Education Process

Abstract The primary goal of an advanced degree program is to educate and train the next generation of professionals. The education process must include historical exposure to past challenges and resolutions to enhance the development of creative thinking and problem solving skills. If this is not done, the resolution of recurring and new challenges will be minimal. Blind acceptance of “gold standards,” or the development of research techniques that are not economically based, minimize the progress is gained in each new generation. The presentation will address methods of preparing students for industry research challenges.

Higher Order Problem

Marketing educators have long espoused the importance of critical thinking as a means of developing students’ higher-order problem-solving skills. In this article, we utilize an historical approach to investigate how educators have defined, operationalized, and empirically evaluated the critical thinking construct. To accomplish this, we review the critical thinking literature from three prominent marketing education journals and the leading management education journal. In doing so, we summarize extant critical thinking research across varied pedagogical topics, review empirical findings, and present a conceptual framework for motivating future research.

Problem-solving ability is an essential part of daily life. Thus, curiosity and a thirst for knowledge should be cultivated in students to help them develop problem solving and independent thinking skills. Along with positive attitudes and an active disposition, these abilities are needed to solve problems throughout the lifespan and develop -confidence. To achieve educational objectives in the context of globalization, creative ability is necessary for generating competitive advantages. Therefore, creative thinking, critical thinking, and problem-solving ability are important basic competencies needed for future world citizens. Creativity should also be integrated into subject teaching to cultivate students' lifelong learning and a creative attitude toward life. A questionnaire was distributed to 420 students in colleges and universities in Fujian, China. After removing invalid and incomplete responses, 363 copies were found to be valid yielding a response rate of 86%. Findings indicate that the new generation requires high levels of support to develop creativity and integrate diverse subjects such as nature, humanities, and technology. A rich imagination is needed to root creativity in the new generation.

AbstractIntroduction: In this article, we want to point out what kind of pedagogical and didactic change is being recorded in Slovakia’s education system and we will point out where it could go and develop to achieve positive results. This article is one of the upcoming outputs in the form of paper and study on the provision of structured, analytical and critical thinking (SAC). In the article, it is shown how the situation has changed and how we perceive the attitude of students during the educational process. Next, it is described current problems and inadequacies in the educational process and define how to use a change of thinking to increase motivation and improve access to knowledge.Purpose: In general, there is a consensus that it is important for teachers to be able to guide their students to problem-solving skills (Aktaş & Ünlü, 2013). It is pointed out that, with the right educational tools, such skills can be stimulated, developed and improved (Jordaan & Jordaan, 2005). This article is designed for all levels of education, but we are mostly concerned with educating future educators.Methods: In this paper, there are described methods that can help to improve the quality of thinking of students and thus increase the level of thinking of the whole society. This article take inspiration from important historical personalities as well as relevant current personalities in their professions. Critical, analytical and creative thinking, also based on logical and structured thinking, is our main method of our educational process.Conclusion: In conclusion, it is pointed out the need to develop SAC as a whole. It is important for the general publica to have better skills in SAC, for example, from the point of view of cognitive mistakes in experts, in the field of political literacy, recognition of misinformation and a better general awareness of rational thinking. As can be seen, SAC is not only about education, but it also closely affects society as a whole. It can thus influence the operation of the company, prevent the development of the first-class solutions offered and raise the whole company to a higher level.

Целью работы является проектирование индивидуальных образовательных маршрутов исследовательской составляющей аспирантской подготовки в России на базе учета позитивного опыта европейской докторантуры. Достижения российской аспирантуры и европейской докторантуры рассматривались с помощью метода сравнительного анализа. В основу указанного проектирования положены системный и компетентностный подходы, использовались методы моделирования и проектирования. При построении образовательных маршрутов аспирантов использовался метод структурных графов. В результате проведенного исследования выявлен позитивный опыт организации зарубежной докторской подготовки и дан вариант проектирования структуры и содержания программы подготовки аспирантов. На примере университетов ряда стран предложены введение зачетных единиц на исследовательскую часть образовательной составляющей отечественной аспирантской программы подготовки, а также оценка стоимости определенных видов исследовательских действий. Разработаны варианты образовательных маршрутов исследовательской части подготовки аспирантов по естественно-математическому, инженерно-техническому и социально-гуманитарному направлениям. Результаты исследования дают возможность на основе введения зачетных единиц в исследовательскую часть аспирантской подготовки выработать критериальную систему оценки готовности аспирантов к итоговой аттестации. Разработанные варианты образовательных маршрутов позволяют более продуктивно осуществлять реализацию в целом аспирантской подготовки. The aim of the work is to design the structure and content of postgraduate programs in Russia at the third level of higher education based on the positive experience of European doctoral studies. Achievements of European and Russian doctoral studies were examined using the comparative analysis method. The design of the structure and content of postgraduate training programs is based on a systematic approach, modeling and design methods were used. The method of structural graphs was used to build educational routes for graduate students. As a result of the study, positive experience in organizing foreign doctoral training was revealed and a design option for the structure and content of the graduate student training program was given. On the example of universities in a number of countries, the following are proposed: the introduction of credit units on the research part of the educational component of the domestic postgraduate training program, as well as the assessment of the cost of certain types of research activities.

In recent years, calls to nurture and teach creativity from an early age in schools has intensified. Creativity is something regular in the teaching of arts subjects but is not a common feature in teaching science, technology, engineering and mathematics subjects. However, what really matters, is how the subject is being taught. This research aimed to foster creativity through the teaching of mathematics via problem solving that challenges the solving of problems in a creative manner, which is defined as creative problem solving. This quasi-experimental study investigates changes in students learning of mathematics via creative problem solving. Altogether, 172 Form 1 students forming treatment and comparison groups from four schools in Gombak District area, Malaysia were involved. A mixed qualitative and quantitative data were collected to investigate the effect of the 3 cycles of creative problem solving lessons implemented. Instruments used were Torrance Test of Creative Thinking, a mathematics problem solving test and creativity checklist. This paper will only present the quantitative data obtained. Results show statistically significant increases in scores for most categories of creativity and problem solving tests. This research brought together teachers and researchers in trialling creative problem solving to teach mathematics, to achieve the enhancement of students’ creative thinking and problem solving skills. This coincided with the introduction of Kurikulum Standard Sekolah Menengah with new emphasis to strengthen the quality of science, technology, engineering and mathematics education in general, where higher-order thinking reforms are emphasized.

Emergence and development of cloud computing, mobile Internet, and other relative technologies speed up the reform process of data center. The increasing demand on internet band width, diversity of Internet businesses, and Individualization of service delivery, etc. are imposing higher demands on the new-generation data center. Faced with the increasingly complicated Internet environment, traditional IP-based data center Internet structure has gradually exposed its limitations. In order to adapt to future Internet businesses, people engaged in this industry hold a mainstream opinion that “it’s time to give creative thinking over the basic structure of the Internet and adopt new design concept of the” and begin to pose high requirements on the features and functions of the future Internet system and structure. In recent years, emergence of software defined network (SDN) has provided a direction for development of future Internet. The idea of SDN originates in the Clean Stater4J Project, and with the in-depth development and research of technologies, the SDN structure has gone out of the laboratory and successfully stepped into the industrial circle. Having received wide recognition from both the academic and the industrial fields, the industrialization process of SDN and the standardization process of relative technologies have been pushed forward.
