Benchmarking Australia and New Zealand Aviation Academic Research Output between 2017 and 2021

The purpose of this study was to achieve a better understanding of the boundaries of the aviation education discipline and academic composition as well as patterns of research output in tertiary aviation education in Australia and New Zealand. This study developed a framework to identify aviation academics in Australia and New Zealand and operationalized a definition for aviation research. Based on these boundaries, a database of aviation academics and associated peer-reviewed research publications over a 5-year period between 2017 and 2021. From the database, this study was able to identify staffing profiles of aviation academics as well as patterns of research output at different levels of seniority to include the ratio of research publications that were considered aviation and non-aviation. Additionally, based on the relevant research area represented by journals of publication, aviation research disciplines were inductively developed. The study found that research outputs increase across levels until Level E, at which publications drop sharply, and that non-aviation research output was present at all levels but notably higher at Level C and Level D. It also found a research output profile for each level for both aviation and non-aviation research that can support performance benchmarking. In addition, the study identified seven aviation research disciplines based on the research area of periodicals in which aviation research was published. Lastly, the study highlighted the significant challenge of distinguishing aviation research and identifying aviation academics as well as limitations for external quantifying aviation research performance.

Sharing the wealth: a proposal for discipline-based repositories of shared educational resources

ABSTRACT This essay proposes a novel approach to developing shared educational resources for higher education. Building on characteristics of successful moves to open access in scholarly publishing, it scopes a network of discipline-based cross-institutional hubs for finding, sharing and reusing educational outputs. As well as creating repositories of content, these pilot hubs would help to create structures and processes that allow scholars to share and reuse educational outputs with confidence. The essay considers the broader scholarly and regulatory environment within which these hubs would sit, possible mechanisms for developing the hubs, and the ways in which a richer shared educational environment might benefit academics and students. It acknowledges the tension between the aspirations of ‘open education’ and the more limited version of shared resources proposed, but suggests that establishing conventions and structures is an important stepping stone towards a genuinely open educational environment.

 Teachers are one of the important elements in developing the character of students, achieving school goals and improving the quality in the field of education. Teachers are professional educators whose primary task is to educate, teach, guide, direct, train, assess, and evaluate learners on early childhood education pathways of formal education, primary education, and secondary education. One of the semi-formal schools that is closely related to Buddhist religion is the Buddhist Sunday School (SMB). Buddhist Sunday School (SMB) is an educational forum that provides educational activities for students from early childhood to high school. The quality of the Buddhist Sunday School Teacher's Performance will largely determine the quality of the Buddhist Sunday School's educational outcomes. Thismeans that if the Performance of Buddhist Sunday School Teachers is low, it will have an impact on the quality of learning which will have implications for the quality of educational output. Previous surveys showed that the performance of SMB teachers in terms of quantity, quality, time utilization, effectiveness, and efficiency still needs to be improved because it is far from the quality as expected. This st udy aims to find out how motivation and work discipline individually and together can affect the quality of SMB teacher performance. This research was conducted by conducting a survey method and using a qualitative approach. The sample in this study was SMB teachers from 15 Buddhist Sunday Schools in Banten Province totaling 85 respondents. Sample selection is carried out using the purposive sampling type method while the collection is carried out through a questionnaire. The results showed that there was a positive and significant influence between the value of the work motivation variable and the performance of SMB teachers with a coefficient of ry1 = 0.889, a coefficient of determination (ry1) 2 = 0.654 (65.4%) with a regression equation of Y = 56.456 + 0.505X1, There is a positive and significant relationship between the Value of the Work Discipline variable and the value of the SMB teacher performance variable with a coefficient of ry2 = 0.678, a coefficient of determination (ry2) 2 = 0.346 (34.6%) with a regression equation Y = 72.287 + 0.416X 2 , There is a positive and significant relationship between the value of the variable of motivation for achievement and Work Discipline together with the value of the variable performance of SMB teachers with a coefficient of ry12 = 0.847, coefficient of determination (ry12) 2 = 0.718 (71.8%) with regression equation Y = 43.487 + 0.426 X1 + 0.200 X2.

The effect of ICT on schools’ efficiency: Empirical evidence on 23 European countries

In the last two decades, ICT use in schools grew exponentially. In this paper, the relationship between ICT and school’s efficiency and the mechanisms through which ICT can enhance schools’ productivity are investigated, using PISA 2018 data for about 5400 schools. Empirically, we analyze school’s efficiency in producing ICT-mediated instructional time as well as final educational output, by implementing a network Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) model. The analysis is complemented by a conditional DEA to account for the presence of possible external drivers of schools’ efficiency. Results show that the average schools’ efficiency in using ICT is relatively low, and that it is mainly driven by the ability of translating ICT-mediated instructional time into learning, rather than by the amount of ICT and human resources. This evidence is consistent across countries. By investigating the role of ICT in schools’ efficiency the paper provides insights to guide the transition of digital technology into learning.

Fighting Corruption in Developing Countries to Meet the Challenge of Human Capital Development: Evidence from Sub-Saharan African Countries

This paper provides both theoretical and empirical evidence on the need to consider institutions in human capital development in Sub-Saharan African (SSA) countries. In a model of human capital accumulation with public expenditure where we include a corruption parameter, it is found that when a bureaucrat or any other agent takes away part of the amount allocated to education or health, he reduces the quantity and quality of public services. Moreover, an estimation with the generalized moment method in system on panel data of 35 countries covering the period 1996–2018, the results show on the one hand that corruption manages to reduce the output of education and the average duration of studies and life expectancy of citizens through its negative effect on public spending in the education and health sector. On the other hand, corruption has a direct and negative impact on the performance of education. Indeed, it creates a lack of motivation in learning and in plans to pursue higher education because the return is very low, as is access to health and education services. In addition, corruption also distorts the allocation of public expenditure in favor of military, transport, mining, energy, and fuel expenditure as opposed to health and education expenditure. The effectiveness of governments in combating corruption is fundamental to human capital accumulation in Sub-Saharan African countries.

Creating stories of educational change in and for geography: what can we learn from Bolivia and Peru?

ABSTRACT This article will explore the potential for embedding education outputs within contemporary geographical scholarship to provide a disciplinary resource for school teachers’ curriculum thinking and pathways to impact for academic geographers. In particular, the article will draw upon two projects to show the empirical depth that can be achieved by developing resources that give teachers and students insight into the particularities of places (in this case Bolivia and Peru) in relation to sustainable development agendas via a focus on the co-production of geographical knowledge. Through engaging with research pursued by geographers, this article sheds light on the relationship between environmental justice and sustainable development, which can play an important role in shaping geography teachers’ curricular decision-making. It also recasts expertise where Indigenous leaders and others with first-hand experience of their local environment are at the forefront of complex decisions and conflicts to determine trajectories of sustainability.
