Distance education in the conditions of martial law in institutions of higher education: development and practice

The aim of the article is to establish the peculiarities of existing obstacles and promising directions of online education system d evelopment in the context of military conflicts of the present. The research is based on the results of the study of scientific literature in the field of online education during war and the study of practical aspects of this issue. The analytical and bibliographic method was used to conduct the study by studying the scientific literature on the issues of online education in higher education during martial law. An online questionnaire survey of the heads of departments of higher education institutions working with students during military conflicts in the territory of the HEIs was also used. As the heads of departments of higher education noted in their responses, the main obstacles to the development of online education are the lack of development and implementation of educational online platforms, the low rate and quality of creation or adaptation of information technology and e-learning tools. The participants of the survey identified promising areas of development of online learning in higher education during military operations: updating of software and hardware, providing higher education institutions with quality Internet access and distance learning, taking into account current trends in information and educational technologies.

Assessing changes in the public communication of higher education institutions: A survey of leaders of Swiss universities and colleges

Over the past decades, higher education institutions (HEIs) across the world have institutionalized communication departments and played an increasingly important role in communicating science to the public. While a growing body of research has analyzed the practices and structures of central communication departments in HEIs, little is known about developments over time. This study examines perceived changes in HEI communication along different analytical dimensions and across HEI types. Conceptually, neo-institutional theory is used to derive the factors that foster this change, specifically the new public management reforms and the accompanying coercive, normative, and mimetic pressures on HEIs. The empirical study is based on a survey of 196 members of HEI leadership in Switzerland. The results show that, according to organizational leaders, HEI communication has diversified and intensified considerably over the last five to ten years. It has also become – albeit to a somewhat lesser extent – more professional and strategic. Multiple linear regression analysis reveals that the strongest predictors of perceived change in HEI communication are the goal to build public reputation, the perceived competition among HEIs for public reputation, and the observation of other Swiss HEIs. The study outlines implications for future research and for HEI communicators.

A Research on the Use of the Alexander Technique in Flute Education Given in the Music Department and Music Teaching Departments of Faculties of Fine Arts in Turkey

The Alexander Technique is a method that emerged as a result of Actor Frederick Matthias Alexander’s work on himself to solve the problems he had with his voice during his performance. This technique, which was effective for himself, rapidly became widespread because it was tried by different people over time and positive results were obtained. Today, it is effective not only for music but also for people from different disciplines to use their bodies more comfortably and thus have a natural posture. In this sense, in the study, ten different instructors working in various locations were selected as the study group to reach the findings related to the use of the Alexander Technique and the results of the technique in flute lessons given in the music departments of higher education institutions in Turkey. Framed by the researcher, interview questions with expert opinions were asked, and the data obtained were tabulated and presented with the content analysis method, one of the qualitative research methods.

FORMALIZATION OF THE PROCESS OF PREPARATION OF THE TEACHERS STUDYLOAD PLAN OF THE HIGHER EDUCATION INSTITUTION DEPARTMENT

A formalized description of the process of planning the studyload of teachers of the department for the academic year at the department of higher education institution. The relevance of presenting the model in a formalized form is determined by the need to have a unified view of the processes of preparation of the required data, principles and algorithms of data transformation, as well as to unify the results of presenting the final results. The proposed formalized description is considered as a basis for further creation of an automated system for calculating and distributing studyload with the possibility of automated generation and distribution of reporting documents, including semester plan and studyload plan, and personal extracts for preparing part "Educational work" in teacher’s individual plans. The presented process reflects the peculiarities of the distribution and presentation of initial data and results of studyload planning at a particular department of a particular institution of higher education in Ukraine. The Enterprise Architect design support system was used to prepare the models, and therefore the proposed formalized description can be adapted to the specifics of another higher education institution or its department. The basis of the formalized description is the domain model. Each of the essentials of the domain model is represented by a set of attributes that allows the use of description tuples in the design of the database of the respective software system. The stages of training load planning in the form of BPMN business process diagrams and UML activity diagrams are defined. Mathematical relations and descriptions of the order of calculations are presented, which allow to obtain the set values of the values at certain stages of the plan formation. The proposed results are obtained on the basis of the regulatory framework of Ukraine in the field of education.

Barriers to Academic Career Development for University Teachers

Barriers to Academic Career Development for University TeachersThe relevance of the issue in the present study is determined by the fact that it is difficult to engage and retain employees (including young ones) in the academic sphere because of various career barriers, which complicate pursuing a career in higher education. The study was conducted using the method of expert interviews with 108 full-time employees of Russian universities including administration, management, academic and teaching staff. These interviews identified the key barriers to academic careers for researchers and also classified these barriers. Presented findings can be useful for HR departments of higher education institutions for building various career paths for the employees of different ages, or for identifying specific types of barriers in career development to be overcome. The results of the study are relevant for academic and teaching staff interested in career development. The prospect of further research is to conduct a quantitative analysis based on the questionnaire results received from interviewing academic and teaching staff with the use of the proposed classification of academic career barriers.

The article aims to analyse the possibility to use methods of web search and identification of semantic text patterns with a view to automatising the web search and assessment of professionally oriented texts used to train students at foreign language departments of higher education institutions of mineral re-source development profile. The work provides an overview of relevant AI methods that may be employed to perform the tasks mentioned above and anal-yses a number of similar works. It offers a structure of patterns that can be used to find relevant research articles and describes approaches to assessment of the texts found. It also proposes the front-end structure of an application that can be tasked with web search and subsequent assessment of texts. The case study pre-sents semantic analysis and assessment of a professionally oriented text written in English. The research done shows good prospects for using Semantic Web technologies for web search and assessment of texts available on the Internet not only for training students but also, in broader formulation, for teaching and learning in a chosen direction. This is ensured by flexibility of methods for se-mantic pattern search and identification. With respect to further development of the research, the authors consider designing an operational application for text search and assessment and also outcome analysis for a variety of directions of learning within the mineral resources development domain.

Деструктивная активность молодежи в современной России и способы ее профилактики: экспертная оценка

The article is devoted to the current problem of prevention of destructive forms of youth activity. Many scientists of various scientific specialties are currently engaged in this topic and a large number of studies have been devoted to this issue. The main purpose of this work is to conduct a systematic analysis of expert assessments of the destructive activity of young people in modern Russia and ways to prevent it. The empirical analysis carried out within the framework of this study includes qualitative data from expert interviews taken in 2021. 10 experts were interviewed, including representatives of state authorities, heads of regional branches of Russian youth public organizations, as well as departments of higher educational institutions, teachers and educators. As a result of the study, it was found that the destructive activity of young people is a significant problem in Russian society. The main factors are socio-economic and informational (dissemination of negative information via the Internet). All structures of the state should be engaged in the prevention of destructive activity of young people: authorities, law enforcement agencies, educational institutions, as well as public organizations. Prevention measures are diverse: from strategic (for example, the development of a national idea) to purely tactical (the work of school psychologists).

Retracted: Quality management in higher education: Developing the methodology on the basis of total quality management

AbstractUnderstanding the needs of end users (customers, stakeholders) and the simultaneous application of new methodologies for the implementation of strategic plans in order to meet the needs of external (employers) and internal consumers (students and teachers) are essential elements of quality management in higher education. This article aimed to investigate the general state of modern quality management in higher education. A survey of consumers of educational services in Ukraine was conducted in order to study the current state of quality management in higher education. Interested parties’ theory and total quality management methodology in quality management of higher education served as the basis for the research methodology. The requirements of the administration and departments of higher educational institutions, students and employers in Ukraine to the quality of education were studied. Requirements for meeting the needs of consumers of educational services have been developed. During the study, the principle of ‘student‐centred learning’ and the protection of key interests of students were implemented. It was found that the quality of higher education in Ukraine is characterised by a significant level of dissatisfaction. An empirical assessment of the gap between expectations and actual experience of obtaining higher education was carried out and the discrepancy between education in Ukraine and the requirements of stakeholders was proved.

Studiensammlung «Античный лапидарий» в Реставрационно-хранительском центре «Старая Деревня» как пример экспонирования эпиграфических источников

Studiensammlung is a phenomenon originating from the Classicist European tradition of creating open storages of pieces of art and scientific materials available at museums and universities as visual aids for students, scholars and collectors. Such collections have not lost their relevance today, as evidenced by their popularity at the Römisch-Germanisches Museum at Cologne, the University of Vienna, the British Museum and many others. Studiensammlung of the Hermitage Department of Greek and Roman Antiquities was opened for visitors at the Restoration and Storage Center “Staraya Derevnya” in 2015. About ninety epigraphic texts from archaeological sites in the Northern Black Sea region which were excavated in the 19th–20th centuries are presented here. The chronology of materials exhibited in the open storage “Antique Lapidarium” covers nine hundred years of Ancient Greek epigraphy: from the 6th century BC to the 3rd century AD. Each of the documents exhibited has its own significance for the reconstruction of the history of the region. The greater part of the collection was formed by the finds from archaeological excavations of the 19th century at the ancient sites of Tanais and Gorgippia, at the edge of 19th and 20th centuries in Panticapaeum and at the dawn of the 20th century in Olbia. Plenty of the pieces were purchased at different times. For example, many Gorgippian inscriptions were bought by N. I. Veselovsky in 1908 in Anapa. Due to various historical circumstances the Hermitage funds were replenished by epigraphic monuments from private collections of the Stroganovs and N. P. Likhachev, as well as from the collections of the Academy of Fine Arts and the Leningrad Historical and Linguistic Institute. In the mid-20th century and its second half, the Nymphaeum, Berezan and Chersonese archaeological expeditions of the State Hermitage made an invaluable contribution to the funds. Latin inscriptions are presented at the exhibition, but the monuments of ancient Greek epigraphy make up its bulk. Lapidary sources, except for those that are not amenable to recovery, can be considered by category. Particularly noteworthy are proxenoi, honorary decrees and manumissions, as well as dedications to gods. In addition, in the “Ancient Lapidarium” one can find table graffiti, inscriptions on amulets, and lead letters concerning workaday topics. The conclusions about the unique character and diversity of the collection are obvious. In addition to epigraphists who study the nuances of the chronology and paleography of local versions of ancient Greek writing, the collection of inscriptions of the Department of Greek and Roman Antiquities should undoubtedly attract schoolchildren and students of specialized departments of higher educational institutions. The importance and benefits of open storage for historians and archaeologists are determined by the fact that the gallery contains a rare collection of documents, which sometimes are the only source for restoring historical events and clarifying knowledge about the state system, official religious cults in the Greek colonies of the Northern Black Sea region, about private and social life of residents of ancient cities in the region. Ancient authors did not always pay enough attention to the periphery of the Greek world, but epigraphic monuments help fill such gaps in.

Ustanowienie sowieckiego systemu przysposobienia obronnego w cywilnych szkołach wyższych we Lwowie (1944-1961)

ESTABLISHMENT OF THE SOVIET SYSTEM OF MILITARY TRAINING IN CIVIL HIGHER EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS OF LVIV (1944-1961) 
 This article presents information about the restoration, establishing and opening of higher education institutions in Lviv during the last period of the Second World War and in the first postwar years. The author underscores that the restored universities were already part of the Soviet educational system. According to the Decree of the Council of People’s Commissars of the Soviet Union No. 413 of 13 April 1944, the military training of students of higher education institutions was introduced. The main task of the military departments was the military training of students. However, in our research we indicate that the officers of these departments also took an active part in the mass defense, political propaganda and educational work of the universities. The author presents the prosopography of officers, and points to the complex scheme of staffing in the military departments of higher educational institutions, which was the effect of simultaneous subordination of these officers to military and civilian departments. During 1944-1991, the military departments with some differences operated in each civilian higher educational institution in Lviv, but most of these departments were liquidated by 1961-1962 during the military reform.

Theories and cognitive models of postnonclassical learning in natural science education

Introduction. The cognitive models formed in post – non-classical science-the theory of systems, the theory of self-organization and management, which were developed in natural science, are now widely used in social and humanitarian research. However, they have not yet been properly reflected in the content of natural science education of future employees of these fields – graduates of social, humanitarian and pedagogical departments of higher education institutions. The purpose of this study: theoretical and methodological justification, development and testing of a set of methodological tools for adapting cognitive models of post-non-classical science in the content of natural science education of students of social and humanitarian fields of higher education. Methodology and methods. The methodological basis of the research is based on the ideas of the system-synergetic approach, works on the philosophy and methodology of education, fundamental positions and basic principles of modern didactics. The theoretical basis is the works of domestic and foreign scientists on the development of the content of education, educational technologies and the organization of the educational process at the University. Used – modeling and forecasting, analysis and synthesis, observation, questioning, testing, experimental work. Results and scientific novelty. The theoretical and methodological justification of the need to adapt cognitive models of post-non-classical science in the content of natural science education of the Humanities is given, and the principles are defined. The complex has a linear-concentric structure and includes a basic training course, a system of elective training courses and interdisciplinary modules, technologies and teaching methods that support it. During testing of the complex was performed: ability to operate basic concepts of post-nonclassical science and apply them to describe the behavior of social and natural systems of different complexity, the volume of natural Sciences students ' knowledge, proficiency with the operation of their transfer to other subject areas.

Розробка методики оцінювання ефективності підрозділів закладу вищої освіти

As a result of reviewing the scientific literature, studying the legal framework, analysis of socio-economic conditions, modern practice of higher education institutions management, a contradiction was found between the high requirements for free economic management and the lack of criteria for evaluating its effectiveness on the basis of innovative technologies. This contradiction can be resolved by developing appropriate models and methods for evaluating the work effectiveness of higher education institutions. In this case, the method should be based on the results of the basic structural unit of the institution of higher education, meaning the department. The purpose of the work is to increase the informativeness of assessing the effectiveness for departments of higher education institutions by determining comprehensive performance indicators through the methodology of public funding distribution. The methodology is based on the principles of financing higher education institutions introduced by the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine. In order to create a methodology for assessing the quality of a higher education institution functioning, a set of criteria for assessing the education quality in higher education institution, the quality of scientific and international activities and financial activities were considered. The developed methodology allows to determining complex performance indicators through the method of public funding distribution, which operates with the following data: indicator of the estimated contingent of higher education; indicators of average competitive scores of entrants to study at the bachelor's and master's levels of education; an indicator of the scale of a higher education institution activity; indicators of personnel of scientific and pedagogical workers; indicator of a money amount from scientific works; students-winners indicators of a student scientific works competitions and Olympiads; an indicator of the publications number and citations according to the scientometric databases Scopus and Web of Science, meaning the international recognition for employees of higher education institutions. The formed methodology can be used by the administration of a higher education institution to calculate possible funding for the next year, determine the amount of funding for its departments, and so on.

Negative attitudes and perceptions of black South African accents in higher education institutions of the Western Cape Province

There is a negative approach and perception of the black South African accent in Drama Departments of higher education institutions in South Africa. The purpose was to discover the experiences of being an actor-in-training at a Drama Department at the University of Cape Town (UCT) and The South African School of Motion Picture Medium and Live Performance (AFDA). The research method was a qualitative design, and the sampling method was purposive. The inclusion criteria considered participants who could speak at least one South African language other than English. In other words, the researcher selected black South African natives from the Nguni language groups (isiZulu, isiXhosa, Siswati, isiNdebele) and Bantu language groups (Sesotho, Northern Sotho or Sepedi, Setswana). The exclusion criteria considered anyone registered at UCT or AFDA or already graduated with a degree certificate from those institutions. The researcher analysed the data using the Tesch analysis method. The study has communicated the effects of a voice-training syllabus that ignores authentic black South African vocal abilities. The participants’ experiences have shown a lack of interest in honing and encouraging black South African accents in the voice-training syllabus at Drama Departments in South African universities. It was concluded that there is more emphasis and attention given to British and American accents in the voice-training syllabus in South African universities and that black actors-in-training are encouraged to perform in these accents. The participants expressed that they do not feel prepared to perform characters with black South African accents because of this training.

Methodology for Ensuring Quality Management of Higher Education

Higher education’s quality management requires an understanding of the needs of end users (customers, interested parties) and involves the application of new methodologies for the formation and implementation of strategic plans in order to meet the needs of external (employers) and internal consumers (students and teachers). The purpose of the academic paper is to investigate the current state of quality management of higher education based on the study of the requirements of different interested parties’ groups by surveying consumers of educational services in Ukraine. The methodology is built on the basis of interested parties’ theory and TQM (Total Quality Management) methodology in quality management of higher education. The methodology has been used to study the requirements of the administration and departments of higher educational institutions (HEI), students and employers in Ukraine towards quality of education. The methodology is based on a survey, which involves the formation of a structure of customers’ requirements (interested parties) and sets of questions for different groups of customers. Four requirements frameworks have been designed to meet the needs of consumers of educational services, which ultimately ensures the identification of priorities and assessment of the overall quality of higher education. The results demonstrate the implementation of the principle of “student-centered learning” and the protection of key interests of students in order to obtain and receive qualitative higher education in Ukraine. The spread of the practice of TQM integration in the private sector has been revealed, which determines the adaptation of this methodology in the management processes of educational establishments. The presence of a significant level of dissatisfaction with the quality of higher education in Ukraine has been proven. An empirical assessment of the significant gap between expectations and actual experience of higher education has been made, and the inconsistency of education in Ukraine with the requirements of interested parties has been proven.

What kind of support do teachers really need in a blended learning context?

Teachers in higher education are the principal participants in blended learning (BL). Without their engagement, any attempt at BL might fail. In the process of BL implementation, they are faced with various challenges and are mostly not well prepared. However, studies have often neglected the feeling of teachers and their anxieties during BL implementation. There is insufficient research on teacher-related factors, especially teacher support. To address this question, a questionnaire was conducted among 123 respondents from 10 universities in China between March and May 2020. An analysis of the data collected shows that BL is widely recognised by teachers, but they lack confidence in their competence in BL implementation. The top three difficulties that faculty face are increased workload, a lack of funds to build their own courses and a lack of time to prepare online activities. Further, respondents have a clear need for pedagogical support, financial and infrastructure support, policy support, technical support and emotional support. These findings indicate that a targeted support system should be constructed to address these difficulties. Special attention should be paid to formulating BL guidance, offering a supportive environment that values BL efforts and relieving the workload of faculty.
 
 Implications for practice or policy:
 BL teachers need various support to design and implement BL courses.
 
 Higher education institutions should formulate guidance and clarify the definition and key implementation elements to guide BL practice.
 Management departments of higher education institutions should take effective measures to alleviate the burden of teachers.
 The training of teachers in the application of BL technology should focus on strengthening technological content knowledge and technological pedagogical knowledge.
