EFFECT OF EDUCATION, FAMILY, GENDER AND GENERATIONS ON THE ENTREPRENEURIAL INTENTION

Entrepreneurship is one of the critical factors in improving economic and social development. The need for the creation of employment and national wealth is driven mainly by entrepreneurship. Therefore, there is a need to create new ventures, which requires entrepreneurial intention. Factors such as gender, education, personal traits, and role models affect entrepreneurial intention. Most of the studies on entrepreneurial intention take one of those factors' roles on intention. This study aims to find the role of gender, education, family, and generations on entrepreneurial intention and its sub-factors to fill the current literature gap. In the study, a model was constructed and evaluated experimentally on a sample of 663 university students in Türkiye. The sub-factors of entrepreneurial intention were determined using factor analysis, and the association between gender, education, parental status, and generations, as well as entrepreneurial intention, was analyzed using Mann-Whitney U and Kruskal Wallis tests. Firstly, contrary to general literature results, our analysis shows no evidence that gender influences entrepreneurial intention in general, but there is a difference in a sub-factor (desire for success) in favour of females. Secondly, it is seen that there is a statistically significant difference in favour of those who receive entrepreneurship education in terms of general entrepreneur intention, but only innovativeness and tolerance for uncertainty on sub-factors. Thirdly, there is no statistically significant distinction between parental status, generation, and entrepreneurial intent. In terms of self-confidence, creativity, and drive for achievement, however, there is a statistically significant difference in favour of those who are parents based on the parental status of the participants. Finally, it has been determined that students in Türkiye have a high level of entrepreneurial intention.

Constructing Inclusive Citizenship: Fundamental, Cultural and Religious Rights Narratives in History Textbooks Taught in Elite Schools in Pakistan

Given the crucial role of history education in shaping civic identity, this study investigates citizenship rights perspectives constructed in the history textbooks of elite private schools in Pakistan. Following Gagnon and Pagé’s analytical model, this study adopts a qualitative content analysis to probe fundamental rights, cultural rights, religious rights, and related concepts within textbooks. The findings highlight problematic silences, selective narratives, and externally imposed frameworks on rights issues. Deterministic and politically skewed historical accounts impede the development of critical faculties and introspection, which are essential for engaged democratic citizenship. This study has notable implications for reforming unbalanced curricula and decolonizing history teaching toward the objectives of citizenship education, such as educating future citizens to contribute to a peaceful, just, inclusive, and democratic society in Pakistan. The paper not only presents its findings but also looks at what the findings entail for the development of inclusive citizenship education.

Blind spots in medical education – International perspectives

Background All individuals and groups have blind spots that can create problems if unaddressed. The goal of this study was to examine blind spots in medical education from international perspectives. Methods From December 2022 to March 2023, we distributed an electronic survey through international networks of medical students, postgraduate trainees, and medical educators. Respondents named blind spots affecting their medical education system and then rated nine blind spot domains from a study of U.S. medical education along five-point Likert-type scales (1 = much less attention needed; 5 = much more attention needed). We tested for differences between blind spot ratings by respondent groups. We also analyzed the blind spots that respondents identified to determine those not previously described and performed content analysis on open-ended responses about blind spot domains. Results There were 356 respondents from 88 countries, including 127 (44%) educators, 80 (28%) medical students, and 33 (11%) postgraduate trainees. At least 80% of respondents rated each blind spot domain as needing ‘more’ or ‘much more’ attention; the highest was 88% for ‘Patient perspectives and voices that are not heard, valued, or understood.’ In analyses by gender, role in medical education, World Bank country income level, and region, a mean difference of 0.5 was seen in only five of the possible 279 statistical comparisons. Of 885 blind spots documented, new blind spot areas related to issues that crossed national boundaries (e.g. international standards) and the sufficiency of resources to support medical education. Comments about the nine blind spot domains illustrated that cultural, health system, and governmental elements influenced how blind spots are manifested across different settings. Discussion There may be general agreement throughout the world about blind spots in medical education that deserve more attention. This could establish a basis for coordinated international effort to allocate resources and tailor interventions that advance medical education.

Empowering Education: Addressing Vaccination Hesitancy in The Covid-19 Era

The COVID-19 pandemic started in 2019 with the emergence of a new coronavirus and has greatly affected societies worldwide. It has led to an increase in mortality rates, disturbed pre-existing health conditions, disrupted educational systems, and reduced global workforce productivity and production. The scientific community has expedited vaccine development to combat the pandemic. However, the emergence of various vaccines has paradoxically resulted in a decline in public confidence, contributing to anti-vaccine sentiments. This study explores the pivotal role of education in fortifying vaccination rates and seeks to identify effective strategies to address hesitancy and strengthen public health measures. This research uses the two-stage least squares (2SLS) methodology to analyze the “Learning Loss Covid-19” cross-sectional dataset, which the World Bank published on January 4, 2023. The investigation focuses on the relationship between “Vaccination rate (per person)” and “Year of Education” across 41 countries. The empirical findings show that education has a significant impact on vaccination rates. An increase of one year in educational attainment leads to an approximate 14% increase in doses administered per person and a substantial 23% surge in the average dosage across nations. Therefore, education plays a crucial role in fortifying and elevating vaccination rates, demonstrating its significance as a potent tool in global public health endeavours.

Role of labor market dynamics in influencing global female labor force participation

PurposeThe global non-attainment of the Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 5 indicates the issue of rising gender inequality. Educated women shying away from the labor force is worsening it. The labor market dynamics might shape the female labor force participation (FLFP). The present study recommends a policy framework by analyzing this dynamism across 125 countries over 1990–2020.Design/methodology/approachThe Two-step System Generalized Method of Moments is used to address endogeneity bias. Dynamism in policy environment is captured by relaxing the Ceteris Paribus condition in the empirical model.FindingsResults show that the moderation of labor market factors has increased with the attainment of Secondary and Tertiary Education. Results also highlight that these factors promote FLFP through prospective opportunities but also hinder female participation through employer’s discrimination despite educational attainment.Originality/valueStudies have examined the role of education on FLFP. However, prior research has not investigated the role of labor market factors in influencing the impact of education on FLFP. The consideration of these factors will help in addressing the global policy lacuna by recommending a policy framework for enhancing FLFP through internalization of the externalities exerted by the labor market factors, and thereby, help the countries attaining the SDG 5 objectives.

Pre-service Teachers' Perspectives on the Integration of Technology in Future Education: Between English Education and Ethics Education Majors

The current study aimed to investigate the perceptions of pre-service teachers regarding the integration of advanced technologies into future education and to examine whether these perceptions differ significantly based on the pre-service teachers' academic majors. The participants consisted of 110 pre-service teachers majoring in Ethics education and English education at a university in Korea's Gyeongsang Province. A questionnaire comprising 59 items was administered, addressing aspects such as interest in the utilization of advanced technologies, resistance to their use, concerns about their application, and expectations for the future of education over the next decade. Statistical analyses, including a paired t-test, an independent <i>t</i>-test, frequency analysis, and analysis of variance, were employed to examine differences based on variables of gender and major. </br>The study revealed statistically significant disparities in the perceptions of pre-service teachers from distinct majors, particularly between English education majors and ethics education majors, concerning the incorporation of advanced technologies in education. English education majors demonstrated notably high awareness, particularly in the domain of neural machine translation. Conversely, ethics education majors demonstrated a lower inclination to embrace the use of advanced technologies in their instructional practices. Additionally, ethics education majors expressed the belief that the role of teachers would become more pivotal in classes integrating these technologies. Considering these research outcomes, it becomes evident that future education for pre-service teachers should underscore comprehensive training in both digital technology education and the development of competencies in areas where artificial intelligence cannot replace the role of educators.

To Analyze the Effects of Teacher’s Attitude and Behaviors on the Academic Achievement of Secondary School Students

The purpose of the study was to determine how positive teaching attitudes affected students' academic performance. The behaviors that teachers exhibit in their professional lives are a reflection of their attitudes. Since they consider themselves to be a part of the teaching community, their opinions of other teachers are really a reflection of themselves. Twenty teachers from four private schools in Karachi completed a questionnaire that was used to record their reflections on behavior. The literature reviewed in research papers and books on the subject, which discussed how students pick favorite teachers and how this can affect students' academic performance, served as the primary inspiration for these questions. Thirty items made up the questionnaire, which asked about teachers' fairness, compassion, inspiration, creativity, verbal appreciation, preparedness, sense of humor, confidence, preparedness, sense of belonging, punctuality, positivity, forgiveness, sharing responsibility, sensitivity, and nurturing creativity in their students. Students were asked to fill out a questionnaire with examples of both positive and negative attitudes and behaviors from their secondary school teachers. They were also asked to explain how these examples affected their performance and personality development. The research's most significant findings demonstrated that students' personalities and life outcomes are positively impacted by teachers' positive attitudes. These results lead to a discussion of teachers' roles in lifespan education, which go beyond merely transforming knowledge. Key words: , , ,
