1. Osnove kvalitativnega raziskovanja na pedagoškem področjuNina Krmac, Majda Cencič, 2025, reviewed university, higher education or higher vocational education textbook Abstract: V knjigi je poudarjena pomembnost kvalitativnega raziskovanja v pedagoškem prostoru, saj omogoča poglobljeno razumevanje izkušenj, pomenov in procesov v vzgoji in izobraževanju. Knjiga je namenjena predvsem začetnikom ter ponuja dostopen, praktičen in razumljiv uvod v kvalitativni pristop, brez zapletenih teoretičnih razprav. Bralca vodi skozi celoten raziskovalni proces – od oblikovanja raziskovalnega problema do zbiranja, obdelave in predstavitve podatkov. Poleg metodoloških osnov izpostavlja tudi pomen etike, refleksije in raziskovalne občutljivosti. Namen knjige je spodbuditi raziskovalno razmišljanje ter prispevati k profesionalnemu razvoju in izboljšanju pedagoške prakse.

2. ICT use in early childhood education from parents’ and educators’ perspectivesNina Krmac, Petra Furlan, 2026, original scientific article Abstract: The study aimed to investigate the use of information and communication technology (ICT) by pre-school children as perceived by parents and educators. By analyzing the perceptions of both groups, we wanted to understand how frequently and in what context ICT is used in children's daily lives and in the educational process. The results showed that educators use ICT only occasionally, typically a few times a year, while parents reported a much higher average weekly use of ICT by children. Statistical analyses revealed significant differences in how parents and educators perceive the impact of ICT on children's development, particularly in the areas of knowledge, creativity, and originality, with educators rating the developmental potential of ICT higher. The most commonly used technology among preschool children was television, followed by smartphones, tablets and computers. The discussion also highlighted differences in the use of applications and emphasized the need for greater professional support in the selection and use of ICT for children's development.

3. Digital teaching and copyright challenges under EU law : insights from Slovenian academic staffNina Krmac, Martina Kovačič, 2026, original scientific article Abstract: In the context of increasingly digitised education, understanding the lawful use of copyrighted material has become essential for academic staff. This study examines university teachers’ awareness of copyright law and its practical application in teaching, particularly in online and distance learning environments. A quantitative survey was conducted among higher education teachers and faculty assistants at a selected Slovenian university using a structured questionnaire. The findings indicate that, although participants generally recognise the importance of copyright law, their practical knowledge—especially in scenario-based teaching situations—varies considerably. More experienced staff reported higher levels of understanding and greater caution in the use of copyrighted material, whereas less experienced staff more frequently reported practices that may fall outside compliant use. Respondents also expressed strong interest in copyright training, yet only a small proportion reported having access to training opportunities within the institution. The study is embedded in the broader legal framework of EU copyright law, in particular Directive (EU) 2019/790, which introduced mandatory exceptions for digital and cross-border teaching. This directive was transposed into Slovenian legislation in 2022. The results underscore the importance of strengthening legal literacy and institutional support mechanisms to facilitate copyright-compliant teaching in digital learning environments.

4. Raziskovanje managerskih in organizacijskih pojavov : med metodološkimi smernicami in raziskovalno realnostjoKlara Čalušić, Nina Krmac, 2025, professional article Abstract: Raziskovalci managerskih, organizacijskih in poslovnih pojavov delujejo na stičišču različnih vsebinskih poudarkov ter bogatega nabora metodoloških pristopov za sistematično preučevanje omenjenih tematik. Kako metodološko korektno zasnovati raziskavo, se lahko izkaže za posebej zahtevno nalogo zaradi več razlogov, ki izhajajo iz narave discipline, socializacije v akademsko okolje, izhodiščnega raziskovalnega problema, konteksta in nenazadnje dinamičnega poslovnega okolja, v katerem želijo raziskovalci opraviti raziskavo. Pri tem se lahko soočijo s situacijami, ki zahtevajo določeno mero metodološke fleksibilnosti za smiselno uravnoteženje raziskovalnega namena in ciljev s praktičnimi omejitvami, ki se pojavijo v raziskovanju. Ravno zaradi tega je ključnega pomena, da poznajo različne metodološke možnosti, ki so jim na voljo, vendar pa po drugi strani raziskave na področju managementa kažejo, da se določeni pristopi pojavljajo kot dominantne metodološke opcije. Namen članka je prvenstveno predstaviti nekatere izzive, s katerimi se soočajo raziskovalci, in podati drugačen pogled na metodologijo, kot ga običajno dobimo iz prebiranja številnih metodoloških učbenikov, s poudarkom na praktičnih izkušnjah raziskovalcev.

5. Developing alumni competencies : lifelong learning and the challenges of today’s workplaceMirko Prosen, Anita Trnavčevič, Nina Krmac, Klavdija Kutnar, 2025, independent scientific component part or a chapter in a monograph Abstract: Lifelong learning is essential for the professional and personal development of alumni and for adapting to the challenges of the modern labour market. The aims of the study were to explore the lifelong learning needs of alumni and to identify the key content areas and competences they would like to develop, with a particular focus on green and digital skills and preferred lifelong learning formats and delivery modes. A qualitative study was conducted with semi-structured interviews in three focus groups (n = 19). The thematic analysis revealed five themes: (1) lifelong learning needs; (2) key areas of lifelong learning; (3) formats and delivery modes of lifelong learning; (4) the role of the alumni club; and (5) suggestions for improvement. The results provide a basis for the development of targeted micro-credentials to better support alumni in strengthening their skills and successfully integrating into today’s labour market.
