After finishing the university, students usually do not know what to do. Most of them cannot find a job. Based on our mentality, working is considered by the student an employment with a salary, mainly in public sector or in private sector based on the diploma university. If this does not function, the graduated student calls him/herself unemployed and does not hope for his future. Salary employment is not and cannot be the only solution in everyone’s life. If a student is graduated and cannot find a job based on a salary, he/she may use his/her abilities about entrepreneurship that he/she has learnt at university. To be self-employed does not need the condition o having a diploma in economic studies. Everyone that has a diploma and who does not have a job based on a salary, may be a successful self-employed. A very important role is the entrepreneurship learning during studies. Such an education would be necessary for all the students in all university branches. To know how much our students know about entrepreneurship and which are their needs in relation to the entrepreneurship, there are analyzed and concluded questionnaires and interviews with 283 students of Education Sciences in “Aleksandër Xhuvani” University, Elbasan.

The study is aimed at theoretical substantiation, development and experimental testing of methods of applying mobile technologies by university students. The objectives of the study imply adapting mobile testing systems and mobile means of multimedia development for using in the classroom environment at universities. The research object is application of mobile ICT to the educational process. The research subject is methods of applying mobile testing systems and mobile means to conduct practical classes at the University. The studies of Ukrainian and foreign researchers dedicated to the question of using mobile ICT for the university educational process were analyzed. Mobile testing systems are defined as a variety of mobile software support aimed firstly to measure students’ academic results, which enables to automatize the process of both current and final control through applying modern testing means, and secondly to intensify the educational process comprehensively. It is found that mobile means of multimedia development are to fulfill the principles of multimedia, space vicinity, time contiguity, coherence, modality, excessiveness, personalization, interactivity signalization and individual distinctions. The authors have developed the methods of applying mobile testing systems by taking Plickers system, as the one providing the opportunity to arrange a rapid feedback between a lecturer and both an academic group and an individual student. The system also allows conducting mobile surveys, in- class general questioning and instant control of students’ attendance. The authors have developed methods of applying mobile tools of multimedia development through using augmented reality. The comparative assessment of functionality of mobile testing systems and mobile means of developing augmented reality multimedia was held. Efficiency of the developed technology was experimentally tested and confirmed.

O presente trabalho concerne em uma revisão integrativa de literatura, de caráter qualitativo e quantitativo, que culminou em resultados que demonstra as causas e o predomínio de ansiedade e depressão em universitários dos cursos da área da saúde. Realizou- se uma busca dos artigos na base de dados: Scientific Electronic Library Online (SCIELO), e google scholar, disponíveis no idioma português no período de 2016 a 2021. O resultado da pesquisa bibliográfica, após aplicar rigorosamente os fundamentos de inclusão e exclusão, foi a seleção de 9 artigos. A bibliografia demonstrou que acadêmicos tendem a ter até 20% mais viabilidade de desenvolver o dado problema se comparado a população geral. O aumento de demandas, associados à pressão, estresse, saída da residência dos familiares, são fatores que colabora para essa problemática. A psicologia alinhada com terapia pode suavizar a pressão para que a vivência na universidade não seja negativa, pois, por meio do autognosia (conhecimento de si próprio), o aluno distende habilidades que podem amparar no manuseio dos seus próprios conflitos.---The present study concerns an integrative literature review, qualitative and quantitative, which culminated in results that demonstrate as causes and the predominance of anxiety and depression in university students in health care courses. The following articles were searched in the database: Scientific Electronic Library Online (SCIELO), and academic google, available in Portuguese from 2016 to 2021. The result of the bibliographic search, after rigorously applying the inclusion and exclusion fundamentals, was the selection of 9 articles. The bibliography indexes that academics tend to have up to 20% more feasibility of developing the given problem compared to the general population. The increase in demands, associated with pressure and stress when family members leave their homes, are factors that contribute to this problem. Psychology aligned with therapy can alleviate the pressure so that the university experience is not negative, because, through self-knowledge (knowledge of oneself), the student has skills that can support the handling of their own conflicts.
