A high-quality education is the key to individual opportunities. It makes people more open to changing behavior and is at the same time the basis for innovation and a condition for the sustainable development of the Earth. Education is a human rightit enables people to improve their political, social, cultural, and economic situation. Every child has the right to education; every person has the right to have his or her basic learning needs metfor a lifetime. However, every day we encounter predictable and unpredictable obstacles in the implementation of quality teaching. Classes in schools, training institutions and universities could not be maintained as usual during the pandemic. The victims of this are children, young people, trainees, and students who also have to struggle with psychosocial stress. However, the thesis we are dealing with refers to the quality in higher education from a general point of view, independent of the challenges currently encountered by higher education institutions. We carried out research regarding the quality of teaching at several universities in North Macedonia, with the emphasis being on the consequences of online teaching during the pandemic, as well as on the way universities are dealing with the negative consequences of the lack of readiness of educational institutions and the unpreparedness of the teaching staff for distance learning. Our goal in this paper is to present current problems and potential solutions that would contribute to overcoming gaps in the education of university students and establishing quality higher education.

The purpose of my research is to increase the visibility of intersecting identities of LGBTQ+ Latinx students within Latinx student organizations at the University of San Diego. This visibility would signify acceptance within the organizations and student's self-acceptance and personal development. My research questions are: How can I increase awareness of the intersecting Latinx and LGBTQ+ identities within Latinx student organizations? How can I better support student leaders to create safe and brave spaces for Latinx LGBTQ+-identifying students? The outcome of the research was that the culture of Latinx student organizations shifted to acknowledge the lived experiences of intersecting LGBTQ+ identities.

The Things We Take With Us: The cover picture depicts a homoeopathic medical kit, circa 1870. In 1874 the Massachusetts Homeopathic Hospital moved into a newlybuilt Talbot Building in Boston's South End. It later abandoned homeopathic practices, and in 1929 became part of Massachusetts Memorial Hospital. This was eventually merged into the Boston University Medical Center, now part of Boston Medical Center. The Talbot Building now houses the

The  article  aims  to  understand  whether  the  organizational  culture  transmitted  through organizational socialization tactics adopted in trainee programs is congruent with Generation Z's attributes. The study adopts  a  qualitative  approach,  conducting  a  group  interview  with  trainees  and  13  semi-structured individual  interviews  with  trainees,  managers  responsible  for  trainee  programs,  and  specialized consultants.  The  results  showed  that  organizational  socialization  tactics  transmit  and  reinforce organizational  culture  and  that  newcomers  need  to  adjust  to  an  unfamiliar  environment,  take  on  new roles,  and  learn  core  cultural  elements.  Organizations  should  adapt  socialization  tactics  to  transmit organizational culture to Generation Z efficiently.

Розкриті такі його аспекти, як участь Надзвичайної дипломатичної місії (НДМ) УНР в Румунії у створенні громадських організацій, діяльність Філії Українського товариства прихильників Ліги Націй, Української громади в Бухаресті, Товариства бувших вояків Армії УНР та інші. Проте поза увагою дослідників залишилося питання участі українських емігрантів у роботі українських студентських організацій у Румунії в міжвоєнний період. Окреслимо лише деякі аспекти цієї проблеми

Background Students at Worcester Polytechnic Institute (WPI) face a fast-pace and challenging schedule with a curriculum comprised of four 7-week terms, resulting in taking final exams four times a year. Library staff expressed concern over student wellbeing through out various stressful time periods throughout the year and were interested in finding ways to help provide ways to help students relieve stress. Additionally, Library staff had observed students using quiet, low traffic areas in the stacks for prayer, in particular Muslim students observing the daily call to prayers from midday through late night hours. Students indicated a lack of a space outside of their residence hall room in which to engage in their daily faith tradition. Staff recognized a need to provide students with a safe, quiet space where they knew they would be welcome to engage in their chosen prayer, meditation or reflective practice.

This paper offers an analysis of the 2021 Netflix mini-series The Chair, a dramedy whose authors sought to give an "authentic" depiction, but also a cultural critique, of the functioning of a contemporary US university and US higher education. The series includes four important elements of higher education – the institution of the university, its administration, university staff (professors/lecturers), and the student population; due to the format of the series, however, these elements have not been given equal attention. Furthermore, through the story of a woman of color at a university who suddenly finds herself in the position of department chair, this six-part mini-series addresses and/or elaborates on a whole set of messages and issues with which the wider audience can identify – an audience interested in questions regarding universities, the humanities, and wider social issues such as gender, race, age and class (in)equalities in academia, and also in western society...

Campus Recreation and its programs can be used as a way to combat the national trends of decreasing enrollment and retention (Weaver, Forte, & McFadden, 2017; Kampf & Teske, 2013). In fact, 62% of students indicate that Campus Recreation programs are a factor when choosing an institution and 67% indicate that recreation programs were a factor when deciding to stay at a particular institution (Forrester, 2014). As a program within Campus Recreation, Club Sports specifically is perceived to have the greatest health and wellbeing benefits out of all Campus Recreation programming (Lower, Turner, & Petersen, 2013). Due to the voluntary nature of Club Sports, Transformational Leadership (Bass, 1985) may be the most prevalent leadership style (Chan & Mak, 2014). The purpose of this study is to determine if Club Sport Presidents exhibit Transformational Leadership characteristics. The Global Transformational Leadership Survey (Carless et al., 2000) was sent to all Club Sport members. Fall ‘...

Fraternal organizations have existed on campus since the founding of Phi Beta Kappa in 1776 (Baird, 1991; DeSantis, 2007; Phi Beta Kappa, n.d.; Thelin, 2011; Torbenson, 2005, 2009). Empirical evidence shows that membership brings added value to an undergraduate student experience (Biddix et al., 2014; G. D. Kuh & Lyons, 1990). However, there is also scholarship indicating that fraternal organizations often emphasize socializing over academics while their members participate in overt racism, sexism, and exclusivity (Brubacher & Rudy, 1976; Maisel, 1990). This study examined undergraduate business student access and status using Astin’s theory of student involvement (A. W. Astin, 1984) and Bourdieu’s concept of habitus and theory of social reproduction (Bourdieu, 1977). Using a phenomenological approach, the study was conducted within the Gies College of Business at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. This study identified aspects of the student experience, including profe...

Progressive student movements have always been vigilant toward the pressing issues of the time. This tradition could be traced to the period of anti-colonial struggle which actually produced the organised student movement in the country. Therefore, the political slogans and organisational engagements of the progressive student movement have always been shaped by its creative engagements and courageous struggles. This time, SFI has decided to mark the conference with the slogan, ‘educate all, employ all, unite all’. The conference slogan is self-explanatory of the priorities of the student movement.

Современите системи за регулација на пумпните станици со повеќе пумпи потребно е да обезбедат константен и постојан притисок при променлив проток, избегнување на осцилации и промена на притисокот при вклучување на пумпите, меко стартување на пумпите со што се елиминираат механичките оштетувања, едноставен начин на поставување на параметрите и дијагностицирање на инсталацијата, избегнување на нестабилен режим на работа на пумпите (пумпање), избегнување на кавитационен режим на пумпите, економично решение. Исполнување на наведените барања во реалните системи не е можно без систем за автоматска регулација со повратна врска. Во практична примена најголем број на пумпни станици работат со: • Каскадна регулација која е пропратена со осцилации на притисокот. • Континуирана регулација на една пумпа, вклучување и исклучување на останатите пумпи во зависност од притисокот и протокот кој ги бара инсталацијата. Во трудот се предлага решение за поквалитетна работа на пумпните станици со еден фре...

Постојат многу студии за примена на сензорските мрежи во различни области, како полјоделство, следење на животната средина, здравствена заштита, итн. Идеата на овој проект е да се креираат сензорски мрежи за следење на условите во винариите, како и климатските условите при одгледувањето на грозјето. Складираните сензорски податоци може да се анализираат со цел да се открие корелација меѓу надгледуваните параметри од средината и добиениот квалитет на виното. Со примена на техниките за кластерирање, класификација и методите од машинско учење ќе се креира систем кој врз основа на параметрите ќе донесува интелигентни одлуки за одредени активности кои треба да се преземат при одгледувањето на грозјето или при процесот на производство на вино. На пример, податоците од мерењата се важни за донесување на одлуки при одгледувањето на грозјето, како термин за ѓубрење, примена на хемиски средства или наводнување на почвата. Очекуваме дека податоците собрани при користење на системот ќе бидат ко...

Ревизијата претставува процес на собирање на ревизорски докази со цел да се утврди дали финансиските извештаи се подготвени врз основа на меѓународните сметководствени стандарди кои се прифатливи кај нас. Процесот на ревизијата се врши од страна на овластен ревизор кој има лиценца за вршење на ревизијата. Секој не може да биде ревизoр, a доколку некој сака да биде потребно е претходно да има доволно работно искуство во областа на ревизијата или пак во областа на сметководството и треба да полага испити коишто се утврдени од страна на Државниот завод за ревизија. Доколку ги положи испитите и ако го има потребното работно искуство тогаш Државниот завод за ревизија ќе му издаде лиценца за вршење на ревизија

Организацијата за да постигне добри резултати во работењето секогаш мора да има подготвени и мотивирани работници. Мотивацијата, гледано од аспект на успехот на една организација, е од голема важност за постигнување на поставените цели. Иако постојат различни теории за мотивација и ниво на мотивација, важно е да се забележи дека секоја организација прво мора да ја препознае важноста на мотивирањето на своите вработени. Надоместоците на вработените, како основен мотивациски фактор, се поврзани со резултатите од работата, а некои со самата организација. Паралелно со материјалните надоместоци, кои ја формираат основата на системот на мотивација, неопходно е да се развие и систем на нематеријални стимулации за работа, кои ги задоволуваат различните потреби на вработените во организациите, како почит, статус, флексибилност во работното време, пофалби и сл

Leonard J. Rosen defines academic writing as an “informed, logical, clear, well structured, and based on evidence” (Rosen, 2009) prose style which serves to describe, understand, and further investigate the world around us. Academic writing rests upon common standards of logic and clarity which enable writers to enter into a conversation through their writing. Developing effective writing skills for academic purposes is a crucial aspect of higher education. These skills are indispensable for the students since they affect their overall academic success, but also their life outside the university. The present paper deals with the challenges of developing effective writing skills for academic purposes in the Macedonian language in students in the Republic of North Macedonia. It presents a part of the findings of a five-year research conducted at the higher education institution University American College Skopje (UACS). The aim of the research is to explore the gap between the expecte...

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.

Фоербах (Ludwig Feuerbach / 1804–1872) знаел да каже дека, во целокупната европска историја, постојат три книги кои никогаш не смеат да се турнат во заборав: христијанската Biblia, Jустинијановиот Corpus Iuris Civilis Romani и Марксовиот Das Kapital – бидејќи токму од нив „најмногу се храни човештвото“. Можеби затоа и секој обид за критика кон овие колосални дела, макар и да претендира да го носи епитетот „научен“, треба да се пишува со рака која трепери. А токму намерата на овој труд, кој барем во македонски прилики е пионерски за темата на која се однесува, е преку еден историско-компаративен и логичко-телеолошки пристап да го истражи досега запоставеното прашање: Како е можно, за толку кратко време (околу шест години) да се создаде едно вакво грандиозно правно дело, кое е скоро трипати поголемо од Светото Писмо, т.е. од Стариот и Новиот Завет заедно? Нашата цел е, скромно и непретенциозно, само да додадеме длабочина на она што досега беше разочарувачки плитка дебата за начинот и приликите во кои всушност настанала прочуената т.н. „Јустинијанова кодификација“ (VI век). Притоа, главната линија на аргументација е дека правниците кои тогаш биле повикани да го одработат ова монументално кодификаторско дело, се потпирале на солидна граѓа од веќе претходно создадени законици и правни збирки кои, пак, биле користени при правната едукација на Високите правни школи кои постоеле низ тогашниот Источен дел на Империјата.
