Demand for and training of Chinese translators in the context of the �One Belt, One Road� initiative

Relevance. The need to investigate the specifics of Chinese translator training within the framework of the global programme �One Belt, One Road� is primarily conditioned by the constant changes in various aspects, particularly in structural, semantic, and artistic aspects. Purpose. The purpose of this study was to investigate the global initiative �One Belt, One Road� in the context of training professional human resources to perform Chinese language translations. Methodology. This study analysed materials available on the websites of several higher education institutions. The analysis focused on specific parameters such as the distinct features of training students in Chinese studies, the education of translators working with Chinese, and the principles, methods, and techniques used in teaching the Chinese language. Results. Analyses of translator training have identified key skills for students: parallel language and culture study, adherence to translation norms like business etiquette, and mastery of technical translation tools. In Kyrgyz universities, methods include verbal (lectures, discussions), visual (audio and video materials), and practical (creative works, exhibitions, quizzes, conferences). For Chinese translators under the �One Belt, One Road� initiative, training spans multiple linguistic levels: phonetic (phrases, accents), grammatical (categories, meanings), lexical (vocabulary related to the initiative and various fields), syntactic (word order, links), and stylistic (business etiquette, unique vocabulary). Conclusions. The study found that the �One Belt, One Road� initiative's language policy focuses on planning Chinese language status, foreign languages, language structure, educational language use, and language services. The key challenges are the shortage of skilled professionals, intergovernmental cooperation, infrastructure standards, financial integration, and cultural exchange. In the future, this study can be used to develop technical improvements in Kyrgyz-Chinese translation, to improve the training of Chinese specialists within the framework of the global initiative �One Belt, One Road�. Keywords: lingua franca; linguistic levels; linguistic policy; linguistic parameters; terminological units

The discursive construction of internationalisation in Philippine Catholic university websites

This study examines how the growing priority for internationalisation is constructed in Philippine Catholic universities through a discourse analysis of institutional websites. School websites have increased relevance in the current global education milieu, where internet connectivity is an important means to communicate with current and potential teachers, students, and institutional partners. Specifically, I explore what and how notions of internationalisation are expressed in websites of higher education institutions (HEIs). This qualitative research offers the novelty of focusing on the case of top Catholic HEIs in the Philippines. Caught up in the global pressure to internationalise and the dictum and desire to preserve their religious identity, Catholic HEIs represent a cohort with nuanced practices and ideological struggles related to tensions in global, institutional, and religious priorities. The findings have implications for Catholic HEIs across the globe as they compete for higher world rankings and participate in internationalisation.

Autonomy Governance Transformation in the Higher Education Institutions Towards the Typical Models in Vietnam

Based on existing studies on university autonomy, particularly university autonomy in Vietnam, along with the examination of legal documents about the higher education system in Vietnam, and the findings from field surveys and surveys conducted on various higher education institution websites, this article aims to elucidate the autonomy model of higher education institutions. In doing so, it highlights the current state of autonomy in Vietnamese higher education. It identifies the dimensions missing from previous studies concerning university owners, both at the institutional and practical levels. The article outlines five major autonomy models for higher education institutions, which are formed by a system of mechanisms and policies in higher education. For each of these models, the research considers, analyzes, and evaluates the level of autonomy in terms of decision-making rights and self-responsibility across three fundamental areas of the university: organizational and personnel autonomy, academic autonomy, and autonomy in finance and facilities.

Методические основы оценки качества сайтов образовательных организаций (на примере Владивостокского государственного университета)

Currently, higher education institutions are focused on promoting their image on the Internet in order to occupy a certain niche there for presenting information about themselves. Thanks to the possibilities of the information Internet environment, universities contribute to improving the quality of the educational process. An important aspect in the formation of competitive advantages over other educational institutions is the quality of educational web resources. The distribution of scientific and educational streams is regulated by regulatory requirements that have a huge impact on the formation of the quality of websites of higher educational institutions. The important role of the monitoring process of assessing the quality of educational institutions' websites for the formation of recommendations based on the evaluation results according to the proposed methodology is revealed. The methodology is based on the theory of stakeholders, where groups of interested persons are considered by the fact of the existence of the studied object, indirectly or directly influencing it. A nomenclature of quality indicators has been developed based on the allocation of important criteria for each group, in this work these are students, parents, applicants and employees. The identification of indicators and values of their satisfaction serves as a foundation for the subsequent assessment of the quality of university websites according to the proposed methodology. The methodology includes several stages that accurately track all indicators during its use. The verification of the quality assessment algorithm was carried out on the example of the website of the Vladivostok State University. The data obtained are systematized and calculated according to the proposed formula, taking into account all interested groups. The results are of practical interest for a systematic assessment of the quality of educational institutions' websites and can be offered for use.

AN ANALYSIS OF THE IMPLEMENTATION OF ACCESSIBILITY TOOLS ON WEBSITES

The websites of higher education institutions, due to the fact that they are addressed to multiple stakeholder groups, not only need to have an appropriately designed information structure but must also be useful. Additionally, in the case of public universities, their services are expected to be accessible to the widest possible audience, especially for people with disabilities. The accessibility tools used on websites should be quickly located, easily identifiable and user-friendly. So far, no standards have been developed regarding these issues, and therefore, there are various solutions on the web. The objective of this study is to analyze various implementations of accessibility tools on university websites in terms of their location, form of presentation and ways that enable access to them. A study was conducted in which web interfaces were evaluated with the participation of users. The experiment consisted of two parts: the first one used the eye tracking technique, whereas in the second one, a survey was conducted. The research material was prototypes of websites from four different universities. Each website had two versions differing in implementation of accessibility tools. In the study, 35 participants were divided into two groups of people. Each group was shown one of the two sets of website prototypes and the users were tasked with finding and activating a specific accessibility tool. After exploring the websites, each participant completed a questionnaire that pertained to their opinions regarding aspects such as appearance, placement and a way to access tools dedicated to people with disabilities. The obtained data, processed to the form of heatmaps and fixation maps, were subjected to a qualitative analysis. The survey results and eye tracking data were analyzed quantitatively. On the basis of performed analyzes it can be concluded that the following factors have an impact on the reduction in efficiency and productivity of users: placement of accessibility tools on university websites in a place other than the upper right corner, an indirect access to these tools or their non-standard appearance.

TRENDS OF TEACHER TRAINING TO THE IMPLEMENTATION OF TRAUMA-INFORMED EDUCATION: EXPERIENCE OF DEVELOPED COUNTRIES

The article is a comparative education study of the peculiarities of teacher training for implementing a trauma-informed approach. The relevance of the topic is stipulated by the contradiction between the social demand for training future teachers to work with children who have experienced trauma and the development of such programmes by Ukrainian higher education institutions. The analysis of previous studies shows that the issue of preparing teachers to implement the tasks of a trauma-informed approach has been considered in the context of qualitative and quantitative research by foreign scholars. However, there is no analysis of the structures of professional training curricula for future teachers. Given this, the author aims to identify trends in such training based on the analysis of teacher training programmes and outline ways to implement promising practices in Ukraine. In the article, the results are obtained using the qualitative comparative research methodology. The research data was obtained by analysing the websites of higher education institutions and educational curricula aimed at preparing teachers to implement a trauma-informed approach. The results of the study are structured at the organisational and content levels. At the organisational level, the author identifies a trend towards micro-qualifications and distance learning. At the content level, the author identifies a trend towards the development of programmes for a wide range of specialists and developing integrated training courses centred around the trauma-informed approach. Among the prospects for the implementation of the studied foreign experience, the author identifies the development of both individual modules and individual teacher training programmes for the implementation of the trauma-informed approach.
