English is a „lingua franca” nowadays in the world. One of the EU’s aims is that the people speak in Europe at least 3 languages. It is problem in Hungary, because the country seems to be homogeneous in the view of mother languages, and there is only one schooltype in the educational system that gives an opportunity to learn two foreign languages. Krisztina researchs in these situation how the teachers can motivate the children to learn in the school German (too). She made a research with own questionnaires for children and teachers as well about these topic in two county of Hungary. The analysis of data are in progress yet. |

5. Description and results of research (in detail, max. 1500 characters) |
The concept of the state and the nation has recently come to the forefront of the political and scientific interest, because the nation-states that replaced the bipolar political model of the second half of the 20th century are able to represent their interests in a multipolar system more effectively. However, a clear distinction should be made between the two concepts, since it is a historical fact that states were able to emerge without nations and nations were formed without the framework of a state. According to theories interpreting the issue of modernization, the social model of capitalism “gave birth” to national consciousness, while industrialization and urbanization played a key role in this process. Throughout the process, symbols and rites were created that allowed to describe the new borderlines of the “imagined community”. The nation-state, which represents the combination of the state and the nation, is built on the community's need to govern itself within the framework of a state it has established. In our research, we search for the answer to the question what role the public education events connected to the national culture receive in the process of building a minority nation. Basically, we determine the community-building power of the events connected to the Rákóczi cult. Our question is: what role does the Rákóczi cult play in preserving the identity of the minority Hungarians in Transcarpathia? During the Transcarpathian study, we have conducted interviews with the persons who organize the culture in the region. While creating the focus group, we do our best to ensure that the complete areas inhabited by the Hungarian community are included in the study. In the first step, the towns and villages are grouped according to their ethnic structure. We plan to develop three types: towns and villages with Hungarian majority, with parity and with Ukrainian majority. We will conduct interviews with the organizers of all three types of towns and villages, and using such interviews, we will be able to reveal the specific problems and results during the research. The primary purpose of the survey is to examine the impact of the events, connected to the Rákóczi cult (celebrations, commemorations), on the preservation of the national system of values and the national identity, and to explore the background factors that affect them. |

We explain the relationship between poverty and lack of mobility, review the link between agriculture and local mobility, predominantly through the functions of rural businesses. We explore the return migration of youths, especially those who move back to their village after a long period of education and/or job search. We revisit structural theories that connect migration to different types of capital and shed light on the impact of changing perceptions on rural life We have analysed the motives, as well as attractive and repulsive factors. The interviews convincingly certify that the decision about moving or staying in one place is a complex, multifactorial process. In this, employment opportunities have an undeniably important, however, not completely exclusive role. It is correlated with the demographic characteristics, gender, age, family status, labour market parameters, education level, financial characteristics, individual peculiarities, health status of the individual, as well as with its attitude towards changes, ethnic background, and its contentment concerning the given settlement. |

5. Description and results of research (in detail, max. 1500 characters) |
Domestic education practice has a hard time dealing with socialisation of roma children, partly because the lack of cooperation between the school and the family. Most of the pedagogues – unconfessedly though – have latent preconceptions towards roma people: they overestimate their numbers, and in their wording there is an equal sign between the categories of “roma” and “problematic” children. Educationists methodically support and agree with desegregation endeavours in educational politics, however when these are to be implemented in their own institutions, pleading to their lack of competence they would rather leave it to the already overladen schools specialized to the education of children with disadvantages, thus slowly creating or strengthening the practice of segregation. Amongst the students of higher education institutions in Eastern Hungary, preconceptions towards roma people are quite strong. The results of the survey confirmed that students have gained the most profit from meeting roma children and adults, from the recognition of lives of roma people and from working together with them. Our research results convincingly demonstrate that students gladly face professionally well-built and laid-out challenges even if these incorporate meeting with such social groups, towards which they have preconceptions. These programs are perfectly fit for changing these negative stereotypes. |

5. Description and results of research (in detail, max. 1500 characters) |
On the basis of appropriate theoretical knowledge and as widely as possible after practical testing, we will be familiar with the current and future users of LEGO® Education kits. LEGO® Education Kits motivize learners not only through the game, the "grazing" experience, but also help to improve communication, algorithmic thinking, and emotional, social, and creative competences. The essence of the LEGO® Education method is that the children make an exploring, creative activity. Our aim is to present the pedagogical background of the LEGO® Education method, in that we focus on the children’s exploring and play activity, the method and some thematic sets. The ongoing and increasingly rapid change in the world implies, among other things, the need for a continual renewal of education. As one of the tools in education and training, LEGO® Education kits are used to help not only mathematics and science subjects, but also native and foreign language education, but even history can diversify be. In early learning solutions we investigate, how to help prepare young children for school and life by building their social skills and for them to begin their STEAM journey early on. For primary school students LEGO® Education provide the engaging, hands-on experiences students need to explore core STEAM concepts and link them to the world. Solutions grow with students as they problem-solve and discover how science, technology, engineering, and math affect their everyday life. In secondary schoool hands-on experiences stimulate communication, creativity, collaboration, and critical thinking skills. We want to explore, which are the best ways to develop this skills. |

5. Description and results of research (in detail, max. 1500 characters) |
In case of the primary school students (11-14 year old students), from the given reactions on school bullying the most frequent behavior pattern- without reference to genders -was helper participant. From the components of helper participant, reconciling interposition seemed to be the most commonly used behavior pattern. From the reactions on school bullying, victim behavior pattern was the least typical of the sample. At the age of 11-12, both the girls and the boys became victims of school bullying approximately at the same level. From the age of 13-14, we found this behavior pattern more typical of girls, which was not significant in the case of either of the age groups. Examining the individual components of victim behavior pattern, the situation was different. In case of affective reaction (emotional effect of the insult) we find significant differences in all age groups, the girls seem to be more liable to it than the boys. The primary school boys seemed to be more liable to physical reaction (bodily reaction |
