AbstractThe educational goal of the Kanazawa Institute of Technology (henceforth, KIT) is to develop innovative and selfdirected engineers. KIT developed a new curriculum, of which main pillars are engineering design education and engineering ethics education, and established an innovative facility “Factory for Dreams & Ideas” (henceforth, “Yumekobo”, which is the original Japanese name for the factory), to achieve its educational goal. Assessment of educational objectives and data are discussed in the paper. Students developed original, viable, and ethical design solutions in engineering design courses using either appropriate technology, advanced technology, or a suitable combination of both. Students' understanding and behaviour with regards to engineering design and engineering ethics advanced steadily during the courses. Students, who actively worked on Yumekobo projects, developed their technical competencies and professional skills.

In 1987 ETHZ, the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, first offered a degree course in environmental sciences. The curriculum is based upon a comprehensive view of the environment and its systems. The first two years of the programme cover a multidisciplinary basic education in mathematics, natural and social sciences. For their advanced education in the fifth to nineth semesters the students select one of four science disciplines (Chemistry/Microbiology, Physics, Biology or Environmental Hygiene) and one of four environmental systems (Aquatic Systems, Atmosphere, Terrestrial Systems or Anthroposphere). The education in natural sciences is accompanied by a compulsory case study, which is implemented as a didactic tool to teach ecological problem-solving, and courses in environmental social sciences and environmental technology. During the professional practical training of about four months, students gain insight into the constraints of a professional environment. In the tenth semester a diploma project - equivalent to a master's thesis - is carried out.

The Graduate Program in Architectural Acoustics has been constantly advanced from its inception in 1998 with an ambitious mission of educating future experts and leaders in architectural acoustics, due to the rapid pace of change in the fields of architectural-, physical-, and psycho-acoustics, and noise-control engineering. Since years the program’s pedagogy using “STEM” (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) methods has been proven to be effective and productive, including intensive, integrative hands-on experimental components that integrate architectural acoustics theory and practice. The graduate program has recruited graduate students from a variety of disciplines including individuals with B.S., B.Arch., or B.A. degrees in Mathematics, Physics, Engineering, Architecture, Electronic Media, Sound Recording, Music and related fields. Graduate students under this pedagogy and research environment have been succeed in the rapidly changing field. RPI’s Graduate Program in Architectural Acoustics has since graduated more than 120 graduates with both M.S. and Ph.D. degrees. Under the guidance of the faculty members they have also actively contributed to the program’s research in architectural acoustics, communication acoustics, psycho-acoustics, signal processing in acoustics as well as our scientific exploration at the intersection of cutting edge research and traditional architecture/music culture. This paper illuminates the evolution and growth of the Graduate Program.

ABSTRACT Background One of the most important mainstays in disaster management is preparedness. In partnership with the International Trauma & Disaster Institute, Massachusetts General Hospital, Boston, and the Panamerican Trauma Society (PTS), the Brazilian Society of Integrated Assistance to the Traumatized (SBAIT) has been promoting, for the last 4 years, education and training through the “Advanced Disaster Medical Response” (ADMR) course for health care providers. The aim of this study is to evaluate the impact of the ADMR course on medical staff learning. Materials and methods Between 2011 and 2014, 23 ADMR courses (each of 8 hours duration) were conducted in Brazil. Attendees answered a pretest and posttest survey to evaluate their experience in disaster medicine and acquired knowledge during the course. Each test consisted of the same 10 objective questions, resulting in a score of 0 to 10. Attendees had to do both tests in order to qualify for a course certificate. Results In 4 years, 1,398 students participated in the courses. Participants were predominantly physicians and medical students of the male gender. Posttest scores were significantly higher than those of the pretests: 9 (±1.22) and 7 (±1.67) respectively, representing an increase of 34.1% in acquired knowledge. Students with prior experience in disaster medical response (p<0.05) or participation in multiple-casualty simulations (p<0.05) or theoretical training (p<0.05) scored better on pretests than those without similar experience. For every kind of prior experience, posttest scores were higher than pretests (p<0.05). Conclusion The ADMR course is an effective learning tool for medical personnel and health care providers, increasing knowledge of disaster medical response.

In this paper, we introduce engineering education at the Department of Advanced Robotics, Chiba Institute of Technology. At the department, we try to teach useful knowledge and provide laboratory work leading to useful experience. One purpose of the curriculum is to enable students to design a system with a mechanism, control circuit, and computer programming. We then provide many lectures related to system design – control engineering, mechanics, mechanical dynamics, electronic circuits, information engineering, mechanical drawing, and so on – and provide laboratory work on related theory in the lectures. Laboratory work helps students understand abstract theories that are difficult to understand based on desk study alone. This laboratorywork continues fromthe first to fourth years. In addition, we provide many project studies. Some students try to develop their own systems through extracurricular studies. Through the project, students obtain much knowledge and experience. After introducing our curriculum, we discuss the results of this curriculum.

Full textAbstract:
A revised ten-semester curriculum in environmental engineering was introduced at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in 1998 which is based on 10 years of experience with a previous less focused curriculum. The scope of the new curriculum is rather broad and includes sanitary engineering, water resources management, soil pollution control and resource and waste management. Air pollution is not fully developed yet. Based on broad basic studies (first four semesters) the professional studies (semesters 5 to 9) require the students to choose two out of four possible areas of specialization. These studies are followed in credit groups which combine advanced courses and extensive project work designed to reach scientific depth in an exemplary fashion. There is an exchange of teaching units between Environmental Engineering and Environmental Natural Sciences but the two curricula are quite different and lead to significantly different professional profiles.

Full textAbstract:
This study aimed to investigate the impact of the flipped classroom model on students’ self-efficacy and the difference in self-efficacy between males and females using this model. In order to accomplish this, 66 advanced participants were selected from a private English language institute. They were divided into two equal groups, namely experimental (flipped classroom) and control (traditional) group. The students’ self-efficacy was scored before and after the intervention with the Self-Efficacy Survey. The results indicated an increase in their average self-efficacy score with the flipped classroom while the traditional classroom decreased their average score. When the genders were analyzed separately, the males demonstrated a decrease in self-efficacy while the females indicated an increase while utilizing the flipped classroom. In light of these results, some recommendations have been made.

Graduate departments of psychology often confront the issue of how best to recruit and retain qualified minority students. Because undergraduate students seeking graduate appointments are frequently advised to gain research experience, we use this article to describe an intensive summer internship intended to strengthen the research skills of minority students. The 6-week program served honor students from a Minority Access to Research Careers program sponsored by the National Institute of Mental Health. Based on a research apprenticeship model, the internship juxtaposed didactic and experiential research components to provide a breadth of exposure to researchers and topics while achieving in-depth training in research methodology. Interns initially participated in faculty-sponsored research but later developed and implemented their own studies. We concluded that the research internship would prove valuable to all undergraduates considering advanced study in psychology.

The emotional intensities of gifted students affect not only their learning, but the way they live and see the world. This article examines the Theory of Positive Disintegration of Dabrowski (1964 , 1972) to explore the inner world of the gifted. The five levels of development and five overexcitabilities of Dabrowski represent an abundance of physical, sensual, creative, intellectual, and emotional energy which cause inner turmoil, but can result in creative endeavors. The benefits of interdisciplinary learning to meet the emotional needs of gifted students are presented with examples of interdisciplinary studies of justice and forensics. XQ Institute is introduced as a resource for interdisciplinary study and significant learning, and a XQ school Da Vinci RISE High is discussed. Another resource Teachers Network is explored with an interdisciplinary study of Story Quilting. The culminating project of this article is an interdisciplinary study of giftedness as a theme to help advanced learners better understand themselves.

Features of training specialists, bachelors, and masters in the field of atomic emission spectral analysis at the Department of Physical and Chemical Methods of Analysis [Ural Federal University (UrFU)] are considered. When training bachelors, coverage of the specialty course «Methods of atomic spectral analysis» is reduced almost by half compared to the same course for specialist. Length of practicals and research trainings is also significantly reduced. Therefore, students graduated with a bachelor degree can be incorporated into the actual practical activities of the laboratories at the enterprises and research companies only in laboratory positions. Master’s program is deeper in theoretical knowledge and research training and practicals become of particular importance. Thus, only a full cycle of two-level education can be comparable with the previous engineering training of specialists. The structure of the curriculum and features of setting up advanced training courses (additional professional education) for specialists in analytical laboratories focused in particular on a detailed study of the features of recording atomic emission spectra by the MAÉS analyzer using the ATOM program is presented. The experience of advanced training of the personnel of industrial laboratories conducted at the training centers of UrFU is described. This form of additional professional education is recommended for advanced and refresher’s training of the laboratory personnel at large enterprises.

Advances in elementary school curriculums supply theoretical lessons about environmental education; such an approach does not hold much information according to the topic, indicating that younger pupils’ level of knowledge is really depressed. In order to ensure effective environmental education, learning must be taught utilising a short piece of theoretical lesson that only offers the fundamentals and provides experiential experiments that illustrate scientific principles. Such activity gives even the weakest pupils’ the motivation to study the subject in a fun way and allows the pupils’ to learn at different levels thereby providing them with a practical and theoretical understanding of the material. Holon Institute of Technology (HIT) prides itself on its advanced academic achievements, application of innovative techniques that lead to creative teaching and new technologies. The students (Jews and Arabs) from HIT took part in action learning course that teaches environmental education by experience at Arab elementary school.Keywords: Environmental education, elementary school, Hebrew, Arabic.

The potential for personalized cancer management has long intrigued experienced researchers as well as the naïve student intern. Personalized cancer treatments based on a tumor's genetic profile are now feasible and can reveal both the cells' susceptibility and resistance to chemotherapeutic agents. In a weeklong laboratory investigation that mirrors current cancer research, undergraduate and advanced high school students determine the efficacy of common pharmacological agents through in vitro testing. Using mouse mammary tumor cell cultures treated with “unknown” drugs historically recommended for breast cancer treatment, students are introduced to common molecular biology techniques from in vitro cell culture to fluorescence microscopy. Student understanding is assessed through laboratory reports and the successful identification of the unknown drug. The sequence of doing the experiment, applying logic, and constructing a hypothesis gives the students time to discover the rationale behind the cellular drug resistance assay. The breast cancer experiment has been field tested during the past 5 yr with more than 200 precollege/undergraduate interns through the Gains in the Education of Mathematics and Science program hosted by the Walter Reed Army Institute of Research.

Abstract: Technology gives moment-to-moment openness to data, which is the reason its quality in the classroom is so fundamental. Advanced cells, PCs, and tablets are now a ubiquitous component of daily existence for understudies and educators the same. It's just normal that the utilization of innovative gadgets in the class are investigated to make significant learning encounters for understudies, everything being equal. Nowadays, it is almost hard to find a classroom that doesn't have no less than one PC in it. Fortunately, research recommends adding innovation to a classroom can positively affect instructing and learning. Using various sorts of innovation in the classroom, including a virtual study hall, makes students who are effectively drawn in with learning targets.

The study of the problem of the current state of formation of professional and pedagogical entrepreneurship of primary school teachers in continuing education aims to analyze the content, forms and methods of development of this issue of the research category of teachers in postgraduate pedagogical education. We studied the experience of Rivne Regional Institute of Postgraduate Pedagogical Education, Municipal Educational Institution "Cherkasy Regional Institute of Postgraduate Education of Teachers of Cherkasy Regional Council", Poltava Regional Institute of Postgraduate Pedagogical Education, Chernihiv Regional Institute of Postgraduate Pedagogical Education named after KD Ushinsky Regional Institute of Postgraduate Pedagogical Education, Kherson Academy of Continuing Education on the formation of professional and pedagogical entrepreneurship of teachers within the training courses for primary school teachers. The educational programs of in-service training of teachers and the subject of in-service training courses in postgraduate pedagogical education institutions, which may be related to the formation of professional and pedagogical entrepreneurship of primary school teachers, are analyzed. The analysis of educational programs of postgraduate education institutions showed that the topics of lectures and practical classes, as well as special courses for students of advanced training courses in most cases are devoted to the following issues: financial literacy of teachers; leadership and leadership in education; project method; formation of life competencies in the conditions of open educational space; critical and creative thinking of the teacher, etc. There was no educational program related to the professional and pedagogical entrepreneurship of primary school teachers. Therefore, the prospects for further research will be the development of special courses and topics included in educational programs for in-service training of primary school teachers, related to the formation of professional and pedagogical entrepreneurship.

Preventable healthcare-associated harm results in significant morbidity and mortality in the United States, costing nearly 400 000 patient lives annually. The Institute for Healthcare Improvement provides high-quality educational resources tailored for working healthcare professionals. One such resource is the Certified Professional in Patient Safety (CPPS™) review course, which equips professionals with advanced proficiency in 5 core patient safety domains. The CPPS™ certification is the only interprofessional, patient safety science credential recognized worldwide. In 2010, the Lucian Leape Institute at the National Patient Safety Foundation described the critical need for medical students to participate in patient safety solutions as well. However, equivalent patient safety credentialing remains challenging for students in the preclinical and clinical stages of training to obtain. To address this growing dilemma, the Texas College of Osteopathic Medicine (TCOM) piloted the first-of-its-kind CPPS™ course with 10 medical students to test a novel, academic-level approach to patient safety curriculum. Medical students showed large gains in performance on the post-test (83.18% ± 26.12%) compared to the pre-test (46.46% ± 27.18%) ( P < .001, η2 p = .368), representing increased knowledge across all learning domains. On the national certification examination, students had a 90% first-time pass rate, exceeding the current national average of 70% for first-time examinees. In satisfaction surveys, students expressed the value of pilot curriculum for their medical training, the importance of similar Patient Safety Education and CPPS certification for all medical students, their confidence as future healthcare change agents. Content analysis of open response questions revealed 3 key areas of strength and opportunity for guiding future iterations of the course. This pilot generates a future vision of patient safety, equipping students with critical knowledge to systematically improve healthcare quality.

Full textAbstract:
The content of the "education quality" concept was considered in the article. The problems of mathematical and natural education of pupils of secondary schools and students of the higher education institutions were analyzed. It has been found that their level of training in mathematical and natural subjects (disciplines) remains too low for successful studying in the higher education institutions and this significantly inhibits the process of acquiring the necessary competences. In order to improve the mathematical and natural preparation of pupils and students, taking into account the development of the STEM education concept in the country, it was proposed to enhance the motivational component of education by introducing advanced educational technologies, in particular, project learning, "creating a situation of success", forming the creative personality of the pupil or student, etc. In our opinion, by increasing the motivation and interest in learning, this will help to intensify and increase the efficiency of the educational process, to develop creative cooperation between the student and the teacher, to increase the creative component of the educational process. The main results of the experimental research work on the implementation of the model of "Conflict-free education" conducted at the Polytechnic Lyceum of the National Technical University of Ukraine "Kyiv Polytechnic Institute" were presented. It was found that implementation of the system of level education and level-stage assessment of students' educational achievements optimizes the process of mastering, consolidation and deepening of students' knowledge, contributes to improving the quality of mathematical-natural education, the motivation of students' learning, their creativity and research competence. The 12-point Student Achievement Assessment Scale developed at the Polytechnic Lyceum back in 1991 (it was taken as a basis by Ministry of Education and Science of Ukraine in 2000), has some differences, making the number of conflicts (misunderstandings) between students & parents and teachers quite low. The presented model is effective for lessons of different types and in classes with different learning profiles.

Full textAbstract:
This article looks at the phenomenon of Smolniy Institute, the first state run educational establishment for women, in the context of general educational policy. As thought out by Empress Catherine II and her supporters, an enlightened and educated mother or mentor was to play an important role in the modernization of the country, which was happening at an accelerated pace. It became clear two decades after the foundation of the women’s institute that it needed restructuring. Reformation of the institute was one of the tasks of the Commission of establishment of common population’s colleges (1782), which was headed by the future minister of people’s education P.V. Zavadovskiy. Serbian teacher F.I. Jankovich de Mirievo had experience of reforming the advanced (for its time) Austrian educational system, and he became the author of the new teaching system at the Smolniy Institute. All aspects of teaching at the institute were transformed – teaching plans, methods of teaching, establishment of teaching literature, choice of teaching staff. Teaching of the native tongue was the main change, its status was raised, and more time was devoted to its study. New methods touched pedagogy itself, aiming to make the students think consciously about the information they have learnt. Teachers from France, who had low levels of competence, were gradually replaced by well- prepared Russian teachers. This became part of the policy. Members of the Commission kept a watchful eye on the proceedings in order to ensure successful transition and implementation. The author of the article concludes that development of women’s schools, whose teaching programs covered large areas in sync with the Age of Enlightenment, proceeded similarly to the general developments in the Russian educational system.

Full textAbstract:
The study sought to examine the impact of employing brainstorming strategy, as a pre-writing strategy, on advanced EFL students' writing ability. Moreover, the study sought to investigate the attitudes of the participants in terms of the efficacy of brainstorming for developing writing performance. Sixty participants were randomly assigned to two groups participating in Writing II course at Atlas Language Institute in Yasouj, Iran. The highest as well as the lowest achievers were deleted in order to have an almost homogenous group. The participants were randomly assigned to control (No = 30) and experimental (No = 30) groups. Both groups had the same teacher. Based on the results of the pretest and posttest, learners that were treated with brainstorming made significant progress in writing. Furthermore, questionnaire scores indicated that the majority of the learners found brain storming a useful strategy in enhancing their writing skills. The results of the current study highlight the effectiveness of employing brainstorming as a pre-writing strategy in developing EFL students’ writing skill.

Full textAbstract:
Synchronous learning and asynchronous learning are the two main approaches to teaching available in distance education. The main objective of the study was to determine which approach to vocabulary learning, would facilitate vocabulary learning more for Iranian EFL learners. From among the targeted population of 82 intermediate students of an English institute in Isfahan, Iran, students between the ages of 12 to 18, a sample of 60 students were chosen based on their score on a quick placement test (QPT). The selected participants undertook a vocabulary pre-test and were divided into two groups of 30 who in terms of language proficiency and vocabulary knowledge were homogenized. Both synchronous and asynchronous groups were taught “Advanced Vocabulary and Idiom”, by the same teacher at one particular institute. In the period of 10 sessions of a semester, the synchronous groups were taught the vocabulary items in class synchronously and the asynchronous group was taught via email. After the post-test, the results with the t-test observed, indicated a significance difference between synchronous and asynchronous groups, p-value of .003, gender with the p-value of 0.027 and pre-test and post-test with the p-value of 0.047, but no significance was observed for age with the p-value of 0.127. The post-test results indicated that the synchronous group considerably outperformed the asynchronous group in the vocabulary knowledge they attained.

Full textAbstract:
Due to the dynamic nature of the agricultural industry, educators and their institutions face difficult challenges as they try to keep pace with future demands for knowledge and skilled workers. On the other hand, computational thinking (CT) has drawn increasing attention in the field of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education at present and, as advanced technologies and tools emerge, it is imperative for such innovations to be sustained with knowledge and skill among STEM educators and practitioners. The present case study aims to explore the relation between CT, STEM and agricultural education training (AET) in a Greek vocational training institute (IEK), the Agriculture IEK of Metamorfosis city (IEKMC), which is active in agriculture education. The research methodology is utilized according the positivist philosophical approach through data acquisition employing a questionnaire and the quantitative (statistical) analysis of data collected. The sample consists of IEKMC educators and students selected based on simple random sampling. Based on the participants belief that CT and STEM philosophy add value in the learning process, it focuses on the application of knowledge in the real world (students) and problem solving using new technologies (educators). Educators consider “experiments” as the most significant educational tool for problem solving in teaching practice. Students rate Greek Agriculture Education and Training (GAET) higher than educators. However, the participants evaluate GAET very low due to the lack of new innovative teaching methods being introduced. Finally, there is great interest in the implementation of CT and STEM in the European Union (EU) by students and educators.

Full textAbstract:
The article analyses and compares methods of teaching theological disciplines using distant technologies on the Faculty of Advanced Further Education and in the Institute of Distance Learning at St. Tikhon’s Orthodox University, as well as the experience of transferring full-time education to distance learning in spring of 2020 using the example of the discipline “Typicon and Hymnography” taught at the Theological professional retraining programme. It is shown that the transfer of the full-time course “Typicon and Hymnography” to distance learning encouraged the methodological convergence of two forms of education (full-time and part-time with the usage of distant educational technology) and at the same time identifi ed distinctive features of each of them. Full-time course was enriched by the inclusion of the distance learning technology tools with technical means, which added methodological orderliness. Moodle platform’s technical facilities allowed the teachers to keep practical orientation of the course (theory combined with the experience of attending church services) and integration of full-time course into the church calendar. The article also examines methodological opportunities of both forms of education, in context of an educative (that brings a person to church) mode of the course in Typicon and Hymnography. The article also describes features that form the communication between the teacher and students in full-time and in part-time education using distant educational technologies at the Institute of Distance Learning of St. Tikhon’s Orthodox University.

Full textAbstract:
The paper presents discussion of the results of extensive empirical research into efficient methods of educating and training translators of LSP (language for special purposes) texts. The methodology is based on using popular LSP texts in the respective fields as one of the main media for translator training. The aim of the paper is to investigate the efficiency of this methodology in developing thematic, linguistic and cultural competences of the students, following Bloom’s revised taxonomy and European Master in Translation Network (EMT) translator training competences. The methodology has been tested on the students of a professional Master study programme called Technical Translation implemented by the Institute of Applied Linguistics, Riga Technical University, Latvia. The group of students included representatives of different nationalities, translating from English into Latvian, Russian and French. Analysis of popular LSP texts provides an opportunity to structure student background knowledge and expand it to account for linguistic innovation. Application of popular LSP texts instead of purely technical or scientific texts characterised by neutral style and rigid genre conventions provides an opportunity for student translators to develop advanced text processing and decoding skills, to develop awareness of expressive resources of the source and target languages and to develop understanding of socio-pragmatic language use.

Full textAbstract:
Purpose: This research investigates the problems faced by college students in writing English academic summary. Methodology/Approach/Design: The method used includes surface strategy taxonomy by Heidi Dulay and non-linguistic problem using personal interview. The data were collected from 35 original summary writing documents for the linguistic sources and Zoom meeting video recorder for the non-linguistic sources. The samples were 7 students in 5th semester of English Education Department, Islamic State Institute of Kediri. To gather data, the researchers employed a random sampling technique. The data analysis used descriptive qualitative methods. Results: The result of the data analysis shows that the students committed four types of surface strategy taxonomy: omission, addition, misformation, and miss ordering. Misformation is the type of common problem found in the students’ summary writing. In the personal interview, it was found that misunderstands about advanced-vocabulary is the common non-linguistic problem. These represent the problems faced by students. Practical Implications: This research study has implications for teachers and students. The results can be of use for improving students’ writing and designing alternative teaching skills for this important skill. Originality/Value: Summary writing process helps the students to expand their view about proper academic writing. This situation suggests that summary writing is a good strategy technique to be applied in college students. However, the ability in writing an academic summary using surface strategy taxonomy needs to be improved

In the article self-actualizing portraits (types) of teachers, which were identified on the basis of the study, are presented. The main aim of two of them (“Subject Teachers” and “Psychologists”) is to develop gifted students. The developed separate training program for teachers working in the context of the development of gifted students has been substantiated in the article. This made it possible for the Institute for the Development of Education to develop a strategy for advanced training and scientific and methodological support of teachers of both types. The strategy is based on the principles of mutual enrichment, mutual respect, cooperation of all subjects of the education system and promotes the professional self-realization of teachers and, as a result, the development of gifted students. Through participating in events using various forms and technologies, the teacher shows himself, his uniqueness and originality, the desire for his own realization in professional activity, demonstrates a personal attitude towards himself, colleagues, professional events, and corporate culture. Measures, creating an environment of advanced personal and professional development, contribute to the professional motivation of teachers, ensuring the effectiveness of the pedagogical activity, develop the readiness for professional self-realization, and help raise the level of awareness of the value of pedagogical activity for personal self-realization. The result of the implementation of the mentioned program for teachers will be the development of the creative potential of teachers; stimulation of personal and professional growth of teachers; self-identification, self-organization, self-government and professional self-realization of these types of teachers.
Keywords: self-realization of personality; professional self-realization of the teacher; the self-actualizing portrait (type) of a teacher; cognitive, activity, emotional, axiological levels of the program; gifted children.

Full textAbstract:
The article aims to assess the efficiency of flipped learning as one of the most up-to-date methods when teaching English for the EFL students in Ukraine. The significance of the study bases on the necessity to implement advanced teaching practices during the COVID-19 pandemic since online learning requires constructive changes in the traditional system of education. It is necessary to shift from the direct knowledge transfer to searching and cognition of new information by students, to change the teacher’s role to being ‘a facilitator’ and organizer of various academic activities. The article outlines the main characteristics of flipped learning, including flexibility, individualization, differentiation, and opportunities for students to learn at any place or time. The contribution of this research is to estimate new experiences of University students due to flipped learning implementation. It was achieved due to analyzing responses to the survey-based questionnaire of 48 learners and 23 teachers of the Department of Foreign Philology and Translation of Vinnytsia Institute of Trade and Economics of Kyiv National University of Trade and Economics, evaluation of students’ performance, attendance, and attitude to the study. In order to verify results of the research, a descriptive statistical and analytical method was applied. The study results reveal that implementation of flipped learning made the educational process more effective and innovative as it improved students’ progress in language learning performance, increased their motivation and involvement, and made them more interested in learning English.

Full textAbstract:
Introduction. The Rome Conference of Ministers of Science and Higher Education set a new direction for the implementation of key commitments necessary for the full functioning of the European Higher Education Area. As a participant in the Bologna process, Russia is rapidly increasing the pace of modernization in the higher education system, which actualizes the need to analyze the results and consequences of the ongoing reforms. The research purpose is to identify the specifics of perception of the main aspects of the modernization process by students and teachers as key agents in the provision and consumption of educational services. Materials and methods. During the study, a questionnaire survey was conducted among first-to-fifth year students (N=300) and teachers (N=100) of the Volgograd Institute of Management, a branch of the Russian Academy of National Economy and Public Administration. Results. The research results demonstrate an ambiguous attitude towards the ongoing reforms. 39.3% of the surveyed students and 37.8% of the teachers support the transition to a two-tier higher education system, 28.6% of the students and 44.4% of the teachers do not approve of it. The main risk of the reform relates to the loss of the quality of education when changing the field of study and a student’s obligation to obtain a master’s degree in order to be in demand in the labor market. The transition to a modular-rating training system is perceived positively by more than a third of the surveyed students and teachers. Negative consequences of the reform affected teachers to a greater extent: an increase in time costs and the risk of error when completing modules with teaching materials. The transition to the credit system as a tool for the development of academic mobility is supported by 62% of the surveyed teachers and 39.9% of the students. The contradictory attitude to stimulating the change of universities is associated with the risks of student adaptation and stereotyped education as the consequences of reforms. Conclusions. Based on the research results, the authors come to the conclusion that to overcome the ambiguous attitude towards the ongoing reforms, it is important to develop and implement measures to highlight the current modernization directions, goals and results: at meetings of the Academic Council or through teaching and student exchanges at the regional and international level. Also, the identified problems can be compensated by the intensification of advanced training courses taken by teachers to use the tools of work against the backdrop of new tasks, the development of a regulatory framework that regulates the transition between levels of education and measures to prevent the risks of students’ adaptation when changing universities.

Full textAbstract:
This paper outlines the ongoing construction of a speech corpus for use by applied linguists and advanced EFL/ESL students. In the first part, sections 1–4, the need for improvements in the teaching of listening skills and pronunciation practice for EFL/ESL students is noted. It is argued that the use of authentic native-to-native speech is imperative in the teaching/learning process so as to promote social inclusion. The arguments for authentic language learning material and the use of a speech corpus are contextualised within the literature, based mainly on the work of Swan, Brown and McCarthy. The second part, section 5, addresses features of native speech flow which cause difficulties for EFL/ESL students (Brown, Cauldwell) and establishes the need for improvements in the teaching of listening skills. Examples are given of reduced forms characteristic of relaxed native speech, and how these can be made accessible for study using the Dublin Institute of Technology’s slow-down technology, which gives students more time to study native speech features, without tonal distortion. The final part, sections 6–8, introduces a novel Speech Corpus being developed at DIT. It shows the limits of traditional corpora and outlines the general requirements of a Speech Corpus. This tool – which will satisfy the needs of teachers, learners and researchers – will link digitally recorded, natural, native-to-native speech so that each transcript segment will give access to its associated sound file. Users will be able to locate desired speech strings, play, compare and contrast them – and slow them down for more detailed study.

Full textAbstract:
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to examine the association between engagement indicators and intent to persist of first-year full-time Hispanic students attending public versus private universities. Design/methodology/approach Metadata from the Your First College Year survey from the Higher Education Research Institute (HERI) were selected for this study. The approach included using a descriptive correlational design and regression analysis to examine the relationship between engagement indicators and persistence among first-year, full-time Hispanic students and persistence. Purposeful sampling obtained from the HERI data set resulted in a sample size of 1,206 students who attended public institutions and 1,187 students who attended private institutions. Findings Analysis of the results disclosed a positive correlation between first-year Hispanic students’ intent to persist, satisfaction with peer interactions, amount of contact with faculty, first-year programs and sense of belonging. The results of the analysis disclosed differences between public and private institutions. Of the collective variables, satisfaction with amount of contact with faculty and sense of belonging are significant predictors of persistence. Research limitations/implications The sample of the study was limited to the use of archival data and the responses to specific questions obtained from the 2014 YFCY survey. Factors such as insufficient experience at the college students are attending, unwillingness to provide honest feedback and exaggerating specific areas of their behavior or performance may affect students who respond to surveys (Kuh, 2004), affecting the accuracy of the data. Further, 89.7 per cent of the variance in persistence has not been explained. Adding or using different variables and utilizing a more advanced statistical technique may account for additional variance. Cause and effect cannot be determined from correlational analysis, and the possibility exists that an unknown variable may be the cause of a correlation within the study. Incomplete information from predictors, complete separation and overdispersion can lead to SPSS output errors for logistic regression analysis. Social implications It is important for higher education administrators to understand the cultural differences of not only Hispanic students but other ethnic and racial groups. As a global society, public and private higher education institutions are looking for more inclusion of multi-cultural students. Recruitment is obviously important, but to recruit is not enough. It is the responsibility of higher education administrators to do all that is reasonably possible to retain students through graduation. Originality/value Studies have been conducted on academic disparities between Hispanic students and their White counterparts, but few studies exist on the factors associated to persistence among the first-year Hispanic student population. The results of this study may add to the existing body of knowledge and assist with faculty development of programs, decisions on class size, improvements to pedagogy and discussions to improve the campus climate for Hispanic students. Using the resources of HERI, future studies can be conducted involving other races and ethnicities.
