Measuring Efficiency

Modern societies, new technical equipment and technology confirm the importance of knowledge acquisition in everyday life, especially in economy. An education system is a non-profit system. Since it strongly affects economic efficiency, its quantification becomes a very complex process. In order to make the quantification process possible, this paper analyses the already existing criteria for measuring efficiency in higher education systems. The already existing models of measuring educational efficiency are universal and do not analyse different professions’ specific qualities. In this paper, models of measuring educational efficiency were analysed separately, whereas their interrelations were not a part of the analysis. A conceptual model of measuring maritime higher education institutions’ (hereinafter: MHEI) efficiency was proposed on the basis of the above-mentioned analysis. All the evaluation criteria relevant for MHEI and their interrelations were determined.

Purpose. This article aims to test the hypothesis of significant imbalances in the regional higher education systems in Ukraine and to substantiate the priority areas for improving their competitiveness on the criteria of quality, social responsibility, and economic efficiency. Design/methodology/approach. The first part of the study offers a conceptual model for analysing the higher education system's competitiveness. The authors use the main provisions of the theory of human, social and intellectual capital, stakeholder theory, literature review method, and interdisciplinary approach to determine the features of higher education as a particular sector of social activity, regional economy, as well as an object of competitiveness analysis in terms of three criteria – quality, economic efficiency, and social responsibility. In the second part, the authors propose the methodological framework and list of indicators for analysing the regional higher education systems based on a developed conceptual model. The third part presents the results of statistical analysis of higher education systems in 25 regions of Ukraine and priority areas for improving their competitiveness by the criteria of quality, social responsibility, and economic efficiency. Findings. The hypothesis of significant imbalances in the regional higher education systems in Ukraine is proven. The results of the analysis reveal substantial differences in the regional higher education systems, particularly for indicators as the ratio of university entrants and high school graduates participating in the independent external testing in this region, the proportion of HEIs students studying at the expense of local budgets, the number of regional HEIs in the world university rankings. Considering the results of the analysis and the features of regional development, the authors substantiate the priority areas for improving the competitiveness of the higher education system for Ukraine’s regions by the criteria of quality, social responsibility, and economic efficiency. Each of these priority areas involves using appropriate target indicators and considers the interests of key stakeholders of the higher education system. Practical implications. The authors propose priority areas for improving the competitiveness of higher education in the regions that can be used to implement the strategic goals of the potential intellectual development of Ukraine's regions and thus enhance the role of HEIs in solving urgent problems of regional development. Originality/value. Despite numerous papers on economics and management in higher education, there are virtually no studies in academic practice, which aim to take into account the regional features of higher education. Secondly, based on its comprehensive empirical research, third, it can justify the strategic priorities for the development of provincial higher education systems with relevant target indicators. Thus this study aims to fill these gaps.

The World

Today, the system of higher education around the world continues to take measures to effectively organize educational activities in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. All METHODS OF TEACHING AT HIGHER EDUCATIONAL ESTABLISHMENTS Issue I (81), 2021 131 countries of the world had to face unexpected difficulties in connection with the introduction of self-isolation. The higher education system was "on the front lines" with a large number of people. The closure of higher education institutions and the emergency transition to distance learning have led to obvious problems, mainly due to insufficient technical equipment, lack or poor preparation of both teachers and students to work in the new environment. These and other problems pose another challenge to the higher education system in a critical situation. At the same time, along with the obvious challenges and problems, the new format of distance learning provides a wide range of opportunities and prospects for change and improvement of educational systems, for which the critical situation creates forced conditions. The article substantiates the importance of effective distance learning in higher education in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic and outlines the main problems of the individual in the relationship "teacher-student" in quarantine. The current stage of informatization of society cannot be imagined without the introduction of information and communication technologies in all parts of the education system, educational institutions and government. These technologies are especially relevant in quarantine, as they allow you to implement distance learning. It is also important that distance education expands and renews the role of the teacher, makes him a mentor-consultant who should coordinate the cognitive process, constantly improve the courses he teaches, and increase creativity and skills in accordance with innovations and innovations. During distance education, there is also a positive impact on higher education: increasing their creative and intellectual potential through self-organization, the desire for knowledge, the use of modern information and telecommunications technologies, the ability to make responsible decisions. The analysis of the research devoted to distance educational process, has allowed to reveal its other basic features, in particular: orientation on independent cognitive activity; significant potential opportunities for distance learning to intensify educational and cognitive activities; the possibility of organizing open learning, expanding the audience of consumers of educational services; integration of world educational services; reduction, under certain conditions, of material costs for the organization and implementation of the learning process.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to make a case for linking spiritual intelligence to the Indian university curriculum for creating sustainable leaders and change agents. The growing emphasis on higher education sustainability involves taking a step back from the daily rigors of academic life and giving a thought to the unique approaches to promote sustainability. Though there are several initiatives for making the environment in the campus sustainable – switching off lights/fans, reducing consumption, etc., there are very few initiatives promoting the transformation of the individual. This paper defines a new conceptual framework linking spiritual intelligence to leadership and sustainability of the higher education system. Design/methodology/approach This present study is analytical and comprises secondary data which are collected from research papers, books, periodicals and journals. Using keywords search in the Scopus database, a list of papers was arrived at, analyzed and distilled to arrive at select journals. These journals were cross-reference to the SCimago’s journal portal ranking and established journal selected. Papers based on these established journals were taken for systematic review and synthesis of literature. Literature studies for bibliometric analysis work were also conducted using the using tools like “VOSviewer” for precisely arriving at current and future areas of research. Findings There were three main findings: defined a new conceptual model/framework of practical spiritual intelligence in the higher education system; defined the key shared language of spiritual intelligence in a higher education system; and defined the key attributes of practical spiritual leadership and sustainability. Originality/value This research is based on developing a conceptual model of interaction between spiritual intelligence and spiritual leadership in a higher education university environment that can give us a new insight into the manifestation of practical spirituality in universities. The extent of research work, both conceptual as well as empirical, as evidenced, does indicate the growing and sustained interest in the subject of spirituality and spiritual intelligence, but there is limited research in the area of leadership development and sustainability in the higher education system.

Convergence And Divergence

Abstract Globally, higher education is expanding at an unprecedented pace. But two competing forces seem to be at work. The first is globalization: higher education systems are globalizing, especially through international research networks and global rankings which fuel competition on a global scale. Internationally comparable qualification frameworks, credit transfer, internationalization policies and quality assurance and accreditation arrangements work towards globally exchangeable qualifications. But the second force, driving institutions to deliver skills which are relevant for the national and regional economies, works against convergence. The skills equivalents of national qualifications remain very different across countries. The skills agendas, driven by countries’ position in global value chains, drive unequal outcomes. The consequence is that the global higher education system will remain characterized by huge inequalities, which are perceived as quality differences. Higher education policies need to find a balance between integration in the global higher education order and serving the domestic skills needs.
