The graduation profile is one of the key elements for the accreditation standard of higher education. It mirrors the performance of the applied educational system within a period of time. The better it is, the better the accreditation will be. In support of this, a graduation prediction may be conducted to the academic database of the students. It is of pivotal to trace and classify the historical data into the data training and data testing, thus, to predict the on time-graduation. The step is importantly done to help decide the better management of learning processes. This study was therefore done to analyse certain variables applied to predict the on time-graduation using the algorythms of C.45 and K-Nearest Neighbour (K-NN). The data mining was done to the academic database of the students of the Pharmacy study programme, Pharmacy Faculty, Muhammadiyah University of Purwokerto by adding certain variables into the process. The data was then classified into the data training and data testing. Backward selection was done to select the best and most influential variables for the dataset. The study further resulted that by using the algorhythm of C.45 and backward selection, the accuracy of the graduation reached 92.75%. It is different from the acurracy the K-NN and backward selection showed that reached 96.14%. The result confirmed that the KNN showed the better accuracy than the C.45. It considerably benefitted the study programme to make better decisions on increasing the quality of services, in particular that of leraning processes.

Why are institutions of higher education interested in internationalization? The question was asked at a faculty meeting in our university college. A variety of arguments and opinions were expressed. Many “when”, “what”, “how”, “who” and “why” questions were asked. Some arguments were normative and altruistic emphasizing the need of helping to develop countries in improving their educational system, others took a more ideological stand explaining internationalization within a neo-liberal and globalized frame, and some arguments emphasized the importance of a comparative approach to improve the quality of national education.

Esta pesquisa tem como objetivo apresentar resumidamente os itens metodológicos utilizados para elaboração de um modelo de avaliação da qualidade dos serviços prestados pelas instituições de ensino superior, denominado PHERFFO (Performance Higher Education Poffo), a qual trata-se de uma continuidade à pesquisa de Poffo e Verdinelli (2017). Neste sentido, para a construção e validação do modelo de avaliação da qualidade de serviços educacionais buscou-se, primeiramente, traçar uma revisão de literatura baseada em teorias já validadas por diversos autores, como Parasuraman, Berry e Zeithaml (1985, 1988), Cronin e Taylor (1992), Abdullah (2006), Anil e Icli (2014), Dias Sobrinho (2010) e os instrumentos de avaliação do MEC/INEP, dentre outros estudos. Como resultado foi proposto um modelo que se divide em nove dimensões: Reputação Mercadológica, Segurança, Atendimento Administrativo, Relacionamento Interpessoal, Infraestrutura, Oportunidade de Carreira, Aspectos Educacionais, Aspectos Acadêmicos e Transformação Social. Conclui-se que traçar um panorama confiável, através de um modelo de avaliação da qualidade do serviço entregue, é o primeiro passo para aprofundar as discussões acerca da qualidade do Ensino Superior brasileiro. This research aims to briefly present the methodological items used to develop a model for evaluating the quality of services provided by higher education institutions, called PHERFFO (Performance Higher Education Poffo), which is a continuation of Poffo's research and Verdinelli (2017).  In this sense, for the construction and validation of the model for evaluating the quality of educational services, we sought, firstly, to draw up a literature review based on theories already validated by several authors, such as Parasuraman, Berry and Zeithaml (1985, 1988), Cronin and Taylor (1992), Abdullah (2006), Anil and Icli (2014), Dias Sobrinho (2010) and the MEC/INEP assessment instruments, among other studies. As a result, a model was proposed that is divided into nine dimensions: Marketing Reputation, Security, Administrative Service, Interpersonal Relationship, Infrastructure, Career Opportunity, Educational Aspects, Academic Aspects and Social Transformation. It is concluded that drawing a reliable panorama, through an evaluation model of the quality of the service delivered, is the first step to deepen the discussions about the quality of Brazilian Higher Education.

In recent years, the system of higher education has undergone significant changes affecting the most important spheres of university activities: management of the educational process, its organization, which significantly changes the attitudes, incentives, motives and value system of the academic staff. In a number of cases, as a result of reforming the management system there are created special conditions that affect the quality of educational services. The task of investigating the consequences of the ongoing reforms is being actualized in order to identify the main factors that restrain the growth of quality. To solve this problem there has been made comparative analysis of the quality of higher education in Russia and abroad. Significant reserves of its growth in Russia have been revealed. There had been proposed a classification based on the scope of action: factors that operate within the educational system, but are external to the higher education; factors that are external to the educational system as a whole; factors acting within the system of higher education. The most significant external factor for the educational system is the low innovative potential of the economy, underestimation of the quality of education by business, which determines the aim of the majority of students not to build up human capital, but to obtain a diploma with minimal expenses. The factors intrinsic to the educational system, but external to the higher education system, include the lack of interest and unpreparedness of school teachers for working with gifted students, which is primarily due to the use of the results of the General State Examination and Unified State Examination for evaluating their work . The main negative factor operating within the higher education system is the distortion of teachers' incentives, the increase of their opportunistic behavior caused by the transition to a new management system for higher education organizations.

Research question: The aim of the study is to examine the inclination of engineering students in Serbia to adopt M-learning. Motivation: Mobile technologies provide new solutions in the current concept of learning. Students today have a new approach to learning since they live in the era of digital technology. The use of mobile technology in higher education came along with the technological enlightenment of professors and students, eradicating geographical boundaries and enabling cooperative learning. Idea: Mobile learning (M-learning) is unthinkable without the use of mobile devices and it plays an increasingly important role in the development of teaching methods in higher education. The research refers to the analysis and assessment of M-learning in higher education with the aim to identify problems and weaknesses related to the application of M-learning in order to set alternatives and criteria for the proposed model. Data: The survey was conducted through a questionnaire, and 341 correctly filled out questionnaires were collected. The obtained data were processed by the Visual Promethee software package. Tools: The research methodology was based on the Multi-criteria decision analysis (MCDA) method which was used in the form of PROMETHEE II/GAIA technique. In order to rank the student programmes from different study areas, groups of questions were used as criteria, and study programmes were used as alternatives. Findings: The acquired results indicated that M-learning was mostly used by the students of Engineering Management, since they frequently used mobile technology in certain required courses, as well as for obligatory business practice. It was also concluded that the study programme Metallurgical Engineering had the lowest performance concerning the implementation of M-learning among all other observed study programmes. Contribution: The conclusions of this study can add to the awareness-raising of the higher education institutions' interested parties and alert them to improve the quality of M-education by pointing out that there are differences in the adoption of M-learning depending on the type of engineering sciences.
