Accreditation is an indicator of the quality of education at the education unit level. One affects the quality of education units is the school budget. School budgets are prepared in order to fulfill 8 national education standards. School budget management uses School Activity Plan and Budget Application (ARKAS) developed by the Ministry of Education, Culture, Research and Technology (Kemendikbudristek). ARKAS is an information system for managing school budget and expenditure planning. The Research is identifies the factors that influence the accreditation of high school (SMA) with accreditation as a response variable and 17 explanatory variables sourced from ARKAS and Dapodik data using ordinal logistic regression analysis. The best model stage is the model formed that has the smallest AIC value and has high model accuracy in determining the best model. The best model stage is the third model stage which is composed of 7 explanatory variables that affect the high school accreditation rating with AIC value of 1886,20 and model accuracy of 65,79%. The variables that affect to results of accreditation include school status, percentage of students eligible PIP, ratio of the number of students per number of teachers, percentage of teachers certified educators, ratio of the number of students per number of study groups, ratio of the number of students per number of computers, and ratio of the number of students per number of toilets

The economic and innovational development depend on the quality of human capital, which is determined by the quality of education. The quality of training of pupils and students depends not only on traditional factors (amounts of funding, composition of groups), but also on the qualification of teachers, the level of introduction of new technologies in the educational process. A significant role in increasing the competitiveness of national education systems is played by the English language, which is an imperative condition for innovative breakthroughs, scientific achievements, mastery of new technologies. There is a redistribution of spheres of influence in the field of secondary and higher education at the global level, where the countries of the East Asian region are at the forefront. Attention to postdoctoral training as a prerequisite for improving the efficiency of the innovation process is significantly increasing. The necessity of finding a balance in the teaching of humanities and natural sciences and engineering disciplines in order to reveal the innovative potential of societies in the conditions of rapid technological changes is substantiated.

Introduction: The Need for Recovery (NFR) Scale facilitates the understanding of the factors that can lead to sustainable working and employability. Short-form scales can reduce the burden on researchers and respondents. Our aim was to create and validate a short-form Danish version of the NFR Scale. Methods: Two datasets were used to conduct the exploratory and confirmatory analyses. This was done using qualitative and quantitative methods. The exploratory phase identified several short-form versions of the Danish NFR Scale and evaluated the quality of each through the assessment of content, construct and criterion validity, and responsiveness. These evaluations were then verified through the confirmatory analysis, using the second dataset. Results: A short-form NFR scale consisting of three items (exhausted at the end of a work day, hard to find interest in other people after a work day, it takes over an hour to fully recover from a work day) showed excellent validity and responsiveness compared to the nine-item scale. Furthermore, a short-form consisting of just two items also showed excellent validity and good responsiveness. Conclusion: A short-form NFR scale, consisting of three items from the Danish NFR Scale, seems to be an appropriate substitute for the full nine-item scale.

This study was part of the VUNA project aimed to develop an affordable sanitation system that produces a valuable fertiliser, reduces pollution of water resources and promotes health. Urine diversion dry toilets (UDDTs) simplify the on-site hygienisation of faeces and allow for nutrient recovery from urine. Social acceptance is vital for the implementation of the UDDT, because sanitation is only effective if the system not only provides a well-designed toilet and effective waste management, but also offers users a facility that caters to their needs and is sensitive to their cultural lifestyle. This study used qualitative and quantitative methods to investigate acceptance, use and maintenance of UDDTs. Key findings indicate lower levels of acceptance of UDDTs among the elderly, who are accustomed to traditional pit toilets. The users aspire to own a flush toilet, perceived to be indicative of household wealth. A dominant concern was emptying the pit and the quality of the building material. Community interventions are required that will promote acceptance, understanding and encourage proper use and maintenance of the UDDT, and may need some technology modification. There is an urgent need for increased community participation to address users' perceptions, attitudes and behaviour concerning the UDDT.

Abstract With the increasing functionality and complexity of the material environment it is becoming important to universally improve the quality of its shape design for people with different knowledge. When the material environment shape does not match its value content or acquire unpredictable meaning, it creates disharmony between the function and user that requires intellectual and / or emotional effort for interaction. The intuitive design improves user’s interaction because the information is presented on the subconscious level, hence it is accepted as a natural part of our environment and demands less effort to grasp and evaluate it. In this study, the scientific context of intuition is examined to determine methods and values of shape intuitive expression modeling. The goal of the study is to assess the effectiveness of shape experimental intuitive harmonization methodology using qualitative and quantitative methods. Functional and interaction restrictions are integrated into the object’s shape by employing experimental modeling techniques. Surveys, controlled observations and MaxDiff analysis were used to monitor intuitive harmonization effects on car body split-line and box shape physical models. Experimental results show that the majority of participants consider conceptual shape models to be more intuitively attractive and informative. The study concludes that it is possible and viable to employ a proposed shape intuitive harmonization variable to achieve a universally positive effect.
