The use of educational technologies to help learn and teach has evolved from computer-aided presentations to educational robots, as the Ozobot and Pepper presented in this book. Many schools and institutions worldwide are already using robots in the classroom. We are witnessing rapid technological advancements. This progress is due to the term "digitalisation". The book is written on 238 pages with 49 B/W Illustrations. The book is composed of eleven chapters named: 1. Introduction 2. Theories of Learning 3. The Interactive Mind 4. What Makes a Robot? 5. The Robot as a Tool 6. The Robot as a Social Agent 7. Deployment Requirements 8. Applications 9. Attitudes towards Robots 10. Ethics 11. Research Methods in Educational Robotics. It has a great significance for teachers, students, and society.

AI is a branch of computer science that emphasises the development of intelligent machines that think and work like humans. Examples of AI applications are speech recognition, natural language processing, image recognition etc. The term ML represents the application of AI to enable systems' ability to learn and improve based on experience, without the explicit need for programming, using various problem-solving algorithms. For example, in machine learning, computers learn based on the data they process, not program instructions

"The Feeling Economy: How Artificial Intelligence Is Creating the Era of Empathy", a book written by distinguished business scholars, professors Rust and Huang from the University of Maryland and National Taiwan University, looks at the ramifications of developing AI for the population. To help demystify the levels of intelligence required of AI, the book classifies different types of economy using three concepts: mechanical (physical), thinking, and feeling economy regarding the relationship with AI primarily, but not exclusively.

The Republic of Serbia is about to acquire candidate status to join the European Union. The strategic concept of the Republic of Serbia is to become a full member of the European Union as soon as possible. As a consequence of this, food companies from the Republic of Serbia intending to survive and succeed in the big market of the European Union (a market of several hundred million people) must be prepared on time for what European consumers demand. The European consumer is looking for, above all, a product that is reliable and safe in environmental terms. Every food company in Serbia that wants to satisfy European consumers must give green marketing practices an important place. To meet the stipulations of green marketing, a food product must be made from natural substances, have recyclable packaging, and move through an environmentally sustainable and safe system of distribution to its final consumers. The average European consumer knows what he wants in the ecological sense and requires that the food products he consumes meet those standards. He is looking for a "green" food product. Countries like the Republic of Serbia, with primary agricultural production, food, beverages and other production industries based on the use of natural and ecologically pure substances and materials are the countries that can gain a significant competitive advantage in this area of the European market. The goal of this paper is to show that green marketing can be a strategic comparative advantage for food companies from the Republic of Serbia entering the European Union's broader market. Keywords: green marketing, comparative advantage, food companies, Republic of Serbia, European Union

In the transition of political society that we all witness today, an important place is given to civil society, which exists when individuals and groups are free to form organizations that operate independently from the state and citizens. Civil society is the venue for the citizens and alternative groups and organizations (interest groups, NGOs, new social movements) through which citizens put pressure on government agencies to fight for more freedom and autonomy. The provision of sufficient funds, grants, donations, scholarships for activists and users is crucial to the survival of every non-profit organization. Citizens' associations play a special role in societies-in-transition in Central and Eastern Europe, as indeed in all countries, because they act in areas where the government has withdrawn, supplementing an inadequate civil service in helping to improve social and environmental damage. They shore up the gaps in government regulation, and they contribute to the democratization process. They help people in need, they address social problems, and provide a way to organize many groups of citizens. While civil associations perform a wide range of programs that fall into different categories, foundations and corporate donors provide capital for social ventures that support the association's activities. The work raises directly the question of whether for companies of today, Corporate Social Responsibility represents a cleverly designed unethical marketing strategy or genuine concern on the part of the donor. Keywords: Corporate Social Responsibility, marketing strategy, civil society, funding

This article does not aim to erase the border, rather vague, between natural and artificial languages, but to offer the researcher in the field of language analysis a useful tool for their logical generation and interpretation. After processing the available literature and setting the theoretical framework, a case study was conducted concerning the application of the functional approach in natural languages, and the obtained results indicate the following conclusion: The only difference between functional and natural language is that the condition of interrupting recursive calls may be external to the calling auto function in the case of natural language. Basically, once the message is understood or transmitted, it leaves the loop, this aspect being part of the communication protocol between people

Government and nongovernmental organizations need national and global estimates on the descriptive epidemiology of common oral conditions for policy planning and evaluation. The aim of this component of the Global Burden of Disease study was to produce estimates on prevalence, incidence, and years lived with disability for oral conditions from 1990 to 2017 by sex, age, and countries. In addition, this study reports the global socioeconomic pattern in burden of oral conditions by the standard World Bank classification of economies as well as the Global Burden of Disease Socio-demographic Index. The findings show that oral conditions remain a substantial population health challenge. Globally, there were 3.5 billion cases (95% uncertainty interval [95% UI], 3.2 to 3.7 billion) of oral conditions, of which 2.3 billion (95% UI, 2.1 to 2.5 billion) had untreated caries in permanent teeth, 796 million (95% UI, 671 to 930 million) had severe periodontitis, 532 million (95% UI, 443 to 622 million) had untreated caries in deciduous teeth, 267 million (95% UI, 235 to 300 million) had total tooth loss, and 139 million (95% UI, 133 to 146 million) had other oral conditions in 2017. Several patterns emerged when the World Bank's classification of economies and the Socio-demographic Index were used as indicators of economic development. In general, more economically developed countries have the lowest burden of untreated dental caries and severe periodontitis and the highest burden of total tooth loss. The findings offer an opportunity for policy makers to identify successful oral health strategies and strengthen them; introduce and monitor different approaches where oral diseases are increasing; plan integration of oral health in the agenda for prevention of noncommunicable diseases; and estimate the cost of providing universal coverage for dental care.
