WRITING AS AN INVESTMENT TO FULFILL AN INCREASE IN THE FUNCTIONAL POSITION OF LECTURER

Scientific writing has an essential role in supporting the improvement of lecturers' functional positions, where scientific publications are seen as a form of strategic investment that can encourage academic career development. Through publications, lecturers not only share their research results and intellectual ideas, but also increase their competence, credibility, and professional recognition in the world of higher education. This study aims to analyze scientific writing as a long-term investment that plays a role in fulfilling the requirements for lecturers' functional promotion, and to assess the impact of writing productivity on institutional recognition. Using qualitative methods, this study identifies motivational factors, challenges, and benefits obtained by lecturers through scientific writing and publication activities. The results of the analysis show that scientific writing productivity significantly contributes to the process of functional promotion, both through increasing the required credit score, as well as through wider recognition of lecturers' scientific contributions in the academic sphere. Thus, scientific writing and publication skills need serious attention in lecturer development programs, so that they can support the improvement of professional performance and strengthen the academic position of lecturers in higher education. Continuous efforts in improving scientific writing skills are seen as crucial as a form of investment for the future of lecturers' academic careers, which in turn can contribute to improving the quality of higher education in Indonesia.

La filosofía de la ciencia orientadora de la investigación y producción científica en la educación superior peruana.

Abstract Higher education in Peru; the work theorizes, reflects and argues heuristically the performance or role of the philosophy of science in scientific research within the framework of Peruvian, Latin American and world higher education. In generic terms, the philosophical educational action at the higher level is very important, since it is an essential and very necessary element; among others, for the generation of knowledge within the research process and specifically in teaching-learning the methodology of research at university level. The classification of formal, factual and applied sciences does not reflect philosophically on the generation of scientific knowledge, methodology, development and quality of the finished product. Finally, it does not establish knowledge and application of the relevant philosophy, for the scientific method, having largely distinguishable limitations in the scientific production of Peruvian universities, reason why it is not published in scientific journals such as Scopus, Web of Sciene and Sciel.

Decolonizing English in Higher Education: Global Englishes and TESOL as Opportunities or Barriers (SI on Global Englishes and TESOL)

AbstractEnglish is core to HE (higher education) globally, with both HE and English seen as pathways to success for students. Yet, access to English is unequal and colonial ideologies associate English with Anglophone settings. Much of the research on English in HE has focused on elite institutions and students, while the majority of the world's HE students remain comparatively under‐researched. This paper reports on a mixed‐methods study of TESOL in five linguistically and socioculturally diverse HE settings in Colombia, Mexico, Iraq, Thailand, and Vietnam. The aims were to explore the roles and perceptions of English, TESOL, and other languages in policy and practice, (including multilingualism and Global Englishes) and how these related to processes of dis/empowerment and de/colonialization of HE. We sought to uncover the extent to which TESOL and English allowed or restricted access to opportunities of empowerment for different groups of students on their way to and through HE, and how English intersected with a range of dimensions of potential marginalization or privilege, particularly socioeconomic status, ethnicity, and rurality. We present findings from students through a questionnaire (n = 1820) and interviews with students, teachers, and administrators at each of the sites (n = 150).

Trials and tribulations of a life in education consultancy

This short note outlines some of the rewards and frustrations that have arisen during my 40 years as a consultant in education – mainly, but not entirely, in higher education. It is a personal picture, with no pretence to be an academic paper. It is illustrated by references based on my own experience rather than references to the work of others. The note considers consultancy projects in two parts: first, the set up stage before the work really begins, and then the analysis stage. A primary problem in the set up stage is to determine with true clarity who is actually the ‘client’ for the work and who is the ‘decision maker’ about it. This is often no easy task and the answer is rarely simple – especially for projects that are commissioned and paid for by one party, but with the claimed intention being that they are for the benefit of another. During the work, conflicts of objectives can appear that were not apparent at the start, sometimes between the parties, sometimes within them. Difficulties can also arise from being a ‘foreign’ consultant, in terms of needing to understand – and to take into account, the local culture and ways of doing things – not least, interpretations of corruption. Sometimes an attempt is made to ‘import’ a solution developed for one country into another, which in my view is a disgrace. A very rewarding ‘result’ for any consultancy work is for the ‘client’ to think that the answer developed is ‘obvious’. The note also reflects on the frequent uselessness of so-called ‘hard data’. The paper concludes by drawing on the 40 years to say a few brief words about the world of higher education and the importance of leadership both by and within universities. This is followed by four examples of issues in education more generally which, in my view, have not yet been satisfactorily resolved. It concludes with a brief note on my views as to whether it was all worth it. It was!

Contrastive Analysis of American and Chinese University Websites—A Case Study of Tsinghua and Harvard University

With the improvement of China’s national strength, more and more institutions of higher learning begin to seek international development, and the willingness of overseas institutions of higher learning to conduct international exchanges and cooperation with Chinese institutions of higher learning is also increasing. In the era of increasingly fierce competition in the world of higher education, colleges and universities are trying to seek higher level of cooperation institutions, which can not only train their students into more international talents, but also improve their own international image. For this reason, many Chinese colleges and universities’ web pages are made in both Chinese and English, and the English profile of the university plays an important role in providing foreign scholars and students with a better understanding of the university. In recent years, the number of Chinese students who go aboard for further study has risen sharply, however, the number of students coming to China to study grow slowly, one of the reasons is that the publicity of Chinese colleges and universities foreign propaganda is not enough, or the web site home page introduction in English does not accord with international friends of reading and thinking habit, which leads to the lack of the understanding of foreign students in Chinese universities, and then they don’t come to study in China.By comparing the differences between the website of Harvard University in the United States and the English version of the website of Tsinghua University in China, this thesis makes a comparative analysis of the differences between English and Chinese languages, hoping to give an in-depth thought on the comparative study of English and Chinese languages and the English translation of the websites of Chinese universities.

A systematic Literature Review of Internet of Things for Higher Education: Architecture and Implementation

The objectives of this paper are to analyze the implementation and architecture of the Internet of Things (IoT) from previous studies, specifically in the world of higher education; offer recommendations for future research, as well as strengthen the theory of IoT architecture that already exists in higher education. This study employed a systematic literature review (SLR) with data collection utilizing Funnel Diagrams to select articles based on their relevance to the research question. The three publisher databases (Scopus, Emerald, and EBSCO) and index journals were utilized in the search for articles. A total of 1,200 articles were gathered from these three sources, with distributions of up to 800 in Scopus, 150 in Emerald, and 250 in EBSCO. The findings demonstrate that the existing IoT architecture has a more sophisticated model than the fundamental idea, which has three layers, implying that using IoT in education may have a significant influence on user convenience. This is due to the increasingly complicated requirements of higher education's many business procedures. This study serves as an inspiration and reference for future research for higher education institutions that include the Internet of Things in their implementation to build an efficient teaching and learning environment.

Flying solo: professional isolation and role complexity in solo faculty programs

ABSTRACT Throughout the world of higher education, universities and colleges are reconceptualizing how their institutions are organized, especially in terms of faculty size related to overall programming. As adjunct rates increase and faculty positions are eliminated, many programs may be reduced to a single faculty lead. Yet, single faculty member programs are not well understood in the literature, nor are their roles in the larger higher education structure. This qualitative study explores the experiences of 12 university professors in the United States who coordinate single faculty programs, defined as academic programs employing only one tenured or tenure-track faculty member. Using the conceptual frameworks of Role Theory and Social Isolation, we explored the experiences of single faculty and how those experiences were influenced by the policies and practices of their institutions. Participants’ experiences of isolation included disciplinary/collaborative isolation, physical isolation, ownership isolation, and identity isolation. Participants described their roles as complex, unclear, and often unrecognized by others. Results indicate that faculty in single faculty programs may appear invisible within the current structure of academia and that revising existing practices could better support these faculty and their programs. Institutions must question whether single faculty programs should exist and the conditions under which these programs can succeed. Finally, policy and practice recommendations are offered for institutions, and even non-solo faculty peers, to support flying solo professors as they navigate serving their students and keeping their programs afloat.
