SUMMARY:Critical Understanding of Media Content
DESCRIPTION:The media critical analysis workshop will provide participants with knowledge for a conceptual understanding of media content. The aim is to identify viewpoints\, genres\, and patterns of media presentation\, and to detect propaganda\, censorship\, and bias within content. The group of young people aged 12 to 15 is assumed to have insufficient media literacy; however\, they are more skilled in using mobile digital devices and can create some media content and share it with other users. At the same time\, they access content uncritically and are therefore a potentially vulnerable group exposed to fake news and online abuse. The workshop will demonstrate how exposed they are to fake news and teach them how to develop a critical attitude toward information and other media content. \n\nImplementation for pupils and teachers of Anton Ukmar Primary School Koper. \n\nPresentation for teachers\, April 7\, 2025\nWorkshop implementation\, April 7–11\, 2025\nPresentation of results\, September 26\, 2025\n\n\n\nFurther below\, you are kindly invited to read and view the following materials related to the event: \n\nThe invitation with the program is available at this link.\nEvent materials are available at this link.\nPhotos from the event:

SUMMARY:Conversations with UP Alumni: Connecting Science with Everyday Life | UP FM – Current Geopolitical Developments in the World
DESCRIPTION:On Thursday\, November 28\, at 6:00 PM\, a meeting with Assoc. Prof. Dr. Primož Šterbenc and Simona Simonovič\, MSc in Political Science\, will take place in Lecture Room 3 at the Faculty of Management. \n\nToday\, we are living in a specific period of international relations\, marked by a transition from a unipolar global order (a single superpower) to a multipolar one (several major powers). Such periods are generally unstable and potentially dangerous. The fundamental context of contemporary international relations is the competition between the United States of America and the People’s Republic of China for global leadership\, which could lead to a conflict between a “ruling power” and a “rising power\,” as warned by the renowned Athenian historian Thucydides. The greatest risks are associated with the South China Sea and\, in particular\, Taiwan. Washington and Beijing are seeking to improve their geostrategic positions through various projects and alliances\, with China’s Belt and Road Initiative being the most important among them. From this perspective\, the turbulent developments in Ukraine and the Middle East must also be interpreted. \n\n\n\n\nEvents organised by the Alumni Office team\, involving alumni and professors from specific faculties\, aiming to create a dynamic environment for meaningful discussions on contemporary and relevant topics\, including fake news and conspiracy theories. The six sessions will take place throughout the year\, with a moderator leading a structured discussion at each session\, after which we will open the floor for questions from the audience and further informal conversation over a reception to follow. \n\nFurther below\, you are kindly invited to read and view the following materials related to the event: \n\nThe invitation with the program is available at this link.\nPhotos from the event:

SUMMARY:Lingua Franca Through the Centuries and in the Modern Era
DESCRIPTION:The workshop is based on dialogue between students and the lecturer and is aimed at deepening young people’s linguistic way of thinking through an exploration of the phenomenon of the lingua franca throughout history and in the modern era. \n\nIn the initial phase of the workshop\, students are introduced to the concept through the lecturer’s guiding questions. They then independently or in pairs\, following the lecturer’s instructions and using online resources\, research examples of European languages that played the role of a lingua franca in different historical periods. They also identify the reasons why a particular language assumes the function of a universal code for international or intercultural communication across all levels of interaction\, linguistic registers\, and domains of everyday life. \nAfter watching a short thematic video\, a brief discussion follows on how and to what extent a lingua franca influences the development of an individual speaker’s identity\, as well as the formation of collective identity or cultural awareness in a global sense. \nAt the end of the workshop\, the lecturer connects the concept of the lingua franca with the concept of artificial zonal or international auxiliary languages. \nThe workshop is strongly practice-oriented while simultaneously encouraging students to perceive language(s) from a broader perspective. \n\n\nFurther below\, you are kindly invited to read and view the following materials related to the event: \n\nThe invitation with the program is available at this link.\nPhotos from the event:

SUMMARY:Interactive Workshop: The Lives of the Romans Through the Exploration of Archaeological Finds
DESCRIPTION:The sheltered area of Simon’s Bay attracted wealthy Romans as early as 2\,000 years ago\, leading them to build a large harbor and a luxurious Roman seaside villa nearby. Today\, the remains of this villa can be seen as part of the Simon’s Bay Archaeological Park. During a guided walk through the park\, participants will learn about the villa and some of its characteristic rooms\, become familiar with the site’s fate after the villa’s decline\, and gain insight into both the charms and challenges of archaeological work. \n\nThrough examples of various archaeological finds\, we will see what conclusions archaeologists can draw about life in the Roman period. What can objects such as a fragment of a glass bowl\, a statuette of Victoria\, a terra sigillata cup\, a brick\, or a stylus “tell” us? \nDuring the visit\, pupils also receive an educational workbook\, which they complete with the help of clues and take home with them. By filling it in\, they learn many additional interesting facts about the villa and about the lives of the Romans who lived there. \n\n\nFurther below\, you are kindly invited to read and view the following materials related to the event: \n\nThe invitation with the program is available at this link.\nThe educational brochure is available at this link.\nPhotos from the event:
