E. Libanova

The monograph is devoted to substantiating the priorities of national policy to minimize the asymmetry of the Ukrainian labor market due to global risks. The main attention is paid to specific forms of asymmetry in the labor market, its factors and sources. A typology of global trends relevant to the development of the national labor market and the level of its asymmetry is developed. The concept of asymmetry of work and labor supply is presented, the prospects of forming a single integrated information and analytical system of labor market policy in Ukraine are identified. The materials of the monograph can be used by public authorities and social partners. Intended for graduate students and undergraduate students of economic specialties.

The article presents a study of the influence of the specifics of the formation of the motivational sphere of undergraduate students on their readiness and ability to perform their labor functions for obtaining a quality education. High-quality education is the basis for a decent life and sustainable personal and social development, which contributes to changing the labor market in all countries of the world, blurring the boundaries between the physical, digital, and psychological and biological spheres. The study of this topic is extremely important for Russia, which seeks to overcome the negative consequences on the labor market and lag behind global trends in development through the implementation of the strategy 2016-2030. As a result of the work, a cluster of pedagogical technologies “UnInd of motivations” was created, which has wide opportunities and allows to implement the educational process in a new way in the modern conditions of the university, namely: to create conditions for improving the training of a university student, increasing the motivation of learning by solving case problems of a practice-oriented nature, to create conditions for further self-improvement in the professional sphere.

Nearly 50% of graduate students report experiencing emotional or psychological distress during their enrollment in graduate school. Levels of distress are particularly high for transgender and non-binary graduate students who experience daily discrimination and marginalization. Universities and colleges have yet to address and accommodate the needs and experiences of transgender and non-binary graduate students. Given the multitude of challenges these students may face, educational settings should not present additional barriers to educational success and well-being. In an effort to improve graduate education for transgender and non-binary students, we add to the existing scholarship on affirming work with transgender undergraduate students by addressing the unique concerns of graduate students. We utilize a social-ecological model to identify sources of discrimination in post-secondary education and to provide transgender- and non-binary-affirming recommendations at structural, interpersonal, and individual levels. For practitioners who wish to do personal work, we provide guidance for multicultural identity exploration. A table of recommendations and discussion of ways to implement our recommendations are provided.

Because critical analysis of published information is an essential component of scientific life, it is important that students be trained in its practice. Undergraduate students who are more accustomed to reading textbooks and taking lecture notes find it difficult to appreciate primary publications. To help such students, we have developed a checklist that helps them analyze different components of a research article in basic biomedical sciences. Students used the checklist to analyze critically a published article. The students were assigned an article and asked to write a paper (maximum 2 pages of single-spaced type) assessing it. This assignment has been found useful to both undergraduate and graduate students in pharmacology and physiology. Student responses to a questionnaire were highly favorable; students thought the exercise provided them with some of the essential skills for life-long learning.

One moment from the much-discussed 2017 curriculum reform in the Music Department at Harvard University has stuck with me and transformed the way I approach teaching music in higher education. In one of the meetings leading up to the revision, graduate students in the department led an activity in which attendees—who included undergraduate students, graduate students, and faculty alike—got into small groups and discussed the relative merits of three hypothetical models for the new undergraduate curriculum. Each of the models involved decentering to some extent the existing curriculum's emphasis on the history of Western European music and dominant music theoretical approaches to it. After a short while, we all gathered back together and one person from each group shared a bit about what had transpired. From the circle of desks nearest the door, an undergraduate student rose to speak and expressed enthusiasm for a broadening of curricular coverages. But, they said, their group also had some reservations about jettisoning the overall focus on Western European concert music altogether. “We still need to learn about our history,” they said, while a faculty member nodded behind them.

The present study is conducted to measure religiosity and stress of graduate students belonging to gender living in Marathwada. The investigators employed one independent variables, gender can influence the religiosity and stress of students. The study was carried out on the sample of graduate students. To measure the religiosity and stress the researcher used the standardized scale of Bhusan and Bisht Battery of stress. The sample consisted of 100 students, out of which, 50 were males and 50 females. The findings of the study revealed that there is significant difference in the religiosity and stress of undergraduate students. Correlation between religiosity and stress is not significant found.

This paper reports on a pilot project that involved the incorporation of Community Service-Learning (CSL) into a large Introductory Sociology class by drawing on the critical reflections of the six graduate student instructors and the primary instructor who taught the course. Graduate student instructors individually facilitated weekly seminars for about 30 undergraduate students, half of which participated in CSL, completing 20 hours of volunteer work with a local non-profit community organization. We discuss the benefits of incorporating CSL into a large Introductory Sociology class and speculate on the value of our particular course format for the professional development of graduate student instructors. A main finding was the critical importance to graduate students of formal and informal training and collaboration prior to and during the delivery of the course. Graduate students found useful exposure to CSL as pedagogical theory and practice, and appreciated the hands-on teaching experience. Challenges with this course structure include the difficulty of seamlessly incorporating CSL student experiences into the class, dealing with the “CSL”/ “non CSL” student division, and the nature of some of the CSL placements. We conclude by discussing possible methods for dealing with these challenges.
