The intent of this paper is to analyse the correlation between student engagement and course experience as a mechanism for improvement of the quality of undergraduate education. Traditionally, research focused separately on student engagement or course experience but it is to be argued that the later can be perceived as a mediating variable onto assessing student engagement as a tool for measurement and improvement of the undergraduate education. Additionally, is to be argued that the critique upon the student engagement and course experience concepts contributes to their further development.

AbstractIntroduction:Behavioral and social science research suggests that job satisfaction and job performance are positively correlated. It is important that Emergency Medical Services managers identify predictors of job satisfaction in order to maximize job performance among prehospital personnel.Purpose:Identify job stressors that predict the level of job satisfaction among prehospital personnel.Methods:The study was conducted with in a large, urban Emergency Medical Services (Emergency Medical Services) service performing approximately 60,000 Advanced Life Support (Advanced Life Support) responses annually. Using focus groups and informal interviews, potential predictors of global job satisfaction were identified. These factors included: interactions with hospital nurses and physicians; on-line communications; dispatching; training provided by the ambulance service; relationship with supervisors and; standing orders as presently employed by the ambulance service. These factors were incorporated into a 21 item questionnaire including one item measuring global job satisfaction, 14 items measuring potential predictors of satisfaction, and seven questions exploring demographic information such as age, gender, race, years of experience, and years with the company. The survey was administered to all paramedics and Emergency Medical Technicians (Emergency Medical Technicians s) Results of the survey were analyzed using univariate and multivariate techniques to identify predictors of global job satisfaction.Results:Ninety paramedics and Emergency Medical Technicians participated in the study, a response rate of 57.3%. Job satisfaction was cited as extremely satisfying by 11%, very satisfying by 29%, satisfying by 45%, and not satisfying by 15% of respondents. On univariate analysis, only the quality of training, quality of physician interaction, and career choice were associated with global job satisfaction. On multivariate analysis, only career choice (p = 0.005) and quality of physician interaction (p = 0.05) were predictive of global job satisfactionConclusion:Quality of career choice and interactions with physicians are predictive of global job satisfaction within this urban emergency medical service (Emergency Medical Technicians). Future studies should examine specific characteristics of the physician-paramedic interface that influence job satisfaction and attempt to generalize these results to other settings.

It has also proved itself popular in higher vocational education in recent years, in which foreign teachers are undertaking the task of teaching some specialized courses. The teaching by foreign teachers has certain irreplaceable advantages, but nonnegligible disadvantages as well. Questionnaires have been distributed to the students majoring in Landscape Engineering from Shanghai Urban Construction College to investigate the teaching of specialized courses by foreign teachers. Based on the statistics, the advantages and disadvantages of their teaching have been analyzed, and several suggestions on how to adopt the good points and avoid the shortcomings are offered, so as to improve the quality of Sino-foreign cooperative education in higher vocational college.

The basics of accounting are very important for someone who will do business. Therefore, we conduct counseling to students, as well as motivate them about choosing a career related to the science they are pursuing for their future in choosing which major and university to go to. Since the 2020 Pandemic, all schools use an online learning system, so we want to provide counseling to high school students about the basics of accounting, as well as provide information about professions that can be taken into consideration after graduating from school. As prospective students, they must know a very promising profession for their future. This introduction can be a factor in their career choice. This is what drives us, in introducing a promising profession for the future. Then a follow-up was carried out by making a statement of cooperation from Mr. Joseph Setiawan as the Principal of the Almasih Christian High School. This activity was carried out through zoom, followed by high school students majoring in science and social studies, which could provide knowledge and insight for them. The results of this activity can increase the intention of school students to continue to college, coupled with support from schools and parents. So that it can improve the quality of human resources to become useful individuals for the nation and state. The results achieved in this activity encourage their interest to enter college in the accounting field. Dasar-dasar akuntansi sangat penting bagi seseorang yang akan melakukan usaha. Oleh karena itu, kami melakukan penyuluhan kepada siswa dan siswi, serta metivasi mereka tentang pemilihan karir yang berhubungan dengan ilmu yang ditekuni bagi masa depan mereka dalam memilih jurusan dan universitas mana yang akan dituju. Sejak Pandemi tahun 2020, semua sekolah menggunakan sistem pembelajaran online, sehingga kami ingin memberikan penyuluhan kepada siswa-siswi SMA mengenai dasar-dasar akuntansi, serta memberikan informasi mengenai profesi yang dapat menjadi bahan pertimbangan setelah lulus dari sekolah. Sebagai calon mahasiswa, mereka harus mengenal profesi yang sangat menjanjikan bagi masa depan mereka. Pengenalan ini dapat menjadi salah satu faktor dalam pemilihan karir mereka. Hal inilah yang mendorong kami, dalam memperkenalkan profesi yang menjanjikan buat masa depan. Maka dilakukan tindak lanjut dengan membuat surat pernyataan kerjasama dari Bapak Joseph Setiawan selaku Kepala Sekolah Menengah Atas Kristen Almasih. Kegiatan ini dilakukan melalui zoom dengan diikuti oleh siswa dan siswi SMA jurusan IPA dan IPS, yang dapat memberikan pengetahuan dan wawasan bagi mereka. Hasil kegiatan ini dapat meningkatkan niat siswa-siswi sekolah untuk melanjutkan ke perguruan tinggi, ditambah dengan dukungan dari sekolah dan orang tua. Sehingga dapat meningkatkan kualitas sumber daya manusia menjadi pribadi yang berguna bagi bangsa dan negara.
