Education is the most important issue for nations. Higher education, among the educational process, is the most important determiner for the future of Nations. The ability of the nations to prosper and to thrive in an increasingly knowledge-based global society and economy largely depends on having a progressively well-educated population. The profound changes in the economy and the labor market in the past ten years and, consequently, in the competencies required by employers, have begun to have a serious impact on higher education institutions, whose primary mission is to qualify students by equipping them to meet the challenges ahead, both life and work. Challenges posed by globalization, fierce competition, frequent job changes, the growing need to create one's own job or to work outside one's home province or country, the importance of the appropriate behavior, new technologies, knowledge of English which is considered to be the medium of international communication and/or a second or third language became sine qua non which cannot be ignored by educational institutions and students. Close relationship between economics and the education for work force emerged as a result of this massive change caused in paying more emphasis to the philosophy of entrepreneurship and entrepreneurial culture and became one of the indispensable values of educational systems. Considering the "silo" type of education and teaching common in our schools, it becomes clearer how far we are away from the realities of the present time. This article discusses the basic topics such as: what is entrepreneurship? Why is entrepreneurship important? Is entrepreneurship a teachable skill? Why do we need entrepreneurial teaching and Faculty members?

The future of higher education is intrinsically linked with developments on new technologies and computing capacities of the new intelligent machines. In this field, advances in artificial intelligence open to new possibilities and challenges for teaching and learning in higher education with the potential to fundamentally change governance and the internal architecture of institutions of higher education. The role of technology in higher learning is to enhance human thinking and to augment the educational process, not to reduce it to a set of procedures for content delivery, control, and assessment. With the rise of AI solutions, it is increasingly important for educational institutions to stay alert and see if the power of control over hidden algorithms that run them is not monopolized by tech-lords. This chapter will cover all the positive and negative aspects of AI technologies on teaching, learning, and research in higher education.

The use of ICT in education has changed substantially over the last two decades. The development of new technologies has enabled us, the users, to mature and gain experience. The introduction of ICT in the educational process at the same time means a change of the teachers' role. The teacher appears in the role of a mentor who directs the activities of the learner. There has been a change in the teacher preparation to teach. He should provide both the content as well as technical support and to create a suitable learning environment. The way of teaching in the natural science and engineering education is specific due to the need of transfer knowledge into the practice. The nature of work in this kind of education requires more experimental work, based on individual learning process. There are many different implementation options of laboratory exercises that advantageously incorporate ICT into the nature of their work. The most popular in engineering education are two different types of laboratories: Simulation (virtual) and Remote controlled (online) labs, defined by Balamuralithara and Woods (2009). A remote controlled laboratory for conducting remote experiments at the University of Maribor, Faculty of Mechanical Engineering was developed. Development of the remote lab was carried out as an exploratory work of the group of students and professors. The lab was developed in the following three phases: development of the construction with corresponding technical documentation, development of the control system and development of the system for remote control of a lift. The successful student project is evident through the applicability of the developed laboratory that serves as a great tool for studying and offers all the benefits of ICT. Key words: experimental work, higher education, learning environment, pedagogy 1:1.

The Subject

The article traces the substantial and functional evolution of interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary knowledge and its integration into the theory and practice of higher education. The method of distinguishing between classical, non-classical, and post-non-classical rationality is used to disclose the specifics of university transdisciplinarity. The proposed hypothesis suggests that in non-classical and post-non-classical education, different types of studied objectivity exist while when the subject boundaries are fixed, various forms of subject uncertainty are observed. Difficulties in the practice of non-classical education are associated with the objective of overcoming double uncertainty. In one case, the onedimensionality of the study depends on the choice of ontological conditions that are only sufficient for a given monodiscipline. In another case, the task of combining the intervals of studying a subject in the framework of multidisciplinary knowledge is being solved. Transdisciplinarity manifests primarily through educational modeling technologies. What can be attributed to the specifics of post-non-classical education is the study of two types of objectivity: the system-level reality in cases of severe disequilibrium and the system-operational reality in cases of mild disequilibrium. Thus, the subject area demonstrates substantial and systemic uncertainty. It is concluded that the study of systemic objects as a part of the educational process requires interdisciplinary efforts and is carried out in line with the following scheme: problem – project – concept – practical solution.

Proposed Model

In most studies on professional identity (PI) of teachers, the subject of research is the PI of a school teacher; far less attention is paid to teachers working at higher education institutions (HEI). The aim of this article is to study the model of HEI teachers’ professional identity by a general comparative analysis of the indicators of its structural components in samples of Riga and Smolensk. The structural components of the proposed model are philosophy of the profession, professional knowledge, professional roles, professional attitude to work, cooperation with colleagues, professional engagement behaviors. To test the relevance of the model, a questionnaire was created with 60 items, and a survey of university teachers was carried out. In total, 198 teachers were surveyed in Riga and Smolensk. The obtained results show the relevance of the proposed model of teachers’ PI and the technique developed to study it. All the components of the model have high average scores and correlate well with each other. The lack of statistically significant differences in both survey samples points out that the PIs of teachers have much in common, regardless of the country of residence and features of the national educational systems. The elaborated technique can be applied as the tool of evaluation/self-evaluation of HEI teachers’ PI to improve the educational process.

Academic dishonesty can come in a variety of forms. Hence, there is a need for academics to stay abreast of the many and varied methods of cheating, and potentially, utilize an array of prevention and detection strategies in ‘combination'. This very dynamics of academic dishonesty, fails the very purpose of education, Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) and educational systems. If learners engage in academic dishonesty or malpractice either intentionally or unintentionally; it not only retards the learning and development, but more important raises questions on Academic Integrity (AI) of HEIs on which the whole edifice of educational process rests. Through grounded research, an in-depth literature review, deep observation, and being a part of HE for nearly two decades, this chapter delves into the causes of academic dishonesty. The focus is on the need and mechanism to institutionalize polices for AI, which the present hour demands.

This research aims to explore the political role of education in Indonesia and the problems encountered in its implementation and solutions to overcome. Close relationship Politics and education exist in a mutually related system in its implementation for improving the quality of education. Educators have always embraced politics because the educational process can provide value and contribute to political development. Having a high understanding of education politics is expected to contribute to controlling the direction of educational activities in Indonesia. The literature research method was used to obtain references related to the required data that is analyzed. It can be concluded that political viewpoint refers to the relationship between politics and government policies due to Indonesia's educational systems, strategies, and techniques. Various regulations, decrees, rules, administrative actions in education are part of the evidence of the political role of policies for education. Another view of politics is politics as a process, how the political performance takes place. This approach is more complex in concept and requires understanding how government processes work and how human behavior affects all these processes as a culture.
