The processes of globalization and integration in modern conditions have significantly intensified. They have a significant impact on the sphere of education, causing the intensification of the processes of reforming higher education as a single integrated pedagogical system. These trends lead to the need to reformat the purpose, content, methods, means, and forms of education in higher education based on innovation, interaction, and mutual coherence. The article aims to substantiate the theoretical foundations and applied aspects of the study of higher education as a pedagogical system. The methodological basis of the study consists of general scientific and special methods of scientific knowledge and fundamental research, namely: system analysis, synthesis, scientific abstraction, analogies, comparisons, comparative analysis, graphical, tabular, generalization, and systematization. The obtained results of the study helped to establish that the development and functioning of higher...

The success in Human life depends on the knowledge and skills individual possess. Knowledge helps to enjoy and manage physical and social changes but using knowledge for social cause will gives wisdom. The higher education system in developing country like India should impart knowledge and disseminate skills through empowering the learner. Value based education deliver theoretical, legal, ethical and practical ideologies to the students. Higher education institution should aim to improve slow learners by developing their skills. Innovations in teaching, learning and evaluation are essential to spread quality education in the country. Professor, Pradeep M.D. has developed " Consistent Learning Model " and " Life Centric Skill Enrichment Framework " to build competency among students in higher education. These models collaborates the variables of learning environment, learning methods and interest of the pupil with learning pedagogies. Everyone should consistently grow and develop in life to be self sufficient in the society. These pedagogies are innovations that could be adopted by any higher education institutions to improve the slow learners and enrich the skills among students by building competency to face the challenges in life. These models are based on the life expectancy decided by the Union Ministry of Health and Family Welfare during 2015. This paper review various techniques used to regulate the system of education, identifies the skill delivery model for higher education and evaluates the Strength, Weakness, Opportunity and Threat associated with the " Consistent Learning Model " and " Life Centric Skill Enrichment Model " in building competency of students at higher education in India.

Today’s graduates are engaged with the demands of the current knowledge age; the skills needed to succeed in live and the workplace in 21st century. This paradigm shift coupled with high demand for university education puts higher learning institutions in a crisis situation due to: enrolment pressure against static resources; demand for 21st century competencies in knowledge, skills and attitudes that correspond with needs of contemporary workplace, and the economic inflation. In Kenya, tuition costs have been escalating beyond the management of students from the average income families thus putting the students in significant debts of fee arrears, and declining completion rates. Also the universities are expanding drastically through opening of new satellite campuses all over the country to meet demand for higher education whereas; both human and teaching resources continually remain constraints in existing and new campuses. To arrest this trend, the universities are struggling to re-invent themselves to reduce costs whilst improving quality, utilizing the minimum resources, and increasing flexibility for students. Innovative pedagogy is a responsive system to address these growing demands while efficiently utilizes the limited resources. In this context, new technologies have enormous potential to effect changes and enable universities to meet broader range of learners’ needs. The educators and policy makers have a duty to embrace the transformation. This concept paper therefore is informed by constructivism and ACTION models to base the argument on reinventions in Higher Learning Institution. The focus of the paper is on: impact of innovative pedagogy in learning, acceptance rate by the universities, implication for the future, and the challenges of using new pedagogies.

In this article¹, higher education pedagogy is contextualised in the broader fields of the aims to be achieved, of the undertaken educational policies and the social demands made to this level of education. Special attention is given to the role of higher education in the construction of the knowledge society. Some critical issues have been presented and briefly examined with reference to student-centred teaching, since the author regards this as the first step (though not the only one) towards achieving pedagogical excellence in higher education. If this is the main objective, then investment in the formal teacher training of university professors is necessary.

Technology use can introduce fundamental pedagogical changes that are integral to achieving significant academic improvements in higher education. When used to support learning, technology permeates higher education with digital learning mechanisms; enlarges course offerings and instructional alternatives; facilitates learning 24 hours a day; develops 21st century skills; enables greater student motivation; and facilitates deeper comprehension of concepts. The use of technology also has the potential to modify learning by instituting a new model of intertwined instruction. Present-day multilingual technology has transcended the debate about language dominating the educational space. Instead, it is now a question of how progressive multilinguals act differently as they take part in current opportunities offered by the various languages on the web. The appreciation and embracing of heteroglossic perspectives in e-learning repudiate inscribed ideologies that posit monolingualism as the default norm in education.Through a sociolinguistic lens focusing on the Funds of Knowledge theory, this article seeks to explore the role language plays in e-learning and how educators can use multilingualism as a teaching/learning resource in higher education. The study presents results from a mixed methods approach in which 42 purposively sampled distance teacher education undergraduate students were taught through English and Shona. Data was collected through focus group interviews and a written assessment activity. Quantitative data suggests an improved performance while qualitative data presents an acknowledgement by students of the efficacy of multilingual pedagogy.The article recommends the use of multilingual approaches in today's linguistically diverse e-learning higher education classrooms. It further justifies acknowledging that multilingualism is not new, even if the dramatic secularisation of the term seems recent.

The validity and relevance of Higher Education (HE) is being challenged by the marketisation, value for money and negative discourse of educational relevance within society. This leads to ever-increasing pressure and opportunity for us to scrutinise, discuss and interrogate the purpose of teaching in HE. Since it is only through researching our pedagogic practice that we will be able to confidently respond to, and inform, the ever changing ‘shifting sands’ of the HE landscape.

Higher Education has an important role in the task of rebuilding a nation and it paves the way for overall development of a nation. The twentieth century has witnessed several revolutions like Green revolution, White revolution, I.T revolution, so on and so forth, taking human civilization to new heights. At the start of 21st century, we gave a lot of importance given to higher education. Every country realized the value of higher education and the benefits that accrue from it. "The social demands for higher education continue to increase. The inabilities of the state to support this growing demand result in new financing arrangements for higher education. The recent reforms in this area could be broadly divided into two categories: the privatization of public institutions and the establishment of private institutions of higher education. Privatization implies the application of market principles in the operation of public institutions, while ownership rests within the public domain. Promotion of the private sector implies the growth and expansion of the non-state sector in higher education, and very often this sector does not rely on state funding for its growth and expansion. Both of these measures have paved the way for market operations in higher education
