Creation and access to e-learning resources, including the most necessary and general approaches and structures used in the field of e-learning, recommendations on e-learning, a list and description of distance (e-learning) programs that use the capabilities of information and communication technologies (ICT) in modern education became an urgent problem. One of the important factors in harmonizing the national standards of Azerbaijan with the Bologna Declaration is the use of ICT in the education system as a tool to increase the effectiveness of education.

Academic Year

Since the academic year 2001/2002, the programme of studies at the Department of Geography, Tourism and Hotel Industry has been adjusted to the requirements of the Bologna Declaration. All the exams, including optional subject Animation in Tourism, during the studies are organised into one-semester exam, and obligatory student’s intership has been introduced. Animation in tourism with it's animation programmes, introduces very important segment in touristic offer of one destionation. In this way tourists are able to feel local atmosphere. Also, that is an original instrument to oblige them to have a significant role in creating the ’’genius loci’’. In the most hotels and restaurants, on a famous destinations, authentic food is served to guests in the course of animation programmes. The programme should be enriched with the folkloric caracteristics of one nation, which we want to represent to visitors. The main goal of this essay, with theory asppects and concrete examples, is to point out the importance of animation, as a considerable factor and new trend in a process of promoting the hotel product.

Web Based Education

A paradigm shift has taken place in the last decade, with a move from traditional to Web-based education at different educational levels (Harasim, 2000; Karuppan, 2001; Kilby, 2001). Web-based education (WBE) has moved on from the delivery of educational content to Web-based sites with interactive functions (Carty & Philip, 2001). Concurrently, new innovative kinds of pedagogical experiments have shifted the paradigm from teaching to learning (Pahl, 2003). As summarised by Armstrong (2001), what educators have in fact realised is that a good Web-based education theory and good education theory are one and the same; the only difference is that WBE transcends the barriers of space and time. The paradigmatic shift has occurred as part of planned educational policy, while at the same time good international or national experiences have also supported the growth of WBE. In addition, there have been attempts to have more coherent and cohesive educational systems and degrees especially in the European context (The Bologna Declaration, 1999.)

In the paper the industry role in the curricula of engineering education is examined. There are shown that the information obtained on industry developments trends, product export/import ratio as well as the level of investments injected into individual industry sub-sectors helps to make projections as to the number and profile of future professional staff; more specifically, as to the type of curriculum modules and the university acceptance level. Based on the information obtained from university graduates and managers from industrial enterprises as well as other authorities and summarized in an appropriate way, adequate corrections are introduced into the curriculum module without prejudice to regulations of the Government of the Republic Lithuania and to the provisions of the Bologna Declaration.

The process triggered by the Bologna Declaration has been producing significant results of various types in the EU Higher Education sector. After reviewing some of the consolidated outcomes of this process, reference is made to a novel trend that has emerged recently and which is geared towards the requirement that by 2020 all staff teaching in higher education institutions should have received certified pedagogical training. A description is provided of initiatives within the field of Engineering Education promoted by institutions that have been actively pursuing this precise objective for the past few decades.

Quo Vadis

The Bologna Declaration of 29 European Higher Education Ministers caused the most inventive change on the higher education sector all over Europe since more than 200 years. The objective was to create a common European Higher Education Area with permeability, higher transparency and acceptance of university degrees across Europe. Since the declaration’s signing in 1999, the bachelor and master’s degrees successively replaced the former study program system of European universities and quality assurance methods were implemented. 20 years after the signature of the agreement, it is time to look back. The authors analyzed advantages as well as disadvantages of the modifications in the German study program structure and other related changes from the current state of view. Furthermore, the paper will give information whether objectives of the Bologna Declaration have been met and where the expected success is still being missed. For that, the paper provides information about the current study structure in Germany, students’ statistics and development of academic mobility. Focus of the investigation was civil engineering programs as well as the resulting developments in universities’ and faculties’ management of German higher education institutions. The authors concluded that the main ideas of the Bologna Process found their way in the daily work of the universities. Nevertheless, the higher education reformation has not yet reached its aims.
