Povzetek

Današnji ritem in način življenja sta neposredno povezana z informacijsko-komunikacijsko tehnologijo (IKT). V svetu globalizacije in hitrih sprememb je IKT v šolah pomemben dejavnik družbenega razvoja.
Prispevek obravnava vpletenost IKT v organizacijo šolske prehrane po spremembah, ki jih je prinesel novi Zakon o šolski prehrani. Predstavljena sta dva koncepta evidentiranja dijakov pri prijavljanju in odjavljanju na šolsko malico: s čipom in na spletu. Primerjava neodjavljenih in neprevzetih obrokov malice na obeh šolah pokaže na velike razlike med sistemoma evidentiranja v prid spletnemu načinu prijave in odjave malice. Kratka anketa med dijaki na ESIC Kranj, kjer za prijavo dijaki uporabljajo elektronski čip, za odjavljanje malice pa elektronsko pošto, je pokazala, da bi bilo odjavljanje doslednejše, če bi lahko dijaki uporabljali spletni način prijave in odjave.

Ključne besede: evidentiranje malice, neodjavljena malica, elektronski čip, svetovni splet, e-pošta.

Abstract

The pace and way of life today is directly connected with the use of ICT. Because of globalization and fast world changes the use of ICT has become an important part of school social development.
The article talks about the organization of school meals with the help of ICT, after the changes, introduced by the latest passed law dealing with school meals (Act on School Diet). There are presented two ways of how to keep records of registrations and cancellations of students' meal orders; with the help of the micro chip or the internet. The comparison of the number of uncancelled or not picked up meals at both schools shows a big difference between the two systems of keeping the meal number records in favour of the internet registration and cancellation.
A brief survey among students of ESIC (School Centre of Economics and Trade, Kranj) Kranj, where the electronic chip is used for registration and e-mail for cancellation, shows that cancellation would be more consistent if students could use the internet for both – registration and cancellation.

Key words: recording of school meal orders, uncancelled meals, the electronic chip, the world wide web, e-mail.
