Abstract:
Measuring human motivation requires understanding the outcomes individuals value and the strategies they prefer to employ to attain them. Knowledge of promotion and prevention, two pivotal motivation orientations, provide key information regarding these aspects. The Regulatory Focus Questionnaire, which measures these two independent constructs, was validated using data provided by university students and alumni of an elite U.S. university. Thus, little is known whether this instrument provides reliable and valid measures of promotion and prevention in a population of younger respondents from a different culture. To bridge this gap, the study employed data collected from three independent large samples of New Zealand secondary school students and used the jigsaw piecewise technique in combination with confirmatory factor analyses. Findings show that, in this population, items in the Regulatory Focus Questionnaire measure promotion and prevention as theoretically distinct constructs.

Abstract:
Background: Recent New Zealand policy documents aim for pharmacists to be retained, and promote the provision of extended clinical pharmacy services. However, younger pharmacists have expressed dissatisfaction with the profession on informal social for a.
 Objectives: To explore the characteristics, and perspectives of pharmacy as a career, of recent Bachelor of Pharmacy (BPharm, four-year degree) graduates who have left, or are seriously considering leaving the New Zealand pharmacy profession in the near future and where they have gone, or plan to go.
 Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional study with a mixed-method explanatory sequential design. An anonymous online survey among those who completed their pharmacy undergraduate degree (BPharm or equivalent) in 2003 or later and who had left or who were seriously considering leaving the New Zealand pharmacy profession in the next five years, was open from 1st December 2018 to 1st February 2019. Recruitment occurred via University alumni databases, pharmacy professional organisations, pharmaceutical print media, social media and word-of-mouth. Ten semi-structured interviews were then conducted with a purposive sample of survey respondents. Descriptive statistics were generated from the quantitative data and qualitative data were analysed using manifest content analysis.
 Results: We received 327 analysable surveys of which 40.4% (n=132) were from those who had already left the New Zealand pharmacy sector at the time of the data collection and the rest (59.6% n=195) were those working within the sector, but seriously considering leaving the profession. Reasons most commonly reported for studying pharmacy were having an interest in health and wanting to work with people. The most common reasons for leaving, or wanting to leave, were dissatisfaction with the professional environment, including inadequate remuneration, and a perceived lack of career pathways or promotion opportunities. A wide range of career destinations were declared, with medicine being most frequently reported.
 Conclusions: Most of the reasons for leaving/considering leaving the profession reported relate to the values and features of the pharmacy profession such as the professional environment, remuneration and career pathways. These findings are consistent with other studies and may represent a barrier to achieving the aims of recent health policy documents.

Abstract:
The purpose of this study is to utilize social media to create a network of alumni linkedin and job information to the network in which the activation of this as a prerequisite for taking the diploma so that it fosters an emotional bond between alumni and the university. The method used is surveymethod with observation and interviews with literature. Then analysis system to identify the weaknesses in the system and the information needs of its users. The results of this analysis is that every student can perform activation on the alumni web to take a diploma requirements, establish communication among alumni, students and faculty as well as notifications of incoming mail to each member on job vacancies. The disadvantage is social media is new and only professional people who know. Implementation of this system in the form of web alumni who provide facilities such as linkedin regenerate the access token, looking for names of alumni, the alumni profile, menu provided by the company and job profile and job application that is included in each profile alumni. The existence of the alumni web by using this linkedin, each alumnus can obtain job information and company profile and can communication between alumni and the university.

Abstract:
PurposeResponding to increasing external pressure, universities are developing new strategies to illustrate the impact of their degrees on graduate employability. This paper investigates how alumni regard the development of their professional networks during their tertiary education in relation to employability and the associated pedagogical implications.Design/methodology/approachA qualitative approach using semi-structured interviews with 18 business and arts alumni from a regional university.FindingsThe findings reveal the importance of developing a professional network by cultivating social capital while at university. Alumni identify all forms of work-integrated learning (WIL), connectedness through social media, the role of university staff and volunteering as concrete ways to develop a professional network and enhance employability.Research limitations/implicationsThis paper has pedagogical implications to develop graduate employability and WIL. Universities should draw from alumni networks to help develop students' bridging capital through industry-facing WIL projects. Educators should design assessment tasks in which students develop contacts and networking capabilities with alumni and other professionals using various platforms (e.g. social media). In addition, educators should promote the benefits of voluntary work and invite alumni and other industry stakeholders to co-design and co-teach areas of curriculum.Originality/valueDrawing from the experiences of alumni re-routes the channel of communication from institutions expressing the importance of professional networks in relation to employability, to credible industry alumni confirming this importance. Few previous studies have taken this “outside-in approach” to emphasise and validate the importance of developing professional networks in relation to employability, particularly at regional universities.

In this paper, Prof. Fox investigates the inspiration that More, the man for all seasons, may have for our epoch. Observing the early post-war development of postmodernism, the author draws a comparison between the intellectual challenges that were experienced in the second half of the 20th century and those known to More in this writings, his spiritual development and his concerns as a lawyer. The contradictions revealed in More’s life are fully explored in this essay, culminating in More’ existential certainty expressed in the paradox of this trial and death: More’s experience was therefore archetypal for the concerns of a post-modern age.

Abstract:
Background: Teledermatology is the delivery of specialist dermatological services at a distance. It has become possible because of technological advances in digital imaging and telecommunications. Consultations may be “interactive” using video-conferencing equipment or “store-and-forward” using prerecorded text and images. The best method to deliver teledermatology services is unknown. Objective: Studies were designed to determine (a) if it was possible to diagnose and manage skin diseases using video-conferencing equipment, (b) if teledermatology was acceptable to patients and medical practitioners, and (c) whether it offered any economic advantages. We have also compared interactive and store-and-forward techniques. Method: The trials were conducted in collaboration with the Institute of Telemedicine & Telecare, Queen's University, Belfast, as part of the UK Teledermatology Trials. Remits: The trials have involved more than 300 teledermatology consultations. Having established that a diagnosis can be made in more than two-thirds of the cases, the majority of video consultations have resulted in satisfactory management, with only small numbers of patients requiring face-to-face review. Teledermatology is generally popular with patients and can save them considerable time and money. Routine clinics continue in three centers. We have found that effective store-and-forward teledermatology requires very good images and comprehensive historical referral data.

Full text
Abstract:
In New Zealand, as in many other western societies, the higher education system has become an increasingly less secure place in which to work, and over 40 per cent of those teaching in New Zealand higher education are sessional staff of some kind. Our university in New Zealand has long relied on parttime paid tutors, many of whom are students themselves, to deliver part of the teaching in large courses. These tutors work with groups of students facilitating their learning in workshops, seminars, laboratories and a variety of other teaching environments. We have tracked the experiences of tutors over a significant period of time, and surveys of tutors’ experiences since 2007 reveal that the majority of respondents hold tight to the hope of a future academic career. They regard tutoring as good preparation for an academic career, and many report being even more committed to pursuing an academic career since beginning tutoring. How can we best support tutors to navigate their way into an academic career that might look somewhat different from the one they set out to pursue? This paper shares data and insights from our longitudinal research with tutors, and encourages those supporting sessional staff to think about how to enable tutors to take a scholarly approach to their teaching, regardless of the career path they eventually take.

Full text
Abstract:
Between 1915 and 1925, Harvard University conducted the first national public fund-raising campaign in higher education in the United States. At the same time, Harvard Law School attempted the first such effort in legal education. The law school organized its effort independently, in conjunction with its centennial in 1917. The university campaign succeeded magnificently by all accounts; the law school failed miserably. Though perfectly positioned for this new venture, Harvard Law School raised scarcely a quarter of its goal from merely 2 percent of its alumni. This essay presents the first account of this campaign and argues that its failure was rooted in longstanding cultural and professional objections that many of the school's alumni shared: law students and law schools neither need nor deserve benefactions, and such gifts worsen the overcrowding of the bar. Due to these objections, lethargy, apathy, and pessimism suffused the campaign. These factors weakened the leadership of the alumni association, the dean, and the president, leading to inept management, wasted time, and an unlikely strategy that was pursued ineffectively. All this doomed the campaign, particularly given the tragic interruptions of the dean's suicide and World War I, along with competition from the well-run campaigns for the University and for disaster relief due to the war.

He discusses important international treaties, the role of the civil population, and what would happen if war came to New Zealand. Professor Salmond concludes that a key player in resolving international disputes was arbitration, which he believed was full of hope and promise for the future.

Abstract:
This study examines alumni perceptions of the core curricula at the University of North Georgia’s College of Business to assess the gap between the skills employers need in new graduates and what the curricula offer. The research was conducted as part of the continuous improvement process for AACSB accreditation. The findings reveal that soft skills such as communication and problem-solving were highly rated as being useful, whereas the alumni rated calculus and international business skills as less important for daily job requirements. The study provides relevant information for colleges of business as they look to update their core curricula for business majors.

Salah satu dari beberapa hal penting yang dimiliki kurikulum atau tujuan utama kurikulum itu sendiri adalah untuk mencapai hasil pembelajaran dan target kebutuhan saat ini. Dengan merancang kurikulum baru dan mencocokkannya dengan standar kurikulum internasional berdasarkan Jaminan Mutu Jaringan Asean (AUN-QA), diharapkan kebutuhan siswa tercapai. Namun, perubahan kurikulum tidak bisa dilakukan tanpa peran Alumni sebagai salah satu pemegang peranan penting. Artikel ini bertujuan untuk membahas pendapat dan saran terhadap perubahan kurikulum dari alumni Jurusan Bahasa Inggris Fakultas Bahasa dan Seni Universitas Negeri Padang sebagai Komunitas yang memiliki pengalaman dalam mencari pekerjaan baik di bidang pendidikan maupun non pendidikan. Berdasarkan teori analisis kebutuhan, kuesioner kebutuhan siswa disampaikan ke beberapa perwakilan alumni. Temuan menunjukkan bahwa beberapa orang yang pernah bekerja di bidang pendidikan, dari empat aspek kompetensi, pengetahuan dan keterampilan bagaimana mendiagnosis karakteristik siswa sangat dibutuhkan dan mereka harus memiliki keterampilan di bidang TIK (Kompetensi Pedagogik). Selain itu, pengetahuan tentang trend pengajaran bahasa juga dibutuhkan (Professional Competence). Apalagi sikap bagaimana menggunakan bahasa dengan cara yang baik dalam kehidupan sosial juga dibutuhkan (Social Competence). Kemudian, untuk kompetensi personal, kebanyakan dari mereka sepakat bahwa aspek agama harus dimiliki oleh mahasiswa.

Abstract:
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to understand the roles that social capital and real-world learning may play in enhancing the effects of university education for sustainable development (ESD) on social sustainability. Design/methodology/approach A conceptual framework that identifies the plausible effects of university ESD on social sustainability along three outcome dimensions (think-act-leverage), broadening desirable program learning outcomes and proposing enabling roles for social capital and real-world learning, is substantiated and validated through qualitative insights from a focus group. The framework serves to structure a survey to alumni of a postgraduate program in sustainability (2011–2018). Hierarchical clustering analysis is used to identify differences in perceived, sustainability-related effects of the program on direct beneficiaries and their relationship with stakeholders in their communities. Findings Implementation of real-world learning in partnership with organizations in the community that actively involves alumni not only extends desirable effects beyond individual program learning outcomes and outside the academia but may also renew them over time. Practical implications University administrators should foster the creation of new social capital of students and alumni and their commitment with service learning and other credit-bearing opportunities as actionable enablers to enhance the social sustainability effects of university ESD. Originality/value The paper contributes to a dual theoretical and empirical void related to the effects of university ESD on the social dimension of sustainability through the proposal of a conceptual framework and quantitative assessment of the dynamic effects of university ESD at the local level.

Abstract:
Increasing the numbers of Pacific Island students who graduate from New Zealand universities is important for the students’ futures, their families, communities and society in general. In this study, Pacific graduates ( N = 365) who are participants in the Graduate Longitudinal Study New Zealand were asked to describe what factors helped or hindered their qualification completion. Graduates from all eight New Zealand universities were surveyed between July and December 2011. Pacific graduates identified external (e.g. family), institutional (e.g. university staff) and student or personal (e.g. motivation) factors that both helped and hindered the successful completion of their studies. Understanding the hindrance factors faced by Pacific students and the factors that have contributed to their educational success can help to inform policy and practice to achieve national priorities of equity and successful outcomes for Pacific learners.
