Full textThe training of military officers is well debated and has always been. But the recent years' changes in officer training and the academisation of the profession and also changed command structures in the Swedish Armed Forces (SAF) have once again set the stage for discussion. Among other things, it is about SAF getting the officer they need to build strong units and whether the officer has the qualifications that this requires? But what is the profession as an officer and what does the SAF really wants? The study examines just that, what is a military officer and what qualities an officer is expected to bring into the profession. The education at the Swedish National Defense University (SDU) and the military officers’ program (OP) is the education, which should lead to a profession as an officer with the right qualifications and characteristics. This leads to the second part of the study, where the image of an officer is compared to the exam objectives for the program. These exam objectives are stated in the ordinance for SDU, and with the 17 exam objectives examined; the cadet should be ready to begin his profession as an officer. The question is whether this condition really exists? In order to make this comparison, the study, through interviews, has developed a model of an officer from the unique with the profession, the monopoly of violence, via admission requirements for the education, to characteristics that the officer must have and roles that the officer exercises. The model has two portal paragraphs that are a compilation of the model, which the study considers necessary to deal with the most serious issues that may ultimately involve decisions on life or death. The portal paragraphs are versatility and a well-developed inner moral guidance. In the comparison between the model and the exam objectives, the study found that the objectives are demilitarized and have a theoretical approach. The armed battle is overshadowed and the officers' responsibility for the state monopoly of violence is not included. Nor do they clarify some of the characteristics and qualifications that the study has shown are necessary for the officer to be able to manage the profession as a leader and shoulder the responsibility this requires. This means that the cadet does not fully get the opportunity to become the officer that SAF needs. The study shows, among other things, that the exam objectives should be reviewed and perhaps even partly rewritten.

Full textThe U.S. Navy Supply Corps officer community’s professional development guidance does not solidly link to the organization’s strategic vision, goals, or objectives. This study qualitatively analyzes the degree of alignment between officer development guidance and strategic initiatives. It evaluates two sets of documents: near-, mid-, and long-term strategy and individual career guidance playbooks. As Supply Corps officers progress through military service, career milestones do not reflect the radical shift in corporate culture needed by Naval Supply Systems Command (NAVSUP) to better serve U.S. Navy customers. This research examines two constructs that bind employees to organizational strategy: performance management and employee engagement. The study recommends adopting industry-standardized professional certification programs to validate functional knowledge, skills, abilities, and competencies to provide (1) a metric for measuring progress toward strategic initiatives and (2) an incentive for attaining and maintaining functional competency in the U.S. Navy Supply Corps. Professional certification benefits the individual through validated knowledge and association with industry-recognized professional organizations. More importantly, the organization benefits in formalizing its relationship with external organizations (through its officers), gains the credibility needed for contributing when in partnership with Joint Naval Support Network partners, and provides a metric by which NAVSUP can measure its progress toward strategic goals.

Full textCareer and academic guidance are of the greatest importance for every student. At the end of middle school, a pupil has to choose either vocational education - which leads to a vocational high school degree - or general and technological studies. Choosing general studies postpones career choice by three years.To support the weakest students in choosing a career, the school proposes the setting up of a digital portfolio. This portfolio contains the skills and experience the students acquired during their economic and job discovery option in pre-vocational eighth grade (3ème Prépa-Pro).Paradoxically, in the digital age, the diversity and the multiplicity of Intelligent Tutoring Systems (ITS) available to teachers may be an obstacle to their use for teaching purpose in class. After having analysed the implementation conditions of this job discovery option in pre-vocational eighth grade in the academy of La Réunion, we intend to test the usability of FOLIOS and ITS made available for teachers to assist the students in the development of their digital portfolio

Full textBullying in schools has been a problem for as long as schools have existed. The issues are complex and research indicates that incidents of children being victimised are increasing.
Two related studies are discussed in this report. Respondents for Study 1 are guidance officers from the Central Queensland region and issues of interest are: their perceptions regarding the frequency of bullying in schools; whom victims of bullying would be most likely to confide in; whether students would seek assistance from guidance officers if they are being bullied at school; and what strategies are successful for victims. For Study 2, respondents are students at a local Central Queensland high school. The focus is upon whom victims of bullying would be most likely to confide in.
Results for both Studies 1 and 2 indicate that victims of bullying are more likely to tell their friends, and very unlikely to seek assistance from guidance officers, if they are being bullied at school. In Study 1 all respondents, further, report that bullying occurs in their respective schools and many feel that the most successful strategy for dealing with victims of bullying is to adopt a 'whole school' approach.
Both previous studies and this present research indicate some hope for future action against bullying in schools. It is this researcher's opinion, however, that future prospects may be far more sombre and that intervention by guidance officers and school administrators will do little to alleviate the problem while dominance over others is encouraged by society.

Full textThe purpose of this study is to investigate what are the perception and the stance on the issue of the professional choices of children with or without dyslexia, of the parents and the people in charge of vocational guidance offices. Overall 116 people, 56 parents of dyslexic children and 60 people in charge of vocational guidance offices, of which 16 counselors and 46 vocational guidance high school teachers in the Prefecture of Achaia, took part in the survey. The perceptions of the participants were taken throughout a Likert type scale questionnaire, that has to do with the evaluation of the adequacy of 28 professions for children with and without dyslexia, where the participants report and develop their opinions according to the most and less successful choice of profession of children with and without dyslexia. The results of the answers analysis showed that there are differences in the attitudes and the perceptions of the participants according to their status (parents vs. counselors), also according to whether the children are dyslexic or not and on the degree of the academic requirements as well as the extend of the use of the written word that the practice of the professions demand. Finally, the choices of the participants as they are reflected on the answers they have given in the open ended questions, seem to be justified on the basis of the special capacities and the personality of the children and also on whether they are dyslexic or not. It seems that the way parents act is influenced by the expectations and the emotional pressure they feel when they have to determine the adequacy of professions for their children, especially when they are dyslexic, while the perceptions of the people in charge of vocational guidance offices are based on more objective and realistic criteria.

The Study on the Practice Teachers’ Administrative Practice ─Example of Students Guidance Office in Junior High School The reason of this study is to elevate the quality of administrative practice, and to create an excellent environment of administrative practice. Take Students Guidance Office in Ji-Shing (anonym) junior high school where I serve for example, I undergo the study on the process of practice teachers’ administrative practice with the assistance of fifteen practice teachers. There are three main ideas in this study: 1. To understand the feelings and reflection of three types of practice teachers (including practice teachers who take educational courses in universities, practice teaches who take after-college education courses and substituted teachers who replace teaching practice with being substituted teachers.) 2. To explore the process and efforts of practice teachers who take part in the management and individual counseling in the middle-classes(中途班)and resource classes(資源班). 3. To attain high quality of administrative practice by modifying and examining the management and measures of Students Guidance Office in my school. The conclusion of this study is followed: 1. Practice teachers of different types all agree that administrative practice is beneficial to their professional growth but they have different opinions about the importance and necessity of administrative practice. 2. School Administrators’ conducting practice teachers provides the key to practice teachers’ getting knowledge and ability. 3. Practice teachers can have plenty of experience about administrative measures and conduct through reflection, feedback and examination meeting. 4. The close cooperation between practice teachers and administrators promote the professional growth and relationship individually. 5. Practices teachers’ keeping journals about teaching practice can help them reflect on themselves and promote their growth and can be the reference for schools to make improvement. 6. Although Practice teachers sometimes feel under pressure and anxious, sometimes they still feel happy and care about others during the administrative practice. 7. Practice teachers of three types feel differently about administrative practice, because they have different period of time of administrative practice, workload and personal factors. 8. Practice teachers get a lot because of taking part in in-service training. However, it is a pity that the in-service training is lacking in systematization. 9. The management and teaching in middle-classes(中途班)is a heavy workload to practice teachers (including substituted teachers who replace teaching practice with being substituted teachers.) On the contrary, they profit greatly. 10. As for practices teachers who major in special education, they can exert their profession to manage and teach students in resource-classes (資源班). 11. The individual counseling is the important step to cultivate counselors. According to the above conclusion, this study brings up the following suggestion: 1. The suggestion to the system of teaching practice guidance: (1) The arrangement of period of time of administrative practice should be systematized and the way of execution of administrative practice should be flexible. (2) Having regular assessing and evaluation can promote the quality of administrative practice. 2. The suggestion to practice schools: (1) They should plan appropriately the system of administrative practice. (2) They should hold regular coordination councils to elevate the mutual communication between practice teachers and teachers who guide practice teachers and between practice teachers and administrators. 3. The suggestion to future practice teachers: (1) They should pursuit professional growth during administrative practice and should have further exploration and learning about school administration. (2) They should face up to challenges courageously and should cultivate their ability in class management and teaching. (3) They should enrich professional special education and have the capability of taking care of students who have special needs. (4) They should enrich knowledge of guidance and counseling and can participate in individual guidance so that they can guide students in the future. (5) They should hold the attitudes that they can be happy and earnest practice teachers. Key words:practice teachers、administrative practice、middle-classes、resource classes、guidance and counseling.

This study used the Augmented Reality (AR) tool developed by HP Reveal to develop a teaching system that allows junior high school students with special needs to learn and complete the ability to operate post office automated teller machines (ATMs) independently. Since the teaching of ATM is not suitable for repeated training on a real ATM, which involves the privacy of the user. This study presents the operation interface of the post office ATM in the form of a web page, and uses the combination of the mobile phone and the tablet to simulate the situation and process of operating the ATM, in order to help students with special needs learn how to use ATM correctly and achieve the best training results. The experimental data of this study shows that this set of AR systems makes it very effective for students with special needs to be familiar with the operation of post office ATMs.

Full textNas atuais condições económicas, as universidades competem entre si no mercado de serviços educacionais. Praticamente todas as instituições de ensino superior enfrentam hoje em dia a questão da empregabilidade dos seus antigos alunos e os gabinetes de carreira, entre outras iniciativas, têm sido criados em muitas universidades para melhorar a competitividade dos seus licenciados no mercado de trabalho. Apesar da maioria das universidades em Portugal indicar a existência de um gabinete de carreiras ou entidade similar na instituição, nem sempre a oferta de serviços de aconselhamento de carreira está totalmente desenvolvida. Com a finalidade de apoiar o desenvolvimento destes serviços, as necessidades específicas dos seus destinatários (i.e., estudantes) devem ser avaliadas para apoiar a compreensão e o cumprimento das expectativas. Quais são as atuais necessidades de carreira e as preferências de intervenção dos estudantes universitários portugueses? Que tipo de intervenção online ou assistida por computador seria adequada? O presente estudo abordou essas questões através de questionário online administrado a 361 alunos do ensino superior português. Os resultados indicam quais as modalidades de intervenção de carreira preferidas, quais as necessidades atuais de apoio neste âmbito e, também, qual a probabilidade de utilizar um serviço de aconselhamento de carreira online ou assistido por computador, se fosse disponibilizado pela sua universidade. Os resultados podem contribuir para a promoção da empregabilidade dos alunos, dando recomendações para o desenvolvimento dos gabinetes de carreira nas universidades portuguesas, através da criação de programas de orientação e aconselhamento de carreira, incluindo intervenções online.

Full textW pracy tej podęto się przedstawienia jednego z najważniejszych obecnie problemów społecznych, jakim jest sytuacja absolwentów uczelni wyższych na rynku pracy. W tym celu dokonano charakterystyki polskiego rynku pracy oraz głównych wyzwań, z jakimi przychodzi mierzyć się młodym osobom wkraczającym w życie zawodowe. Następnie ukazano rolę, którą odgrywa państwo, będące głównym regulatorem funkcjonowania szkolnictwa wyższego. Początki tych działań przypadają na koniec XVIII i pierwszą połowę XIX wieku, gdy państwa zaczynają na masową skalę poszukiwać inżynierów i administratorów. Zadania, które są stawiane przed uniwersytetami z upływem czasu ulegają przeobrażeniom – powstają polityki publiczne mające realizować złożone i zmieniające się cele, odbiegające już od kształcenia elitarnej grupy profesjonalistów. Szkolnictwo wyższe ulega umasowieniu, a nauka instytucjonalizacji, co znacznie zmniejsza obszary swobody, którymi początkowo cieszyły się uczelnie. Dodatkową płaszczyzną, na której oceniane zaczynają być uniwersytety, staje się rynek. Relacje między sektorem szkolnictwa wyższego, państwem oraz szeregiem innych ważnych aktorów przybierają na złożoności. Zaradzić im się stara termin 'academical governance' - tłumaczony jako ład akademicki lub zarządzanie partycypacyjne w szkolnictwie wyższym. Wyrazem urynkowienia edukacji - nie tylko tej na poziomie wyższym - jest koncepcja kapitału ludzkiego, która już od ponad 50 lat stanowi jeden z głównych mechanizmów służących ocenie kształcenia. W sposób zasadniczy wpływa to na dokonywany opis szkolnictwa, podporządkowując go kryterium rynkowym przy jednoczesnym implikowaniu do niego szeregu niepewności związanych z funkcjonowaniem mechanizmu rynkowej alokacji dóbr. Mimo narosłej wokół niej krytyki, teoria kapitału ludzkiego z powodzeniem funkcjonuje w politykach publicznych wielu krajów, a w przypadku Polski wydaje się być szczególnie silna, co może być wyrazem chęci dogonienia krajów "Zachodu" przez prostą kopię ich wzorców rozwojowych (tzw. rozwój imitacyjny). Powyższe tendencje przyczyniły się do przypisania dzisiejszemu uniwersytetowi szeregu ról. Do ich opisu posłużono sie terminem 'multiuniversity', wprowadzonym do debaty o szkolnictwie wyższym przez Clarka Kerra już w połowie lat`60 XX wieku. Koncepcja zatem nienowa, jednak dzięki swojej elastyczności pozwala na zawarcie w jej ramach szeregu ról współczesnego uniwersytetu i ukazania ich we wspólnym kontekście. Wyróżniono zatem pięć zadań, które są realizowane przez szkoły wyższe. Po pierwsze, dzisiejsza akademia ma być szkołą praktycznych umiejętności, co między innymi otwiera dyskusję na temat tego co jest praktyczne a co teoretyczne. Po drugie szkoła wyższa ma dostarczać kapitał ludzki - tak dla gospodarki jak i dla jednostek. Po trzecie uczelnia ma odpowiadać za zatrudnialność swoich absolwentów, co czyni z nią jedną z instytucji rynku pracy. Po czwarte szkolnictwo akademickie ma być odpowiedzialne za modernizację kraju, głównie w wymiarze ekonomicznym, co skłania do postawienia pytań o zależności między poziomem kształcenia a wskaźnikami rozwoju gospodarczego. I na koniec uniwersytet jest miejscem tworzenia się kapitału społecznego - tak dla uczących się w nim studentów jak i dla miejsca, w którym jest usytuowany; w szczególności rola ta jest ważna dla mniejszych miejscowości. Powyższe pięć zadań szkoły wyższej zapewne nie stanowi zbioru zamkniętego, ale niewątpliwie pozwala dokonać znacznie pełniejszego, bo uzupełnionego o złożony kontekst, opisu funkcjonowania uniwersytetu na początku XXI wieku. Ostatnia część pracy poświęcona jest zrealizowanemu przez Autora badaniu akademickich biur karier (ABK), które są instytucją powołaną w efekcie oddziaływania presji rynkowej na szkołę wyższą. Przyglądając się im bliżej widać szereg problemów, które wiążą się z ideą urynkowienia uniwersytetu. Opis ABK został uzupełniony o głos władz uczelni oraz pracodawców, którzy z tymi uczelniami współpracują. Na zakończenie przedstawiono dwa przykłady pozytywnych efektów kooperacji uczelni z przedsiębiorstwem, przy czym ich bliższa analiza umożliwiła pokazanie trudności, jakie napotyka koncepcja współpracy uniwersytetu z pracodawcami, gdy przystępuje się do praktycznej realizacji jej teoretycznych postulatów.
