Sažetak
The contemporary school distinguishes itself with its proficiency in successfully preparing and leading the educational process, as well as in selecting the appropriate procedures, methods, forms of interaction, media and technology for doing so. Opening the school to the needs of youth and children also after regular classroom activities is important so that, in addition, the school may spread its educational role to the free time of its pupils. Thus, extracurricular activities are, and will remain, an efficient site upon which contemporary educational goals can be realised, and a site on which contemporary teaching strategies that aim towards the pupils' development and progress are successfully implemented. By participating in variously themed extracurricular activities, the pupil is given the opportunity to utilise various work strategies through autodidacticism, active participation and independent (self-)development. The use of modern strategies organises the pupils' activities in a less restrained fashion so that they may, by connecting theory and practice, expand and deepen the knowledge they have acquired, develop their skills, and also become active participants in cultural events in their environment. Using a research approach based on a sample of 257 leaders of extracurricular activities in the junior grades of primary school, the aim of this work was to ascertain the leaders' views on the significance of organisation and implementation as determinants in extracurricular activities, on the stimulation of active learning through contemporary strategies pertaining to the areas of interest in question, and on the determination of stimulating factors that could contribute to the promotion of active learning in extracurricular activities.
