Magdaléna Hovanová

The university textbook offers a view of the family in social contexts. It deals with the basic characteristics of the family, the life cycle of the family from the choice of partner, through the arrival of children in the family to the end of the family. During its duration, the family performs various functions. A functional family is ideal for a harmonious relationship between partners and a suitable environment for raising children.

However, a number of factors enter the life of the family, which directly or indirectly affect the performance of these functions and can cause various disorders. It is here that the task of social work is to offer help to families to cope with their big and small problems. A specific feature of social work is the focus on the whole and a comprehensive assessment of the family, where it is necessary to take into account both the client's point of view and the aspect of the environment in which he lives and which constantly affects him. Therefore, the university textbook offers procedures for social work with the family, from the assessment of the life situation, through the plan of work with the family to social intervention.

The university textbook is intended for students of social work, who have the opportunity to practice complex issues within the assessment of the case through the enclosed case studies.

Selected chapters from axiology are the result of the author's multi-year research work and also a certain fulfillment of the requirements from pedagogical practice in this subject. The chapters in this synthesizing form have not been published yet, and I am convinced that precisely in this form they can acquire higher value and greater real impact on our philosophy students.

Individual chapters focus on the problem of the collapse of traditional values, often leading to nihilism and loss of meaning in human existence. It is no coincidence that Friedrich Nietzsche, a philosopher who first called for a reevaluation of all values, is a common denominator among these texts. Another key figure is F. Dostojevskij, a Russian philosophising writer who views nihilism—the problem of value destruction—differently. The goal of these texts is literally to provoke our students so that they independently and creatively address questions related to the meaning of their own existence.

As I am convinced, our time presents a great challenge for new, original ideas and axiological judgments that have always preceded cognitive ones. To what extent my intentions and goals have been fulfilled remains up to the reader to decide.

Pracovné listy vychádzajúce z priamych konkrétnych potrieb pri vyučovaní košických medikov rešpektujú reálnu situáciu pri vyučovaní slovenčiny ako cudzieho jazyka na UPJŠ. V neposlednom rade reflektujú pomerne vysoký počet slovanských študentov najmä zo susedných krajín, ktorí, hoci so slovenským jazykom iba začínajú, patria z komunikačného hľadiska na vyššiu úroveň ako študenti z neslovanských krajín. Im je teda určená špeciálna časť PL s cvičeniami, ktorá sa špeciálnymi cvičeniami, ale najmä špeciálnymi slovníkmi pokúša eliminovať slovensko-poľské či slovensko-ukrajinské interferenčné javy. Keďže časť študentov – Neslovanov prichádza aj z českého jazykového prostredia, pridávame do slovníkovej časti aj slovníček najčastejších odlišných výrazov v slovenčine, češtine a z vyššie uvedených dôvodov pridávame i poľštinu s ukrajinčinou. V časti určenej všetkým, slovanským či neslovanským, študentom prevládajú komunikačne zamerané cvičenia na nácvik gramatických javov prevažne pre úroveň komunikačných schopností A1 a A2 (podľa spoločného európskeho referenčného rámca) a v neposlednom rade cvičenia tematicky zamerané na medicínu a lekárstvo. Z tematickej oblasti sú texty, samozrejme, doplnené aj o reálie mesta Košice. Ako funkčný doplnok v pracovnom materiáli publikujeme aj ukážky testov.

The presented university textbook presents a basic overview of statistical theory and practice intended for students of social work, including examples of their use in specific studies. This text deals with the first part of statistical practice, namely descriptive analysis, which we perceive as a basic condition for the processing of any empirical research and is also important in grasping typical statistical principles and concepts.

Zborník “Stretnutie mladých historikov XIV“ s témou Myslenie a spoločnosť v priebehu dejín prináša súbor vedeckých príspevkov, ktoré sa venujú vzťahu medzi myslením a spoločenskými zmenami v historickom vývoji. Doktorandi a doktorandky z rôznych univerzít a inštitúcií analyzujú, ako politické, ekonomické a sociálne premeny ovplyvňovali myslenie rôznych sociálnych skupín a naopak, ako tieto zmeny v myslení formovali dejinné procesy. Každý príspevok bol podrobený odbornému hodnoteniu dvoch garantov, ktorých pripomienky sú reflektované v predkladanej verzii zborníku. Témy príspevkov sú rozdelené do jednotlivých blokov, v ktorých boli prezentované na konferencii 15. a 16. októbra 2024 na Katedre histórie, FF UPJŠ v Košiciach.

The academic textbook entitled “Developing Academic English in Speaking and Writing” responds to the need identified by the authors in their own teaching practice to integrate the enhancement of the academic skills of speaking and writing into a single coherent approach. Using complex methodologies of academic speaking and academic writing, the authors offer practical guidelines on how to broaden students’ knowledge of the discourse of Academic English and how to improve their academic competencies and productive language skills in speaking and writing in English.

The textbook is designed for university students of English philology, students of literary and cultural studies focusing on Anglophone areas, students of English translation and interpretation study programmes, but also for students who study in English and who are expected to engage in scientific inquiry, document their research in Bachelor and Master theses or in doctoral dissertations written in English, and to present their work to their academic community.

Zborník príspevkov z vedeckej konferencie s medzinárodnou účasťou konanej dňa 28. 11. 2014 v Košiciach

Sociálna práca patrí medzi pomáhajúce profesie, ktoré možno považovať z rôznych hľadísk za vysoko rizikové. Klientela využívajúca sociálne služby je veľmi rozmanitá. Často ide o jedincov vo vyhrotených životných situáciách. Typické je vyhľadanie pomoci, až keď sa klient ocitá na dne. Spolu s inými faktormi to môže viesť k vzniku rôznych rizikových situácií. Zborník vznikol v rámci riešenia úlohy VEGA č. 1/0332/12 s názvom Analýza vybraných rizikových faktorov klientskeho násilia v sociálnej práci s dôrazom na prevenciu klientskeho násilia a prípravu sociálnych pracovníkov - Národné zmapovanie výskytu násilia klientov voči sociálnym pracovníkom na Slovensku. Tematické zameranie zborníka je širšie, veď klientske násilie je len jedným z mnohých rizík v sociálnej práci. V zborníku čitateľ nájde 52 článkov, ktoré sa zaoberajú rizikovosťou sociálnej práce z mnohých hľadísk. Ponúkajú zaujímavý prehľad teoretických východísk, ako aj výskumných zistení. Množstvo tematických príspevkov svedčí o tom, že problematika rizika v sociálnej práci je nanajvýš aktuálna a že sa jej venuje pozornosť v oblasti teórie aj praxe. Prepojenie týchto dvoch oblastí je pre elimináciu rizika a jeho zvládanie nevyhnutnosťou. Veď prípravu odborníkov v zmysle rôznych tréningov, vzdelávaní, či vysokoškolských predmetov realizujú aj „teoretici“. Ich východiská, okrem klasických teórií, tvoria poznatky a potreby odborníkov z praxe, ktoré sa snažia zohľadniť a zapracovať do teórie, ktorú môžu následne ponúkať vo vyššej kvalite, s aplikáciou na konkrétnu oblasť sociálnej práce. Ak sa tento cyklus podarí úspešne zavŕšiť, je spolupráca medzi teóriou a praxou určite prínosom. Som veľmi rada, že aj my sme k nej prispeli svojim malým, ale dôležitým podielom a že podobné odborné podujatia sa na pôde Katedry sociálnej práce na Filozofickej fakulte UPJŠ stávajú tradíciou.

Selected chapters from axiology are the result of the author's multi-year research work and also a certain fulfillment of the requirements from pedagogical practice in this subject. The chapters in this synthesizing form have not been published yet, and I am convinced that precisely in this form they can acquire higher value and greater real impact on our philosophy students.

Individual chapters focus on the problem of the collapse of traditional values, often leading to nihilism and loss of meaning in human existence. It is no coincidence that Friedrich Nietzsche, a philosopher who first called for a reevaluation of all values, is a common denominator among these texts. Another key figure is F. Dostojevskij, a Russian philosophising writer who views nihilism—the problem of value destruction—differently. The goal of these texts is literally to provoke our students so that they independently and creatively address questions related to the meaning of their own existence.

As I am convinced, our time presents a great challenge for new, original ideas and axiological judgments that have always preceded cognitive ones. To what extent my intentions and goals have been fulfilled remains up to the reader to decide.
