The main problem of the research was to determine the relationship between goal orientation, satisfaction, self-esteem, and situational motivation among young karate athletes from Republic of North Macedonia. The research was carried out on a sample of 100 respondents who are engaged in karate sport between the ages of 11 and 14 from Republic of North Macedonia. The sample is divided into two subsamples according to gender, namely 54 male respondents and 45 female respondents. The sample was drawn from several karate clubs in Republic of North Macedonia. In order to realize the goals of the research, several scales were applied to assess goal orientation, satisfaction, self-esteem and situational motivation. The obtained data were processed with appropriate parametric statistical methods. Based on the obtained results, it can be concluded that a larger number of respondents (young karate athletes) from our sample are more focused on developing and improving their competence, and less on achieving results and relying on their abilities. Interrelationships among the four subscales assessing the level of self-determination to be physically active, as expected the more proximal along the continuum are more positively correlated with task orientation than those more distal along the continuum. The research results confi rm that task orientation is more positively related to more self-determined types of situational motivation (the internal motivational regulator -intrinsic motivation and the identifi cation motivational regulator -identifi ed regulation) and negatively related to less self-determined types of situational motivation (external motivational regulator- external regulation and guilt regulator - introjected regulation). Based on all that has been stated, it can be concluded that among young karate athletes aged 11 to 14, internal motives (i. e. fun, personal challenge, etc.) or so-called essential motives for playing sports should be promoted.

The aim of the study was to determine the differences in cardiorespiratory fitness, parents’ body mass index, birth weight between a group of children with normal and overweight / obesity and to determine how much the studied variables affect the risk of their biological offspring being overweight. The research was conducted on a sample of 1096 respondents, aged 6 to 10 years, randomly drawn from several primary schools in the Skopje region. The sample is divided into two sub-samples according to gender, 496 male respondents and 600 female respondents. Cardiorespiratory fitness was assessed with the 20m shuttle run test according to the procedures described in FITNESSGRAM. The children were classified into two groups, based on the percentages of the body mass index, according to the IOTF standard. The birth weight of the children was assessed from the pediatric records of each child at birth. The condition of overweight / obese parents was defined according to the classification of the World Health Organization. Data on the education of parents (especially mothers and fathers) were collected through a questionnaire.. The prevalence of overweight and obesity in this study was 22.6% and 14.9%, for the entire sample of respondents without statistically significant gender differences. The results of the research indicate the connection between obesity of parents and their children. Furthermore, the results suggest that low cardiorespiratory fitness and high birth weight are predictors of OV / OB in childhood.

Abstract Heart rate and blood lactate concentration are appropriate parameters for assessing the intensity of the effort that players must endure during a match. Athletes, coaches and scientists in the sport have a keen interest in monitoring and measuring the body's adaptations produced as a result of training. For this reason, methods are used that provide reliable information about the athlete's performance during a match or training, intensive training is used to achieve the desired metabolic, cardiovascu- lar and neuromuscular adaptations, in order to increase their physical capacity. The aim of this study was to assess the level and differences of functional abilities in female volleyball players during training in the competition period, through: maximum oxygen consumption (VO2max), calculated by applying the Beep test until dismissal. Heart rate before start of training (HRP) and during max- imum load (HRK), blood lactate level, before training (KLPO) and after maximum load (KLKO). The research was conducted on a stratified sample of three sub-samples of respondents, 20 female volleyball players, members of the three first-ranked teams from the first volleyball league of the Republic of Kosovo. For each variable, the basic descriptive statistical parameters were calculated separately; Arithmetic mean (Mean), standard deviation (SD), lower and upper limit of results (±). To determine the intergroup differences, a multivariate analysis of the variance (MANOVA) and a univariate analysis of the variance (ANOVA) were used to test the differences between arithmetic means for each variable. For determining of the special influence of each variable in creating the differences in the groups a LSD test post hoc analysis was applied. Based on the Wilks' Lambda (0.099) and Raos F-approximation (3,401), a statistically significant difference was found between the three groups in the functional abilities at the level of p = 0.005.

Sacred architecture refers to the design of objects of religious cultural heritage, and temples or houses of God have always been built throughout history. Such architecture is almost as old as humanity, more precisely as old as culture, and an essential part of human culture and art. An essential part of what defines man in addition to the material goods of the earth. Sacred architecture is one of the displays of the magnificent interior of man, an essence that invokes the greater of us and constantly points us upwards, toward heaven, toward God.As it has been emphasized for a few times so far, subjects which take care of religious cultural heritage, create the immeasurable social benefit which reflects in the spheres of culture and education, but also the activities of building and strengthening religious identity, branding and positioning. Besides the usual, non-material benefits, during last decades one has expected also different, material benefits from heritage subjects. Individually or, which is more efficient, in the synergy with tourist subjects, heritage institutions offer a nicely packed tourist product, which offers additional content to tourists who came because of other attractions and by enriching the complete experience, it lengthens the time of their stay, but it more often represents also th~supreme primary tourist attraction which attracts visitors to the destination and contributes to the environment development, causing introduction of function of other existing tourist resources, building of accompanying superstructure and infrastructure, the development of service activities and staff employmentThe World Tourism Organization (UNWTO) estim'ates that religious tourism generates 600 million faith -motivated travelers annually, of which 280 million are actual pilgrims. In history, destinations with religious tourism have become the center of religious, commercial and cultural events of importance for the economic development of the country.

As a part of the democratic tendencies of our society. the idea that that no child should study in any language other than the one it speaks at home is seen as imperative, because otherwise. it would imply that the language spoken at home is somehow inferior. This concept is implemented in the constitution of the Republic of North Macedonia as well as the law for primary and secondary education. The Republic of North Macedonia is a multicultural and a multiconfessional society in which children of different ethnic groups study in their native language either In different schools or in the same school. but in different shifts. In this paper we will try to establish to what extent the ethnically segregated society affects the ethnic distance between students from different ethnic groups, specifically their read iness to accept certain social relations with the ethnic other. In the process of building his or her ethnic identity. childhood has an essential role. The process of differentiating from the ethnic and religious other takes place through traditions, culture and language. in which the "other" is also a part of the process. The existing barriers between students are more easily overcome through direct contact between students. whether these differences are based on a difference in language, religion or other elements of culture. Ethnic segregation in the educational process not only disables the creation of direct contact between students, but also between all other participants of the educational process, such as teachers and parents. The key question which is asked is whether the ethnic segregation in the primary education in the Republic of North Macedonia increases the ethnic distance between ethnic groups, a phenomenon which can cause the disintegration of Macedonian society in the long run.

RELIGIOUS EDUCATION IN EUROPE
(AYDIN ADNAN MENDERES UNIVERSITET, 2020-12)
Dushka Matevska

Within religious education in public schools, the conviction that there is no educational system that could afford to ignore the role of religion in European societies is growing. Ignorance in this area can lead to the creation of negative stereotypes in which extreme forms of hatred, conflict, and violence against the religious other occur. Knowledge of religion and the most important religious systems in Europe is an important part of quality education, which can promote mutual respect for believers of different religious backgrounds as well as promote understanding of social and cultural diversity. In addition to knowing the doctrines of one's own religious beliefs, high school students should also be introduced to the religious aberrations of other religious systems. All this will enable them to develop competences for religious dialogue and cooperation, through which they will practically implement the principles of religious tolerance and interculturalism. In this context, religious rights and freedoms should be seen within the framework of Toledo's guiding principles, which offer a neutral and democratic way of organizing religious education in Europe. Teaching about religions and beliefs must be organized in a way that is fair, accurate and based on knowledge. Students need to learn about religions and beliefs in a society that fosters respect for diversity, human rights and freedoms. It is believed that based on the experience of most countries in Europe, knowledge of religion can reinforce the importance of respecting everyone's right to freedom of religion or belief, fostering democratic civil law, promoting an understanding of social differences and at the same time strengthening of social cohesion. Teachers who teach religious education should respect religious freedoms and foster the rights of religious others in a spirit of mutual respect and tolerance in modern European societies.

The process of socializa fion begins/ram the very birth DJ the child. The first mediators between society and the child are the parents. Parents have exclusive access to the child when it acquires the first information about the world around him. The specific emotional relationship between the parents and the child increases such socializing power of the family. The jact that parents can directly influence the formation of the ethnic identity of the child and thus transmit the norms and values that are characteristic of their own culture must not be neglected. On the other hand, children through imitation and identification con accept certain attitudes and behaviors from their parents. Both types of model learning can lead to a pronounced ethnic identity in children. In this paper we will try to examine the impact of the level of education of parents on creating the perception of their children in relation to members of other ethnic groups.

The Islamic moral code incorporates all the commonly accepted moral virtues and then endows them with a sense of balance and proportion, by assigning each one a suitable place and function in the scheme of life. It widens the scope of man's individual and collective life by dealing with his domestic associations, civic conduct, and his activities in the political, economic, legal, educational, and social realms. It covers his life from The home to the society, from the dining table to the battlefield and peace conferences. In short, from the cradle to the grave - for no sphere of life is exempt from the universal and comprehensive application of the moral principles of Islam. It makes morality reign supreme and ensures that the affairs of life are regulated by moral norms, and not dominated by selfish desires and petty interests. A major goal of Islam is to provide humankind with a practical and realistic system of life by which he can conduct his life. It calls upon humankind not only to practice virtue but also to establish it and to eradicate all that is harmful. It seeks the supremacy of the conscience in all matters so that what is harmful cannot gain the upper hand either in an individual's life or in society. Those who respond to this call are known as Muslims, which literally means those who have submitted to God. The sole object of the resulting community of Muslims or Ummah is undertaking an organized effort to establish what is good and to fight and eradicate what is evil and harmful.
