Full textAbstract:
INTRODUCTION. During the last decade, the student movement in Spanish universities has evolved from an associative and assembly-participatory based model to a system of student councils as representative bodies with a strong influence on university governance. In addition, the State Council of University Students (CEUNE) was created so student interests could be directly promoted and mediated with the government. As the highest representative student body at the national level, it has enabled its members to pursue a political agenda throughout the last decade. METHOD. The aim of this work is to reconstruct the contexts in which student university policies have developed in order to describe and analyse the evolution of the debates, agreements and disagreements that have emerged within this Council. Through discourse analysis, we triangulate information from CEUNE meeting minutes, student manifestos, media coverage and interviews with key informants. RESULTS. We discuss the role of CEUNE in influencing university policy through classic issues (scholarships and public prices) and its capacity to introduce new issues to the agenda. DISCUSSION. Lastly, we analyse whether different administrations have planned their activities in cooperation with student representatives.

The success of IPB student's study can be seen from the achievement index obtained at the end of each semester. Meanwhile, the success rate of one's study is generally influenced by two factors, internal factors and external factors. Internal factors consist of intelligence (intellectual), physical, attitudes, interests, talents, and motivations, while external factors consist of family circumstances, school conditions, and the community environment. Therefore, this study uses the analysis method of classification and regression trees (CART) to find out what factors influenced the success of the Student Council (OSIS) university students.
Regression tree it is one of the methods of classification and regression trees (CART) to perform classification analysis on both categorical and continuous response variables. Continuous response variables will produce a regression tree or hierarchical data group that starts at the root and ends with a relatively homogeneous small group. The response variable used in this study is the Achievement Index of first semester students. The results obtained from the analysis showed that there are several different variables in each class in influencing the success of the student council (OSIS) university students, but if we look further, there are two variables that are the same in influencing the success of the student council (OSIS) university students, which are variables from high school province and student study programs.
This study uses secondary data from 493 IPB students track the chairman of the student council of the year 2018-2020 which is still active until now. Furthermore, the analysis of the regression tree is performed against four different models, for each of the force and the overall force by adjusting the variables available. The formation of tree regression performed 10 repetitions and the results of regression trees is taken from a tree which has the approximate value of the smallest risk. Then, the final results obtained from the analysis showed that there are several different variables in each class in influencing the success of the student council (OSIS) university students, but if we look further, there are two variables that are the same in influencing the success of the student council (OSIS) university students, which are variables from high school province and student study programs.

Full textAbstract:
Four hundreds eighty-six (486) university students investigated the opinions of Turkish University Students on Quality of University Education and Higher Education Council. Mostly public universities (%64.2), and they are from 34 different universities; 486 university students with an associate degree, undergraduate and graduate and postgraduate university students between the ages of 18-65 filled out the questionnaire (Tuncer 2023). There were ten questions about the Higher Education Council’s (YÖK) thoughts, university rectorate appointment and election, university, and academic autonomy. In addition, with a question about the most important critical or essential for university students, the perception of student problems was tried to be learned. As 4 out of 486 students did not complete most of the questions, they were eliminated and the evaluation was made on 482 students (Tuncer 2023) (This study was produced from the data of A.Murat Tuncer’s PhD thesis). Out of all students 62.3% women, 91.2% were single, and 57.9% of the students lived on family assistance. 61.1% of the students live on less than 3000 TL per month. 24.5% live in the dormitory, and 56.8% living with their own family. 89.1% of students assessed the performance of the Higher Education Council as not working well. 14.6% of the students considered the universities are free in Turkey. 42.5% of university students perceive university free as academic, financial, and administrative, 36.5% of the students want the university rector to be elected by voting in which all components of the university, namely students, faculty members, and administrative staff, will participate together. 80.6% of the students think that there is no equality in access to education in our country. Although the majority do not have an opinion on whether to enter the university with an exam or not, 40.6% of the students have a favorable view of the baccalaureate-style general examination test at the end of high school.43.7% of the students do not find it appropriate to give scholarships based on their exam scores. Regarding the quality of university education, 38.5% of the students are neither good nor bad, 34.9% find it high quality and 26.6% find it poor quality. The beginning of most critical problems mentioned is missing problems and the colorlessness of social life. It was also evaluated whether the students were from private and public universities and whether there were significant differences in the answers given according to the years in the university.

The findings of the comparative study of documents representing the process of supporting the academic ethical values in students' information activities are presented. The empirical data were obtained as a result of analysis of 24 ethical codes of Russian universities and documentation of the Harvard University Honor Council. The documents indicating the practice of ethical regulation in the field of students' work with information loaded to the official websites of Russian universities are studied. The procedures of the Harvard Honor Council are discussed, the statistics of violations of academic integrity examined by the Honor Council is analyzed. The author concludes that Russian universities are at the initial stage of implementing full-fledged system of ethical regulation of the university community activities, and their initiatives aimed at approval of their ethical codes are primarily of the declarative nature. Based on the study of documented practice of the Harvard Honor Council, it is demonstrated how a well-developed ethical regulation mechanism provides for efficient control over the observance of the principles of academic integrity that are postulated in Harvard's Code of Honor. The conclusion about the high degree of influence of the “Codes of Honor” on the US university community is made.

Stalking was recently criminalised in Spain and other European countries, following the signing of the Council of Europe Convention on preventing and combating violence against women and domestic violence, despite a lack of empirical knowledge of victimisation by this phenomenon. Previous research carried out in the usa and in other European countries on victimisation by stalking with female samples has shown that young women are the most frequently victimised group. Based on those findings, research was conducted in Spain with a sample of 1,162 university students, including women and men. This paper presents the main findings of this research, determining the prevalence of stalking victimisation, the victim and stalker profiles, and the dynamics of this type of victimisation.

The focus of the present research is international students’ adaptation in the academic environment. The working hypothesis is that there exists a gap between international students’ perception of the university policy dealing with academic problems and university (international office, student council, and teaching staff) vision of the same issue. The current research employs the following methods: the monographic (literature review) method and series of semi-structured interviews (20 interviews with international students, seven interviews with university lectures who deal with these students on a daily basis), and an in-depth interview with the university vice rector. The research questions are: (1) What are the key factors of the international graduate students’ academic adjustment in Turiba University? (2) What is the role of the university in assuring international students’ academic integration? The results are interpreted qualitatively, using the method of inductive thematic analysis.

Full textAbstract:
The article explores the process of involving Alberta university students in higher education institution governance. The article emphasizes that students are able to manage their affairs independently, satisfy their diverse needs and protect their political rights and interests. It has been proven that Canadian university of Alberta students are actively involved in academic and administrative decision-making process that is significant for university functioning. This article reveals the formal decision making bodies of the University of Alberta, student organizations as a whole and especially two major student organizations – the Students` Union and the Graduate Student Association, which represent the undergraduate and graduate student on campus. The main formal decision making bodies of Alberta University are the Board of Governors and the General Faculties Council. Among other formal bodies of all levels there are the Senate, the Dean`s Council, Dean`s advisory committees, and some department committees. These decision making bodies include members of academic and support staff, administrators, representatives of the general public, undergraduate and graduate students, especially senior ones. The article recalls that two primary functions of each student organization are to protect student interests and to promote the welfare of students. It has been emphasized that student representatives sit on almost all governing bodies of Alberta University, taking part in university policy making and in administering university affairs, including student affairs. This article highlights student involvement in university governing bodies and student motivation for participating in university governance. Among most common student motivation factors are desire to serve other students, social reasons, influence of parents and friends, wish to improve university governance and to gain their own experience. Decision areas from which students are excluded have been noticed. It has been stressed that student roles in decision making on university committees depend on each individual student participant. Some students act as colleagues, some as watchdogs, some as leaders in discussions or debates, but large number of students are only information providers. Informal strategies used by students in order to influence university governance, include their media, a radio station, two student newspapers, caucuses, training programs which have played important roles in helping them to attain their objectives.

Full textAbstract:
In the 21st century era of science and technology, the importance of humanity education is becoming more prominent. Humanity education is mainly conducted by the person in charge of liberal arts education at any given university. Among humanity education as liberal arts education, this thesis focused on subjects related to university student volunteer activities and non-subject activities. Volunteer work often stems from spontaneity. However, the reality is that in the Korean educational field, volunteer work is regarded as either an anti-arbitrary and compulsory activity allowing for the attainment of favorable scores for university entrance exams, or to meet university graduation requirements. However, it should not be overlooked that service can be strengthened through education and training, and spontaneity can be established. In this respect, overseas volunteer activities for university students can be said to be a very important extracurricular endeavors when it comes to training the basic training of services, such as sharing and serving and cultivating the leadership of serving. In this paper, the actual operation of overseas volunteer activities through Dongduk Womens University and a university council called the <i>Korean University Council For Social Service</i> were examined as humanity education for university students. In addition, in this study we examined how volunteer work has a positive effect on individual character growth and humanity education of university student volunteers. We also confirmed that university students overseas volunteer activities are very useful educational tools for the development of humanity education, which functions as one of the pillars of liberal arts education.

UNESCO reports enrollment in higher education in the Arab and Gulf Cooperation Council region doubled from 5.1 million in 2000 to 10.7 million in 2015. Despite significant budgets and the world’s lowest teacher-to-student ratio, higher education in this region is plagued by student underachievement. This study identifies academic underachievement factors among undergraduate students at risk at a national university in the GCC. As part of the Intrusive Intervention Program, students were required to complete an Academic Success Plan that delineated academic, personal, social, career, and other academic underachievement reasons. Based on 5,040 students’ responses that indicated their academic underachievement causes, findings reported that students perceived academic factors as the most recurrent reason for academic underachievement. In contrast, social adjustment causes were found to be the least recurrent. Specific causes are reported under each category and discussion is provided against gender, nationality, major, and classification.

Introduction. The authors analyze the process of establishing a state university in Volgograd, the last university set up in the RSFSR during the existence of the USSR. Materials. This study is based on the basis of archival materials first introduced into scientific use (State Archive of the Russian Federation (SARF), Russian State Archive of Recent History (RSARH), Center of Recent History Documentation of Volgograd Region (CRHDVO)). Analysis and Results. The initial idea of the representatives of governing bodies in Volgograd region to organize a university on the basis of Volgograd Polytechnic Institute did not find support from the leadership of the country in 1971. In 1972 it was decided to start organizing a new type of higher education institution for Volgograd, that is a classic university. This idea found support in Moscow, which was manifested in the resolutions of the Secretariat of the CPSU Central Committee in 1973 and the USSR Council of Ministers and the RSFSR Council of Ministers in 1974. The necessity for creating appropriate educational and teaching resources and facilities, the manpower problem and insufficient funds led to postponing initially proposed dates for the University opening from 1974 to 1978, and then to 1980. The first admission of students in 1980 was in the building of a comprehensive school specially built for this purpose near the future University complex, the first building of which would be put into service only in 1983. The issue of the development of the young University was under the constant control of the Council of Ministers of the RSFSR for many years. Only in March 1986 it was decided to discontinue supervision over the resolution of the Council of Ministers of the RSFSR no. 561 of October 21, 1974.

The increase in the cost of living gives a huge impact on student spending, especially university students. To support students financially, the government and universities take proactive steps to expand university funding through social funds such as zakat and waqf. This paper aims to explain the governance of zakat management in a public university, namely the Waqf and Zakat Center (PWZ) of Universiti Sains Islam Malaysia (USIM). Zakat management at USIM was then compared with zakat management at the Waqf, Zakat and Endowment Center (WAZAN) of Universiti Putra Malaysia (UPM). This study uses a qualitative approach to gain information and analyse the data for zakat management approach from both universities. The results of the study found that both PWZ and WAZAN have two main committees to manage zakat which involves reporting zakat operations in terms of collection and distribution and making decisions involving policies as well as zakat distribution management within the university. Based on the governance of the two universities, this study suggests that the State Islamic Religious Council and the university's top management give full trust to the university's zakat center to coordinate all zakat-related activities in their respective universities in addition to allowing collections to be made around the university area.

Nowadays, the potential for international cooperation in the Arctic is concentrated within the framework of such an influential international structure as the Arctic Council, where Russia is presiding over soon in 2021–2023. The article is devoted to international cooperation evaluation of 15 Arctic universities from 7 Arctic Council member-states with a student contingent of at least 3,600 people (2 in the USA, 1 in Iceland, 5 in Russia, 2 in Finland, 2 in Sweden, 2 in Norway, 1 in Canada). It seems possible to evaluate international cooperation potential between Arctic universities through the prism of 10 quantitative indicators, including the number of international students admitted to the university; number of courses taught in English; number of educational programs for international students; a number of foreign scientists invited to the university, etc. We can evaluate both academic mobility within the Arctic universities and vocational education internationalization due to accumulated statistical data.

Mentoring in music education programs is such a ubiquitous part of the process; it is sometimes overlooked or subsumed under other categories. The purpose of this article is to highlight mentoring relationships within an undergraduate music teacher education program. Formal, informal, vertical, and horizontal mentoring are examined from the perspectives of undergraduate preservice music teachers working in a community-university partnership. The data are culled from a 14 month, intrinsic case study of the University of South Carolina String Project, designed to examine the participant experience for all member groups within the string project—the undergraduate preservice teachers, the community students, and the faculty. Mentoring relationships are explored as a critical component of experience for the preservice teachers. Their voices are presented here to illustrate the value they placed on mentoring, as well as the challenges that emerged in construction of a mentoring mosaic as part of their preservice teaching experience.

abstract: This article explores the language-proficiency levels required in traditional upper-division university courses in Latin. It introduces a research framework to Classics called "domain analysis" and analyzes upper-division Latin at one university to determine the target functional outcomes for students in lower-division courses. The article finds that traditional upper-division Latin requires philological skills that are not described under widely used descriptions of language proficiency, but that these courses also require a reading proficiency corresponding to "advanced high" in the American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages Proficiency Guidelines , as well as a limited degree of listening and pronunciation ability. A lower-division curriculum that integrates active Latin techniques with those drawn from multiliteracies and grammar-translation pedagogies may be best suited to achieving these proficiencies.

Telkom University is a tertiary institution that has a variety of student organizations as a place to channel and develop the potential of students. Student Council of Telkom University Student Family or commonly abbreviated as DPM Kema Tel-U is one of the student organizations at Telkom University that has several functions such as supervision, legislation, aspirations, and budget. The involvement of Telkom University students is needed in carrying out these four functions, and one of the methods used is to carry out publication activities related to various activities that will be or are being held. However, Kema Tel-U DPM has not been able to maximize the website which is considered to be the main channel in information dissemination activities. To answer these problems, researchers will conduct a literature study to obtain various relevant theories, modify the WebQual 4.0 instrument that is tailored to the research needs, then conduct questionnaires to 120 students of Telkom University. The collected data will be analyzed using the suitability level method and importance-performance analysis using the SPSS version 25 application to answer the research problem. This study aims to determine the level of user satisfaction with the DPM Kema Tel-U website, as well as identify variables that need to be addressed to improve the quality of research objects by their priorities. The results obtained are the priority order for improving a website maintained by the Student Representative Council of Telkom University, and a new instrument derived from modified WebQual instruments 4.0. This research can be a reference to assess other websites that are similar to the DPM Kema Tel-U website.

The Austin City Hall Fellows Program at The University of Texas at Austin was a student civic leadership program designed to build Austin City Hall’s capacity to reach potential leaders in diverse new council districts. Undergraduate students in this program took a single-semester service-learning course that connected them with partners from the city, the community, and the university. Using Howard’s (1998) framework, our study analyzed student assessments from five cohorts of the class to understand how students experienced a service-learning class based around a multipartner community-university-city partnership. Our findings revealed that students experienced a nonlinear path to engagement in a synergistic classroom. This study offers implications for adjusting service-learning classes and projects to integrate and sustain relationships with multiple partners, even as the context of the service landscape and learning context are evolving.

In the process of scientific research, it was found that the following bodies of student self-government were active during the studied period: Stage I (1804–1863) – student economic organizations, scientific societies, society of lovers of domestic literature, Bible society, literary circles, public intellectual circles, Slavophile circles, student theater, Kharkiv-Kyiv secret society, social court (court of honor), student libraries and reading rooms, private libraries, Lithuanian Corporation of Kyiv University, mutual aid funds, communes; Stage ІІ (1863–1884) – mutual aid societies, compatriots, student canteens, mutual aid funds, educational circles and public educational organizations, self-education circles, libraries, self-education circles; Stage ІІІ (1884–1900) – fellowships, library associations, cash registers and mutual aid societies, scientific circles, student canteens, Union Councils, Kharkiv Union Council of United Organizations and Fellowships, Ukrainian Student Community, Union Council of United Fellowships and Organizations, and the Executive Committee of the Imperial Novorossiysk University; Stage IV (1900–1917) – elders, student military wives, canteens, professional unions, cash registers and mutual aid societies, student shops, scholarship commissions, social courts, fellows, scientific circles, student senate, Council of Student Deputies of Kharkiv Imperial University.
The principles of student self-government (democracy, legality, openness, equality, accountability, responsibility, etc.) are highlighted; methods (communication, introspection, conversation, discussion, the example of an older person, self-control, etc.); forms (associations, communes, communities, mutual aid funds, circles, library associations, partnership courts, etc.); types (general meetings, congresses, gatherings, gatherings, classes, meetings, etc.).
Students (the “eternal students” certainly played a special role in it) by combining the traditions and customs of their educational institution, created rules of behavior in the student environment, which were strictly followed, appealed to these rules at student courts of honor. These rules were called “codes of honor”. They were never rigidly fixed and were mostly fixed conventionally. They included a list of the so-called “natural rights of a student”. They are: the right to be called a student and wear a student uniform (the main feature of corporate style); the right to inviolability and impunity; recognition of guilt and punishment for it belonged to the competence of the court of honor only (“presumption of innocence”); the right to board; the right to corporate assistance; the right to create student organizations.

Collaboration between Universities and hospitals has provided the National Health Service (NHS) with many excellent Biomedical Scientists through the placement year scheme. Here, we document the number of students joining the placement scheme and the number and type of hospital departments offering student placements over a 10-year period.
Prior to 2012, students were able to join fully-funded placements through the Higher Education Funding Council for England (HEFCE). Since then, there has been a fluctuation in numbers completing a placement year at the University of Essex, but the employability of these graduates remains consistently higher than our 3-year graduates. We demonstrate the positive impact of completing a placement year in an NHS hospital laboratory for students, and the contribution to university metrics in good degrees and graduate outcomes as well as the provision of much needed, qualified biomedical science staff to hospitals.

Full textAbstract:
Based on the academic performance grades of university students, various high-stakes decisions are made, including determinations of pass/fail status, the awarding of diplomas, and eligibility for placement in graduate education programs. According to the criteria used, the types of assessment are divided into two assessment, criterion-referenced assessments and norm-referenced assessments. When the grading system of state universities in Turkish higher education is examined, it has been observed that some universities use criterion-referenced assessment, some use norm-referenced assessment, and some use both assessment systems. The purpose of this research is to examine whether inter-university grading systems show significant concordance in the context of university students' letter grades or not. In other words, it is to reveal whether there are skew in the grading systems of public universities. In this context, 250 individuals were simulated in a way that their class/group achievement level would show a normal distribution. Among the public universities in the 2021-2022 Academic Performance Ranking of Universities (URAP), four state universities were determined in the first quarter, second quarter, third quarter, and last quarter. The letter grades of each student's academic success grade in the relevant universities were determined and it was examined whether there was a significant concordance between the letter grades of the students. In the study, it was concluded that in the context of university students' letter grades, inter-university grading systems generally do not show significant concordance. The findings are expected to contribute to the work of the Council of Higher Education and the University Education Commissions.

In the article the formation of legal education at the University of Melbourne, its short and successful path to worldwide recognitionis examined. The importance of researching such a successful example for national legal education is shown. Important researchby well-known professors who have worked at the University of Lviv and the University of Melbourne is depicted, and their contributionto the study of legal education in Melbourne is revealed.The author of the article shows that the experience of legal education in one of the oldest law schools in Australia – the Universityof Melbourne, which is now one of the world’s leading universities, as well as 50 best educational institutions in the world, is importantas an example of legal education for Ukrainian universities, in particular Lviv University. Legal education at Lviv University occupiesa significant place in the education of young professionals for crucial government positions.Founded in 1853, the University of Melbourne is the second oldest university in Australia. This is a state research university. Itconsists of 10 colleges located on the main campus and in the surrounding suburbs, which offer academic, cultural and sports programs.The University of Melbourne often ranks first among Australian universities in the world rankings. More than 46 % of his students areforeigners. This school is officially accredited by the Australian Department of Education and Training.The teaching of law, until 1873 at the University of Melbourne, was governed directly by the board and faculty; there was nocouncil or committee in charge of the faculty, and no head or administrator to lead the law course other than faculty and university officials.It was the council that decided on the details of the curriculum and considered students’ complaints about things like absenteeismand lecture venues. Other disciplines were in the same position. Not only in the field of law, but in general, the university did not havefaculties that would be responsible for certain areas of study.The university was so small that in 1872 it had only 134 students, 53 of whom studied law. In the early 1870s, the situation wasfavorable for change. The council committee explored the possibility of expanding the teaching of law by creating more subjects andlecture courses, and at the same time, by creating a new body, a faculty to oversee them.The council committee called this change the creation of a law school, and since then the terms “law school” (“law schools”) and“law faculty” have sometimes been interchangeable. Law classes were called a “school of law” for several months after their foundingin 1872. This term was sometimes used in another sense (as a discipline with honors). Despite the ambiguous terminology, the councilmeant the creation of the faculty and the accompanying reorganization of teaching in 1872–1873.The author of the article argues that building a legal education in Ukraine is impossible without a proper study of the experience,knowledge and practical skills that existed at the University of Melbourne. The opinion is based on the fact that the organization ofwork, cooperation with students and involvement of a large number of foreigners remains a model to follow. This approach to coope -ration and establishing contacts with their structure has made them famous and universally recognized worldwide. We can see thisbecause the University of Melbourne is now one of the world’s leading universities, as well as one of 50 best educational institutionsin the world.

One of the requirements for interior design students by the Council for Interior Design Accreditation (CIDA) is to be “prepared to work in a variety of contexts as well as across geographic, political, social, environmental, cultural, and economic conditions.” To help with this preparation, faculty partners from two institutions- the University of Minnesota Interior Design and the Architecture Obafemi Awolowo University in Nigeria- created unique learning experiences for their students by using Collaborative Online International Learning (COIL). The main goal of this teaching methodology is to develop students’ cross-cultural competence by linking university classes in different countries. Two COIL projects were chosen to help students practice solving design problems while responding to specific socio-cultural contexts. Students from both countries seemed to greatly benefit from this learning experience. Findings from students’ reflections after the learning experiences indicated deeper intercultural sensitivity in their design solutions and appreciation of technology and collaborative teaching in developing this sensitivity. Overall the framework of COIL strengthened the integration of multicultural learning experiences in both settings.

The 1970s saw a significant increase in the volume of research on individuals’ subjective experience of well-being. The subjective well-being of university students has received less attention, however. Student well-being is important, given the widespread concern over the high dropout rates at institutions of higher learning in South Africa (Council of Higher Education, 2013; Van Zyl, 2010). The paper adds to the existing body of literature through an exposition on the possible influence of variables forthcoming from the literature, on the overall subjective well-being of first-year economics students at a comprehensive university. Variables that displayed a significant and positive contribution to subjective well-being were first-year and extended-degree students, the university being the institution of choice, feeling at home, knowing exactly how the university functions, and watching or participating in sport. Variables that were found to be significant with a negative contribution to subjective well-being levels were: worries about tests, studying less than 10 hours per week and, interestingly, living on campus.

The article presents a structural description of the functioning of the regional information and communication system “Student and Labor” (SAL). This system is aimed at identifying and developing creatively gifted youth in the field of science, techniques and technology and is focused on the gradual involvement of university students in real work and interaction with leading enterprises in the region. The first cycle of the SAL system functioning is described, which has a complete character and has already led to a concrete result. The bank of information about the leading enterprises of the region that took part at the initial stage of the functioning of the SAL system were formed as well as the bank of 150 themes of scientific research for student projects, which were proposed by the enterprises themselves. All projects are focused on the practical significance of research for the enterprises themselves, as well as for students, their supervisors from universities and scientific consultants from enterprises that have embarked on joint research activities, which at the first stages are mostly of informational and educational nature. The Union of Employers of the Samara Region and the Council of Rectors of Universities in the Samara region are already taking the necessary measures to implement the described cycle of the functioning of the system SAL in the current academic year.

The study shows that a patriarchal society where women are still in the minority when it comes to leadership positions is still dominating. A few studies are exploring the role of women in leadership in government and industry, and very little focus is paid on higher education institutions and more especially – from a female leadership perspective. Therefore, this paper aims to determine the factors that hindered female students from attaining leadership positions and simultaneously make recommendations to create more leadership opportunities in a nationally recognized student-led organization known as the Student Representative Council at a large public South African higher education institution – the University of KwaZulu-Natal. The target population was 16 female leaders who served in the University’s Student Representative Council from 2019 to 2020 of which 13 had responded. A qualitative approach was followed and interviews were conducted. The study employed inductive qualitative thematic analysis using NVIVO 12. Findings revealed that the Student Representative Council structure at the university was patriarchal with little commitment to gender equality. Males outnumbered women in leadership roles. Portfolios assigned to women were mainly administrative rather than leadership. Females were subjected to stereotypical behavior. The study recommended ways to promote female student leadership whereby policy and constitution change is required to facilitate gender equality and the implementation of quotas. Women should be empowered to enhance their leadership skills via effective leadership development programs specifically designed for females to address the leadership gap between males and females.

The creation of educational audio-visual materials has recently become popular. It is an innovative and entertaining practice, which can reach millions of people through social networks and YouTube. For this reason, this specific was designed for students enrolled in the following three modules: The Spanish political system, public administration in Spain, and institutions and decision-making structures in both the of joint degrees in law and political science and in public management and economic sciences, as well as degrees in public management and degrees in political science. Educational audio-visual materials were co-designed and co-created to define a Municipal Council, its workings and its organization. This was a three phased experiment.. In the first, under the supervision of teachers, students developed five videos showing how Municipal Councils work. This allowed university students to become involved in a collaborative learning activity through which they acquired a series of important skills for future use, in addition to reinforcing their learning by participating in creation of digital teaching material, and also establishing a new teaching methodology consisting of learning-by-doing. In the second, professors and students attended CEIP Severo Ochoa Primary School in Madrid showing videos and playing two practical games, thus promoting knowledge transfer. In the third, the teachers evaluated the impact of this activity and the degree of satisfaction of university and primary school students. The result was positive, because not only was an educational innovation successfully implemented, but also a large part of objectives were achieved.

By all means, teachers need the evaluation and feedback of their students to know how they are doing and whether their efforts are fruitful or going the wrong direction. Consulting with students and exploring their perspective of the proficiency of their teachers could be the most efficient method to develop and enhance the teaching efficiency. This paper aims at probing to what extent the academic members in Applied Science University possess the professional competencies required, as per the students’ perspective. We chose the most important four dimensions of core competencies associated with teaching in higher education, namely professional, technological, humane, and assessment. A designed survey shall be developed and distributed among a representative sample of students. The analysis of which will show the availability level of such competencies, and any missing ones, from the students’ perspective. Qualitative data will also be gathered through structured interviews with the Deanship of Student Affairs and the Students Council members. In the light of the paper’s findings, a conceptual framework will be developed and a set of recommendations will be submitted to the top management of the university in order to be considered in the future academic hiring process, and the development programs of the current academic staff aiming at improving the teaching process efficiency.

“Tribes Sharing Life” is an educational intervention about deceased organ donation for American Indian Tribal College and University (TCU) students. The classroom and web-based program was derived from cultural values and beliefs, and the Transtheoretical Model. The aim of this study was to develop and formatively evaluate the intervention for acceptability and satisfaction among advisory council members ( n = 10) and TCU students ( n = 22). Council evaluation results were strong. All items met the <3.0 mean acceptability criterion using an intervention materials review form. Content validity indices met criterion of 0.80 overall and for each item. Dialogue among tribal advisors led to culturally based changes in the images that portrayed the need for organ donation. TCU student evaluation of the revised intervention resulted in overall mean scores that met criterion for acceptability and satisfaction. Tribes Sharing Life is a formatively evaluated intervention that should undergo efficacy testing.

As a result of the positive reform of higher education for educational institutions and the approval of the democratic statute of 1863, the performance of the university’s scientific function, serving the interests of society, and the level of academic freedoms increased. Reactionary activists saw a threat in expanding the powers of professorial boards (M. Hiliarov-Platonov, M. Katkov, M. Liubymov, V. Puryshkevych and others). Progressive professors (in particular O. Walter, O. Kovalevskyi, V. Modestov and others) advocated the preservation of the autonomous provisions of the statute of 1863.The process of restoration of university autonomy in 1861–1882 is covered. Organizational autonomy in Kharkiv Imperial University is characterized. Thus, the board of the institution developed regulations for students and outsiders, rules of the university court, instructions of the student inspector, rules on scholarships and financial aid, rules on the use of textbooks, rules on testing applicants’ knowledge, rules of student control, projects on faculty division to the branch. The effectiveness of faculty meetings has increased. There was an improvement in the quality of departments; the scientific achievements of applicants for vacant positions were analyzed in detail. The council also filed a petition with the ministry to increase the salary of an associate professor.The academic autonomy of Kharkiv University is analyzed. Professors’ lectures became interesting for students due to the attraction of best practices. Teachers constantly underwent scientific internships abroad. A catalog of books was prepared for the library, the funds were constantly replenished due to works published in the university printing house. Cooperation with secondary schools in the district was close.The analysis of organizational autonomy of Kyiv University of St. Volodymyr (council meetings discussed draft legislation proposed by the ministry; approved decisions on reading special courses for students, allocating funds for laboratory equipment, filling vacancies, reviewing student work, etc.). It is also interesting that the minutes of the meetings were published in the “University News”.It is proved that the academic autonomy of Kyiv University was characterized by the strengthening of academic freedoms, educational activities of teachers, providing assistance to low-income students, conducting charitable events. The growth of independence could not go unnoticed by the authorities, which was embodied in the relevant regulations.

Full textAbstract:
Since the emergence of models and frameworks for college and university internationalization in the early 1990s, post-secondary world language education has remained a core dimension of internationalization in theory (American Council on Education, no date; Association of American Colleges and Universities, 2007; Hudzik, 2011; Rudzki, 1995; Spencer-Oatey and Dauber, 2016). Yet a report by the American Council on Education (ACE, 2017) found that, in actuality, most institutions have afforded little attention to developing students’ second language proficiency despite the considerable benefits of language learning experiences to prepare learners for the challenges of a global workforce in the 21st century. This article argues that developing an informed intercultural mindset paired with proficiency in at least one language other than English is essential for graduates to take advantage of the many professional, societal, and educational opportunities of today’s global community. To this end, we urge internationalizing post-secondary institutions with an interest in providing students with second language skills and the relevant educational experiences for which leading language organizations consistently advocate (American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages, 2015a, 2015b; Modern Language Association, 2007).

This paper presents a study conducted by Inegbedion, Adu and Ofulue from the National Open University of Nigeria. The study focused on the quality of access (admission and registration) at NOUN from a student perspective. A survey design was used for the study while a multi-stage sampling technique was used to select the sample size. All the 78,555 registered students in all the 61 Study Centres of the University at the time of the study formed the population; out of which 3,060 students were sampled. The questionnaire instrument is the Institutional Internal QA Tools and Instrument developed by the African Council for Distance Education (ACDE) as a regulatory mechanism. The data collected were analyzed using simple statistics. The result showed that 66% of the students confirmed that NOUN has published clear policies on the admission and registration of students. About 29.1% of the students were not satisfied with the transparency of the admission process. In conclusion, the study revealed high quality of access and some deficiencies in website and Internet connectivity.

Abstract Objectives This study aimed to assess nutritional intake, physical activity levels and their association to metabolic health in a cohort of university biomedical science students. Methods This study followed a cross-sectional design. Participants were recruited from a third-year endocrinology practical class from The University of Queensland (2018–2019), with complete data obtained from 324 students, aged 19–25 years (n = 196 females and 128 males of which 57% were Caucasian, 28% Asian, 7% Subcontinental Asian, 6% of mixed race or other, and 2% not disclosed). Nutritional intake was quantified using the Automated 24 h dietary assessment Tool (ASA24-Australia) and physical activity levels quantified using the Active Australia Survey. Results Mean height and body mass (±SD) was 164.36 cm (±6.85) and 60.0 kg (±10.6) in females and 178.1 cm (±7.41) and 73.4 kg (±11.5) in males. Median daily energy intake was 6760 kJ in females and 10,338 kJ in males. The following nutrients had a low percentage of female and/or male students meeting the minimum recommendations: fibre (24% of females and 30% of males), calcium (16% of females and 32% of males), folate (32% of females, 59% of males), iron (6% of females, 80% of males), and potassium (33% of females and 32% of males). In females, median daily intake was well below recommendations for calcium (621 vs 1000 mg) and iron (8.8 vs 18 mg). Sufficient level of physical activity, defined as at least 150 minutes over at least five sessions in one week, was met in 82% of females and 85% of males. Conclusions These results suggest that undergraduate biomedical science students in Australia have inadequate intakes of fibre, calcium, folate, and potassium, with a particular concern regarding the very low intake of calcium and iron among young adult females. Associations to metabolic health, including blood glucose control, insulin sensitivity, advanced glycation end products, and body composition are currently being analysed. Funding Sources The study was funded by institutional support from School of Biomedical Sciences, The University of Queensland, Australia. L.A.G. was supported by an Early Career Fellowship from the National Health and Medical Research Council and Heart Foundation (Australia), and a UQ Amplify Fellowship. K.M.M was supported by a Senior Research Fellowship from the National Health and Medical Research Council.

Full textAbstract:
This paper explored pedagogical strategies that accounting teachers employ in the classroom to manage Gifted and Talented Students (GATS) in the pre-tertiary institutions in Ghana. A multiple case study design was used to observe and interview 24 accounting teachers who were purposefully selected from three pre-tertiary institutions in Ghana. The interview guide and focus group discussion guide were the main instruments used to collect data and were analysed thematically. The study revealed that achievement tests, reasoning skills and problem-solving skills were the predominant strategies employed by teachers in identifying GATS. It emerged further from the study that all the teachers involved in the study do not prepare differentiated lessons for GATS and therefore teach all the students in the classroom with different learning needs the same content at the same time. Thus, the study recommends that the various stakeholders and policymakers in education such as Ghana Education Service (GES), the National Council for Curriculum and Assessment (NaCCA) and the Ministry of Education (MoE) should make a conscious effort to develop curricula and enact policies that will promote differentiated lessons in pre-university institutions in Ghana.
