The aim of this study is to determine the needs of Ege University (EU) students regarding orientation and academic consultancy services. The population (N=48975) of the study consists of students studying on EU Bornova Campus in 2012-2013 academic year; and the sample (n=1387) was chosen using an appropriate sampling method among the newly enrolled preparatory school students and first graders (n=8177) and among students who attend EU from 1st grade to 6th grade (n=40798). The newly enrolled students (n=352) and those continuing their education (n=1035) in the sample are students of 12 faculties, 4 high schools and 3 vocational high schools. Newly enrolled students were given questionnaires on orientation while the questionnaires handed out to students continuing their education focused on academic consultancy. The questionnaires were applied at two separate times. First questionnaires were given between May 5 and May 23, 2012; and the second run was between November 15 and January 15, 2013 with different students. According to the findings regarding orientation needs; at the beginning of the semester when the first group of questionnaires was handed out, students may have attached importance to needs like accommodation and health and wished to reach information on their departments quickly. Towards the end of the fall semester, on the other hand, they might have needed to get information about personal development for themselves. As for the findings about personal development; it could be said that newly enrolled students attach importance to career planning skills and several issues of personal development (dealing with stress, making decisions, effective time management, etc.). Students continuing their education may have had needs in this direction, albeit fewer in number. According to academic consultancy findings; EU students may not be satisfied with academic consultancy services provided in a general sense and it can be asserted that students do not benefit from their academic consultants very much. ÖzetBu araştırmanın amacı, Ege Üniversitesi (EÜ) öğrencilerinin oryantasyon ve akademik danışmanlık hizmetleri ile ilgili gereksinimlerini belirlenmektir. Araştırmanın evrenini (N=48975) EÜ Bornova Yerleşkesi’nde 2012-2013 eğitim-öğretim yılında öğrenim gören öğrenciler, örneklemi (n = 1387) ise üniversiteye yeni kayıt yaptıran hazırlık ve birinci sınıf öğrencileri (n=8177) arasından ve 1. sınıftan başlayarak 6. sınıfa değin EÜ’de öğrenimlerine devam eden öğrenciler (n=40798) arasından uygun örnekleme yoluyla seçilen öğrenciler oluşturmuşlardır. Örneklemdeki yeni kayıt yaptıran öğrenciler (n=352) ile öğrenimlerine devam eden öğrenciler (n=1035) 12 fakülte, 4 yüksekokul ve 3 meslek yüksekokulu öğrencileridir. Öğrenimlerine yeni başlayan öğrencilere oryantasyon, öğrenimlerine devam eden öğrencilere ise akademik danışmanlıkla ilgili anket uygulanmıştır. Uygulanan anketler iki farklı zamanda uygulanmışlardır. Birinci uygulamalar 5 Mayıs – 25 Mayıs 2012 tarihleri arasında ve ikinci uygulamalar 15 Kasım – 15 Ocak 2013 tarihleri arasında farklı öğrencilere yapılmıştır. Oryantasyon gereksinimi ile ilgili bulgulara göre; birinci uygulamaların yapıldığı dönem başlarında öğrenciler barınma-sağlık gibi temel gereksinimlerine önem vermiş ve bölümleriyle ilgili bilgileri hızla öğrenmek istemiş, güz döneminin sonuna doğru ise kendilerini geliştirmeye yönelik bilgileri öğrenmeye daha çok gereksinim duymuş olabilirler. Kişisel gelişimle ilgili bulgulara göre özellikle yeni kayıt yaptıran öğrencilerin kariyer planlama becerileri ve çeşitli kişisel gelişim konularına (stresle başetme, girişkenlik, karar verme, etkili zaman yönetimi gibi) önem verdikleri söylenebilir. Daha az olmakla birlikte, öğrenimlerine devam eden öğrencilerin de bu yönde gereksinimleri olduğu söylenebilir. Akademik danışmanlık gereksinimi ile ilgili bulgulara göre; genel olarak, EÜ öğrencilerinin akademik danışmanlık hizmetlerinden memnun olmadıkları ve öğrencilerin akademik danışmanlarından çok yararlanamadıkları söylenebilir.

Future Career

As a dynamic transformation of the economy, companies put pressure on universities and other educational suppliers to deliver the labor force with new knowledge and skills required, to ensure their innovation and competitiveness. Because of these dynamics, students are also under pressure when they must decide about future jobs. There is also confusion in the mind of young adult that needs to bear the influence of public media, social media, online communities about the personal development in regional, national, or global environment. In this case, universities and high schools have to inform about trends and perspectives of future career and support students in their choice but they lack of communication capabilities or marketing aspects are overestimated. Our study is based on an online survey with more than 500 participants from Mures county high schools during the 2018-2019 academic year. Most of the student wants to continue their study at university 83,2 %. As a preferential channel of information about university programs students voted as very useful, university websites and meetings with representatives of faculties. The main fields students interested in are: business, engineering, informatics, medicine, public administration and law. Around 13.4% of the high school students intend to continue their study abroad. Almost half of the respondents have clear idea of study program to be chosen. Regarding the influence factors of their choice, family and acquaintances who are already university students have the higher impact rather than colleagues, friends and professors. When referring to criteria for choosing the future university, they favor the number of tax-free places and international mobility. Generally, we can say that students consider university the most important next step in their future career and they proof themselves rather independent to decide about this step. Our study also emphasizes significant levels of indecision and we will deepen our further research for better understanding of the phenomenon.

<p><em>History learning in Senior High Schools and Vocational High Schools is carried out almost the same, both obtaining mandatory history with the aim of studying the history of the nation. Meanwhile, studying history in Senior High Schools contains additional material for the history of specialization. The existence of differences in environment, meaning and purpose makes students less interested and meaningful in learning which results in history learning running less optimally. For this reason, this paper aims to make historical learning relevant to the learning field of Vocational Middle School students, one of which is by utilizing local material in areas close to the environment and even the vocational school. One of them is the use of local materials for the Cepu Oil and Gas Vocational Middle School students, namely the history of Dutch oil exploration in Cepu. This study uses a literature study research method, the authors use a humanistic approach to analyze the relevance of learning materials to the learning environment and the interests or vocational of students. The focus of this research is on discussing history learning in Vocational High Schools and the use of historical material on Dutch oil exploration in Cepu as a learning resource. So that studying history will be relevant and meaningful in accordance with the vocational.</em></p>

This project evaluated educational and educational/social interventions to prevent tobacco use in three private, southern high schools. In the fall of 2001, 393 students completed the Youth Tobacco Survey (YTS); in the spring of 2002, 412 completed the YTS. At one school, teachers received training in tobacco prevention and curriculum-integrated materials (E-Only). At another school, teachers received the same training; in addition, the schools offered clubs after school that involved health promotion activities including programs, outside speakers, opportunities to teach younger youth, and advocacy training (E+Social). At a third school, students had classes as usual. Both fall and spring, students intended to avoid tobacco, and realized that peers disapprove. However, an interaction indicated that, though most students' attitudes deteriorated over the academic year, E+Social held steady. Results imply that prevention efforts that include education plus a social component can counteract the deterioration in tobacco attitudes that happens among private school 15-year-olds.

The subject of this paper is vocational education in vocational high schools in Poland and its aim is to argue that presently vocational high schools fail at providing their students with qualifications necessary to work in their profession of choice. The problem is important as the unemployment rate among young people is high while the employers claim there is a deficit of qualified workforce on the labour market. The paper presents the results of a survey carried out among vocational high school students which showed that 95 % of students believe that 4 weeks of apprenticeships is insufficient. Given the opinions of the employers and the results of the survey among the vocational high school students, it seems surprising that the changes made to the vocational core curriculum were not more substantial.

There has been limited research on depressive symptoms among high school students in St. Kitts and Nevis. This project examines levels of depressive symptoms among fourth form (grade 10) students attending all high schools in St. Kitts and Nevis. Students enrolled in the fourth form during the 2006/2007 academic year in all high schools were administered the Beck Depression Inventory II (BDI-II). A near census of the students was conducted (n = 744 students; 50.4% females, 47.6% males, and 2% no gender reported; age 13–19 years, mean = 15.5 ± 0.8 years). Six in every ten students (62.1%) reported some symptoms of depression, with 14.8% reporting moderate to severe and 9.7% reporting severe symptoms of depression. Females reported significantly higher BDI-II scores (t(727)= 7.11,p< 0.01) with 70% of females reporting some level of depressive symptoms compared with 52% of their male counterparts (X2(1) = 24.6,p< 0.05). Additionally, 34% of females were in the moderate to severe or severe range of depressive symptoms, while 15% of males were in the same range. Students who were older than expected for their grade (i.e., 17 years or older) reported significantly higher BDI-II scores (F(2,740) = 2.88,p< 0.05) than students who were younger or at the expected age (i.e., 14–16 years). Students whose mothers had a high school or postsecondary education reported significantly lower levels of depressive symptoms than students whose mothers had less than a high school education (F(3, 637), = 4.23,p< 0.05). Symptoms of depression among fourth form students in St. Kitts and Nevis are a prevalent problem that is influenced by students’ age, gender, and social class as indicated by maternal education.
