Towards a More Holistic Approach to Competence Development: The Case for Student-Centered Management and Business Education

The critique of management and business education literature indicates that the design of management and business courses and programs can do a relatively effective job of developing functional analytic competencies but are woefully inadequate at developing the higher-order cognitive, interpersonal and intrapersonal competencies that comprise the vast majority of competencies needed for effective “managing” or “organizing,” given the process-relational nature of organizational phenomena. In this paper, we propose a focus on schools for organizing and on higher-order competencies for organizing. This focus is much wider than one devoted to managing for-profit business organizations for shareholder wealth. Managing and organizing also apply to non- profit, volunteer, cooperative, governmental, and religious organizations, among an even wider range of human organizing patterns to “get things done.” We also point to the holistic nature of all learning and teaching in management and business education and therefore suggest that it must be processual and relational and embodied and contextual. Against this backdrop we explore student-centered learning and teaching pedagogies that have potential to be utilized in the classroom context to enhance or possibly develop any of the managing and organizing competencies identified in this paper.

IMPACT OF MEASUREMENT DRIVEN HR STATISTICS ON STRATEGIC HUMAN RESOURCE MANAGEMENT FUNCTIONS ON ORGANIZATIONAL PERFORMANCE IN INSURANCE INDUSTRY

There is a gap between readiness and importance in HR statistics sphere. Even though importance is there for business firms, there is a capability gap for measuring tools of HR outcomes and firms’ performance due to poor data quality lack to skills and inability of change (Tohmatsu, D. T., 2015). Despite the significant interest in human capital analytics (HCA), firms have tried to shift from operational reporting to data driven statistical tools which is now commonly used as Human Capital Analytics. This is mainly the result of the inability of involved teams to establish credible internal mechanisms and demonstrate capability and adding its value to the firm. This research will study the importance of establishing the impact of data driven statistical approach on organizational performance and suggest a method for its operationalization within a firm which requires working with related dimensions such as data quality, analytical competencies, and strategic ability to act and respond whilst focusing on people, process, and structure.

CVCDAP: an integrated platform for molecular and clinical analysis of cancer virtual cohorts.

Recent large-scale multi-omics studies resulted in quick accumulation of an overwhelming amount of cancer-related data, which provides an unprecedented resource to interrogate diverse questions. While certain existing web servers are valuable and widely used, analysis and visualization functions with regard to re-investigation of these data at cohort level are not adequately addressed. Here, we present CVCDAP, a web-based platform to deliver an interactive and customizable toolbox off the shelf for cohort-level analysis of TCGA and CPTAC public datasets, as well as user uploaded datasets. CVCDAP allows flexible selection of patients sharing common molecular and/or clinical characteristics across multiple studies as a virtual cohort, and provides dozens of built-in customizable tools for seamless genomic, transcriptomic, proteomic and clinical analysis of a single virtual cohort, as well as, to compare two virtual cohorts with relevance. The flexibility and analytic competence of CVCDAP empower experimental and clinical researchers to identify new molecular mechanisms and develop potential therapeutic approaches, by building and analyzing virtual cohorts for their subject of interests. We demonstrate that CVCDAP can conveniently reproduce published findings and reveal novel insights by two applications. The CVCDAP web server is freely available at https://omics.bjcancer.org/cvcdap/.

Особенности реализации концепционного метода музыкально-исторического анализа в классе хорового дирижирования

The significance of the in­depth analytical work of future musicians and teachers with the artistic image and its need for the process of conducting training are considered in the article. As the most important mechanism for the formation of students’ analytical competencies, the conceptual method by A. I. Demchenko for musical­historical analysis of choral works is considered. The essence of the proposed method is to determine the leading idea of the work and its subsequent disclosure in the form of a plan of capacious theses that concentrate the musical content. The features of its application in the conditions of university conducting and choral training are examined on the example of an analysis of a Russian spiritual concert of the last third of the 20th century, represented in the works by A. G. Schnittke – “Concert on verses by Grigor Narekatsi”, “Penance poems” and G. V. Sviridov “Concert in memory of A. A. Yurlov”. Two interrelated directions for training are proposed in the conducting class: analysis of spiritual concerts through the prism of the genre and through the prism of musical drama. The two­vector orientation of the study of compositions provides the opportunity for students to fully understand the phenomenon of a spiritual concert in modern musical art, not only to understand the trends leading to the emergence of its innovative models, but also to clarify students’ ideas about ways to discover musical content during performance. A direct study of the conceptual method of musical and historical analysis of choral works by students allows to avoid the narrowly professional interpretation of the conductor’s activity, to overcome the unambiguousness and static character of the performing interpretations of the musical text.

Analytical Competences of Teachers in Big Data in the Era of Digitalized Learning

The progress of technology in the field of education has led to the development of new professional skills in the teaching community, such as digital competence. Likewise, it has propagated the appearance of new learning environments mediated by technological resources that favor the generation of a large volume of data, known as Big Data, derived from the interactions of educational agents in virtual environments. This study aims to determine the level of digital competence in the informational area of teachers and to determine the projection of Big Data in them. For this study, a descriptive and correlational quantitative method was followed. The study sample consists of 832 Spanish teachers, with data collected through a questionnaire. The results reveal that the teaching staff have a medium level of digital competence in the informational area. The teachers obtained better valuations in the dimensions concerning storage and recovery, postulating themselves as connoisseurs of the Big Data concept to a large extent. In some instances, the teachers affirmed that sometimes they access and interpret the data generated by the digital interactions, transforming it into useful information to improve their teaching processes. Finally, our research shows that the level of digital competence in the informational area influences the degree of knowledge about Big Data.
