The Effectiveness of Sharing Blended Project Based Learning (SBPBL) Model Implementation in Operating System Course

The implementation of e-learning models in higher education have been tested widely, in order to discover their flexibility in research to time, place, students, courses, and other diverse conditions. This paper resulted from testing the implementation of an SBPBL model. This model maximizes shared e-learning resources in project based blended learning. This research used quantitative research design, with Research and Development using the ADDIE model in an Operating System course. Data were collected by questionnaires, interviews, and observation, then analyzed descriptively. Validity, practicality and effectives of the model were confirmed. Therefore, it is suitable to apply this blended learning system in such course.

Flipping the Technical and Vocational Classroom for Increased Instructional Outcomes

Higher learning institutions are under immense pressure to evolve within the realms of the fourth industrial revolution. Training institutions are anticipated to minimize learning costs in the face of increasing enrolments. The flipped classroom model is a suitable instructional pedagogy to achieve institutional goals considering the current ubiquitousness of information and communication technology. The systematic review was aimed at summarizing and identifying research gaps that help inform future research trajectories. The 3-step review process was composed of articles searching and retrieval, filtering and sorting, and final inclusion. Identified empirical articles were; i.) Retrieved and summarized on the basis of tittles, abstracts, methods and basic findings, ii.) Filtered and sorted on the basis of study discipline, and iii.) Synthesized on the basis of basic findings. It was found that the flipped classroom improved academic performance to a limited extent. Most articles unanimously concurred that the flipped classroom model makes learning enjoyable and enables the development of lower order cognitive skills outside class and higher order cognitive skills through F2F (face to face) active learning. The success of the model in higher education is hinged on excellent planning, implementation and evaluation.

“How to Give a Killer Pitch?” Performances of Entrepreneurial Narratives as Identity Models in Higher Education

In this ethnographic research, we explore the entrepreneurial narratives performed by entrepreneurs (from outside academia) as desirable identity-building models for Finnish university students during an Entrepreneurship Week course. We also reflect on the accessibility of these identity models for students in terms of gender, class, and education. Our analysis shows that, although the entrepreneurs were positioned as role models for all students, through performances of masculine entrepreneurial identities with certain kinds of special talents and social divisions between groups (i.e., female entrepreneurs, wageworkers, and researchers in ivory towers), it was apparent that not all university students are entrepreneurial types. In addition, the performed narratives challenged the traditional interpretations of what it means to be an academically educated graduate in working life (e.g., in terms of upward mobility). We conclude that Entrepreneurship Week was more about training an entrepreneurial workforce than acquiring skills needed in business. Our study provides a critical perspective both on how neoliberal governance operates in entrepreneurship education and on what kinds of entrepreneurial identities future higher education graduates should possess. We suggest that academics should take an active role in creating more inclusive narratives and identity-building models for academic entrepreneurship.

Change Management in Higher Education: A New Perspective.

Universities need to operate a transition from the common ‘traditional’ settings towards an education that contributes to a sustainable social change by preparing students to be change agents who care for others and for the well-being of society. We designed an interpretative qualitative approach using the unique case study of a Jesuit University, based on interviews with leaders of and participants to volunteering initiatives driven by that university. The objective of the study was to identify the drivers of change of the outreach model in higher education and analyze if the Jesuit way of doing things, or Jesuit tradition, is an effective tool to drive the change in universities. Five key drivers of change were identified (communication, participation, sharing, empathy and reflexivity), all in line with the characteristics of the Jesuit tradition. Both empathy and reflexivity are drivers of change, which were not cited in previous works on change management and may be considered as the study’s added value to the conceptual framework. The results of this study need to be confirmed on a larger sample of participants and would be enriched by a benchmarking work on Jesuit-led outreach bodies.

Development of Mobile Learning-Based Learning Model in Higher Education Using the Addie Method

Learning model is a series of meetings in the teaching and learning process that occurs between lecturers and students in college. Along with the development of information technology through mobile learning, the learning process also experiences a positive impact, namely by utilizing smartphone devices. The purpose of this study is: accelerate transformation and facilitate communication learning between lecturers and students. The method used in this study is ADDIE method. The results expected with the support of smartphone devices can improve the quality of students. So that lecturers and students can interact in the teaching and learning process without being constrained by space and time. The optimism of the successful implementation of this Mobile Learning system is very high because the facilities and atmosphere of various parties are very supportive coupled with the need to be a priority requirement for everyone in this case students or students.

Application of Computer Information Technology in the Reform of Law Classroom Teaching Method

In the context of the Internet, various information transmission methods are more convenient. The network is open and can share resources. Therefore, “Internet +” provides a new way of teaching in the field of education. In the process of law education in colleges and universities, teachers should make full use of the Internet to create a variety of teaching methods for students. Efficient use of information technology to promote continuous innovation and change in higher education models, creating a network and digital higher education system, laying the foundation for a harmonious society of learning at any time, anywhere, and everyone, and training innovative talent. The purpose of this article is to explore its application in the reform of law classroom teaching methods through computer information technology. This article establishes a legal resource database, creates a virtual legal classroom, and makes an electronic bulletin board to propose changes to legal education. It is concluded through experiments that under the teaching method of computer technology, students have improved significantly in all aspects of law. Under the traditional teaching method, students have only improved a small part in law study, and even declined in some aspects. Compared with traditional teaching methods, the effect of teaching methods under computer technology is relatively significant. In the former, it improved by 4.09 points on average, but the latter regressed by 4.02 points, and the former communicated a lot more than the latter. In terms of homework assignment, the latter overtimed about three times.

Higher Education and the School-Work Mismatch in an Evolving Labor Market

In relation to an evolving labor market, the main focus of this paper is to examine whether the traditional model of higher education is effectively matching graduate skills to labor market demand. In light of a growing student debt burden and proposals for significant expansions in higher education funding aid, this paper also assesses the orthodox view that a traditional college education is a human capital investment that yields a growing college wage premium. The paper reviews the existing literature on the school-work skills mismatch and concludes that there may be a need to rethink higher education policies to prepare future generations for an increasingly dynamic and evolving labor market.

Лев Петражицкий и аутодидактика в высшей школе

We considered the formation and development of autodidactics in the Russian higher school at the beginning of the 20th century during the reform of the educational process, which introduced a subject system of education instead of the previously existing course. We revealed the role of L.I. Petrazhitsky in the development and implementation of the concept of autodidactics. We paid special attention to the organization of the educational process in autonomous universities. In humanitarian education, the personalist-axiological model of higher education is most effective. The traditional axiology of education determined the goals and methods of knowing scientific truth, while immersing students in the process of scientific research contributes to the development of their creative personalities. The need to be adequate to the level of achievements of the evolution of science involves the constant updating of the didactic complex: goals, content, forms and methods of learning. However, the customer of educational services forms a quasi-university focused on obtaining socio-cultural skills supposedly useful for the consumer of educational services. Such a model leads to the transformation of the scientific axiology of higher education and focuses on the criteria of utility and competence, which requires a different qualification, a different intellectual potential. There is a conflict of ambitendent innovative processes: autonomy opposes the authoritarian trend in education, while the higher school is technologizing the educational process aimed at forming narrow specialists.

Higher education services market: new trends in sustainable development

The transfer of higher education to a distance format as a new trend has increased the relevance of research on the problems of assessing the quality of higher education services and its sustainable development in the post-pandemic period. The article proposes a methodological approach that includes the authors’ modified Higher Education PERFormance (HEdPERF) model and importance–performance analysis. Testing of the methodology for the Russian university showed its advantages that is a comprehensive assessment of the higher education service quality. The transition to a mixed model of higher education caused the need to improve the methodology. The authors proposed to include in the questionnaire the characteristics of the quality of distance learning: correspondence of goals and content of online technology, the level of online interaction of students, conformity assessment procedures and the stated competence, clarity of assessment criteria students the opportunity to track the progress in the development of the online course, quality learning materials, quality of technical support the online technology, ease of use etc.

Estrategias didácticas en un entorno universitario como apoyo a la educación presencial

This work presents research related to the learning strategies used in a university environment in face-to-face education, the strategies mentioned are the active master class, the case study, the debate, the game of roles and project-based learning. Methodology: A descriptive design was used, carrying out data collection through the "University Students Learning Strategy Assessment Questionnaire". Results: Students have enough learning strategies to achieve the objective of their university studies successfully. In addition, there is acceptance by students of the implementation of the various strategies in a face-to-face course, as it allows them to address the issues using the strategy that allows better learning. Conclusions: Given the process of applying the educational model in Higher Education, learning environments should be created that facilitate innovation and student participation in the teaching-learning process, considering both the component teaching as the human dimension. In in-person students, the results demonstrate better information storage skills.

DESIGNING INQUIRY-BASED EXPERTISE SHARING MODEL TO ENHANCE GRADUATE EMPLOYABILITY IN HIGHER EDUCATION INSTITUTIONS

This study aims to design Inquiry-Based Expertise Sharing (IBES) as a comprehensive active learning model in higher education, and then to examine its strength and challenges in enhancing graduate employability. This research was conducted by combination of qualitative and quantitative methods. There were two phases namely developing a pilot project and conducting experimental testing. In first phase, an initial comprehensive learning framework was developed by combining and integrating Jigsaw, Inquiry-Based Learning, and Knowledge Sharing as a framework named Inquiry-Based Expertise Sharing (IBES). In the second phase, the revised IBES was experimentally tested in the same course but different students using quasi-experiment method and the matching only pre-test post-test control group design. To examine the strength of IBES, main data was collected namely students’ achievement and perception. Students’ achievement was measured by the multiple choices questions sheet, while students’ perception data was gathered by the questionnaire sheet. The result shows that students’ achievement mean score in experimental group was 75.7 which is higher than control group that its mean score was 58.73. Students’ perception result showed that more than 70% students have positive responses toward the IBES in all aspects including curiosity, inquiry skills, teamwork attitudes, collaborations, interdependence, and communication skills. The challenges of IBES are the diversity of students’ background, the lack of curiosity, the lack of prior knowledge, the lack of confidence, and the lack of communication skills. Some recommendations for the effectiveness of implementation of IBES will be given.

Risk in work integrated learning: a stakeholder centric model for higher education

ABSTRACT Work Integrated Learning (WIL) increases the ‘work readiness’ of university graduates but it is a complex undertaking and involves numerous risks for the stakeholders involved. A systematic review of the literature published between 2012 and 2017 reveals that the discourses related to risk and WIL are quite limited with the perspectives of key stakeholders receiving little attention. To address these shortcomings, a stakeholder centric model is proposed that conceptualises risk as a network of potentially fragile relationships and interactions, centred on the student, and involving all key WIL stakeholders. This Stakeholder Interaction (SI) model provides a framework for the analysis of risk from the perspectives of each stakeholder in turn and as such, has the potential to inform the management of risk in WIL more broadly and address some gaps in academic discourse and practice.

Flipped Classroom Model – A Response to the Emerging Trends in the Teaching Learning Landscape

Flipped Classroom Model has emerged over the last two decades and its popularity is growing rapidly in the recent years. This study reviews and analyses the research on Flipped Classroom Model in higher education from a variety of aspects. The main aim of this study is to identify the factors that influence the popularity of Flipped Classroom Model and making it a worthwhile activity to implement. The study also examines the new trends and rapid transformation in the digital and education landscape and the associated changes in the current education system. A six-step process suggested by Cooper & Hedges (2011) is used to identify and synthesis the data required for this study. Findings from the study show positive influence of Flipped Classroom Model in higher education on different parameters including students’ academic achievement and their level of engagement. Further, this paper discusses the opportunities and challenges in designing and implementing Flipped Classroom Model deeply associated with our traditional higher education system.

The Model of E-Higher Education

The obligatory component and precondition for society development is improvement of higher education, which can ensure its mass accessible nature and decrease in education cost. The article shows the development of this field that fosters technological progress, which on the current stage can lead to a new way of education, i.e. the model of e-higher education. The principle feature of e-education is the absence of the university as a center training organization. University authorities in the field of training are delegated, first of all to the state foundation of e-training courses of higher education and to the methodological center that develops the procedure of obtaining different forms of higher education on the basis of mastering the prescribed programs of training courses by the student. The author came to the conclusion that passing over to the non-university model of education is connected with new risks both in the field of higher education organization and related spheres, as it could affect employment of university employees. Labour market tension is increasing due to the trend of combining educational and labour processes by today’s youth. Lower costs and higher productivity can win on the market, thus cheaper for society model of higher education would have higher chances of gaining a certain niche of education service market.

Probing the progress of the external dimension of the Bologna process

Purpose This paper aims to assess the “external dimension” goals of the Pan European Bologna reform, almost 19 years after its launch. The influences of the reform on higher education in Africa, Latin America and the Caribbean, and Asia-Pacific are investigated. The paper analyses the appeal of the 1999 Bologna Process (BP), which, arguably, symbolizes an effort to strengthen the hegemony of Western European education and influence, has for the first time gone beyond ex-colonial lines, including areas where Europe’s socio-political influence is not impactful. Design/methodology/approach This paper opted for an analytical review of the literature on the European higher education internationalization goals as stated in external dimension objectives of the Bologna Process reform. The literature search was complicated by the limited number of peer review articles focusing on the spread of the Bologna model beyond Europe. As a result, the inclusion criteria were flexible, and consideration was given to educational website reports/articles, dissertations, books, pamphlets, and internal EU/European Commission reports. Findings The findings of this review indicate that, in spite of significant challenges, the internationalization objectives of Bologna Process are gradually being met in Africa, Latin America and Asia. Most notable is that some countries that historically did not have a European colonial presence are embracing aspects of the Bologna reform. Almost 19 years after, the BP reform now has a significant external influence not only in the former Portuguese, Spanish, British and French colonies but also beyond. In spite of the overwhelming embrace of the BP model in Europe and outside of Europe, its implementation, everywhere, has faced some administrative, political, and economic challenges. Research limitations/implications The study examined the spread of the Bologna Process models beyond Europe and not its acceptability by stakeholders such as faculty and students outside Europe. Future research could examine the satisfaction rates among higher education stakeholders in regions and countries embracing the BP models. Practical implications The findings of this review indicate that the steady spread of the BP means that more countries and tertiary education institutions can explore opportunities aimed at developing more educational and socioeconomic partnership, including the exchange of knowledge, technology and resources. Originality/value While emphasizing the benefits and opportunities for cooperation, the paper identifies that the increasing internationalization trends influenced by the BP are leading to regional higher education cooperation in Asia, Latin America and Africa. Other higher education models around the world can learn from the marketing strategies of the BP aided by EU.

Social Entrepreneurship Learning Model in Higher Education using Social Network Analysis

Social Entrepreneurship aims to solve social problems and focus more on giving social impact on society. The academic programs of most universities tend to teach students to be employees instead of developing skills and competencies to try something new, particularly being involved in any entrepreneurship endeavours. Social entrepreneurship courses have been introduced in many universities to ensure the employability rate of fresh graduates while equipping the students with entrepreneurial capabilities that are essential for the graduates when they are immersed in the society. In order to decrease the unemployment rate, the government suggested that graduates should be involved in entrepreneurship activities. This paper contributes to the development of social entrepreneurship learning model in higher education. The constructs of this model are acquired from the extant literature reviews of the existing models in social entrepreneurship, analysis of the relationships of data and patterns in social entrepreneurship through Social Network Analysis (SNA) are discussed using the narrative approach. This approach is chosen to fully understand the concept of social entrepreneurship from enormous social media data. This social entrepreneurship learning model will help in creating, developing and sustaining a rising generation of social entrepreneurs whilst reducing fresh graduate’s unemployment rate and nurturing more skills to the students.

A flipped classroom model in higher education: a review of the evidence across disciplines

The recent movement to integrate the flipped classroom model into higher education has resulted in significant changes that affected both teaching and learning practices in different ways. After almost a decade of research on the flipped classroom model, different emergent outcomes have been reported in a domain specific context. To gain a comprehensive understanding of the flipped classroom implementation in a university context, a review of the literature on the use of flipped classroom in a university context was conducted. This study was guided by interpreting the previous research findings according to the domain of utilization, opportunities, challenges, and extensions to the conventional flipped classroom model. This study found that the utilization of flipped classroom in various disciplines is mainly advocated to promote students’ engagement, metacognition, attitude, performance, understanding, and achievement, as well as other learning outcomes. The key challenges of this method, shared across all disciplines, were devoted to the length of the video/digital materials and time required for instructors to prepare the learning materials and for students to master it. Recommendations for policy makers and other crucial insights for the future studies were highlighted.

Reclaiming the Elder Role of Educator in Higher Education for Alaska Native Elders

ABSTRACT Indigenous educational models in higher education that incorporate Elder wisdom, knowledge, and experience are supported by educators but often not well understood or implemented. This study provides an in-depth exploration of six Elders’ experiences serving as members of university instructor teams in a Rural Human Services university program. Results from individual interviews and a focus group with these Elders yielded important findings as to the positive benefits of this model for students, Elders, and university faculty. Importantly, Elders spoke to the transformation of the curriculum in a way that facilitates and bridges the integration of Indigenous knowledge and experiences with a Eurocentric curriculum.
