Cultural activities in primary school students' spare time

Abstract

Saţetak: Kultura je stvaralaĉki izraz ĉoveka kojim on preoblikuje svet i oplemenjuje ga vlastitom aktivnošću i tako stvara nove kulturne vrednosti. Ĉovek moţe stvoriti kulturni produkt samo kada je slobodan i sposoban da se izraţava. Savremeni ĉovek u slobodno vreme moţe inkorporirati razliĉite kulturne aktivnosti. One su posebno bitne kada su u pitanju deca i maldi, bilo da se radi o njihovom korištenju u institucionalnom vaspitanju ili u slobodnom vremenu.Autori su se opredelili za empirijsko istraţivanje procena i stavova uĉenika o kulturnim aktivnostima u slobodnom vremenu. Uzorkom istraţivanja obuhvaćeno je 233 uĉenika petih razreda. Rezultati istraţivanja pokazuju da se uĉenici petih razreda u slobodnom vremenu bave razliĉitim kulturnim aktivnostima, da uĉenici koji ţive u gradskim sredinama više posećuju kulturne dogaĊaje, da uĉenici u okviru vannastavnih aktivnosti imaju priliku da se ukljuĉe u sekcije koje pokrivaju kulturno-umetniĉko podruĉje, da nastupaju u kulturno-umentiĉkim društvima, da se bave stvaralaštvom, da se kulturne aktivnosti koriste na razliĉitim nivoima (konzumiranje, particpiacija i stvaralaštvo), te da se stavovi uĉenika o uticaju roditelja i nastavnika na izbor kulturnih aktivnosti u slobodnom vremenu ne razlikuju statistiĉki znaĉajno u odnosu na pol uĉenika, mesto stanovanja i školski uspeh.Kulturne aktivnosti su prisutne u slobodnom vremenu uĉenika razredne nastave. Zbog toga njhovu vrednost treba usmeriti na to da vaspitanje u školi i vaspitanje u slobodnom vremenu više budu komplementarni procesi.Ključne reči: slobodno vreme, kulturne aktivnosti, uĉenici razredne nastave. 1 branemikanovic@gmail.com, Filozofski fakultet Univerziteta u Banjoj Luci; 2 ma Slavojka Panzalović, Osnovna škola "ĐorĊo Panzalović" Osinja -Derventa

Family Influence on Leisure Time of Schoolchildren

“…Our results are similar to those obtained by Raboteg -Šarić et al (2002) on the choice of extracurricular activities that showed that higher supervision increased involvement in extracurricular activities and the research by Brdar & Lončarević (2004) that found a positive correlation of time spent with siblings and the involvement in organized sports activities. Slightly different results were noted in research (Mikanović & Panzalović, 2014) where parents did not set a positive example for their children in choosing structured cultural activities; and in the research by Arbunić (2004, p. 228) that showed that parents are not familiar with the activities of their children in free time. This difference in results within similar populations indicates that this question needs to be additionally researched and that some families still need support in dealing with structured activities of children's leisure time.…”

“…Although some leisure activities have proved to have positive influence and support academic success (Pešić et al, 2012;Fletcher et al, 2003), some of them encourage the occurrence of risky and delinquent behavior (Mahoney & Stattin, 2000;Petrović & Zotović, 2010;Hopf et al, 2008). All these findings aimed the researchers' attention towards developing a culture of leisure time use (Feldman & Matjasko, 2005;Mahoney & Stattin, 2000;Mikanović & Panzalović, 2014) through selecting content and form of organization activities available to children considering their age and possibilities.…”

“…According to the results of previous researches (Hofferth & Sandberg, 2001), we assumed that parents will have greater influences on younger children and concerning living environment (Mikanović & Panzalović, 2014), we assumed the parents in rural environment will have greater influence on their children. The third variable was parents' employment, since previous research confirmed the difference in parents' involvement when they are employed (Bianchi, 2000;Renk et al, 2003;Hofferth & Sandberg, 2001).…”
