Abstract
The purpose of this article is to investigate the teachers’ attitudes towards the use of new technologies in the educational process of children with special educational needs. The above aim is achieved through the bibliographic review of empirical and theoretical studies that have explored this subject. This article highlights the significant benefits of new technologies for pupils with special educational needs as well as the direct interdependence of teachers’ attitudes towards ICT and their use by them. Teachers’ positive attitudes towards ICT result in their extensive use and vice versa. However, as concluded in this article, there is a variety of obstacles that prevent teachers from using ICT in the educational process of children with special needs despite their positive attitudes.
Abstract
Today, research on rural social enterprises has not been sufficiently developed. In relation to remote and rural communities, academic studies tend to focus on organizations in the wider third sector, including charities, voluntary organizations, and local initiatives. Relationships between community members can encourage different support experiences. In addition, there may be a limited number of people in rural communities with appropriate skills and willingness to participate. The cooperative carries out its business with its own services but may also use the services of other Agricultural Cooperative Organizations or third parties.
Abstract
Today, Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) prevail in all areas of society, while their consolidation has brought about significant changes. Children and young people come into contact with them every day and the skills and knowledge they have acquired empirically are many. Nowadays, new technologies are considered very essential and anyone who does not have skills in this field is considered as “illiterate” as was used to be in the past for those who did not know writing and reading. Their establishment at all levels makes the use of new technologies indispensable to everyone because without such knowledge people cannot participate in key areas and processes that define them both as people and as citizens. New technologies are increasingly developing and, combined with the globalization and the economic changes that are taking place, even more intense changes are expected to occur that will have a critical impact on all people in the future, regardless of gender.

Abstract
Sports activities offer significant benefits to the human body. In addition to the physical benefits that exercise offers, it also provides mental benefits because the human brain is practiced to meet the needs of the sports. The human brain is the one that activates the members of the human body to make the necessary movements. However, over time the brain is not limited to this function but exerts itself on choosing the right movements that will help in taking a specific path to the sport that will lead to an even better performance. This is more visible in games and sports that do not require physical movement like chess. In such games, the athlete is not limited to performing movements but the brain is constantly working because it has to memorize certain movements, remember them, use them in the right order, while calculating the movements of the opponent. Consequently, sports activities offer a strong mental practice to the person involved in the exercise by increasing his or her intelligence, which is used to achieve better performance. The improvement of intelligence is also evident by the fact that the athlete is able to use the moves that are considered best in different situations at different times and with different opponents by appropriately adapting their technique.
Abstract
The aim of this article is to investigate whether or not charisma in children is considered inherited or not. There is no generally accepted definition of the gifted-charismatic child. However, various definitions of intellectual superiority include either general high capacity or high special capacity. The charisma of a child becomes apparent early in life. It can be considered as a biologically rooted label for a high level of intelligence, which shows an advanced and accelerating development of functions within the brain that allow its more efficient use. However, an interaction between the environment and the genetic framework creates intelligence, even the perception of reality. It is often difficult to separate the influences of genetics and the environment on human traits. Genetic traits do not appear instantly at the time of birth; instead, they tend to follow inherent epigenetic development pathways. Charismatic children develop asynchronously: their minds are often more ahead of their natural development and specific cognitive and emotional functions often develop differently at different stages of development. Finally, both the genetic material of the child, the environment within which the child grows and the ICTs usage and training, contribute to the development of charisma.
