RESULTS
The research group was implementing several projects within the Development Pillar of Funding (RSF) with the aim of establishing a more inclusive and digitally supported learning process through the introduction of innovative teaching methods. Project Adapting the materials of the 'Youth and Politics' course to the needs of blind, partially sighted, deaf and hard of hearing students has also been recognized as an example of good practice by the European Commission (More).
  1. Open Educational Materials for the course Civil and Human Rights Policies in Comparative Perspective
In the context of the development of open materials for the course Civil and Human Rights Policies in Comparative Perspective, open interactive learning materials will be developed in line with the curriculum and the needs of students and other stakeholders. The material will also be made available to a wider professional public (civic education teachers, non-formal educators, youth workers and other interested stakeholders).
  1. Youth and the youth sector: open learning materials for the subject
In line with the Youth and Politics curriculum, we will develop interactive learning materials that respond to the needs of students from different fields of study and other stakeholders. In addition, the material will also be targeted at other stakeholders and in particular the wider professional public, including civic education teachers, non-formal educators, youth workers and other interested parties.
  1. Substantive representation: open learning materials for the subject
In line with the curriculum of the Introduction to Comparative Politics course, we will develop interactive learning materials that respond to the needs of political science students and other stakeholders. In addition, the material will also be targeted at other stakeholders and in particular the wider professional public, including civic education teachers, non-formal educators, youth workers and other interested parties.
  1. Adapting the materials of the 'Youth and Politics' course to the needs of blind, partially sighted, deaf and hard of hearing students
The adaptation of the course is intended to improve the inclusion of non-traditional student groups, with a special focus on blind, visually impaired, deaf, and hard-of-hearing students. The adaptation is based on the principle of UDL (Universal Design for Learning), which represents a model of inclusive practice aimed at offering students the opportunity to achieve learning objectives and acquire competencies through the use of various pedagogical methods and forms of materials, as well as through the possibility of demonstrating knowledge in various (student-adapted) ways. This approach creates an inclusive learning environment that empowers students to be more independent and less dependent on support. More
  1. Pilot modernisation of the Youth and Politics course through the didactic use of ICT
The course update will be based on accessible, inclusive and interactive learning materials, equipped with teaching methods that increase student engagement, motivation and collaboration. The modernisation aims to use ICT to introduce student-centred, innovative and interactive teaching methods that promote independence and active learning and improve attitudes towards learning. Through this, students will develop communication skills, learn to think independently, work more and more effectively in groups (emphasis will also be placed on building group cohesion and dynamics) and acquire leadership skills. They will be trained in the use of ICT for learning, which will further enhance their employability at a time when ICT skills are becoming increasingly desirable in a variety of workplaces.

  1. 7. Economic democracy in democracies
In the framework of the development pillar of financing (RSF), in the winter semester of the academic year 2023/2024, we carried out a research-based curriculum project entitled "Economic democracy in democracies". Students of the study program Political Science - Comparative Public Policy and Administration participated in the project, namely as part of the Introduction to Comparative Politics course. Based on the approaches and methods of comparative politics, student groups have prepared eight public policy recommendations in various areas of economic democracy: 1. Workers' participation. 2. Participatory budgeting. 3. Comparison of participation in the Union of Scouts of Slovenia. 4. Cooperatives. 5. Economic democracy in the context of SDG8 and SDG10. 6. Economic democracy in digital economies. Platform work. 7. Workers' buyouts of companies in Slovenia. 8. The role of community governance in the sustainable management of water resources.  https://observe360.eu/publikacija/priporocila-za-krepitev-ekonomske-demokracije-v-sloveniji-rsf-naloge-studentov/

In both courses, students will prepare group research assignments, which will be presented in videos that they will film and edit themselves, presenting the themes and findings of their research assignments.
