Title: Project-based Translation of Wikipedia Articles in a Tertiary ESP Context: Planning, Execution and Lessons Learnt Authors: Anđelković, Jelena; Meršnik, Marija; Jović, Jovana Abstract: Contemporary ESP instruction tends to avoid traditional teaching methods such as translation, since these were seen as obsolete and believed to discourage communication skills. Attitude towards translation of specialized authentic texts, however, has been changing, mostly because of its potential as an activity that contributes to students’ content and language knowledge and transferable skills, such as problem-solving, collaboration, decision-making, etc. Following the constructivism-based learning theories, this article presents the implementation of Project-Based Learning (PBL) in a tertiary ESP context on a collaborative English-Serbian translation and peer review project of selected Wikipedia articles. It outlines the project execution phases and reports on the results of a questionnaire investigating students’ evaluation of the project. The results indicate the respondents’ overall satisfaction, especially regarding the acquired content knowledge, technical and teamwork skills, and a better grade gained in the course. The results also indicate room for improvement in both the organizational aspects of the project, and collaboration between ESP teachers and project participants, as this may lead to more proficient language competencies.

Title: Transitioning from paper-based to web-based testing in an ESP course at HEI Authors: Jović, Jovana; Stojanov, Marija Abstract: The LSP courses taken by a large number of students often impose heavy workload on teachers when it comes to the testing phase, particularly if paper-based testing is still in use. Such testing is not only time-consuming and inefficient owing to the lengthy test development, grading and reviewing processes, but also stressful for teachers due to the possible grading mistakes, miscalculation of points, illegible students’ handwriting, etc. Using as an example an ESP undergraduate course at a business-oriented university, the purpose of this paper is to describe how testing in large LSP courses can be facilitated and made more efficient by shifting to web-based testing via Moodle. This descriptive study aims to outline the process of transition in terms of fulfilling the technical requirements, analysing the paper-based test to determine how best to adapt the test items and the grading system for computer delivery, which was followed by choosing question types and creating a question bank on Moodle. Although these transitioning phases are laborious and require some teacher training on how to use Moodle to create tests, once completed they significantly reduce subsequent teachers’ workload. The time needed to devise test items in every exam term is reduced to just a few clicks, teachers do not partake in grading since it is done completely by the computer, the reviewing lasts for a few minutes and the problems teachers previously faced with paper-based testing (grading mistakes, miscalculations, illegible handwriting) are avoided. Therefore, it transpires that the web-based testing via Moodle has eventually made the testing process more practical and efficient from teacher’s perspective, but also emphasized the importance of choosing the question types appropriately in order to achieve test authenticity.

Title: Introducing Interpolative Boolean Algebra for Interval-Valued Fuzzy Sets Authors: Milošević, Pavle; Zukanović, Milica; Hudec, Miroslav; Dragović, Ivana; Fernandez, Javier Abstract: Interval-valued fuzzy sets (IVFSs) are an extension of traditional fuzzy sets by representing membership degrees as intervals rather than crisp numbers. It enables a more sophisticated modeling of imprecision. Despite these advantages, there remains substantial room for improvement in ensuring logical consistency and in adequately capturing dependencies between interval bounds. In this paper, we propose applying Interpolative Boolean algebra (IBA) as an algebraic framework for IVFS theory. Specifically, we define conjunction and disjunction operations for IVFS that are directly derived from IBA. These logical operations are based on the generalized product, an operator that can be realized by any t-norm whose result is greater than or equal to the minimum t-norm and less than or equal to the Lukasiewicz t-norm. Finally, we investigate the validity of the laws of contradiction and excluded middle within the proposed approach.

Title: Unveiling Patterns in the Internal Environment for Corporate Entrepreneurship Development: A Comparative SEM Analysis of Public and Private Sectors Authors: Anđelić, Ognjen; Rakićević, Zoran; Maričić, Milica Abstract: This paper examines how the organizational environment for Corporate Entrepreneurship (CE) differs across organizational forms in the public and private sectors. The Corporate Entrepreneurship Assessment Instrument (CEAI) was administered to 682 respondents in the Republic of Serbia, which is institutionally and economically considered a valid representative of Southeastern European economies. The partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) was employed to assess how five dimensions—Management support, Rewards/Reinforcement, Work discretion/Autonomy, Time availability, and Organizational boundaries—affect the CE environment. Further, using a multi-group analysis algorithm, differences between models in the public and private sectors were explored. The results reveal significant differences in both the impact and values of the CEAI dimensions across organization types. These findings offer valuable insights for developing CE support strategies tailored to different organizations. The presented approach provides guidance to decision-makers seeking to avoid reliance on generic strategies largely shaped by private-sector experiences in developed countries.
