Exploring Theories and Competencies of Innovation in Engineering Education: A Scoping Review
The unprecedented dynamics of global technological development require 21st-century engineers to possess not only deep technical expertise but also a multifaceted set of innovation competencies. While higher education institutions are increasingly committing to fostering a culture of innovation, there is often a lack of conceptual clarity regarding which theories and competencies are most relevant to engineering curricula. This scoping review exa…

Identifying Urban Heritage Facility Management Support Services Considering World Heritage Sites
Whether public sectors or private institutions, in-house or outsourced, building-level or urban-scale, the critical role of facility management (FM) is to support the core business activities of an organization in accomplishing its objectives. Through the services it manages and provides, FM impacts people’s health, well-being, and quality of life. While there is no difficulty in defining a corporation, organization, or institution’s core busines…
Renovating the retrofit process: People-centered business models and co-created partnerships for low-energy buildings in Norway
Building energy retrofit is not only an efficient approach to increase energy efficiency through technical installations, but also has great potential to improve social acceptance through co-creation. However, there are many existing residential buildings with low energy efficiency in need of retrofit, which is currently not being done. This paper aims to examine the barriers to conducting the residential building retrofit and co-created a suitab…

Medgeneracijsko sobivanje mladih in starih: Medkulturna primerjava
V članku raziskujemo, kaj vpliva na podaljšano sobivanje \nmladih v skupnem gospodinjstvu s starši. Zanima nas, ali \nmladi menijo, da bi jim država z regulativnimi ukrepi mo\n-\nrala pri osamosvojitvi pomagati. Izhajamo iz hipoteze, da \nbivanje mladih in starih v razširjeni družini ni pokazatelj \ndobrega medgeneracijskega sožitja in solidarnosti, ampak \nprej izraža širše družbene in kulturne procese, ki uravna\n-\nvajo življenje vse družbe in…
Intergenerational living: An intercultural comparison
This article explores the factors behind young adults living in shared households with their parents for an extended period of time. We were interested in finding out if they think the state should implement regulatory measures to help them become independent. Our hypothesis is that the young and old living together as an extended family is not an indicator of intergenerational symbiosis and solidarity, but rather a reflection of wider social and…
Qualitative criteria of urbanism and brands: A comparative analysis
Interactivity, multidisciplinarity, synergy and interdependence are all concepts that are clearly intertwined with managing every responsible city and its leaders. Urbanism plays a significant role among the disciplines that affect the uniqueness and competitive position of a city. None of the cities that are successful in a competitive environment would be a noteworthy and powerful brand if they did not possess recognisable, singular and distinc…
Cultural factors affecting urban planners’ intentions to regulate public space in Prishtina, Kosovo
Kulturni dejavniki lahko vplivajo na to, kako urbanist ureja prostor. Kulturna identiteta ali ideologija pomembno vpliva na urbanistično načrtovanje, vendar je te vplive težko izmeriti, zato se pogosto spregledajo. V raziskavi preučujemo, kateri dejavniki vplivajo na urbanistovo percepcijo v Prištini, ki se izraža tudi v namenu njegovega oblikovanja in ustvarjanja prostora. Dejavnike smo povzeli iz prejšnjih raziskav ter vključujejo narodno ident…
Primerjalna analiza kvalitativnih kriterijev urbanizma in tržne znamke
Interaktivnost, multidisciplinarnost, sinergija in soodvisnost so pojmi, ki se očitno vpletajo v upravljanje vsakega odgovornega mesta in njegovih voditeljev. Med disciplinami, ki pomembno vplivajo na edinstvenost in konkurenčnost nekega mesta, ima urbanizem pomembno vlogo. Nobeno od mest, ki so uspešna v konkurenčnem prostoru, ne bi bilo pomembna in močna znamka mesta, če ne bi bilo prepoznavnih, edinstvenih in značilnih elementov urbanizma, ki …

The effects of cultural identity or ideology on urban planning are significant, but are often overlooked because they are difficult to quantify. This study verifies which factors affect planners’ perceptions in Prishtina, which are further reflected in their intentions behind designing and producing space. The factors are adopted from previous stu…
The external expectations of potential real estate buyers in Slovenia and Japan
Znanja, veščine in kompetence za urejanje prostora
Skladno s tehnološkim in z znanstvenim napredkom ter vse večjo kompleksnostjo družbenih procesov se je tudi na področju urejanja prostora pojavila potreba po interdisciplinarnosti znanj, veščin in kompetenc posameznika. Proces urejanja prostora namreč vključuje potrebo po poznavanju različnih strokovnih in znanstvenih področij, od bolj umetniško usmerjenih, prek socioloških do popolnoma inženirsko-tehničnih vej in ekonomsko-pravnih področij. Tako…

Sinergični učinek opazovalca grajenega okolja
Izziv sodobnega časa ni vezan samo na hiter tempo življenja, veliko obveznosti in čim večjo učinkovitost v delovnem procesu, ampak je tudi v dojemanju grajenega in naravnega okolja v vsakodnevnem ritmu. Kolikokrat smo se pri hitenju s sestanka na sestanek zalotili, da nas zmotijo težko dostopna lokacija, zasedenost parkirišč, slaba vzdrževanost prostorov, neurejena klimatizacija. Po drugi strani se nam pogled spočije na zelenih parkovnih nasadih,…
The synergetic effect of the observer on the built environment
The challenge of modern times is not only tied to the fast pace of life, many responsibilities and high effectiveness in the working process, but also to perception of the built and natural environment in one’s daily rhythm. While rushing from one engagement to another, we often stop to complain and vent our dismay over difficult accesses, full parking lots, poorly maintained places, bad air-conditioning. On the other hand we rest when watching g…
