Abstract:
The influence of globalisation requires study programmes to continuously conduct self-evaluation in order to maintain the relevance of their academic programmes to the development of science and technology, the needs of society, and the demands of the world of work. Problems often arise when study programmes are unable to identify and evaluate themselves in responding to developments in science and technology, the needs of the world of work, and the expectations of graduate users. As a result, curriculum development is not systematic, holistic, and complex. This research aims to analyse the re

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to focus on the misunderstandings that hamper the graduate identity development process of black South African graduates in the first year of work. The authors introduce the role of an independent mediator in supporting identity development in a graduate development programme (GDP).

Abstract:
Despite the evident increasing unemployment rates, particularly youth unemployment, the South Africa’s graduate labour force continues to grow. Recent studies show the devastating figures of graduate unemployment which grow alongside the overall unemployment rates in South Africa. Undoubtedly, unemployment mostly affects young graduates who recently graduated from higher learning institutions. Thus, internships are increasingly recognised as a bridge through which graduates can transition from higher learning institutions to the labour market. However, whether internships are good or bad for y

This paper investigates importance and development of expertise and personal competencies of newly graduated engineers according to academic staff members, industrial employers and the graduated engineers themselves. The aim was to discover how graduated engineers perceive the importance of competencies at the time of graduation, and how various competencies have developed during their studies. For such purposes, a national-wide graduate survey was adopted as a basis for research.

After a short introduction of the LIS landscape in Austria, the development of LIS education for academic librarians will be discussed. Until 2004 library education in Austria consisted mainly of vocational training to which only university graduates and eventually high-school graduates were admitted. In the nineteen-nineties, with Austria joining the European Union and the creation of universities of applied sciences, LIS education became possible at the university level. For various reasons, the two established LIS programmes were discontinued after a relatively short time period. Major chan

In the fast-changing world, the success of engineering education depends not only on sound engineering knowledge, but also on the ability to apply it in practice from the moment young graduates enter the real industry.

There is a systemic shortage in the number of graduates entering the STEM workforce. To address the current graduate shortage (HM Govt, 2017), the widening gap between industry demand, the available skilled workforce (ASE, 2020), and the underrepresentation of key groups within STEM industries and academia requires overhauling the STEM education `pipeline´. However, there is a lack of consensus on how to increase the diversity of students pursuing STEM post-16 and how to tackle the dual challenges of engagement and science capital for the most underrepresented groups.

This paper is about transformations from knowing to not-knowing and from doing to becoming. The paper’s focus is an ongoing research project on a new Doctorate program in Modern Languages studies (DML) and the process that the students in this program undergo when transitioning from being practitioners to becoming novice scholars. This program is part of a conscious effort to create an academic field whereby scholarly and professional types of knowledge are organically co-produced and this interlaced knowledge is expected to fertilize practitioners’ professional practices. The program’s gradua

Abstract:
This paper aims to discuss the theoretical development and the practical validation of a taxonomy of skills for boosting new graduates employability at Higher Education Institutions (HEI). The taxonomy was developed within the framework of the project Skill Up: Matching graduates' skills and labour world demands through authentic learning scenario. The project, funded by the Erasmus+ programme of the European Union, is a strategic partneship in the field of Higher Education (HE) that involves six partners (four universities, a VET school and an employer representative) from three European coun

Abstract:
The School Completion Programme was established in 2002 to provide support for children and young people at risk of early school leaving and is part of a suite of supports offered through the Delivering Equality of Opportunity in Schools (DEIS)1 programme. The programme is run by Tusla Education Support Service (TESS) with oversight from the Department of Education. The programme is organised into 121 projects managed by a coordinator and overseen by a Local Management Committee (LMC). Each project covers a number of primary and post-primary schools. The programme currently covers 783 schools

Abstract:
Middle-level theory (MLT) sits between project-level theory, which is specific to a particular context, and grand theory, which is too general to be empirically useful. By understanding the underlying causal processes of a class of interventions, as well as the factors conditioning their operation, MLT seeks to enhance the transferability of study findings and so inform programme selection and design. During its inception stage, enhancing transferability through the use of MLT was identified as a Programme of Work for the UK Aid-funded Centre of Excellence for Development Impact and Learning p

This paper explores the research undertaken by the Nucleus of Interdisciplinary Studies on Women (NEIM), of the Federal University of Bahia (UFBA), Brazil, involving faculty and graduate and undergraduate students as part of the Countering Backlash research programme. The study focused on three major issues: the termination and re-installation of the ‘Bolsa Família Program’, a conditional cash transfer to poor families during the pandemic; the rising number of cases of gender-based violence, both in the domestic sphere and the political arena; and the continuous attempts to block access to leg

Abstract:
The goal of the Impact Indicator and Instruments for Individual Development Plans (I3IDP) project, funded by the NSF Innovation in Graduate Education [Grant No. 1806607], was to build a foundation for determining how and why the Individual Development Plan (IDP) process is effective for STEM graduate students. To achieve this goal, we defined "IDP" and the core components of the IDP process in the context of social sciences studies and theories, defined anticipated measurable outcomes for the IDP process, and developed and tested a set of instruments for demonstrating changes in student action

This study generated evidence on whether or not the basic education curriculum is geared towards developing problem-solving, collaboration, creativity, and critical thinking skills among those who graduate from the basic education system. It was informed by a mixed methodology research approach. The data were collected using interviews and documentary review. The findings reveal that the intention to promote 21st century skills through the basic education system in Tanzania is clear, as it is stated in various policy documents, including the Education for Self-Reliance philosophy, the 2014 Edu

The Disability Inclusive Development (DID) programme is a large disability programme funded by the UK government’s Foreign Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO). Under this programme, Task Order 20 is a project in Kenya aiming to develop the idea of inclusive early child development and education (IECDE), so that children with disabilities will be able to attend pre-schools alongside other children in their community. The project is trialling this approach in nine schools in different contexts, and as part of the project, the Institute of Development Studies UK is leading a piece of quali

Abstract:
Cash transfers are an increasingly popular development intervention. Many studies have focused on the positive impacts of cash transfers on the socio-economic welfare of recipients. Meanwhile, relatively little has been covered regarding when, and under what conditions, cash transfers can have potentially transformative social effects in improving inclusive governance, local development and state-society relations. This study considers whether cash transfers may enable recipients to make informal tax contributions to local community development projects in south-central Somalia.
