Proceeding from the principle of the rational organisation of learning, the investigation attempted to establish the effect of programmed teaching of mathematics with the help of computers. The investigation was carried out in March 1999 amongst 87 pupils attending the fourth grade in the “Šime Budinić” elementary school in Zadar. A test (1) which examined the level of acquired knowledge from math was applied. The pupils were also tested with Raven’s progressive coloured matrices which examine the children’s ability to draw logical conclusions. General grades and grades from math at the end of the first semester were also collected. Using a model of regressive analysis where the test results from mathematics and the results of Raven’s matrices were treated as predictor variables and general grades and the semestar grade from mathematics as criterion variables it was established dial only the result of the math test was a significant predictor of criterion variables. This is why according to the results of the math test the pupils in the classroom were assigned to the experimental (E) and the control (C) group (four E and and four C groups)respectively. The experimental groups was taught a lesson from mathematics (during four school classes) with the help of programmed material on the computer (N=43) while the control pupils were taught in the traditional manner “by their teacher using chalk and a blackboard". The level of acquired knowledge from the assigned lesson amongst pupils in group E and C was examined by another math test. The results show that there is no statistical significant difference in the quantity of acquired knowledge between the experimental and control group of pupils. The investigation showed that both programmed and traditional teaching are equally effective.
By virtue, mostly, to its favorable geographical position and mild climate, but also to its rich cultural and natural heritage, the Republic of Croatia enjoys the status of an attractive tourist destination. In spite of this, numerous studies show that Croatian tourism is, to the greatest extent, “driven” exclusively by the sun and the sea, which in turn results in high seasonality and various problems arising from it. Solving the aforementioned problems is only possible with the cooperation and quality communication of all stakeholders in the destination and with professional and motivated leadership that follows tourism trends and continuously works on the sustainable development and improvement of the Republic of Croatia as a tourist destination. In this context, smart tourism is emerging as a potential direction for the development of Croatian tourism, which prioritizes the mutual cooperation of all stakeholders and smart management of the destination with the help of modern technologies. This paper describes the results of research with the help of which an attempt was made to determine the key stakeholders in the system of activities for the development and management of tourist destinations in the Republic of Croatia in the context of smart tourism, to what extent they cooperate with other stakeholders and how they perceive the problems and tensions that are present in the specified system of activities.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
