Analysis of University Education Management Based on Artificial Intelligence

With the rapid development of information technology, the process of informatization of education management has been accelerated. In this context, more and more education management information systems have been used in education management, providing a lot of data support for education decision-making. In addition, the development of artificial intelligence has greatly changed the way people work and live. Intelligence has emerged in various fields, bringing great convenience to people, especially the university education management. This study will integrate artificial intelligence and university classroom teaching and apply it in the field of education management. In particular, the proposed intelligent education management system mainly includes three submodules: preclass attendance, in-class state monitoring, and after-class online learning. The main function of the preclass attendance module is that half an hour before the class starts, the camera captures students’ video information and sends it back to the convolutional neural network (CNN) model for face recognition processing. In class, the state detection module is mainly based on face recognition to judge the state of students. The after-class module analyzes the evaluation information of students’ online learning to provide a teaching reference for the school. The system proposed in this study can improve the quality of students’ classroom learning and teachers’ monitoring of the quality of students’ classroom.

Prospects: further research should be aimed at identifying key relevant innovation competencies.

Personal characteristics of a 21st-century teacher: An analysis of empirical studies of the problem

Introduction. Modern scientific literature lacks evidence-based empirical studies of teacher personality. Singular reviews of the empirical studies related to the teacher personality are fulfilled within the framework of one theoretical model and do not cover results obtained in other directions of research, which does not benefit the practice of modern educational managers, teachers or educational psychologists. This gap might be filled with generalising empirical evidence through analysing international publications on personality of the modern teacher.Aim. The article aims to review empirical studies dedicated to the characteristics of a 21st-century teacher, to understand the existing limitations in the research of teacher personality, and to outline future research directions for the optimisation of today’s educational practice.Methods. The review includes the publications selected with searching keywords along with additional descriptors, followed by the analysis of content of relevant publications. The review covers articles published in the last 20 years.Results. The results of empirical studies, which meet the research selection criteria (have representative volumes of research samples and performed using measuring tools with known psychometric properties), allowed the author to distinguish several main clusters for studying teacher personal characteristics. The most prevalent are the studies of teacher personality within the five-factor framework, teacher emotional intelligence and motivation (job motivation, intrinsic motivation and semantic preferences). Within these clusters, the author has identified the tendencies, which demonstrate personal characteristics of a 21st-century teacher and correspond to subjective paradigm of modern education, effective teaching and effective management of education processes.Scientific novelty. The generalisation of results allowed the author to determine the basic personality characteristics of the modern teacher. The presented results reveal the patterns of personality development, work behaviour of a modern teacher and can serve as the basis for further research in the field of educational sciences, personality psychology, labour psychology and educational psychology.Practical significance. The specific historical knowledge about personal characteristics of a 21st-century teacher may serve for strategic and tactical decisions in the field of education management; determine the tactics of managing modern teaching staff; design teacher-centric programmes for the educational psychological services and educational programmes for the training, retraining and advanced training of teachers.

СУЧАСНІ ТЕНДЕНЦІЇ ТА АКТУАЛЬНІ ПРОБЛЕМИ ПІДГОТОВКИ МЕНЕДЖЕРІВ ОСВІТИ

Анотація. Проаналізовано проблему професійної підготовки фахівців у сфері освітнього менеджменту. Виявлено, що поява зазначеної спеціальності зумовлена метаморфозами в суспільно-економічному житті та гострою конкуренцією між освітніми установами. З огляду на чисельність полівекторних наукових публікацій зазначена проблема актуальна і динамічна, відтак поле для її розкриття дає нові дослідницькі напрями. Огляд літератури дозволив окреслити такі ключові проблеми освітнього менеджменту: практична діяльність керівника, упровадження інновацій; процес підготовки фахівців; моніторинг ефективності та оцінка якості освітнього менеджменту. Через ознайомлення та аналіз із ними ми зробили спробу розкрити сучасні тенденції та актуальні проблеми підготовки менеджерів освіти. З’ясовано, що освітній менеджмент — міждисциплінарна категорія, котра перебуває на периферії теорії і практики освітньої галузі та економіки. І якщо в першому варіанті зв’язок очевидний, то у другому — на перший погляд латентний, проте саме суспільно-економічні процеси детермінують діяльність керівника, завдання якого полягає у вивченні тенденцій ринку праці та побудові ефективної стратегії загального розвитку закладу освіти. Актуальним питанням є висвітлення базових для керівника особистісних якостей, психологічних характеристик і практичних умінь. Так, чільне місце займає вивчення когнітивної сфери, творчого потенціалу та готовності до інноваційної діяльності. Злободенною залишається і проблема організації освітнього процесу. Зокрема, компетентнісного підходу і розкриття творчих можливостей студентів як ресурсу для майбутньої професійної діяльності. Глибше розуміння професійної підготовки забезпечив фрагментарний аналіз окремих аспектів діяльності закладів вищої освіти в Україні, Великій Британії та Сполучених Штатах Америки (по одному закладу із кожного регіону). Установлено, що загальні тенденції підготовки аналогічні, проте європейські ЗВО акцентують увагу на міжнародній академічній мобільності; США — на практичній компоненті; України — теоретичній базі. На основі вищезазначеного матеріалу ми розробили ієрархічну модель факторів-детермінантів освітнього процесу підготовки освітніх менеджерів. Визначили, що їхній вплив, залежно від масштабності дії — лише на освіту чи на суспільство в цілому, може бути явний або латентний. Така модель дає чітке уявлення про місце освітнього менеджменту в суспільному житті. Перспективи дальших досліджень убачаємо в розробленні конкретних рекомендацій, що стосуються розв’язання актуальних проблем підготовки менеджерів освіти. Ключові слова: заклад вищої освіти, професійна підготовка, керівник, освітній менеджмент, лідерство, освітній процес, інновації, мислення зростання. Формул: 0; рис.: 2; табл.: 0; бібл.: 13.

A Corpus-Based Study of the Linguistic Errors Committed by the Iranian EFL Learners in English Translation of MA Research Abstracts of Educational Management Based on Liao’s (2010) Model

Given the importance and the precision required in the translation of research abstracts, this descriptive quantitative research made an attempt to investigate the analysis of the type and frequency of the linguistic errors occurring in the English translations of 40 academic MA research abstracts in the field of educational management. To this end, 40 academic MA thesis abstracts in the field of educational management from 2009 to 2019 were gathered from Shiraz Azad University through the saturation method. Then, the errors were categorized based on the classification of error types adapted from Liao’s model (2010). The results of the study revealed that based on Liao’s categorization (2010), the frequencies of possible linguistic errors by educational management include grammatical mistake or ungrammatical syntax of target language (F = 190), excessive literal translation, which leads to ambiguous translation (F = 30), awkward expression, including ambiguous meaning, mismatch, redundant words, and unnecessary repetition, (F = 29), incorrect character, improper punctuation marks, or inconsistency in term translation (F = 26), excessive free translation, which differentiates the translation from the original text (F = 6), and inappropriate register (F = 6).

Social impact of extracurricular activities in terms of the universality of the benefits involved

In the field of educational management, extracurricular activities play a very important role. In most schools, pupils come from different backgrounds and in the academic environment they form a new, special community. And extra-curricular activities help the pupils to integrate into the team more easily. Creating specific skills in those activities, especially coping quickly with potential challenges, is important for pupils who feel more relaxed in such an informal environment than during class. And the high possibility of diversification that extracurricular activities entails has increased potential to bring benefits throughout the lives of current pupils. The topicality of the research derives from the fact that high school pupils must be prepared to direct their own learning and development, and extracurricular activities contribute significantly to this process. Based on this reality, the author aimed to elucidate the essence of extracurricular activities and analyze the benefits that their practice brings to the students involved, from a short and long-term perspective
