AIMS AND PURPOSE OF THE SYMPOSIUM

Students of pedagogy and similar sciences have certainly already discussed the amount of influence that upbringing and education have on the subject of upbringing. The reason behind choosing the forementioned topic as the fundamental issue of the Symposium is its relevance and importance of finding solutions to its problems. The purpose of presentations is to raise awareness of the importance of educational process in the development of a young individual, and at the same time, the importance of a teacher as a key factor in the process.

The goal of this Symposium is to portray the comprehensiveness of the pedagogical science and to encourage its interdisciplinary approach, which offers a wide array of fields of interest. With the emphasis on omnipotence of upbringing and education, the aim is to popularize educational sciences and to accentuate the importance and the prospects of pedagogy in the modern world. Moreover, many possibilities for further research are opened, as well as for professional and scientific improvement of educational workers.

The Symposium includes experts' lectures from the field of education, student presentations, discussions and interactive workshops. Apart from the formal part of the Symposium, casual meetings will be held so that students from different universities can meet and have an opportunity to form acquaintanceship, friendships and partnerships.

QUOTING AND PARAPHRASING IN THE BODY OF THE WORK

Bibliographic annotations in the text are put in parenthesis. They are a direct reference to the source used for the idea or thought presented, in a way of mentioning the author (author's last name) and the year of publication.

Example of paraphrasing: Winner (2005) uses this term to describe children with three atypical characteristics.

If several works are cited, semicolon is used to separate the sources: (Green, 2002; Simpson, 2001; Wilson, 1997)

If quotations are used (literal repeating of what an author said/wrote), they are marked with quotation marks, followed by the author's last name, year and the page on which the original text can be found.

Example of quoting: "Therewith from her breast she loosed the broidered girdle, fair-wrought, wherein are all her enchantments; therein are love, and desire, and loving converse, that steals the wits even of the wise" (Homer, 1995: 194).

When two or more authors of one work are cited, the last name of the first author is used, with the addition of "et al.", followed by the year of publication. E.g.: (Mrnjaus et al., 2013). In addition to the year of publication, when quoting, page number should be written (Mrnjaus et al., 2013, 124)

If a quotation has over 40 words, it is written with a smaller font size (font size 11), line spacing - single, without quotation marks and indented five spaces at both sides of the text.

Example: The "placebo effect," which had been verified in previous studies, disappeared when behaviors were studies in this manner. Furthermore, the behaviors were never exhibited again [italics added], even when reel [sic] drugs were administered. Earlier studies were clearly premature in attributing the results to a placebo effect (Jones, 1993: 199).

If the idea of an author that was already paraphrased by another author is used, the original author is mentioned first (last name, year of publication), followed by the author of the work in which the quote or paraphrase was used.

Example: Primary dimensions of peer relationships are acceptance and friendship. (Bukowski and Hoza, 1989, as cited in Lacković-Grgin, 2006).

Annotations are additional explanations or comments on the idea or the topic of the work, which are listed as explanatory annotations (footnotes, without citing the source) due to different reasons (size of the work, fitting in the work as a whole, etc.)
