Guitar Class

Introduction. The guitar class, opened by V. Dotsenko in 1989, recently celebrated its 30th anniversary and presented the university with many winners of international competitions, ensemble groups and new scholarly discourses. Together with the constant changes in society’s requirements for academic education and musician’s activities, this encourages us to estimate its achievements and prospects at the present stage. The aim of the article is to identify the key vectors of the guitar class of Kharkiv National University of Arts at the present stage. In accordance with the goal, such methods are chosen as historical, which allows to reveal the dynamics of development of the Kharkiv guitar school in the period of its formation to the present; typological – to identify key areas of activity of the guitar class at the present stage. Results and Discussion. The study of the Kharkiv guitar school and guitar class of KhNUA from its formation to the present day allows us to identify the leading vectors and key features of their activities, among which it is proposed to distinguish two main ones: innovation and multivectority. Already at the stage of formation, the Kharkiv guitar school proved to be innovative – it was in Kharkiv where the first guitar club in Ukraine and the USSR was opened, within which the first guitar quartet in the USSR soon appeared, the first in Ukraine scholarly conference dedicated to guitar art, it was one of the first to join the digitalization process, conducting online performances and successfully presenting the guitar orchestra at the international level, resulting in two Grand Prix in 2020. Already within the activities of the guitar club, another leading feature of the Kharkiv guitar school – multivectority – has declared itself. Gathering like-minded people to share experiences and get acquainted with samples of modern guitar art, the club “nurtured” teachers, masters of instruments, and musicians-ensembles. All the directions initiated in the last century deepen and continue to branch out in the XXI century in the activities of the guitar class KhNUA: educational one is supplemented by scientific (conferences, defense of PhD theses), pedagogical one – by methodical complex (methodical works of V. Dotsenko), solo and ensemble performance – by the orchestra. Conclusions. Innovativeness and multivectority become leading features of the guitar class of KhNUA at the present stage. In recent years, the school’s activities are supplemented by such vectors as the formation of a guitar orchestra (2016), cooperation with European institutions of higher music education (Erasmus), active immersion in the digitalization process, in particular, online competitions and online broadcasts of the concerts, which fit its activity into the latest trends in the development of musical performance and education and shows the involvement in the European standards of artistic activity.

IN SAMOA during July 2015, a new Pacific journalism education and training advocacy era was born with the establishment of the Media Educators Pacific (MEP) after a talkfest had gone on for years about the need for such a body. A draft constitution had even been floated at a journalism education conference hosted at the University of the South Pacific in 2012. The initiative created unity of sorts between the Technical, Vocational and Educational Training (TVET) media institutes from Fiji, Samoa, Solomon Islands and Vanuatu, and the regional University of the South Pacific journalism programme. Founding president Misa Vicky Lepou of the National University of Samoa pledged at the time to produce a vision with a difference:

Abstract: Arno Rafael Cederberg as a Professor at the Estonian Republic’s University of Tartu Soon after the Republic of Estonia declared itself independent on the 24th of February 1918, academics and politicians of the newly formed nation wished to found a new national university built on the foundation of the former Imperial University of Tartu. This university would teach in the Estonian language, with the aim of offering higher educational studies in Estonian, as well as building up Estonian national sciences. By the spring of 1919, the committee for reopening the university was ready to open the university for studies and research in the autumn of the same year. However, they were struggling to find suitably qualified professors, as Estonians had generally been excluded from the imperial university. Prior to 1918, only three Estonians had worked as professors at the University of Tartu, while others were forced to find positions at Russian universities. In order to avoid delaying the opening of the new university, the committee decided to invite foreign professors to fill the vacant positions. They were particularly keen on Finnish professors, with whom Estonians had formed strong ties during the early 20th century. Thus, in the first half of the 1920s, Estonian research and university life was supported by eight Finnish professors. This article focuses on one of them, namely Professor A. R. Cederberg, Professor of Estonian and Nordic History, and his activity and contributions to the formation of a new field of science and its study at the University of Tartu, as well as in the rest of Estonia. As Cederberg was an experienced archivist, he was asked to help build up the archives of Estonia and organise the collection of the Estonian National Museum, while working for the University in parallel. Despite his large workload, he was able to quickly set goals and priorities for the development of Estonian historical science and its study programme at the university. Prior to the opening of the national university, Estonian history had primarily been researched by Baltic Germans, whose goals and visions of history differed significantly from those of Estonians. Cederberg believed that historical research efforts should focus more on the period of Swedish rule from the 16th century until the beginning of the 18th century. This period of Estonian history had previously been largely ignored by the historical community in favour of other historical periods. While working in mainly Finnish and Scandinavian archives during summer and winter holidays, he found many sources that shed light on the period of Swedish rule in Estonia. By directing students towards researching the early modern era in Estonia, he ensured that dozens of seminar works and Master’s and Doctor’s theses were written on this subject. Cederberg was not convinced that the foundation of Estonian historical science could be based only on research conducted at the university. As such he decided to found the first Estonian Academic Historical Society right after his arrival in Tartu in the early 1920s. While the primary goal of this society was to get students interested in history, particularly Estonian history, the society quickly developed into the centre of Estonian historical science. During the eight-and-a-half years he worked at the University of Tartu, Cederberg contributed enormously to the development of Estonian historical science. He built up an entirely new field of science and study based on the histories of Estonia and the Nordic countries, and educated a plethora of outstanding young historians (such as H. Sepp, H. Kruus, P. Treiberg (Tarvel), J. Vasar, E. Blumfeldt, A. Soom, O. Liiv, G. Rauch, etc.), who vigorously and effectively continued the work their professor had started.

The MIMI project was initiated by the DSI in partnership with the South African Local Government Association (SALGA), the HSRC and UKZN. The purpose of this initiative was to develop an innovative tool capable of assessing and measuring the innovation landscape in municipalities, thus enabling municipalities to adopt innovative practices to improve service delivery. The outcome of the implementation testing, based on the participation of 22 municipalities, demonstrated the value and the capacity of MIMI to produce innovation maturity scores for municipalities. The digital assessment tool looked at how a municipality, as an organisation, responds to science, technology and innovation (STI) linked to service delivery, and the innovation capabilities and readiness of the municipality and the officials themselves. The tool is also designed to recommend areas of improvements in adopting innovative practices and nurturing an innovation mindset for impactful municipal service delivery. The plan going forward is to conduct learning forums to train municipal officials on how to use the MIMI digital platform, inform them about the nationwide implementation rollout plan and support municipal officials to engage in interactive and shared learnings to allow them to move to higher innovation maturity levels. The virtual launch featured a keynote address by the DSI Director-General, Dr Phil Mjwara; Prof Mehmet Akif Demircioglu from the National University of Singapore gave an international perspective on innovation measurements in the public sector; and messages of support were received from MIMI partners, delivered by Prof Mosa Moshabela, Deputy Vice-Chancellor (DVC) of Research at the University of KwaZulu-Natal (UKZN) and Prof Leickness Simbayi, Acting CEO of the Human Sciences Research Council (HSRC). It attracted over 200 attendees from municipalities, government, business and private sector stakeholders, academics, policymakers and the international audience. @ASSAf_Official; @dsigovza; #MIMI_Launch; #IID
