Bridging Theory and Practice in Private Higher Education: Pedagogical Innovations for the Digital Age

With the application of big data in the information age, the popularization of artificial intelligence and the coming of the network society, the traditional university education model has been severely impacted and challenged. It is an inevitable trend for higher education to adapt to the new social development reality and make corresponding adjustment and reform. Traditional university education pays attention to the imparts of theoretical knowledge and the cultivation of practical ability, but in the information age, students can get rich information and knowledge through the Internet, thus weakening the monopoly of traditional education. In addition, the popularity of artificial intelligence technology also means that some traditional teaching activities can be replaced by automation and intelligence, and the value chain of traditional education has been reshaped. The rise of the network society has also posed new challenges to the traditional university education model. The network society is characterized by a high degree of information sharing and exchange, and students can access various online educational resources and learning opportunities through the network platform. Therefore, traditional university education needs to find a new positioning and role, pay more attention to cultivating innovative ability, practical ability and teamwork ability, and provide students with more competitive comprehensive ability. Faced with these challenges, higher education must make corresponding adjustments and changes. The article carries out relevant research and puts forward specific countermeasures, mainly to update the educational concept, change the educational mode, and focus on cultivating students’ innovative thinking and problem-solving ability. It is necessary to develop diversified educational resources, meet social needs, strengthen cooperation with industries and enterprises, and provide professional education that matches market demand. At the same time, it is also necessary to actively develop online and distance education, make full use of online platforms and technological means, and provide flexible and diverse learning opportunities.

Миссия университета как ответ на вызовы времени

This article discusses topical issues of the formation and transformation of the university’s mission in accordance with the needs of society in different historical epochs. It is shown that the main components of the university’s mission were and remain education, scientific research and service to society, to which other concepts were added at different times in accordance with public requests. It is noted that in the twentieth century the mission of the university was formed under the influence of significant conceptual changes in the social role of higher education associated with the transition from an elite model of university education to a mass one. It was aimed at meeting the needs of industry, producing humanitarian knowledge for the development of culture, intelligence and spirituality. It is shown that the mission of a modern university is transformed in accordance with the needs of a global society with a market economy by adding a number of other components related to economic, social and globalization factors to its classical components. It is emphasized that in the current realities, in connection with the conduct of a special military operation, the main task of university education is not only to convey information to students, but also to teach them how to work with it using modern scientific methods. The needs of modern Russian society encourage universities, in addition to scientific and educational, to fulfill a social mission.

Современное университетское образование: эклектический хаос и конфликт ценностей

The article provides a theoretical analysis of the features of the liberal model of university education in the process of its formation, starting from the liberal education of ancient Greece and ending with the British model of Oxbridge. The close relationship between the liberal model of education and the social elite lifestyle is shown. Definitions of the concepts “an intellectual” and “intellectual culture” are given. It is shown what characteristics of the liberal model make it an institution of culture and science and a factor of cultural and scientific leadership. It is substantiated that the bridging of the gap between classical university education and vocational education in the middle of the 20th century led to an eclectic mix of university and professional education paradigms.

Lessons from zoom-university: Post-secondary student consequences and coping during the COVID-19 pandemic-A focus group study.

The COVID-19 pandemic dramatically altered the model of university education. However, the most salient challenges associated with online learning, how university students are coping with these challenges, and the impact these changes have had on students' communities of learning remain relatively unexplored. Changes to the learning environment have also disrupted existing communities of learning for both lower and upper-year students. Hence, the purpose of our study was to explore how: (1) academic and personal/interpersonal challenges as a result of COVID-19; (2) formal and informal strategies used to cope with these academic and non-academic challenges; (3) and services or resources provided by the institution, if any, affected students' communities of learning. Six focus groups of 5-6 students were conducted, with two focus groups specifically dedicated to upper and lower year students. Questions related to academic and interpersonal challenges, formal and informal coping strategies, and access to/use of university services/resources were posed. Common challenges included poor accommodation from professors and administrators; burnout from little separation school and personal life; lack of support for students transitioning out of university; and difficulties forming and maintaining social networks. These findings suggest the importance of fostering communities of learning informally and formally at universities beyond the pandemic context.

EFICACIA DEL PROGRAMA DE TUTORIAS EN MODALIDAD A DISTANCIA EN EL NIVEL DE EDUCACIÓN SUPERIOR EN UNA UNIVERSIDADMEXICANA

Tutoring consists of a mediation or facilitation work between the teacher, the students and the contents of the subjects, they integrate the academic actions oriented so that the students, in higher education, can face their adaptation to the educational system in distance mode and achieve the learning objectives. The general objective of this research is to analyze the effectiveness of the implementation of distance education strategies in university programs, in the scope of students who receive attention in the tutoring program at a University of Mexico. The research is applied, exploratory in depth, quantitative, with a non-experimental, longitudinal design. After reviewing the theoretical state of the art on tutoring and experiences in higher education in the distance modality, the results of two higher education programs were analyzed through descriptive statistics. The results show that the effectiveness of the tutorial program in the study programs analyzed is greater and that it increases as the elements of the tutorial model are adapted to the conditions of online communication. Even when being at a distance implies new challenges for tutoring programs in the university education model, the adoption of technological communication tools is much faster and accepted by the student users, who are the beneficiaries of the tutoring programs.

Массовизация и профессионализация университетов в середине XX века: социально-культурные последствия

The article analyzes the socio-cultural consequences of massovization and professionalization universities processes launched in the middle of the 20th century under the influence of the idea of profitability of education. It is giving some rationales for understanding why these processes disadvantages have become the decline in the value and prestige of intellectual labour (including a scientific one), which was shifted to the shoulders of ordinary people, whereas previously, intellectual labour and creativity were mainly the duties of wealthy people and, in general, social elites. It is concluded that as a result of the massification and professionalization of universities, a trend has been formed for the commercialization of higher education, which destroys the traditional models of university education.

Calculating university education model based on finite element fractional differential equations and macro-control analysis

Abstract Firstly, based on the charging theory of ‘education cost-sharing,’ under appropriate assumptions, two basic differential equation models are proposed to describe the problem of college education charges; secondly, through qualitative analysis of the basic model, it is concluded that colleges and universities maintain or impose several conditions for stabilising its education fees; finally, through the analysis of two basic models in three unique models under three situations, some new conclusions and suggestions on the macro-control of college education fees and enrolment scale are given. Also, three extended differential equation models are proposed.

Soft Skills of American University Teachers: Self-Concept

Today, soft skills (transversal competencies) are increasingly appreciated by employers as essential skills for professional success. Likewise, these competencies are necessary to be able to operate as individuals in today’s society. In view of this situation, in the future post-COVID-19 educational model it is necessary to design training programs that promote both hard skills (specific competencies) and soft skills. This fact brings to the table the need for university teachers to have an optimal level of soft skills so that their students can acquire them. Given this situation, this paper aims to analyze the degree of acquisition of this type of competencies in American university teachers from different regions: (i) North America; (ii) Central America, and (iii) Southern Cone. To achieve this objective, it has been necessary to develop a questionnaire on the self-concept of soft skills, based on several variables: (i) gender, (ii) age range, (iii) geographic area, (iv) area of knowledge, (v) years of teaching experience, and (vi) university tenure (public-private). The questionnaire developed was based on the soft skills included in the Bochum Inventory of Personality and Competences (BIP). Results, obtained by descriptive and inferential statistical analysis of the means and deviations of the data collected from a sample of 473 participants, reflect that, in general, the American university teachers have a high self-concept about their degree of soft skills development. Although results show significant differences depending on each variable considered in this study, it can be suggested that the American university teachers are prepared to face a mixed university educational model, which promotes equally both hard skills and soft skills.

Гумбольдт, натурфилософия и университет как универсум

The article analyzes the scientific career of Alexander von Humboldt. The scien­tist researched the junction of science and philosophy, set up experiments to study organic life, testing his theory of “life force”. The result of his work was the essay “On irritated muscle and nerve fiber”. The philosophical essay “Life-Force, or the Genius of Rhodes” reveals Humboldt's literary talent. In this essay, in literary form, the problem of “life force” and understanding the essence of life was raised. And it’s not by chance, since Humboldt’s texts have a complete aes­thetic character, which allowed him as a scientist to capture life itself as the phe­nomena of nature. Being and nature, according to the scientist, are not divided into separate parts and their separation is purely objective, while nature itself is one unit. This understanding of the integrity of nature (including humans) is also at the heart of the project of the model of university education, which he and his brother Wilhelm von Humboldt founded in Berlin and whose main principle was the unity of basic research and teaching. Subsequently, such an attitude allowed universities to simultaneously become scientific centers of their country, per­forming, among other things, state tasks. The article notes that Humboldt’s sci­entific research was highly appreciated not only by his contemporaries philoso­phers but also by writers, such as Goethe and Schiller.

Особливості професійної підготовки вчителів інтегрованого навчання у вчительських колегіумах Польщі

The article, based on a systematic analysis of the legal framework on pedagogical education and the practice of training teacher candidates (pre-service teachers) for the implementation of integrated education in grades 1–3 of primary school in Poland, highlights the role and place of teacher preparation collegiums in preparing educators to solve this socio-pedagogical problem between the 90-th of the 20th and early 21st century. The purpose and tasks of training teacher candidates for integrated teaching in full-time vocational education institutions have been analyzed in accordance with the social requirements and challenges of the modern labor market. The expediency of teacher training in two specialties simultaneously has been revealed - the combination of the specialty of an integrated teacher with the specialties of a preschool teacher, a music teacher, foreign language teacher, and a speech therapist. It has been found out that this approach expands employability and increases the effectiveness of professional and pedagogical activities. The importance of psychological and pedagogical disciplines and field-based teaching practice for the formation of a teacher candidate’s mastery in integrated teaching in grades 1–3 has been substantiated. It has been proved that teacher preparation collegiums have developed original concepts of education that are significantly different from the theoretical and philosophical model of university education, meet the requirements of the labor market and provide their graduates with prospects in professional and pedagogical activities in the field of integrated primary education.

Artifact Biography: A Variable Colour Mixer

Among the artifacts representing early research in experimental psychology at the University of Toronto is a precisely machined steel instrument of German manufacture. The provenance of this variable colour mixer opens onto a largely-forgotten history of research into colour perception that depended heavily on mechanical instruments of the spinning-wheel type. Like the broader practices and principles of experimental psychology, these instruments were widely disseminated during a period in which the German research-based model of university education was widely admired. For most of its early history at the University of Toronto, the experimental laboratory was run by a German, August Kirschmann (1860-1932), who led investigations into the psychological basis for aesthetic judgement, especially as it concerned colour perception. Kirschmann’s hostility to existing art criticism reflected his belief that experimental psychology could provide a coherent foundation to the language of aesthetics.
