    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[Design and Implementation of an Intelligent Feedback Generator for Learners of Persian Grammar]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[Key words:CALL, ICALL, Grammar, Persian, Intelligent  ABSTRACT  The aim of this paper is to report on attempt to design, and implement an intelligent feedback generator (IFG) aiming at helping learners of Persian. In order to design the system correctly, some preliminary data have been collected to see what areas are most probletic for such learners. Later a feedback generator based on two natural language processing engines for both Persian and English has been developed. The system works by comparing logical forms generated from English and Persian sentences. These logical forms are compared and anomalies are reported. With some modifications, the system can also be used with Persian learners of English since it can parse input from both languages.]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[WSNs consist of sensor nodes with limited capacity, low cost and communicating  with each other in short distances using considerably low power rate. The nodes can be  dispersed randomly into intended region in which they are used for measurement and  monitoring purposes within the frame of a common scenario. They are used in many areas  ranging from military fields to public health services because of their wide range properties.  In this application fields, there are some requirements to appear that the wireless sensor nodes  can be monitoring by remote-controlled and the data which are picked up from where the  system is placed can be processed. This paper describes the design of web based interface for  wireless sensor networks. The proposed web-based interface provide configuration of the  network and access to real-time and archived temperature, humidity, light data through any  Internet-capable device.]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[Designing teaching materials – necessity or luxury?]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[This paper examines designing language teaching materials as an integral segment of language courses taught at tertiary level. Firstly, it defines teaching materials and considers them both as anything that can be used to facilitate the language learning and as authentic materials specially designed for development of specific skills. Secondly, it discusses reasons for designing materials as supplement to the materials teachers are provided with. Thirdly, the authors attempt to present the advantages of the process of producing materials. Material designing enables teachers to have a control over selection of topic, situations, functions and skills to be developed. Moreover, it takes into account particular learning environment, students’ learning needs and their learning experiences, cross-cultural issues and their influence on development of students’ communication competence.    This is followed by a comparison of experiences in material designing at two faculties, Faculty of Mining, Geology and Petroleum Engineering, University of Zagreb, and Faculty of Technical Sciences, University of Novi Sad. The language teaching material development starts at both faculties with identification of the main requirements set by the departments and the detailed needs analysis of students’ needs which is the foundation of all language courses preparing students for using language in working environment. This initial stage helps teachers to select the textbooks and decide on additional material they need. Although material designing contributes greatly to the relevancy and productivity of language courses, it goes together with numerous obstacles ranging from technological to financial ones. To conclude the authors will elaborate on actual examples of materials produced for the courses they teach.    Keywords: language teaching, materials, design, textbooks, development.]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[Social media has fundamentally reshaped the way tourism related  information is distributed and the way people plan for and consume travel.  Since social media sites, such as Facebook, Twitter and TripAdvisor began  allowing businesses to create profiles and become active members,  businesses have started incorporating these strategies into their marketing  efforts. For Destination Marketing Organizations (DMOs) have used these  sites to promote special offers, for customer service and strengthen their  existing brands; however, little is known about how DMOs are taking  advantage of the social media marketing popularity.  The aim of this study is to explore the usage of social media among the  DMOs of Balkan countries through a content analysis of Balkan countries’  official web site profiles. Also this study examines how social media is  being used by the DMOs to enhance their brands and to reach potential  visitors. This study confirms the growing importance of social media in the  online tourism domain and mostly DMOs use only Facebook and Twitter as  a social media tools. Solely having a profile will not in itself increase  awareness. DMOs should use more social networking sites to  communicate with their consumers and give them the ability to broadcast  opinions about services.  Keywords: Social Media Marketing, DMOs, Balkans.]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[Key words: desuggestopedia, first and second concert, music, non-native teacher, acquisition, activation of subconscious potentials  ABSTRACT  Should a humanistic approach to teaching be adopted, Suggestopedia as a method has to be taken into consideration, even more so in teaching foreign language when numerous motivational barriers may prevent learners from acquisition. Created by Georgi Lozanov and supported by Stevick the method was renamed Desuggestopedia, which means that it involves unloading the memory banks, or reserves of unwanted or blocking memories. This is achieved by creating classroom/environmental setting, relaxed atmosphere and especially stimulating students’ mental reserves through integration of fine arts.  The effect of music on mental processes has long been recognized. In music therapy, it helps to facilitate the establishment and maintenance of personal relations, bring about increased self-esteem, energize and bring order using the unique potential of rhythm. This last function of music is especially emphasized in this method.  According to promoters of Desuggestopedia, classical music is widely used in the presentation of linguistic material. Most often, the employed pieces are by Mozart, sometimes Beethoven or other famous Western European composers. This paper deals with the choice of music that might be used, suggesting that the priority should be given to authentic composers. This approach to the selection of music material would also fit into the target culture that is being studied.  The problem of ‘first concert’ and ‘second concert’ techniques when performed by a non-native teacher is especially discussed. In the context of BBC English (RP), these techniques may result in incorrect interpretation and comprehension of intonation - a significant feature of spoken language. Bearing in mind the fact that the selection of music material requires the establishment of criteria for selection, the teacher should be aware of the semantics of music and its effect on limbic system which might help the students’ acquisition and activation of subconscious potentials.]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[Abstract: One of the greatest challenges faced by auditors is to detect anomalies in financial statement   reporting. Once the anomalies are detected they have to be further investigated by forensic accountants.  However, the practice of forensic accounting has not yet become a reality in Bosnia and Herzegovina. So  the main purpose of the study is to analyze to which degree BH companies are exposed to the financial  statement fraud and with respect to that the need for forensic accountants. The financial statement data  will be collected from BH companies and it will be analyzed using Beneish model. The Beneish model is  the mathematical model that identifies the manipulation of earnings through financial ratios. These  analytical techniques should reveal the unconventional variations in financial statement reporting,  indicating that there is possibility of fraudulent transactions.    Key words: Beneish model, fraudulent reporting, forensic accounting]]></dcterms:abstract>

Analiza daje osnove za zaključke o generalnom povjerenju u rad policije, tužilaštva i suda u borbi protiv organizovanog kriminala. Posebno treba naglasiti da analiza potvrđuje testiranu hipotezu da pojedinci i grupe koji se dovode u vezu sa organizovanim kriminalom imaju najveću spregu i podršku u predstavnicima vlast i predstavnicima političkih stranaka. Rezultati ovog rada ukazuju da prioriteti budućeg djelovanja u borbi protiv organizovanog kriminala treba da budu borba protiv nedozvoljenog prometa opojnim drogama, borba protiv ekonomskog kriminala i poreskih utaja i borba protiv korupcije javnih službenika.]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[Determinants of  International Tourism Flows to the Republic of Croatia: An SUR Analysis  of Panel Data from 1993-2015]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[Abstract: This paper examines origin-effects of tourist flows into Croatia from 1993-2015, a time period that features several important events: the fragmentation of Yugoslavia, the European recession, and Croatia’s accession to the European Union. Applying the seemingly unrelated regression (SUR) approach to a large panel data set with the number of annual arrivals from each origin country as the dependent variable, we identify and analyze the determinants of tourism flows to Croatia. A series of augmented gravity model specifications reveals that inflows can be explained by geographic proximity, GDP per capita, origin country population, and openness. The role of the real exchange rate variable is inconclusive, and in fact problematic for years 1993-95 when hyperinflation plagued the region in the wake of Yugoslavia’s dissolution. The results confirm the validity of the models, both for the subset of origin countries and for the subset of non-origin countries for which otherwise complete data are available. Given the importance of tourism to Croatia’s national accounts position, implications for tourism policy are discussed, as are suggestions for future research.
