Today's way of working and living involves the use of many products of new technologies. Many analyses of the influence of modern technologies on people and children emphasize benefits of modern ...technologies. But there are also some very bad effects of the use of modern technologies that are much less noted. One of the very frequent and very dangerous effects of the use of modern technologies is digital violence (cyberbullying). Increasing use of mobile phones, laptops, computers, the Internet, social networks and the like caused this type of violence to become very frequent, especially among school age children. The constant increase of this type of violence implies serious and detailed strategies for their reduction and elimination. This paper had both scientific and professional goals. The scientific goal of the paper was to identify the presence and exposure extent of digital violence among secondary school pupils. The professional goal was to present the results of the research conducted by a questionnaire as well asto emphasize the importance of such survey of pupils in order to better and more effectively monitor digital violence impact on pupils. The research presented in this paper was conducted by the author of this paper and included pupils from secondary schools in Niš.
Modern technologies are present in almost every part of human`s life and work. One of the most important spheres of human's life is an education. The penetration of modern technologies in this life`s ...sphere is huge, especially in last several years. These facts purport that teachers, professors and other educators must introduce and teach their pupils to use these technologies on appropriate way. This role is very important and complex. Teachers must find appropriate way to realize balance between "digital" skills needed for pupils to accept the school material, use benefits of "digital" environment and continue to use and develop the imagination and other activities used by older "no digital" generations. So, teachers must continuously learn and become acquainted with modern technologies and their benefits and use them in life and work. The modern technologies are different, but in elementary schools, secondary schools and houses of students, the most frequently used are mobile phones, laptops, tablets, Internet, social networks etc. The main goal of this paper is to present the results of use of noted modern technologies in life and work of teachers. Researches presented in this paper were realized by author of this paper as longitudinal researches and included teachers in different educational institutions, such as elementary schools, secondary schools in Niš and in pupil's homes.
Fire detectors arrangement presents a very important task in fire protection. This task was defined by valid standards. Although the standards should be equal or at least similar, there are ...situations where different standards demand different rules about detectors arrangement. One of those specific situations is the corridor case. Corridor definition is different from standard to standard, so as smoke detectors arrangement in corridors. This is especially interesting with the presence of some disturbing factors, such as airflow. This paper has been written to show smoke detectors arrangement in corridors according to the five leading standards in the field of fire protection, potential airflow influence on smoke detectors reaction in dependence of different detectors arrangement and different fire location, such as advantages of simulation software usage.
The appliance of many new technologies brought many benefits to modern society. Modern life is, generally, easier, faster and risen at the much higher level. The speed of modern technology use is ...such that it is almost impossible to have a complete view-only the benefits of modern technologies are noted. Mobile phones, laptops, tablets, drones, Internet, Facebook, Skype, 5 G network and many other examples of new technology application have lots of benefits. But, have these technologies started to be used with taking into account the potential by bad consequences that they can have? Can all potential by bad effects and consequences of modern technology use be predicted, analyzed and prevented? The main goal of this paper was to confirm and present that the increase of digital violence caused by usage of modern technologies and to show factors that are included in children protection from digital violence in Serbia. Research presented in this paper were realized by the author of the paper as longitudinal research for several years in several elementary and secondary schools in Nib, so as some research from world prove that increased use of modern technologies inevitably leads to digital violence, primarily among school age children. The paper also presents the role of different instruments in digital violence prevention and sanction in Serbia. Digital violence indeed presents a bad consequence of modern technologies and must be treated in appropriate pedagogical and legal way.
