptic in njihovih habitatov, kar prispeva k ohranjanju narave in dobrobiti širše skupnosti. Ob podpori vladnih in nevladnih organizacij si prizadevamo za uresničitev našega poslanstva z znanstvenimi raziskavami, z delovanjem na področju ohranjanja narave, z izobraževanjem in z novinarskim delom.

Delamo z nadarjenimi in nadarjenimi in sposobnimi osnovnošolci in srednješolci, še posebej na področju orni- tologije in ohranjanju narave. Naša strategija je ponuditi visoko zahtevne praktične priložnosti za razvoj znanja in spretnosti mladih talentov. Mlade talente tako vključujemo v nabor zahtevnih nalog, kot so nadzor na terenu, analiza podatkov, načrtovanje, odnosi z javnostjo, delo s prostovoljci, pisanje, razvoj novih komunikacijskih tehnologij, itd. Izbrani mentorji so predani strokovnjaki, ki prostovoljno nudijo nadarjenih učencem / dijakom svoje izkušnje med samim delom. Poseben poudarek je na razvoju družbene in javne odgovornosti nadarjenih ljudi, ki bi morali uporabiti znanje za kritičen odziv v javnosti v primeru napačnih praks. Poleg neposrednega men- torstva vsako leto organiziramo posebne raziskovalne tabore in druge dogodke.

Med naše dejavnosti, povezane z nadarjenostjo, sodijo na splošno raziskovalni tabori za mlade ornitologe, v katerih nadarjeni otroci predvsem razvijajo metodološke raziskovalne sposobnosti in pisno izražanje ter vzpostavljajo medsebojne stike, nacionalna tekmovanja za mlade ornitologe iz Slovenije, ornitološka šola, vodenje in mentorstvo mladih ornitologov pri pripravah raziskovalnih del, izdaja znanstvene ornitološke revije Acrocephalus s posebno rubriko »ornitološki zapisi«, v kateri sistematično spodbujamo mlade nadarjene učence-raziskovalce k pisanju člankov.

Do sedaj je bilo naše sodelovanje na področju nadarjenosti v splošnem omejeno na delovanje na nacionalni ravni, v nekaterih letih pa so naši raziskovalni tabori izkazovali tudi mednarodno udeležbo. V prihodnje bi želeli okrepiti sodelovanje s podobnimi organizacijami, s splošnim ciljem izboljšanja in učinkovitejšega dela z nadarjenimi učenci.

ABSTRACT

DOPPS-Birdlife Slovenia is a non-profit, non-government organisation established in 1979. We work in the public interest and address nature conservation, environmental protection and research. Our activities attract the participation of over 1000 members and volunteers. DOPPS employs 23 professionals. We indulge in the protection of birds and their habitats, thus contributing to nature conservation and the welfare of the wider community. Aided by government and non-government organisations we strive to realize our mission through the conduct of scientific research, addressing nature conservation, education and journalistic work.

We work with talented and gifted primary school pupils and secondary school students, especially in the field of ornithology and nature conservation. Our strategy is to offer high-level demanding real hands-on opportunities where both, knowledge and skills, of young talents can be developed. Therefore, we include young talents into a spectre of challenging tasks, like field monitoring, data analysis, project planning, PR, working with volunteers, writing, developing new communication techniques, etc. The selected mentors are dedicated experts who vol- untarily offer their experience during work to talented pupils/students. Our special focus is to develop social and public responsibility of talented people in a sense that they should use knowledge to critically respond in public when incorrect practices are recognized. Besides direct mentorship, special research camps and other events are organized annually.

Our talent-related activities, in general, are represented by research camps for young ornithologists, where talented children mainly develop methodological research skills, writing skills and establish contacts among themselves; national competitions for young ornithologists from Slovenia; Ornithological school; Guiding and mentoring young ornithologists in preparation of their research works; scientific ornithological journal Acrocephalus with a special rubric »Ornithological notes« where we systematically stimulate young talented pupils-researchers to write their own articles.

So far our cooperation in talent-related field was generally nationally limited. However, in some years we hosted international participants at our research camps.

http://ptice.si/mailto:[email protected]://www.facebook.com/pticeDOPPS



In future we would like to strengthen our cooperation with similar organisations, with the general aim to improve and more effectively work with talented pupils. We are ready to share all our knowledge and experience, plans, data, etc., and would like to cooperate in common networking programmes.

In one of our 3 nature reserves we can offer full research capacities (dormitory, lab, bird monitoring equipment, etc.) for a smaller group of talented pupils. The area is ideal to transfer theoretical knowledge into practical nature-conservation management. Our mentors are recognized experts in nature-conservation management and we can offer this knowledge to the network, as well. In the field of biodiversity and specifically ornithology we know how to guide talented pupils to focusing on their interests, developing cutting edge skills and using them for the society.

Pedagoška fakulteta strokovno sodeluje z državno Agencijo za usposabljanje učiteljev in z drugimi potencialnimi Evropskimi točkami za nadarjene, kot so nevladna organizacija Bistrić v Zagrebu, nevladna organizacija Center za nadarjene na Reki, ter s Centrom za znanost in izobraževanje Višnjan. S sodelovanjem osebja Fakultete pri delu Šole ustvarjalnosti v Novigradu in ZECV prispeva Fakulteta k teoretičnemu napredku, k praktičnemu izvajanju in k izobraževanju na področju nadarjenosti.

Poslanstvo Pedagoške fakultete je nenehno prispevati k družbi z izboljšanjem znanja o izobraževanju s pedagoškimi raziskavami in zagotavljanjem odličnosti izobraževanja študentov, učiteljev praktikov, ravnateljev in drugih delavcev v vzgoji in izobraževanju. Pedagoška fakulteta nenehno načrtuje in objavlja raziskave o izobraževanju nadarjenih, razvija učni načrt za nadarjene ter zagotavlja usposabljanje o izobraževanju nadarjenih zaposlenim učiteljem (na lokalni, nacionalni in mednarodni ravni). Poleg raziskav nudi Pedagoška fakulteta stalno podporo osnovnošolcem, ki jih zanima matematika, preko obogatitvenih interesnih dejavnosti v obliki tedenskih ur matematike v organizaciji osebja Fakultete in študentov Univerze za pedagoške študije.

Pedagoška fakulteta namerava ustanoviti Center za raziskave nadarjenosti in podporo pri izobraževanju z namenom, da se oblikuje posebej usmerjeno, izobraževalno središče o nadarjenosti in izobraževanju nadarjenih, ki bo stalno na voljo učencem in delavcem v vzgoji in izobraževanju na Hrvaškem, in ki se bo nenehno razvijalo. Vloga Centra bo izobraževanje, izdajanje publikacij o nadarjenosti in izobraževanju nadarjenih, in zagotavljanje stalne učne podpore preko dejavnosti za prepoznavo nadarjenosti, kot tudi nudenje raznovrstnih oblik pomoči, vključno s kompleksnimi programi, obogatitvami, tekmovanji in kariernim načrtovanjem, ter z uveljavljenimi raziskavami, izobraževanjem, usposabljanjem in razvojem učnega načrta za nadarjene učence in njihove učitelje.

Pedagoška fakulteta je vključena v interdisciplinarne raziskave in v splošno predšolsko in osnovnošolsko izobraževanje, in se ne osredotoča izključno ali selektivno zgolj na izobraževanje nadarjenih, temveč tudi na dejavnosti, povezane s podporo nadarjenim. V primerjavi z vsemi dejavnostmi Pedagoške fakultete je to ena izmed njenih najpomembnejših razvojnih vej. Z ustanovitvijo načrtovanega Centra za raziskave nadarjenosti in podporo pri izobraževanju na Pedagoški fakulteti se bodo strokovnjaki s svojim strokovnim znanjem o nadarjenosti in izobraževanju nadarjenih ter z nadaljnjimi dejavnostmi v celoti osredotočali na pomoč učencem in učiteljem pri razvoju nadarjenosti na raznih področjih človekovih prizadevanj.

POVZETEK

Na Gimnaziji Bežigrad gradimo svoje delo na dobri tradiciji. Mladim omogočamo udejstvovanje na raziskovalnem področju, tekmovanjih iz znanja, dramskem, literarnem, plesno – glasbenem, umetniškem, športnem področju in na področju prostovoljnega socialnega dela. Vsako leto organiziramo medpredmetne in strokovne ekskurzije ter naravoslovne in športne tabore.

Na šoli imamo zelo veliko nadarjenih na različnih področjih, zato delu s temi dijaki posvečamo veliko pozornost. Večina naših dijakov je bila prepoznanih za nadarjene že v OŠ, največkrat gre za intelektualno nadarjenost. V šolskem letu 2014/15 je bilo vpisanih 905 dijakov, od tega jih je 812 predložilo poročilo o prepoznani nadarjenosti iz OŠ. Izmed njih je 680 dijakov podpisalo Program dela z nadarjenimi. Z nadarjenimi dijaki delamo tako med poukom kot izven njega, pri čemer upoštevamo tudi individualne osebnostne razlike. Želimo si, da bi se dijaki v šoli dobro počutili. Ker menimo, da je treba dati možnost razvijanja potenciala vsakemu dijaku, ne glede na to, ali smo ga prepoznali in evidentirali za nadarjenega ali ne, dejavnosti ponujamo vsem, ne samo pepoznanim nadarjenim. Vsak mladostnik mora imeti možnost, da razvija svoja močna področja, hkrati pa tudi možnost lastnega osebnostnega razvoja. Omogočamo več načinov dela, s pomočjo katerih lahko dijaki razvijajo svojo nadarjenost: izbira oddelka glede na želje in interese; prilagajanje pouka in opravljanja obveznosti, aktivne oblike dela, med- predmetno povezovanje, timsko delo in projektno učenje, izvedba raznovrstnih dejavnosti.

Do sedaj smo sodelovali s strokovnjaki z različnih fakultet in inštitucij v Sloveniji, sodelujemo z Raziskovalnim centrom Petnica v Republiki Srbiji in s Centrom za raziskovanje in spodbujanje nadarjenosti na Pedagoški fakulteti Univerze v Ljubljani ter z ZRSŠ, kar si želimo tudi v prihodnje.

Tako kot do sedaj, bomo tudi v prihodnje stremeli h kvalitetnemu izvajanju vseh šoli zaupanih programov, skrbeli za zadovoljevanje interesov dijakov v izvenkurikularnih dejavnostih, skrbeli za zdravje, zdravo okolje ter socialno osveščenost, skrbeli za varnost in razvoj ugodne notranje organizacijske kulture, pozitivne samopodobe ter pozi- tivnih odnosov med učitelji in dijaki. Na šoli omogočamo učiteljem stalen stik s stroko tako doma kot v tujini in skrbimo za to, da dijaki v šolo prihajajo po znanje, se v šoli dobro počutijo. Vseskozi se namreč zavedamo, da šola obstaja zaradi otrok.

ABSTRACT

Gimnazija Bežigrad is a school whose students are very gifted and talented in various fields. Therefore, we dedi- cate a lot of time and attention to working with them. Many of our students have been already identified as gifted in primary school. In the school year 2014/15, 812 students submitted primary school reports identifying them as gifted. Out of 905 students of our school 680 of them were enrolled in the »Programme of Work with Gifted Students«.

We work with gifted students in many different ways, taking also their personality differences into account. We offer various activities to all our students, not just to the ones who have been identified as gifted. Young people should have the opportunity to develop their strengths, but also the possibility of their own personal development.

We enable the students to choose a class according to their interests and talents. They can choose a second foreign language (various levels of proficiency), a higher level of complexity or in-depth work in mathematics and physics, as well as different levels of complexity of their elective courses. Our teachers support interdisciplinary practice, teamwork and project-based learning. In addition to our curriculum, we carry out school field trips. We organize extracurricular activities, clubs, undertake preparations for various competitions and conduct individual research.

At our school, we build our work on good tradition that has for decades characterized our school, and clearly out- lines its mission. We enable our young students to participate in research as well as in various competitions. Our students are fostered to indulge in different drama and literary activities, as well as in dance and music; they can commit themselves to arts, they can join many different sport activities, or explore the option of voluntary social work. Every year we organize cross-curricular field trips as well as science and sports camps.

So far, we have cooperated with experts from various Faculties and institutions in Slovenia as well as with the Research Centre Petnica from the Republic of Serbia and the Centre for Research and Promotion of Giftedness at

http://www.gimb.org/mailto:[email protected]:[email protected]://www.facebook.com/GimBezigradhttp://www.twitter.com/GimBezigrad



the Faculty of the Education of the University of Ljubljana. In the future, we shall continue to strive for the quality execution of all school programmes, consider all the various extracurricular interests of our students, and take care of their health. We are going to try to establish supportive and healthy environment for the development of social awareness, positive self-esteem and good relations between teachers and students.

We shall continue to monitor our gifted students within their schoolwork, and track their achievements outside school (at the school, regional, national or international level).

POVZETEK

Veliko učencev, ki se vpiše na Gimnazijo Brežice, je bilo prepoznanih za nadarjene na različnih področjih v osnovni šoli, nadaljnja prepoznava pa lahko poteka tudi po njihovem vpisu na našo šolo. S prepoznavo in razvojem nadarjenosti imamo dolgoletne izkušnje, na podlagi katerih smo razvili številne dejavnosti, ki so na voljo tem dijakom. Najprej naj omenimo tedenske interesne dejavnosti, v katerih dijaki širijo in poglobijo znanje z različnih predmetnih področij, raziskovalni tabore ob koncu tedna, izlete v razne evropske države, priprave in sodelovanje na aka- demskih in športnih tekmovanjih. Dijakom nudimo mentorstvo pri njihovem raziskovalnem in projektnem delu, najbolj sposobni med njimi imajo možnost, da se pripravljajo za Olimpijade znanja v sodelovanju s fakultetami.

Vsako leto povabimo nadarjene osnovnošolce, da obiščejo našo šolo in da sodelujejo pri nekaterih izmed številnih delavnic – s področja znanosti, jezika, IKT, zgodovine, etnografije, podjetništva, športa.

Nadarjenim nudimo psihološko svetovanje in karierno usmerjanje in zagotavljamo psihološko svetovanje za učitelje in starše nadarjenih dijakov.

Prav tako imamo nekaj izkušenj z izvedbo učnega načrta. Že tretje leto zapored izvajamo projekt organiziranih športnih skupin, namenjen dijakom z visoko razvitimi psihomotoričnimi sposobnostmi. Šolski program za uspešne športnike je prilagojen njihovim potrebam, da lahko usklajujejo izobraževanje in treninge z namenom nadaljnjega razvoja njihovih športnih spretnosti in sposobnosti.

Dijaki, ki so nadarjeni za jezike, vizualne in uprizoritvene umetnosti, imajo veliko možnosti za izražanje svoje ustvarjalnosti, npr. v okviru šolske televizijske ekipe, v uredništvu šolskega časopisa, v različnih odrskih predstavah in na kulturnih dogodkih, v šolskem zboru, itd.

V okviru Evropske mreže za podporo nadarjenih pozdravljamo obiske predstavnikov drugih Točk za nadarjene. Pripravljeni smo sodelovati z drugimi šolami pri načrtovanju in izvajanju dejavnosti obogatitve za nadarjene dijake in se veselimo skupnih dejavnosti, npr. razvoja programa usposabljanja učiteljev ter vzpostavitvi načinov sodelovanja s starši. Kot Evropska točka za nadarjene želimo organizirati delavnice za nadarjene.

ABSTRACT

Many students who enrol in the upper secondary school Gimnazija Brežice were identified in primary school as gifted and talented in various areas, and some more may be identified as such after their enrolment in our school. We have had many years of experience in talent identification and development, which has resulted in a wide range of activities offered to these students. First of all, there are extracurricular activities in which students ex- pand and deepen their knowledge of different subject areas, such as classes on a weekly basis, weekend research camps, excursions to various European countries, preparations for and participation in academic contests, as well as sport competitions. Mentorship is provided for the research and project work of students, and the most able students are given the opportunity to prepare for Knowledge Olympics in collaboration with Faculties.

Each year we invite gifted and talented primary school pupils to visit our school and to take part in some of the many workshops we organize – of science, language, ICT, history, ethnography, entrepreneurship, sports.

We offer psychological counselling and career orientation for the gifted and provide psychological counselling for teachers and parents of the gifted pupils.

We also have had some experience with the curriculum application. We have implemented the project of organized sports groups, intended for the students with highly developed psychomotor abilities for the third time now. The school programme for successful athletes is tailored to their needs, so that they can balance their education and training, with a view to develop their sporting skills and abilities.

The students who are talented for languages, visual or performing arts, have many opportunities to express their creativity, e.g. in the school television crew, in the school newspaper editorial board, in a variety of stage perfor- mances and cultural events, the school choir, etc.

As part of the European Talent Support Network we shall welcome visits of representatives of other Talent Points. We are willing to cooperate with other schools in planning and implementing enrichment activities for the gifted students, and look forward to joint activities, e.g. to develop teacher training programmes and to establish ways of cooperation with parents. As a European Talent Point we would like to offer workshops for the gifted.

POVZETEK

Gimnazija Jurija Vege Idrija je naslednik prve slovenske ne-klasične srednje šole, ki je bila ustanovljena leta 1901, in na kateri se je pouk izvajal večinoma v slovenskem jeziku. Izjemni učitelji in odlični delovni pogoji so bili vedno zagotovilo za uspeh. Kot Evropska točka za nadarjene želimo ne le prepoznati nadarjene učence, temveč tudi spodbujati razvoj vseh njihovih potencialov. Nudimo jim zahtevne programe (vključno z INDEP), prilagojene njihovim potrebam. Zagotavljamo obogatitvene interesne dejavnosti, ki omogočajo intelektualen, umetniški, družben, čustven in telesni razvoj vsakega posameznika. Izvajamo priprave za tekmovanja z vseh predmetnih področij, npr. s področja umetnosti, kot so slikarstvo, književnost, film; prav tako omogočamo sodelovanje pri drugih dejavnostih, kot so drama, športne aktivnosti in podpiramo raziskovalno delo. Za namene obogatitvenih programov že in še bomo sodelovali z institucijami lokalne in širše skupnosti, s fakultetami Univerz v Ljubljani in Novi Gorici, in z raziskovalnima centroma v Kolektorju in Hidriji. Sodelovali bomo z Mladinskim centrom, s Študentsko organizacijo, z Zvezo za tehnično kulturo Slovenije, z Zavodom RS za šolstvo, in z drugimi.

Gimnazija Idrija je bila vedno uspešna pri podpori nadarjenih dijakov. V letu 2007 smo se prijavili za razvojni projekt Izvajanje koncepta za izobraževanje nadarjenih v srednjih šolah pod okriljem Zavoda RS za šolstvo. Kot ena izmed petih srednjih šol v Sloveniji smo začeli sodelovati z Zavodom RS za šolstvo, in posledično s sistematičnim izobraževalnim delom z nadarjeni, pri čemer je bil poseben poudarek namenjen spodbujanju ustvarjalnosti dijakov.

Kot Evropska točka za nadarjene nudimo številne raznolike in zanimive dejavnosti, ne zgolj za naše dijake, temveč tudi za druge udeležence – predšolske otroke in osnovnošolske otroke, ki so bili opredeljeni kot nadarjeni, ali pa le želijo razviti svoje potenciale in interese. Nudimo obogatitvene programe za nadarjene dijake drugih srednjih šol v Sloveniji in iz tujine, kakor tudi za nadarjene odrasle posameznike v lokalni skupnosti. Starejši ljudje, ki želijo ostati aktivni in razvijati svoje talente, in s tem izboljšati kakovost svojega življenja, ter prispevati k življenju v skupnosti, lahko izbirajo med številnimi možnostmi, ki jih ponuja naša organizacija.

Želimo nadgraditi in razširiti sodelovanje z drugimi organizacijami, kar menimo, da je dodana vrednost našega programa in naših dejavnosti. Načrtujemo, da se bomo pogovorili in dogovorili z organizacijami, da bodo vključile v svoje dejavnosti tudi dijake drugih srednjih šol v Sloveniji in iz tujine.

ABSTRACT

Gimnazija Jurij Vega Idrija is the successor of the first Slovene non-classical secondary school, established in 1901, where lessons were conducted mainly in Slovene. It is remarkable teachers and excellent working conditions that have always been a guarantee for success. As a European Talent Point we wish not only to identify the gifted students, but to promote the development of all their potentials, as well. They will be offered demanding programmes, (including INDEP), tailored to their needs. We shall provide extracurricular enrichment programmes, allowing for each individual’s intellectual, artistic, social, emotional and physical development. We are going to undertake preparations for competitions in all subject areas, e.g. for art competitions, such as painting, literature, film, as well as enable participation in other activities, such as drama, sports activities, and support research work. In order to enable the enrichment programmes, we are going to collaborate with institutions of local and wider community, the Faculties of the Universities of Ljubljana and Nova Gorica, and the Research Centres in Kolektor and Hidria. We are going to collaborate with the Youth Centre, the Students’ Association, the Association for Technical Culture of Slovenia, the National Education Institute, and others.

The Gimnazija Idrija has always been successful at supporting gifted students. In 2007 we applied for the development project Implementation of the Concept of Gifted Education in Secondary Schools, conducted by the National Education Institute. As one of five secondary schools in Slovenia we started our cooperation with the National Institute, and, consequently, the systematic educational work with the gifted, whereby special emphasis was given to fostering the students’ creativity.

As a European Talent Point we can offer a number of diversified and interesting activities, not only to our students but also to other participants – preschool children and primary school children who have been identified as gifted, or would simply like to develop their potentials and interests. We can offer enrichment programmes to the gifted students from other secondary schools in Slovenia and from abroad, as well as to the gifted adults

http://www.gim-idrija.si/mailto:[email protected]://www.facebook.com/gjvidrija



from the local community. Elderly people who want to stay active and cultivate their talents, and thus improve their quality of life, as well as contribute to the life of the community, are also presented with many opportunities offered by our organisation.

We intend to upgrade and extend collaboration with other organisations, which we believe is the added value of our programme and activities. We plan to discuss and reach an agreement with the organisations to involve also the students from other secondary schools in Slovenia and abroad in their activities.
