Znate li kako danas izgleda Sarajka sa fotografije koja je obišla svijet? - Fokus.ba Malo ko na svijetu je bio poznat, a da toga uopšte nije bio svjestan, kao što je to Sarajka Meliha Varešanović, “bosanska Sophia Loren”, kako su je u magazinu Cracked nazvali, te napisali kako je upravo Meliha žena koja je donijela glamur ratnu zonu. Pomenuti magazin je prošle godine ovu fotografiju uvrstio na listu pet historijskih fotopriča o hrabrim ženama-buntovnicama. – Uopšte nisam znala da sam fotografisana. Prolazila sam ovim putem, kao što sam i ranije činila, pošto sam išla na posao u Općinu Novi Grad, gdje i sada radim. – Što se tiče odijevanja, ja sam uvijek vodila računa da budem uredna i lijepo obučena. Čuvenu fotografiju je napravio britanski fotograf Tom Stodart, čiji je zadatak bio da uradi foto-esej o ženama u opkoljenom Sarajevu. Fotografija je objavljena u magazinu “Life”, a kasnije i u brojnim svjetski priznatim časopisima. – 2012. godine bila je izložba u Londonu gdje je spomenuta fotografija bila najzapaženija, što je potvrdio i njen autor, kaže Varešanović.
Sharing Kindergarten: QR Codes for the Classroom These are some of the questions I have asked myself and others have asked me about QR codes. Let's tackle some of these questions today to see how "techie" we can make our students and our classrooms! QR codes are short for Quick Response. You see them everywhere to advertise, even if you don't know what they are called. Here is what a QR code looks like: Now that you have seen at least one, you will see them everywhere! {This one, by the way, leads you to my FREEBIE qu phonics sheets in case you want to know. These codes are like bar codes on items and you need something to read them... like a register at a store does. Smart phones or devices have FREE QR code reader apps you can download. The app I have is called 'QRReader' but there are MANY MANY more. Now that you have an app that reads the codes, you are all set. Open the app. Place the QR code inside the markings and let the scanner "read" the code. In this case, the code above took you to a phonics sheets, a pdf file. Ummm...

Τεχνικές Θεάτρου, Θεατρικού Παιχνιδιού, Εκπαιδευτικού Δράματος | Anna ' s Pappa blog Ο σχεδιασμός μιας σειράς μαθημάτων Κάθε μάθημα ή σειρά μαθημάτων σχεδιάζεται ανάλογα με την ηλικία, το διαθέσιμο χρόνο και το επίπεδο των μελών της ομάδας και καλό είναι να έχει τα στοιχεία: α) της δημιουργίας, (κάτι δημιουργείται, ατομικά ή σε ομάδες), β) της παρουσίασης (η δημιουργία παρουσιάζεται στην ομάδα), γ) της ανταπόκρισης (η παρουσίαση σχολιάζεται, ανατροφοδοτείται και ξαναδουλεύεται). Τα παραπάνω δίνουν την ευκαιρία στην ομάδα να δουλέψει πάνω στο «επιμέρους» και να μην βιαστεί να οδηγηθεί «στο συνολικό», δηλαδή στη «παράσταση» αφού μια μορφή παράστασης υπάρχει στο δεύτερο στάδιο. Ο εμψυχωτής μπορεί να συνδυάζει τις ασκήσεις, τα παιχνίδια και τις τεχνικές και να τις χρησιμοποιεί ανάλογα με το θέμα που μελετάει. Οποιοσδήποτε συνδυασμός στοιχείων υποκριτικής, σκηνοθεσίας, οργάνωσης ομάδας, συνενοχής, δημιουργικότητας, αντίληψης χώρου, φωτισμών κλπ. μπορεί να αποτελέσει τον κορμό μιας σειράς μαθημάτων.

BBC Radio 4 - Book at Bedtime, The Leipzig Affair, Episode 1 Θεατρική παράσταση ''Ομήρου Οδύσσεια'' -Ιούνιος 2011 | Σύγχρονο Νηπιαγωγείο Medieval manuscripts blog Today, February 1st, is the feast day of saint Brigid of Kildare (d. c. 524). Brigid or ‘Brigit’ or ‘Bride’ was a virgin and abbess, and is the patron saint of dairymaids, poets, blacksmiths and healers. She is one of the most popular medieval Irish saints, with numerous churches and shrines dedicated to her both in Ireland and elsewhere. There are multiple versions of the life of Brigid in both Old Irish and Latin. Many of these miracle stories mirror stories from the Gospels. Alongside the miracles associated with food and beer, there are also miracles involving amorous misadventures. One of the Latin lives has a different version of this story. A much later writer, Gerald of Wales (d. c. 1220) in his topographical guide to Ireland, dedicated to Henry II, has extensive descriptions of Brigid’s abbey and shrine. You can see an image of Brigid’s fire, from a manuscript of Gerald of Wales’ Topographia Hiberniae (Royal MS 13 B VIII, f.23v) held at the library here. Further Reading:
