Abstract: Islamska civilizacija je bila v srednjem veku mogočna kulturna in politična sila. V številnih vidikih je pomembno vplivala na kulturni, znanstveni in politični razvoj Evrope ter navdihovala številne zahodne raziskovalce in popotnike, zlasti v 19. in zgodnjem 20. stoletju. V odnosu do islamske civilizacije sodobni zahodni diskurz izraža veliko mero strahu in nezaupanja. Razlogi za tako stanje so med drugim v nepoznavanju islama ter v neobjektivnem pisanju o tej civilizaciji. Za bolj uravnotežen diskurz o islamu sta potrebna poznavanje in civilizacijski dialog. Prispevek obravnava diskurz o islamski civilizaciji v povezavi s slovenskimi in ameriškimi učbeniki. V slovenskih učnih načrtih za zgodovino je v 7. razredu islamski civilizaciji namenjena le izbirna tema. Spričo množice izbirnih tem to pomeni, da se zaradi drugih zanimivih tem le redki učitelji odločijo za obravnavo islamske civilizacije. V ameriškem kontekstu pa so učbeniki kritizirani zaradi naklonjenosti islamu. Pristop, ki ga priporoča American Textbook Council, ne pripomore k razumevanju in spoštovanju islamske civilizacije, ker islam v določeni meri enači s fundamentalizmom in nanj meče senco krivde stereotipnih obtožb. V članku zagovarjamo stališče, da je tak pristop destruktiven, kajti javnost na podlagi stereotipov in nepoznavanja islam vse pogosteje identificira z ekstremističnim fundamentalizmom. Takšno podajanje zgodovine islama bi odnose med islamom in Zahodom v bodoče utegnilo le še poslabšati.

Abstract: A textbook is one of the most important learning tools by which the learner encounters upon entering the school. It is bound to the curriculum and syllabus. Pupils use it as a guide during the learning process in the classes and also for their independent work outside the classrooms. Nowadays, we are encouraged to use modern ICT, which is omnipresent in schools as a result of a quick pace of life and technological progress. Despite the increasing usage of modern ICT in the educational process, a textbook still remains one of the main teaching tools for educational work. With its long tradition in history it remains in step with the times. It helps pupils not only to acquire the necessary skills, but also to develop mental skills, and critical and creative thinking. The theoretical part of the master’s thesis explains the concept of teaching and its purpose as well as the functions and activities of the lessons. Moreover, it describes the factors of the educational process, lists its types and explains who the subjects of the educational process are. The thesis also deals with the structural components of teaching: aims, contents, teaching environment, time and means. The research focuses on the textbook as one of the most important methodical-didactic materials and on the external and internal structure of selected textbooks. In addition, the empirical part of the thesis presents a detailed analysis of pre-prepared criteria.

Abstract: Over recent years, universities have been incorporating sustainable development (SD) into their systems, including their curricula. This article analyses the incorporation of SD into the curricula of chemical and environmental engineering or technology bachelor degrees at universities in the European Union (EU) and European Free Trade Association (EFTA) states. Available textbooks of some courses were analysed regarding their content and pedagogical-didactical perspectives based on a revised Bloom's taxonomy of cognitive domains. The research showed that both the universities and textbooks reviewed have room for improvement regarding SD incorporation into their curricula.
