Learning and knowledge acquisition with new forms of learning in the education process is based on one"s construction and deconstruction of meaning and the learner"s interaction with the world in a certain social and cultural environment. Each person is responsible for their own learning and how to manage it. As active learning is based on independent and active engagement in the teaching and learning process, finding and gathering information from various sources is an important part of any form of learning and teaching, particularly in the academic environment. The aim of this article is to present the sources of scientific information and knowledge and their classification and significance for the construction of knowledge in the academic environment. The presentation of different sources of scientific information and knowledge is a useful guide for finding appropriate information sources.

          Dunja Labović Begović, Andrej Raspor

During research we designed an SWP model and presented how to determine the complexity of tasks based on the required competencies, the criteria for determining the quality of work and the method of recording effective work.
