Rapid changes in technology are reflected into all walks of education as well as language learning and teaching situations. In line with these changes, studies into the integration of mobile phones into language learning contexts, particularly to facilitate vocabulary acquisition, have spawned. However, learners’ perceptions regarding the impact of the integration of mobile technologies are not fully explored. This study aims at discovering learners’ perceptions of mobile phone integration in translation classes. Twenty-seven learners studying at an English Language and Literature department in a north-western Turkish university were sent SMS text messages including the target words before, during and after the translation courses for 6 weeks. Nine students who were selected based on their frequency of response rate, 3 the most frequent respondents, 3 average respondents and the least 3 respondents respectively, were interviewed. A content analysis of the semi-structured interviews reveals information about the learners’ mobile telephone use and their perceptions of mobile phone use for language learning purposes. The findings reveal that learners in general hold a positive opinion of mobile phone integration although some hesitations have been voiced. A discussion of learners’ perspectives on the current and future use of mobile phones is provided.

The paper focuses on the social situation and social practices of female care migrants (at the age of 50 and above) from the South Moravia (the region of Mikulov, Břeclav) who migrate for work to Austria as domestic workers-caregivers for seniors at regular intervals (circular migration). The main aim of the text is to argue that translocal female migrants paradoxically perceive their labour migration as a specific form of emancipation, despite the fact that they work in the so-called live-in-service jobs (where they live and work in private households) and often experience indignity. While in Austria they work in gendered and very demanding jobs with low wages, circular care migration provides them with the possibility to extend their gender power in the transforming Czech society. There is thus a paradox in that while they are marginalized in Austria, they are empowered on the Czech side of the border. This is achieved through paid reproductive work and better access to income, which leads to personal consumption based on their own interests and overall personal benefit. Special attention is paid to new forms of translocal care chains and new forms of these women’s partner cohabitation (living apart together).

In recent years Prosecco, the renowned Italian sparkling wine, has become an increasingly popular product globally, leading to a massive expansion of viticulture within Prosecco's production zones (north-eastern Italy). Through qualitative and quantitative methods, this paper provides the first empirical analysis of the landscape and land-use modifications generated by the planting of new vineyards. Specifically, it seeks to reconstruct both the long-term historical factors that brought about the emergence of the specific winescape (today a candidate for becoming a UNESCO World Heritage Site), and the recent conversion of croplands, grassland, and woodland to wine-growing areas. The landscape, particularly on the plains, is radically changing due to the new, large geometric plantations that are perfectly suited to mechanical viticulture. This paper's conclusions argue for overall regulation of such a booming monoculture in order to effectively harmonize the production needs of wine-growers with the needs of other land-uses (mostly residential), and to protect the historical landscape patterns and ecological biodiversity.

This article focuses on welfare surveillance as a sociological sub-discipline and a specific issue that has emerged in the past two decades in relation to the neoliberal revolution and the transformation of social systems in the West. The paper has three main goals: (1) a theoretical conceptualisation of welfare surveillance based on an analysis of existing empirical research; (2) an analysis of socio-practical manifestations and impacts of welfare surveillance; and (3) a contextualisation of the implementation of welfare surveillance within the Czech social milieu during recent social reforms. Within the scope of the first two goals, the author shows that welfare surveillance is theoretically construed along the lines of a specific combination of social justice and neoliberal governmentality, and that welfare surveillance enables the application of specific illiberal practices to welfare applicants and recipients in order to effectively discipline and normalise them, which results in the stigmatisation and criminalisation of recipients. Given that there is relatively little research on surveillance in the Czech Republic, the article opens with an introduction to the issue of surveillance.

Proponowany artykuł ma charakter badawczy. Przybliżono w nim wyniki badań przeprowadzonych wśród zespołów nauczycielskich (rad pedagogicznych) oraz innowatorów edukacyjnych. Ich podstawowym celem było zebranie opinii na temat codziennej pracy nauczycieli, a przede wszystkim doświadczanych przez nich trudności i barier, rozpoznawanych zasobów psychospołecznych, potrzeb oraz obaw związanych z wykonywaną pracą. Na 42 radach pedagogicznych zastosowano swobodne wywiady grupowe oraz narzędzia coachingowe w celu moderowania dyskusji prowadzonych w dużych zespołach nauczycielskich. Innym typem badań były swobodne wywiady z innowatorami rozpoznawalnymi w polskim środowisku edukacyjnym. Poproszono ich o opowiedzenie o swojej drodze zawodowej, a istotnymi wątkami narracji były te związane ze środowiskiem pracy (trudności, obawy, zasoby psychospołeczne). W części badawczej artykułu przytoczono wyniki badań, które dotyczą doświadczanych przez nauczycieli barier i trudności w pracy. Postawiono hipotezę, że przywoływane przez nauczycieli trudności de facto utrudniają wprowadzanie i realizowanie działań twórczych i innowacyjnych nie tylko na poziomie klasy, ale i całego systemu szkolnego. W artykule dokonano klasyfikacji barier doświadczanych przez rozmówców, szukano też punktów wspólnych oraz różnic.

The article is of a research report, presenting the results of studies carried out in teaching teams/school councils and educational innovators. The basic aim of the studies was to collect teachers’ opinions on their everyday work and, more precisely, on the barriers/difficulties they experience, the recognized psycho-social resources, the needs and fears related to their work. In the studies carried out among 42 teaching councils, group unstructured interviews were applied and some coaching tools to moderate the discussions in bigger groups. The second example of research presents the results of unstructured interviews carried out among innovators recognized in the Polish educational circles. The innovators were asked to talk about their career path and there were certain significant narration elements related to their working environment (difficulties, fears, psycho-social resources). In the empirical part of the article, the results of studies are quoted which concern the barriers/difficulties experienced by the teachers. The authors put forward the hypothesis that the barriers mentioned by the teachers are in fact obstacles in introducing and realizing creative and innovative activities, not only at the level of the class, but also within the whole school system. The researchers present a classification of those barriers experienced by their interlocutors and look for some common elements, as well as differences.
