 "NO Hate Speech on Internet" is a Croatian national campaign which implementation is coordinated by the Ministry of Social Policy and Youth, in cooperation with the National Committee.

Furthermore, in order to encourage young people to get actively involved in spreading campaign’s values and messages, a number of online and offline features and activities are prepared, such as campaigns website, campaigns Facebook profile and official video.  Also, Ministry continuously disseminates promotional materials (T-shirts and badges) and provides financial support for NGO’s projects linked with the campaign. More activities, regarding schools and students, are planned in the future.

The project I am currently involved with is establishing the community for all members of educational context. The main goal is to create a place where teachers can find news, materials and make professional relationship with each other.
We have three elements for the community:

• The Portal "Suradnici u učenju" (Partners in learning) as the centre and starting point of all activities, with instructions, news, educational materials and repository for digital magazine and webinars.
• A Digital magazine as a place where teachers can publish their articles.
• Webinars as online seminars which members can attend in real time or watch the recorded material later.

Pogled kroz prozor (A View through the window) is published monthly on the web with newsletter to members, and I'm the editor in chief. Pogled contains articles about: How to start a project, Up to date strategies to teach children with special needs, Innovative teacher forum, How to use Photosynth in class, How to make a school calendar, How to organize and prepare for the school start,Reports from conferences in Croatia nad abroad,, How to be active attendee of webinars, Cybersafety for kids and other interesting themes.
You can read all articles in Pogled kroz prozor in RSS feed on the left side.

Webinars - online seminars about different topics with Croatian and International lecturers and audience.

During 2007 Gordana Sokol and I created online educational materials (course) for learning programming in programming language Logo. Those materials contain themes from school curriculum of Informatics for grades 5 and 6.
Programming language Logo is chosen for its simplicity for use and pertinence for children.

The course is awarded with Comenius EduMedia Seal 2008.
Course is available on "Nikola Tesla" Croatian national portal for distance learning and Moodle. You can view webct version on webct.os.carnet.hr, use username and password gost3.

In school I teach math and I use textbooks I wrote. Textbooks are for grades 5. – 8. and all are named “Petica”. Petica (five) is highest mark in our primary school education, and children like that name. I wrote Petica 5, 6, 7 and 8 with Dubravka Glasnović Gracin, Minja Stepić, Zlata Ćurković and Sonja Banić.
We enjoyed working in a team while we are creating those textbooks. Petica has multimedial part –a CD with presentations, flash animations and lots of interactive practices for students.

One part of Petica 6 (Linear equations) is published online on those pages. You can read examples, exercises and solve tasks online.
