Previous studies showed that most children believe majority rule is the right decision rule, and prefer it to authority rule when making group decisions among peers. Yet, these were conducted mostly in Western or similar populations. Here, we conducted experiments with fifty-one Burmese children (4 to 11 years old) at three types of educational institutions: international schools, a monastery school and a day-care centre for street children. In the experiment, children were asked whether they prefer majority or authority rule in a hypothetical story. The result showed the educational institution influences the proportion choosing majority rule, suggesting that preference for majority rule may not be a universal pattern and decision preference may be shaped by cultural factors.

The article deals with the features of the distribution of economic rights between customers of basic and applied researches, research and technological development (RTD) and higher educational institutions, as executors of such researches.During the study the author has analyzed general provisions of the Civil Code of Ukraine regarding the distribution of rights to the results of basic and applied researches, research and technological development (RTD) between the customer and the executor of such researches. In addition, the author has analyzed provisions of special legislation regarding the distribution of economic rights to scientific and scientific-technical (applied) results, which are IPR objects.Based on this analysis, it has been found that the distribution of economic rights to IPR objects, which are the results of basic and applied researches, research and technological development (RTD), at the level of «customer — executor of such researches» will depend on: 1) the type IPR objects that will be created and 2) the sources of fundingof such researches. In relation to such IPR objects as inventions, utility models, industrial designs, copyright, layout designs (topographies) of integrated circuits, plant varieties, animal breeds and performances the following options for distribution of economic rights are possible:1) in case of non-budgetary financing of basic and applied researches, research and technological development (RTD) — rights belong jointly to the customer and the higher educational institution-executor of such researches. This may be changed by a contract between the customer and the executor.2) in case of budgetary financing of researches — rights belong to the higher educational institutions-executor of such researches. In addition, the legislator does not provide for the possibility to change the said provision by contractually. At the same time, the customer of such research should be assigned the right to use IPR objects for free.3) in the case of budgetary financing of the researches, while the obtained IPR objects are state secrets or objects obtained under a state defence order — rights belong to the customer of such research. This cannot be changed contractually either;4) in the case of mixed financing (own funds of the higher educational institution and budgetary funds) – rights belong to the party that will be determined contractually by the customer and the executor of the basic and applied researches, research and technological development (RTD).In the case of a scientific discovery, we can only talk about moral rights, namely – the right of attribution. Thus, the indicated object is outside of the scope of the rules regarding the distribution of economic rights.As to phonograms and videograms, the economic rights to these objects will belong to that party to research agreements that will actually “create” those objects. This can be either the customer or the executor of such researches.As to trade secrets, the economic rights will, as a general rule, belong to both the customer and higher educational institution — the executor of basic and applied researches, research and technological development (RTD). In this case, disposing of these rights will be carried out jointly. This can be changed contractually. Also, suggestions to improve the legislation of Ukraine have been made.

The right to data portability applies only to personal data provided to the controller by the data subject himself, and only if the processing was initially based on the consent of the user or on the basis of a contract. Most cases when students or their parents submits their personal data to educational institution are cases covered by this right, moreover, in most cases, those are sensitive personal data.In the context of the right to data portability, data subjects directly transmit data from one data controller to another where technically possible. The regulation does not specify what is meant by “technically feasible”. The wording indicates that this should be addressed on a case-by-case basis and a dynamic interpretation of the term "technically feasible" should be ensured. This is limited because the Regulation does not oblige data controllers to accept or maintain compatible processing systems. In case with educational institutions and students’ opportunities to change the study place including mid-school year it’s important to identify problems with data portability and facilitate the transition process to get student into the new study environment and system faster and more effective.For this purpose, the author identifies main problems and challenges that educational institutions can face when they act as a data controllers. The subject of the research is the relationship between the data subject (students) and the data controller (educational institution), implementing the right to data portability.

The most fundamental problem in education in Indonesia is the quality that has not exceeded the desired standards, including education staff, facilities, funding, management, processes and student achievement. Referring to the citation of the problem of financing which comes from the diversity of the current state of educational institutions, it raises the idea that it is very easy to build an organization that is based on profit or non-profit, but in the process, an organization should have to survive in the face of its environmental conditions. If you are able to adapt to the environment, so that the organization will survive, otherwise if not, ultimately only a name. Of course it's very easy to solve this problem. Another problem is the lack of funds, this problem is a fundamental reason that impedes the goals of an organization. The need for preventive measures in the procurement of funds is to build business units that generate profits for the establishment of an independent institution. The research in this article was conducted at Islamic education institutions, especially at Muhammadiyah 2 Sidoarjo High School, which aims to have educational institutions that have the right management in managing their business units, so that they receive income that can support the independence of educational institutions. The Business Unit to be investigated is specialized in leasing several business units owned by the Muhammadiyah 2 Sidoarjo High School. In this article, research conducted using a qualitative approach, the culminative approach is an approach that produces descriptive data in the form of written or oral words from people and observed behavior. The results of this study indicate that of the total business unit revenue only 17% is used for operational purposes, and 83% is left to the Sidoarjo SMAMDA educational institution. Thus it can be concluded that the entrepreneurship owned by Muhammadiyah 2 Sidoarjo High School in the form of several business units, with good management so as to provide income to the institution, this has helped Muhammadiyah High Schools to become independent educational institutions.
