    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[Legal Discussions in Data Privacy and the Environment in Bosnia-  Herzegovina]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[Dramatic increase in importance of data privacy came with advance of information  technology. Global domination of information exchange is forcing governments to establish  international standards and regulatory mechanisms in order to protect data privacy. These efforts  resulted in general principles of data privacy, which have been widely accepted, but also difficulty  for diverse legislations.  While Europe has highly developed and human rights oriented data privacy regulations, USA has  less regulated and business enhancing oriented approach. Such discrepancy resulted in continious  international discussions and agreements towards regulation‘s harmonization.  Data privacy regulations in BiH has radical boost recently. The main push was protection of data  privacy as condition for visa liberalization with EU countries, making BiH data privacy in full  compliance with EU standards. However, when it comes to practical application, there‘s  significant amount of data privacy interference and lack of awareness, while most serious breaches  are conducted by public administration.]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[LEGAL ENGLISH DISCOURSE: GENRE AND  CULTURE-SPECIFICITY]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[Legal discourse is very much tainted by political, ideological, historical, cultural characteristics, much more so than the language of mathematics or technology. Independently of any culturally, historically and linguistically determined variation, legislation has, however, one and the same function across cultures - it regulates behaviour. The different legal systems have one and the same goal, which is the administration of justice. The aim of this presentation is to discuss the common features of the statutory text in different legislative contexts in terms of its communicative purpose, the participants in the communication, production strategies and then highlight how the diversity in legal ratiocination affects the form and content of legislative expression.]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[Legal Perspectives on EU Integration Process of BIH: Analyses ofthe European Commission Progress Report 2013 for BIH]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[Bosnia and Herzegovina has gained a status of “potential candidate country” for the accession to the European Union by the decision of the European Council in Thessaloniki in 2003, and has thus faced many obstacles in its integration process to the European Union. According to the EU integration criterion that takes a form in the economic, political, social and legal context, the authors of this paper raise the question on the legal context and issues that BH has to overcome in order to come closer to the EU idea. In this regard, the paper analyses the European commission 2013 progress report for BH as the main source as well as other relevant secondary reports in order to outline the issues in hand. The paper aims to elaborate the EU-BH integration process within the framework of legal obligations highlighting the legal instruments, institutions, systems and structures that define the legal context in this regards. Unfortunately, there are many legal challenges and the need to reform core institutional structures within the state as well as developing a practical and theoretical strategy for the BH-EU accession process that harmonizes the regulations within BH of that within the EU. Without analyzing the political criteria and the role within foreign policy, BH still has structural and institutional issues from the Dayton Peace Agreement (DPA) and lacks sufficient legal requirements, and the insufficient acknowledgement for the rule of law.

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[Legalese in Maritime English Curriculum]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[Maritime English is an example of ESP crucial to its users on board ships as much as a lifejacket. Nevertheless, some of its aspects have so far been neglected, and legalese is definitely one of them.  The opinion has been confirmed lately upon the implementation of 2006 Maritime Labour Convention and Manila Amendments to the STCW (Standards on Teaching, Certification and Watch-keeping) Convention for seafarers which came into force on January 1, 2012. Seafarers on foreign-going ships with international crews commonly get a copy of the legal document on board their ships, but the drawback is its being written in an English language different from the ESP they were trained to use once afloat. Since the document of the kind is vitally important for seafarers to get acquainted with their rights on board during their contracts, they should be taught basics of legal English in the course of their education.  Students should be taught the most common characteristics of the legal language and trained in the understanding of the specific lexis and syntax. For this purpose appropriate language exercises should be devised and implemented by maritime English lecturers in higher education institutions.]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[This study describes the length-weight (LWR) and length-length (LLR) relationships of round  sardinella Sardinella aurita (Linnaeus, 1758) from Izmir Bay, Turkey. A total of 1948  specimen of S. aurita collected from fisherman’s catch with gillnets from November 2004 to  October 2005 were used for this study. Fish size ranged in total length (TL, minimum) 15.0  cm for males, 14.2 cm for females and 14.2 cm for both sexes. The parameters a and b of the  length-weight relationships were calculated as W=aLb and LWRs for males, females and the  total sample population determined to be W=0.0033L3.279, W=0.0025L3.375 and  W=0.0027L3.340 respectively. The values for allometric coefficient b of the LWRs showed  positive allometric growths in the both sexes.  LLRs were measured as TL=a+bFL, FL=a+bSL and SL=a+bTL equation in all sexes and  combined. In all the samples together, LLRs are as follows: TL=-1.3284+1.2087FL,  FL=1.4623+0.9581SL and SL=0.0000+0.8382TL. The results further indicated that LLRs  were highly inter correlated (r2˃0.9, p˂0.01).  Keywords: Round sardinella, Sardinella aurita, length-weight relationship, condition factor,  Izmir Bay, Aegean Sea.]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[Leniency and Severity Errors in Performance Appraisal in the Context of  Collectivist and Individualist Culture]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[Although the difficulty in carrying out the human resources’ practices into life in  different cultures is a major problem that the implementers have been handling for years, the  “appraisal errors”, which are important obstacles in front of an effective performance appraisal,  are needed to be examined more deeply in terms of socio-cultural factors. Because,  performance appraisals may be affected much by the value judgments that may have quite  serious differences with respect to the cultures. Therefore putting forward the effects of the  context in which the appraisal errors take place, has a critic importance for making sense of the  error reasons and for creating solutions. In this study, leniency and severity errors, those are  included in the performance errors, have been examined in the context of collectivist and  individualist cultures. Besides, the question as “how do the judgment values of those cultures  affect the tendencies of the raters towards leniency and severity error?” has been tried to  answer. This theoretical study has revealed that the variety of the cultural differences could  affect the tendencies of the raters towards leniency and severity influentially.]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[Let Them Speak: Alternative Activities to TTT]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[Speaking is a crucial part of second language learning and teaching. If students do not learn how to speak or do not get enough opportunity to speak in the language classroom, they may soon get demotivated and lose interest in learning. On the other hand, with interesting activities and games, speaking in class can be a lot of fun, which will also raise students’ motivation and energize classes. The aim of this workshop is to provide teachers with interesting ideas and fun activities to get students to speak and make classes fun and dynamic places to be.   The workshop will begin with an activity called Diamond Game (appropriate for all levels) that teachers can use on the first day of the school as an ice-breaker activity or anytime as a speaking activity. Then another fun and energetic activity called Fruit Basket (appropriate for lower levels) will be introduced. This activity is specially good for kinesthetic students as it gets them to speak and move at the same time. The next activity will be Fish Bowl (appropriate for upper-intermediate and above). In this challenging activity, students improvise a conversation by using the prompts written by their classmates. (Two other similar activities Whose line is it anyway? and Royal Banquet will also be mentioned briefly.) Tick-tock (appropriate for higher levels) is another challenging and enjoyable activity which helps students to practice speaking within the given time. The last activity; Secret Word (appropriate for higher levels)  is a fun way to revise vocabulary and get students to speak. (Another similar activity; Throw for a word will also be mentioned briefly.) These activities provide a great way to energise speaking lessons and they require little or no preparation on the part of the teacher.  ]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[Letter Recognition Using Machine Learning Algorithms]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[Optical character recognition represents the mechanical or electronic conversion of handwritten, typed or printed images into coded text. Optical character recognition is widely used as a form of data entry from records that have been printed, and it can include invoices, bank statements, passports and many more. In the research, Optical character recognition reads data from the Re-Captcha dataset of images, converts<br />
them into strings, and these strings are used for testing, training and calculating prediction accuracy. The methodologies used are Convolutional neural network and Recurrent neural network. The convolutional neural network consist of neurons that receive data and group them according to similarity. A recurrent neural network cycle can be created between the connections of nodes, allowing the output from nodes to influence the subsequent input to other nodes. For data were used Re-Captcha images, and for the prediction of characters from images was used TensorFlow with Keras. The best results that are produced can be compared between first and last result, where the loss for first result was 20.63 and value loss was 16.45, while last result has loss of 0.56 and value loss of 2.96.]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[Letter transformation at linguistic understanding of deaf people]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[The paper analyzes the importance of writing in linguistic understanding  of the text, through the transformation of the original programmed hand alphabet as  the font (PC &amp; DEAFNESS). The aim of the research was to examine the  understanding of the correspondence between the deaf children, through comparative  analysis at understanding of the content at transformation of PC&amp;DEAFNESS into  font Times New Roman. To realize the set goal, the combined programs were used to  write two letters at the specially designed software package. Research was conducted  on a sample of 70 subjects of deaf children, which is divided into two equal and  uniform subsample of the 35 subjects, of which one subsample is an experimental  group and the second control group. The experimental group was writing to each  other with programmed alphabet, with the possibility of transformation of the letter,  and the control group with standard script, with no possibility of transformation.  Evaluation of results and testing hypotheses about the significance of the difference  of writing two letters and understanding at deaf children, has been expressed by the  analysis of changes, using canonical discrimination analysis, which showed that the  two samples differ significantly, at a significance level of P = 0.00. It was found that  the respondents of experimental group showed better results in writing programmed  alphabetical letter, with the possibility of transformation of the font.]]></dcterms:abstract>
