Full textAbstract:
The study aimed to describe the senior high school student officers’ level of involvement in their respective organizations and further investigate its existing relationship with their communicative competence by employing a descriptive correlational design. Using frequency count, percentage, mean, and Pearson r for statistical analysis of data, results revealed that most of the student leaders were actively involved with one recognized student organizations, devoted more than an hour in a week in their respective organizational activities regardless of its nature and occupied higher positions in the organization. Student leaders have communicative competence terms of verbal skills, non-verbal skills, organization, and subject knowledge and an existing significant relationship between their position in the organization and their communicative competence were found. In conclusion, student leaders who actively participate and occupy higher positions with different recognized student organization have bigger opportunity to attain communicative competence as they are exposed to different tasks and assignments that requires reading, writing, speaking, and understanding of the subject matter. Hence, it is recommended that parents, administrators, faculty members, organization moderators, and other stakeholders to support the active participation of learners in different student organization and design organizational activities that focus on the development of communication skills and competence. Moreover, future research employing a qualitative study design focusing on involvement and communicative competence may also be considered.

In celebration of 2022 Sigma Gamma Epsilon 46th National Convention being hosted by the University of Tennessee at Martin (UT Martin), Eta Alpha Chapter, this paper serves a synopsis that celebrates the history of student clubs and professional organizations in the geosciences program at UT Martin. The first geoscience student organization officially recognized by the University was devoted to geology, the GeoClub, and established in 1970 and still serves as the primary student organization for all of the geosciences. UT Martin established the Eta Alpha Chapter of Sigma Gamma Epsilon honor society in 1997. A Travel and Tourism club was in existence from 1994-1999, although it was not officially noted by the University until 1997. A student chapter of the American Meteorological Society was established in 2014, along with the establishment of that degree concentration. The most recent student organization to be established is the local chapter of the Association of Women Geoscientists in 2016.

Abstract The University of New England College of Osteopathic Medicine (UNE COM) has had a Geriatrics Club since 2003. This club then became recognized as an American Geriatrics Society (AGS) Student Chapter in 2006. In 2022, we also participated as a pilot GSA Student Chapter. The benefits of being a chapter of either one or two national organizations positions students for national student memberships, national resources, and networking opportunities. The AGS provides practice materials and skills information to the medical students. However, GSA provides opportunities beyond research presentations and publications, with approximately 1200 of GSA members connected to the Emerging Scholars and Professional Organization (ESPO). This applies to all health professions students and includes interprofessional opportunities. With a strong support system and mentoring system within ESPO, The GSA Student Chapter provides advancement in learning skills, attitudes and knowledge, along with an extensive network of fellow students and practitioners to support their undergraduate (pre-clinical and clinical) health professions education. This prepares students for their health professions careers by providing national organizational connections that they can rely on throughout their careers. Forming a GSA Student Chapter for health professions students, regardless of the type of health professions program will be shared and sample programs and events in palliative care, geriatrics and gerontology will be presented.

Full textAbstract:
The purpose of this article is to account for one of the aspects not addressed so far by the extensive bibliography on the National Workers University (UON): the characteristics of the only student organization officially recognized by the rector and its formation during the operation of the institution under the government of Perón: the Argentine Federation of Students of the Obrera University (FADEUO). In this sense, we will present how this incipient student entity was constituted and how its operation developed until its disappearance, after the coup d’état of September 16, 1955. Likewise, the study will investigate the relationship between this organization and the contemporary General University Confederation (CGU), in the general context of the relationship between Peronism and university reformism. This work will be carried out on the basis of a survey of a documentary corpus that includes: the magazine of this institution, resolutions and interviews carried out with former students. Finally, we will see that the FADEUO shared two characteristics with the CGU: it was an explicitly Peronist entity with a strong union bias and it had a very close relationship with the authorities of the university. However, unlike the CGU, the FADEUO did not seek to compete politically with other contemporary student organizations, since its actions were mainly focused on the cult and glorification of Perón within the UON.

<strong>ABSTRACT</strong><strong> </strong> Student leaders have the capacity to guide others in the achievement of the common goal. This led to the purpose of the study which was to determine the engagement of student leaders in civic affairs particularly in their community (local area). The researchers utilized a qualitative research method which involves semi-structured interviews with the ten students who are recognized to hold a position in an organization inside the school, also informed consent was given to the participants in order to gather data concisely and clearly. The results show that the participation of the student leaders in their community are through voting and volunteering. Under the latter, student leaders involved themselves in environmental-related affairs and people’s organizations. They were able to incorporate their leadership experiences into civic affairs by taking their time to listen to people’s voices and concerns, imparting knowledge, and proposing activities as well. Although they encounter criticism and difficulties in balancing their time between their leadership, civic roles, and family, student leaders are continuously gaining further knowledge and skills in these areas through their exposure to both worlds: school and community. Therefore, active participation of student leaders in civic affairs is seen in this study.

Full textAbstract:
The study shows that a patriarchal society where women are still in the minority when it comes to leadership positions is still dominating. A few studies are exploring the role of women in leadership in government and industry, and very little focus is paid on higher education institutions and more especially – from a female leadership perspective. Therefore, this paper aims to determine the factors that hindered female students from attaining leadership positions and simultaneously make recommendations to create more leadership opportunities in a nationally recognized student-led organization known as the Student Representative Council at a large public South African higher education institution – the University of KwaZulu-Natal. The target population was 16 female leaders who served in the University’s Student Representative Council from 2019 to 2020 of which 13 had responded. A qualitative approach was followed and interviews were conducted. The study employed inductive qualitative thematic analysis using NVIVO 12. Findings revealed that the Student Representative Council structure at the university was patriarchal with little commitment to gender equality. Males outnumbered women in leadership roles. Portfolios assigned to women were mainly administrative rather than leadership. Females were subjected to stereotypical behavior. The study recommended ways to promote female student leadership whereby policy and constitution change is required to facilitate gender equality and the implementation of quotas. Women should be empowered to enhance their leadership skills via effective leadership development programs specifically designed for females to address the leadership gap between males and females.

Full textAbstract:
The World Council for Curriculum and Instruction is recognized by the United Nations in consultative status with the Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC) as a transnational educational organization committed in its mission to advancing the achievement of a just and peaceful world community and promoting person-to-person and professional relationships. The WCCI in the Philippines is composed of educators and professionals from all over the Philippines who join together in this person-to-person, non- governmental, and non-profit global organization, committed to active participation in efforts to achieve the purposes of the organization. The WCCI Philippines Student Teachers Network was established in 2011 primarily to develop excellent teachers who will be demonstrating their leadership skills in their professional life, which exposed them to the WCCI Special Interest Groups and motivated them to get actively involved in the current and future WCCI organization. The student officers were involved in the planning of the annual convention themes and objectives with varied committees. The participants were exposed to big and small group collaborative activities in varied special interest groups. It could therefore be concluded that varied roles and skills have been demonstrated by 21st Century learners and teachers. It is recommended that the organization should continue the active involvement of the education students in specific activities in varied capacities as members, officers, advisers, and researchers among others.

This article provides a comprehensive study of the socio-psychological characteristics of students actively in-volved in university organizations, a key institution for socialization and development in the modern educational environment. Based on empirical research conducted at RUDN University (N = 136), the socio-demographic and personal characteristics of active student youth are analyzed. Classical and modern theoretical approach-es to understanding studentship as a dynamic social group undergoing a crucial stage of personality and social competence formation are reviewed. Factors influencing participation in extracurricular life, including motiva-tional aspects and personality prerequisites, are analyzed. The main focus is on constructing a comprehensive portrait of an activist through the widely recognized five-factor personality model (the Big Five) and a multi-component assessment of their social activity level. The study revealed a specific profile: active students more often come from large cities and families with average incomes, are characterized by high agreeableness, extraversion, open- ness to experience, and emotional stability according to self-assessments, but demonstrate relatively low con-scientiousness. A high level of social activity was noted, especially among students holding leadership posi-tions. High ambition and orientation towards self-realization were also identified, combined, however, with an increased level of anxiety among a significant portion of activists.

Full textAbstract:
Bound by compulsory attendance laws, over 48 million children attend public schools in the United States each year. Unfortunately, for a growing percentage of these students, compulsory attendance has not resulted in equitable achievement. In spite of educational reforms aimed at the school, district, state, and most recently, federal level, academic achievement gaps continue to exist between students of color and students of poverty as compared to white and/or more economically advantaged peers. Previously identified Educational Frameworks including the Effective Schools Correlates, Malcolm Baldrige Quality Improvement Educational Criteria, Stupski Foundation Components, and Professional Learning Communities Characteristics have described the elements present in successful schools and districts; however research into the process of how districts have made progress toward closing achievement gaps is less prevalent. This grounded theory study examined the processes employed by a single Texas school district serving over 26,000 students in an economically and ethnically diverse community which had made progress in closing achievement gaps with all students. Data gathered through semi-structured interviews, direct observations, and document reviews informed the findings. The research utilized Strauss and Corbin's three stages of coding: open coding, axial coding, and selective coding (Strauss & Corbin, 1998) for data analysis. Findings regarding the processes employed revealed that the district: created systems to select, develop and, evaluate leadership personnel; nurtured a district culture of shared accountability for results; crafted systems of accountability; built district structures to support learning and achievement; endorsed district-level decision-making; engineered a research-based and inquirydriven decision-making culture; intentionally managed change; deployed systems district-wide to impact change at the campus and classroom level, and embraced a commitment to professional learning.

Full textAbstract:
The monograph is devoted to the main trends in the development of the world economy between the two crises: The Great Recession of 2008-2009 and the crisis of 2020-2021 caused by the coronavirus pandemic. The authors reveal numerous contradictions that accumulated in the global economy during this period and reached their peak by the time the pandemic began. These contradictions are grouped into four groups corresponding to the sections: structural problems affecting the nature of economic growth; contradictions in the development of the financial system; problems of social development and the evolution of the welfare state; energy and resource-environmental problems. The authors demonstrate that the economic turmoil, the growth of political tension within the leading countries and the intensification of conflict in international relations in recent years are largely a reflection of humanity's inability to find an answer to these and other contradictions. The system of global regulation, which has entered a period of deep crisis, is particularly unable to keep up with the changes taking place in the global economy.
 It is the result of a three-year research project implemented at the Faculty of World Economy and World Politics of the National Research University Higher School of Economics. The team of authors includes 18 authors from Russian and foreign universities, research centers and international organizations who are recognized experts on various problems of the world economy. The chapters prepared by them are structured according to a single logic: from problem formulation to a review
 of theories, a description of existing approaches to solving problems, obstacles in their implementation and, ultimately, to identifying key challenges of the future. Such a structure allows us to present a comprehensive picture of the form in which the world economy has come to a critical moment of its development.
 For students and postgraduates of economic specialties. It will be useful for teachers developing courses on the world economy and its individual aspects, as well as for the general public interested in global challenges and problems.

Hernes, Tor. Organization and Time. Oxford University Press, 2022. http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/oso/9780192894380.001.0001.
Full textAbstract:
Observed through a temporal lens, organizational life fluctuates among moments of instantaneity, enduring continuity, and imagination of distant times. This movement stems from the fact that actors are continually faced with multiple intersecting temporalities, obliging them to make choices about what to do in the present, how to understand the past they emerge from, and how to stake out a possible future. Although scholars have widely recognized actors’multitemporal reality, it remains to be more fully theorized into an integrative framework. In this book, Tor Hernes takes up this challenge by combining foundational ideas from philosophy, sociology, and organization theory into an integrative theoretical framework of organizational time. Based on a review of the literature, his definition of time includes four dimensions: experience, events, resource, and practice. He provides examples of how these four dimensions evolve through mutual interplay and how they are underpinned by what he calls narrative trajectory. He then discusses implications for key topics in organizational research, including materiality, leadership and continuity and change. Organization and Time is for scholars and advanced students of organization studies, management studies, technology studies, and sociology.

Diversity and its management has become a feature of modern and postmodern organizations. Different practices have spread around the globe focusing on the organizing and management of inclusion and exclusion of persons and identities based on different genders, sexual orientations, racial and ethnic backgrounds, ages, and (dis)abilities, as well as religious beliefs. Different diversity dimensions are identified and different explanations provided as to how and why these dimensions should be organized and ‘managed’ professionally. The discourses of equal opportunities, gender mainstreaming, and diversity management address these inclusion and exclusion processes each in their own ways while also intersecting. However, although increasingly recognized as important, the discourses of diversity are multifaceted and not without controversy. Furthermore, diversity management discourses and practices have the potential to reproduce both inclusion and exclusion. This book covers the rich and diverse field of diversity studies in organizations in one book. It presents the foundations of organizing and managing diversities, offers multidisciplinary, intersectional and critical analyses on key issues, and opens up fresh perspectives in order to advance the diversity debate. It also inspires new debates on diversity by encouraging scholars to broaden their research agendas and assists students and scholars to increase their understanding of the field and its current discussions. The authors are leading experts in the field from all over the world.

Full textAbstract:
Instructors teaching the History of the English Language (HEL) will well recognize the challenge of covering its broad chronological scope. Additionally, convenient fictions about discrete historical periods and the uniformity of linguistic changes across synchronic varieties make chronological organization of a HEL course a problematic device. This chapter speaks to how an instructor could engage students in thinking critically about HEL’s chronological conventions by framing the course around a specific diachronic textual tradition. The author offers a practical example: a sequence of exercises based on vernacular translations of the “Shepherd Psalm.” Additionally, the chapter demonstrates how an instructor teaching HEL to literature students can get them to attend more closely to questions about language.

Full textAbstract:
Cooperation has become the leading strategy adopted by business and other organizations. It is taking on new forms that are adapted to changing market expectations and technological possibilities in the rapidly evolving business environment. This new edition of Cooperative Strategy provides a comprehensive view of the practical and theoretical literature concerning cooperative strategies, and the alliance and network organizational forms that are the enablers of these strategies. It takes the reader through the stages of developing a cooperative alliance, from choosing a cooperative form and selecting partners, to establishing an alliance and managing the process of cooperation. It examines cooperative strategies in different sectors as well as internationally, and discusses performance criteria and evolution of cooperation over time. With insights from internationally recognized experts on cooperative strategy, this book presents extensive research on the topic while also addressing practical issues of alliance management. Echoing the words of the famous social psychologist Kurt Lewin that “there is nothing so practical as a good theory,” the authors provide a sound understanding of the theory and research on cooperative strategy so as to inform its practice. In this respect, this new edition follows its predecessor as an essential resource for both students and managers alike.

Full textAbstract:
This article discusses the vast literature focusing on the historical evolution of multinational businesses. A broad consensus prevails among most students of the history of multinational enterprise that the modern multinational dates from the mid or late nineteenth century — that it is in fact a post-industrial revolution phenomenon. Only with steamships, railroads, and cables was it possible for managers to exercise control over business operations across borders in a meaningful manner. Transportation and communication revolutions were prerequisites for the existence of effective coordination within an individual firm. Over the years, however, this consensus has been challenged. Indeed, for decades it has been recognized that certain aspects of the modern multinational enterprise have had a long history. The research on pre-industrial age multinational enterprise adds new insights into the nature and history of this most important organization.

Full textAbstract:
Is it possible for visionary leaders to adhere to their idealism and integrity without becoming casualties of corporate conservatism and executive-level politics? This book says "yes," arguing for the need for visionary change agents in organizations and resolving the paradox of visionary change in a bureaucratic environment. Why do many companies state they want change but then often fire employees who truly rock the boat in their efforts to shift the paradigm to make improvements? How should "disposable visionaries" leaders who are passionate about new ideas, but who underestimate or intentionally ignore the political environment that supports maintaining the status quo and consequently are in danger of losing their jobs keep their passion regardless of the opposition and also keep their jobs? Written with wit and filled with poignant insights and well-documented examples, this book provides practical advice and encouragement to those who are driven to promote new ideas and reach new levels of achievement. Not just for executive-level corporate leaders frustrated by their company's resistance to change, the information and inspiration presented will be enlightening to anyone who has ever been puzzled or annoyed by obstructive internal politics at work. Readers will come away with effective ways to deal with politics, champion breakthrough innovation, be recognized as their organization's most valuable asset, and unlock their potential to change the competitive playing field. The book will also be invaluable for business students who need to be aware of potential obstacles they will likely face as they embark on their careers.

Full textAbstract:
It is widely recognized that Xenakis’s war experiences during the Occupation years in Athens were crucial for his later life and work. What is not known, however, is that, in addition to studying at the Polytechnic and participating in the Resistance, Xenakis also attended a singular drama school named ‘Theatriko Spoudastirio’ that was founded by the philologist, writer, and Shakespearean translator Vassilis Rotas (1889-1977). Prominent figures of Greek cultural life taught in this school, which also functioned as an undercover Resistance meeting point, since its students included hundreds of members of the United Panhellenic Youth Organization (EPON), the youth wing of the National Liberation Front (EAM), including Xenakis. As though putting the pieces of a puzzle together, this article attempts to bring to light Xenakis’s early theater studies through recently unearthed sources and the composer’s own rare references, and to also point out an elective affinity between Xenakis’s later treatment of ancient Greek tragedy and the ideas of his former teacher, Vassilis Rotas.

The concept of Instructional Technology (IT) has become recognized as a crucial element in the educational field. Instructional technologies are now supporting curricula that promote effectiveness and efficiency in academic performance of all levels of education in Nigerian schools. The objectives of bringing all the instructional tools together are to engage students and have the best potential that enhances learning outcomes. The concern of this chapter, therefore, is to address the agreeable definition of instructional technology, IT as educational problem solver focused on emerging technologies for teaching and learning. Areas of consideration are instructional technologies and its challenges, effective organization of instructional materials in schools, usefulness of local instructional packages, and obstacles in using instructional technology in Nigerian schools. The chapter concludes and recommends that schools should create enabling environments for the use of Instructional Technology (IT), which would enhance efficiency in teaching and learning.

Abstract The concept of ‘field’ has become increasingly popular with students of organization theory. DiMaggio and Powell (1983: 148) formally defined an organizational field as ‘those organizations that, in the aggregate, constitute a recognized area of institutional life: key suppliers, resource and product consumers, regulatory agencies, and other organizations that produce similar services or pro ducts’. The concept is central to an institutional view of organizations, and theorists have used the term to denote formations of organizations that are similar, have common practices, or share a certain focus of attention such as a market (Scott 1995). The popularity of the notion of field may partly be because it transcends earlier dualistically related concepts such as ‘organization’ and ‘environment’ or ‘firm’ and ‘industry’ that deny the embeddedness of the one in the other and also because it slips across levels of analysis, allowing for a more naturalistic explanation of organizational phenomena.

Full textAbstract:
Management by values (MBV) is a new form of management that creates a collective spirit and provides value-oriented work by combining people in an organization on common grounds. Even though existing research recognizes the importance of MBV in companies, less is known regarding MBV in educational organizations. This study provides an implementation of MBV at Istanbul Technical University (ITU) with an aim to increase the sense of belonging, create common organizational culture, reach targets, and perform higher so that the current engineering education provided is improved. The current situation of management at ITU was analyzed and an application method was developed, which was later implemented at Faculty of Management at ITU. Primary data used were collected from students, academicians, and managers of ITU via online surveys and face-to-face interviews. The results indicate that MBV, which has various benefits, should be used in educational organizations to build a more qualified educational environment, to raise more qualified students, and to have more satisfied members.

Full textAbstract:
Although business students can learn about ethics through case studies and examples, this learning may not lead to future ethical behavior in ambiguous situations or unsupportive cultures. Business schools can incorporate an experiential component to ethics education by giving students the opportunity to work in an organization with integrity: the business school itself. As students begin to develop their professional identities, the business school can establish students’ expectations about how ethical people and organizations function. This supports students in developing professional identities that incorporate integrity. The authors recommend that business schools utilize the cognitive triangle of thoughts, feelings, and actions in developing a culture of integrity. Addressing all three of these components can help students avoid cognitive distortions that make them unable to recognize ethical dilemmas or render them unaware of the consequences of decisions and behaviors. The authors suggest using a portfolio of tactics to create a culture of integrity, including integrity codes and honor codes, policies and procedures, reporting mechanisms, consequences, symbols and ceremonies, top management support, faculty-student relationships, and open, truthful exchange. Unethical actions are more likely to occur in organizations with individualistic, egoistic climates, thus the challenge is to create a more collectivist, community orientation.

Interprofessional education (IPE) is recognized as an important component in the education of healthcare students. The goal of bringing students together to learn with, from, and about each other is to ultimately impact collaborative practice and improve patient care. Over the last 20 years there has been increased focus on the design and implementation of IPE experiences. Several IPE collaborative organizations and IPE centers have been formed to provide evidence-based recommendations and guidelines. Strategies have been created for designing and implementing high quality IPE activities, developing faculty in IPE, overcoming student stereotypes, determining assessment strategies, and identifying barriers to IPE. This chapter will focus on each of these elements and provide specific recommendations on how to create and implement IPE that improves student learning.

Full textAbstract:
This paper explores processes and outcomes from virtual teamwork in a university course in Human-Computer Interaction. The course has students both on- and off-campus, with a very wide geographic distribution. The novel approach adopted in the course organized students into both small teams (three students) and into larger units (a group of six teams). Teams worked collaboratively, using a variety of communication channels: email, chat groups, face-to-face, and phone. Each team was responsible for preparing a power-point presentation that incorporated human-computer interaction design principles, that was then critiqued by other teams in their ‘group’. Overall, students’ experiences were extremely positive and recognized learning that contributed to course goals and effective virtual teamwork. Reflections on the processes involved in successful teamwork indicated that important factors included clear goals for the team, good task organization, similar personal achievement goals among team member, reliability and efficiency, open communication styles, and respect and understanding for others in the team.

"2020th was challenging for all teachers in Croatia. Although previously strengthened by the reform of the new Curricula in 2016 and the “School for Life” project in 2018, many have resisted the changes, including the digitalization of teaching. In March 2020th there were no alternatives. In the storm that threatened to stop education at all levels we had to strongly resist defeat and find the strength to fully digitalize teaching. It was no longer enough to have a systematic reform process or legalized curricula, but to make a personal digital transformation. It was imperative to carry out intrinsic reform of one's methodological skills, awaken creativity in teaching approaches and improve competences. Cooperation and exchange of experiences, as well as investment in improving digital maturity, digital pedagogy, and digital skills, were crucial for strengthening teachers’ personal potential. Series of webinars were designed to present new paradigms of teaching in the online environment in cooperation with the community of primary and secondary school mathematics teachers. Four areas in which digital competences of teachers are recognized are: Organization of online classes, Digital literacy, Communication in virtual classroom and External evaluation. E-student and E-teacher with obligatory Student-centered online teaching are key in organizing E-classroom. Subsets of such teaching for students are Project Assignment, Gamification, Flipped Classroom and Self-learning; and for teachers: Evaluation as learning, Formative and Summative evaluation and Individualized approach. Such schematic was upheld in organizing all 16 of webinars, building a foundation for perfecting teachers’ necessary skills. Positive effects are visible in the school year 2021/22 not only in online classes but in during face-to-face classes increasing digital maturity in both teachers and students and strengthening collaboration between teachers."

In The 3rd International Conference On Engineering And Innovative Technology. Salahaddin University-Erbil, 2025. https://doi.org/10.31972/iceti2024.008.
Full textAbstract:
IT Service Management (ITSM) is defined as a collection of processes, documentation, and practices required to manage Information Technology (IT) services effectively. Different frameworks based on industry best practices are available in the literature for designing and building an ITSM system, with the Information Technology Infrastructure Library (ITIL) being the most popular and widely accepted as the de facto standard. ITIL offers a systematic collection of best practices, but it does not provide a specific procedure for implementing an ITSM framework in enterprises and organizations. The core element of ITIL is the process (or practice in ITIL V4), and ITIL V4 includes 34 practices. Effective implementation of ITIL in an organization does not require the use of all these processes; the nature of the organization dictates the selection of necessary processes. However, official ITIL documents do not provide criteria for selecting the appropriate processes. In this study, a procedure focused on process selection and adaptation for managing ITSM using the ITIL framework in universities has been proposed. This method addresses Critical Success Factors (CSFs) to determine the most suitable ITIL processes for various business functions. Data was collected from university stakeholders, including academic leaders and students, through questionnaires. The proposed framework was applied in a case study involving five private universities in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq. Ultimately, a complete lifecycle for the implementation of the selected processes was designed. 1. Introduction Universities are among the largest, most complex, and multifaceted organizations that heavily rely on Information Technology (IT) for their operation and development. They view IT as a fundamental asset for their success ( The integration of IT and its sub-field Artificial Intelligence (AI) in teaching and educational sectors is crucial for enhancing learning quality. To achive this, universities need to deploy technology applications across all departments to deliver optimal services to both internal and external customers (Khan, 2012). Services provided by universities—such as online and recorded lectures, assignments, lecture schedules, student and faculty recruitment, infrastructure documentation, management and administration, stakeholder communication, and initiative management—are all managed through information systems (Palilingan and Batmetan, 2018). These services must be accurate, fast, and of high quality to meet customer satisfaction. Information Technology Service Management (ITSM) is a collection of processes, documentation, and practices essential for managing IT services. It is crucial for designing and delivering services to end users. Reviewing the best practices of ITSM has led to the development of various frameworks such as ITIL, DevOps, COBIT, Six Sigma, and others (Hertvik, 2017). Each ITSM framework has its own structure, lifecycle, processes, and modules, and many are supported by international bodies and recognized certifications. Implementing a complete framework like ITIL or COBIT in a large organization such as a university can be challenging, especially where the level of adoption is low or limited (Bianchi and Sousa, 2015). ITIL is applicable to organizations of all sizes, particularly large ones like universities and higher education institutions. It is the most popular IT Service Management (ITSM) framework in the IT industry and is considered a de facto standard. However, while ITIL provides a systematic description of best practices, it does not offer a specific procedure for implementing an ITSM framework in enterprises. This study investigates whether universities in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq need a standard ITSM framework and identifies the necessary processes for successfully implementing the ITIL framework on their campuses. This involves reviewing and evaluating the pros and cons of assessing the current status of ITSM at selected universities in the Kurdistan Region, and designing an institutionalized ITSM framework based on ITIL process management for these institutions.

Full textAbstract:
Social justice school leadership as a concept, while familiar in the United Kingdom, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, and the United States school leadership literature, is not widely recognized in other parts of the world. Social justice school leadership appropriately differs from one culture to another and is always context-specific to a particular school setting, great organization structure or country. However, social justice is a necessary and fundamental assumption for all educators committed to combating ignorance and the promotion of student global citizenship as a central theme of school practices. The purpose of this study was to provide understandings of ways that selected social justice school leaders from three countries; Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia conceive of and practice social justice in leading their schools. The manuscript describes how six Baltic directors, identified by local educators on the basis of research conducted by the International School Leaders Development Network (ISLDN) as social justice school leaders, responded to interview questions related to their practice. Four directors were Latvian and one each from Lithuania and Estonia. Limitations to the study include basing conclusions upon a single (or in one case, several) interview(s) per subject and limitations on generalizability of qualitative exploratory case study. By definition, every case study is unique, limiting generalizability. Interviews were thematically analyzed using the following definition: A social justice school leader is one who sees injustice in ways that others do not, and has the moral purpose, skills, and necessary relationships to combat injustice for the benefit of all students. Findings reveal strong application of values to identify problems based on well-being of all students and their families and to work collaboratively with other educators to find solution processes to complex issues related to social justice inequities. As social justice pioneers in their countries, these principals personify social justice school leadership in countries where the term social justice is not part of scholarly discourse.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract This study aims at assessing the readiness of a company that delivers solutions to the global energy industry to comply with the ISO 56002, which is part of the ISO 56000 family of standards from the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). ISO 56002 provides a systematic framework for establishing, implementing, maintaining, and continuously improving an innovation management system. By examining the company's compliance with this standard, the study highlights opportunities for enhancing its innovation capacity. A team of business students from Montana State University Billings interacted with the company's innovation team and senior management to evaluate the degree of ISO 56002 compliance and to provide recommendations for further developments. The assessment included five analytical categories: context of organization and leadership, planning and support, operations, performance evaluation, and continuous improvement. The team used a rating scale from 1 to 5 (with 5 indicating the highest level of compliance) to evaluate innovation-related competencies in each analytical category. As innovation is one of the main competitive differentiators for organizations within the energy industry, effectively managing innovation is crucial for both the current and future performance. Therefore, following the guidelines from ISO 56002 can be highly beneficial, as the standard provides guidelines to help the company sustain long-term results by managing innovation in a more systematic and organized way. The outcome of this study showed critical competencies necessary to maximize innovation success, such as having leaders who can manage innovation effectively, a workforce that can conduct research and identify uncertainties, systems in place to recognize market opportunities, and initiatives to empower employees to be creative and have their concepts validated. Although this list is not exhaustive, it represents the core organizational competencies towards a more effective innovation management. Within this context, the team of students estimated that the unit investigated is 2/3 compliant with the ISO 56002 guidelines. In addition, the students made recommendations to enhance compliance with the standard, with emphasis on restructuring the organization's approach to capturing innovation opportunities and improving its methods for measuring the performance and impact of its innovations. This study revealed potential benefits of implementing ISO 56002 standard in the energy sector, highlighting likely improvements in innovation performance, competitiveness increase, and stakeholder engagement. However, despite the benefits, the adoption of the standard is still limited to a few organizations in the global scenario, making its overall effectiveness unclear. This case study provides insights onto practical implications and possible outcomes of adopting ISO 56002 standard in oil and gas companies.

Full textAbstract:
[This Proceedings paper was revised and published in the 2019 issue of the journal Issues in Informing Science and Information Technology, Volume 16] Aim/Purpose: The study describes empirical research into agile Requirements Engineering (RE) practices based on an analysis of data collected in a large higher education organization. Background: Requirements Engineering (RE) in agile development contexts is considerably different than in traditional software development. The field of agile RE is still nascent where there is a need to evaluate its impact in real-world settings. Methodology: Using a case study methodology, the study involved interviewing nine experienced software practitioners who reflected on the use and implementation of various agile RE practices in two software development projects of a student management system. Contribution: The primary contribution of the paper is the evaluation of agile RE practices in a large tertiary educational organization. Based on the analysis of the data, it provides valuable insights into the practice of agile RE in a specific context (i.e., education), but just as importantly, the ones that were omitted or replaced with others and why. Findings: While the evolutionary and iterative approach to defining requirements was followed in general, not all agile practices could be fully adhered to in the case organization. Although face-to-face communication with the customers has been recognized as one the most important agile RE practices, it was one of the most difficult practices to achieve with a large and diverse customer base. Addressing people issues (e.g., resistance to change, thinking, and mindset) was found to be a key driver to following the iterative RE process effectively. Contrary to the value-based approach advocated in the literature, the value-based approach was not strictly adhered to in requirements prioritization. Continuous integration was perceived to be a more beneficial practice than prototyping, as it allows frequent integration of code and facilitates delivering working software when necessary. Recommendations for Practitioners: Our study has important implications for practitioners. Based on our empirical analysis, we provide specific recommendations for effective implementation of agile RE practices. For example, our findings suggest that practitioners could address the challenges associated with limited face-to-face communication challenges by producing flexible, accessible, and electronic documentation to enable communication. Recommendations for Researchers: Researchers can use the identified agile RE practices and their variants to per-form in-depth investigations into agile requirements engineering in other educational contexts. Impact on Society: There are a number of new technologies that offer exciting new opportunities that can be explored to maximize the benefits of agile and other requirements techniques. Future Research: Future research could conduct case studies in different contexts and thus con-tribute to developing bundles or collections of practices to improve software development processes in specific contexts.

Since the beginning of the pandemic, humanity has faced an additional threat, namely the spread of unnecessary, unreliable and harmful information, which is called infodemia. It has become one of the greatest challenges of our time therefore the heads of state, world organizations and owners of social media have stepped up to fight it. In our opinion, pedagogical workers, in particular employees of the psychological service of the education system, should join the educational and preventive work. Every user of social networks becomes a newsmaker with only an account and access to the Internet. And because students are active users of social media, the share of their participation in the dissemination and creation of false information is significant. This publication proposes a system of starting practical psychologists and social educators of educational institutions in the relevant refresher courses, which will allow them to conduct quality practical work with students and their parents. The content of training should take into account the components of the nutrient medium for information viruses, the fight against pandemic fakes, the system of forming sensational news, the features of hate speech, the formation of news literacy and others. It is also necessary to train specialists, and later each student, to recognize false, partially reliable and manipulative information. Since the main spreader of information viruses is humans, training should apply to everyone. Keywords.

Full textAbstract:
The importance of flexible and optimal planning of engineering design process for ensuring business success is increasingly recognized in today’s competitive environment. Because a product consists of a lot of subsystems each of which has technical functionalities, an engineering design process consists of two different activities, i.e., an activity to enhance the technical performance level of each subsystem, and an activity to enhance the integrity among the subsystems. When considering the limitation of resources that a manufacturer possesses, there is a trade-off between the achievement probabilities of those activities, although they correlate with each other. This paper proposes a new optimization method of design process planning that aims at a Pareto-optimal achievement of individual technical performances and total product integrity in order to support decision makings of a project manager. A planning of design process is a very complicated optimization problem including a number of various design variables and various evaluation indices. Some of those are discrete factors, while the others are continuous. In order to solve such a complicated problem with a reasonable computation cost, this research separates the optimization problem into two sub problems, i.e., (i) defining of process architecture and organization structure, that is, definition of activities, their sequences, and task groups and (ii) scheduling of resource allocation into activities. A growth curve model with a fuzzy number, which we have been developing, is used to formulate objective functions that evaluate the achievement probability of technical performance and its total integrity. The same model is adopted for objective functions of both sub problems so as to keep consistency between their optimization results. Neighborhood Cultivation GA (NCGA) is adopted in order to effectively solve the multi-objective optimization problem. This paper demonstrates its application to a student design project in order to show the ability of the method. A proposed optimization method facilitates a project manager to explore various process plans, to assess their risks, and decide a temporary plan.

Full textAbstract:
In the process of transforming the priority of material and technical values to the paradigm of flexible thinking, communicative interaction becomes a new value, which is a vital competence in the integrative multicultural reality of the global world, where cultural diversity is recognized as a key value. Diversity management is now dominant in organizational management, the ability to focus on organizing behavior based on the interaction of all parties in an environment where many cultures are intertwined. The multidimensionality of the multicultural environment poses a challenge in determining the degree of cultural distance in an organization. This allows us to understand the similarities and differences between the host culture and the culture of foreign visitors and students, and to identify gaps and barriers to intercultural interaction and adaptation tools. It also calls for the formation of all actors in the educational process of the necessary knowledge and skills that contribute to their adequate orientation in belonging to their own culture and awareness of the influence of their value dominants in practical situations of intercultural communication. Thus, in organizational management, host Russian universities face the challenge of recognizing their own cultural paradigm and thinking.

In recent years, the burgeoning demand for skilled professionals in the technology sector has become increasingly evident. Capitalizing on this trend, a non-governmental organization in Rio de Janeiro recognized it as a unique opportunity to empower the city's youth. In collaboration with a public university, it was proposed a training program focused on programming logic with Python and an introduction to data analysis, specifically tailored for high school students. Thus, this work aims to present the experience of designing and implementing this course. With a clear emphasis on the unique characteristics of our target audience, we crafted a curriculum utilizing active teaching methodologies: project-based learning and the flipped classroom approach. By the conclusion of the course, students not only demonstrated their ability to complete the proposed projects but also actively participated in an evaluation of their learning experience, answering a questionnaire and participating in interviews. The results of this evaluation were overwhelmingly positive, shedding light on the student's desire to pursue further studies in computer science.

The paper studies the process and means of forming the professional competence of students of TEI, which are an important structural element for the formation of effective activities at relevant institutions. The interpretation of the concept of the categories “personality competence”, “competence” and “web-quest” is analyzed. Problem quests concerning theoretical and practical training of students, and procedures of internship practice on professional specialization are investigated. The pedagogical conditions of creation of professional competence of students in the preconditions of professional and practical training are studied. The model of organization of professional competence of the perspective specialist-graduates of TEI is formed and the ways of reorganization of educational process and organizational-methodical insurance are defined. It has been established that the quality of education at TEI largely depends on the method of formation of the educational process, the chosen forms and methods. The role and basic objectives of the preliminary preparatory work on the part of the teacher are formed. It has been investigated that the web-quest is unanimously recognized as a motivational, resource-oriented technology that forms the course of creative potential of the student, which guarantees the effectiveness of all types of educational process and ensures the creation of appropriate professional competence of students.

Full textAbstract:
Supporting an ageing population is a globally recognised challenge (United Nations, 2020; World Health Organization, 2023). In the next ten years, the healthcare sector in Aotearoa New Zealand will confront this significant issue as the number of older adults markedly increases (Stats NZ, 2020). By 2036 over a quarter of the population of New Zealand will be over 65 years old (Te Pou o te Whakaaro Nui, 2019.) This demographic shift warrants significant attention because of increasing longevity and the number of older adults that will be living with complex or multiple diagnoses requiring supportive healthcare. As a consequence of technological and medical advances, adults will be living longer with chronic illness and the effects of ageing.

We conducted an analysis of the learning aids used in the study of general technical disciplines. This allowed us to draw an analogy between physical and virtual models and justify the development of a mobile application to perform tasks on a projection drawing. They showed a technique for creating mobile applications for augmented reality. The main stages of the development of an augmented reality application are shown: the development of virtual models, the establishment of the Unity3D game engine, the development of a mobile application, testing and demonstration of work. Particular attention is paid to the use of scripts to rotate and move virtual models. The in-house development of the augmented reality mobile application for accomplishing tasks on a projection drawing is presented. The created mobile application reads, recognizes marker drawings and displays the virtual model of the product on the screen of the mobile device. It has been established that the augmented reality program developed by the team of authors as a mobile pedagogical software can be used to perform tasks both with independent work of students and with the organization of classroom activities in higher education institutions.

However, to date, there is very limited research on how young people in Cambodia perceive and prepare for entrepreneurial careers. This quantitative study draws on the survey data collected from 834 students in 19 higher education institutions (HEIs) to, first, understand how undergraduates in Cambodia plan and prepare for entrepreneurial career choices and, second, identify the factors associated with their intention to become entrepreneurs. The students in the sample were mostly in their third and final year of study; about half of them were completing a degree in business, management, marketing and related services. The quantitative data collected were analysed together with a review of academic literature on EE as well as policy documents and reports on innovation and entrepreneurship support in Cambodia. We believe that the data and the findings of the study can help the government and HEIs promote entrepreneurship more effectively and efficiently. The study finds that most students had very promising attitudes towards the career choice of being an entrepreneur. Eighty-two percent of them responded positively to the statement “I will make every effort to start and run my own firm” and 61 percent of them planned to have their own companies 5 years after graduation. Around one-third of the students already had the experience of forming and/or operating a business, most of which were in the trade sector (wholesale and retail). A large majority of these students gained their business experience fairly recently, within the last 12 months at the time of the survey. The study also collected data on whether the students received EE, which included both formal academic education programs and training workshops offered by other organizations. Most of the students in the sample (70 percent) had attended EE programs at some point. It also finds that the EE was largely effective in boosting students’ motivation, knowledge, and skills in starting a new business. EE notably comprises not only the learning of theories and knowledge; and, in recent years, the government, HEIs and other stakeholders have been promoting start-up programs and other opportunities for students to gain practical experience. The data showed that the level of participation in such programs and activities was generally low, although most of them acknowledged that they were aware of the programs or activities. Workshops or training on entrepreneurship were the most popular activities, in which about 50 percent of the respondents took part. Entrepreneurship promotion events and business start-up programs ranked second and third, with 30 percent and 26 percent of the respondents said they participated, respectively. Very few students had been engaged in mentoring, consultation, business plan competition, and start-up programs. This was the case despite students’ relatively high interest in setting up their own businesses; in other words, there appeared to be an “intention-action gap”. Regarding the factors associated with the students’ intention to become entrepreneurs, the study reviewed academic literature and identified nine influential factors. The nine factors are on three dimensions: individual, family and social, and entrepreneurship-related education. The study used multiple linear regression to test whether these nine variables are associated with the students’ entrepreneurial intention. The study finds that, on the individual dimension, students who identified themselves as Cambodian Chinese (Cambodian with Chinese ancestry) tended to have higher entrepreneurial intentions. Students with higher personal attributes like innovativeness, risk-taking propensity, proactiveness and critical thinking were also more likely to have a stronger entrepreneurial intention. Previous studies have found that these attributes were significant predictors of entrepreneurial intention, and this study confirms that such correlation remains valid in the Cambodian context. However, the study could not find any evidence to support the gender-based difference in entrepreneurial intention. Regarding the factors on the family and social dimension, the study finds that family income and perceived appropriateness were two variables that significantly predicted entrepreneurial intention. Such findings are in line with previous studies, indicating that family financial support and positive perception of entrepreneurial career in Cambodia greatly influenced students’ intention to start their own companies. All the three factors related to EE are found to be strong predictors of students’ entrepreneurial intention. There are significant even after controlling for other factors in the model. These factors are participation in start-up programs and related activities, doing a business major, and having a positive perception of higher education support. These findings reconfirmed the importance of EE in Cambodia in increasing students’ intention to become entrepreneurs. The study also points out that three of all the factors included in the analyses seem to be most influential in determining entrepreneurial intention. They are: personal attributes (innovativeness, risk-taking propensity, proactiveness and critical thinking), perceived appropriateness of entrepreneurship for society, and perceived support from higher education institutions. Based on the findings, the study puts forward three recommendations for the government, HEIs and other stakeholders on the provision of EE. First, it is advisable that HEIs provide students with more opportunities to gain “hands-on experience”, including internship and entrepreneurial activities. This would help further increase students’ entrepreneurial intention and close the intention-action gap. Second, there is a need for providing and strengthening startup-supporting programs in universities, as they help students act on their intention and foster innovation. HEIs with less resources may want to consider making use of the existing startup support network in Cambodia. Third, HEIs should continue to provide courses and learning activities that develop the four positive personal attributes that contribute to increasing entrepreneurial intention (i.e., innovativeness, critical thinking, proactiveness and risk-taking propensity). Also, it is advisable to start building these competencies early on at a lower level of education, as such attributes tend to take a long time to form.
