A number of studies have considered the evaluation of efficiency in higher education institutions. In this paper, we focus on the issue of revenue efficiency, in particular ascertaining the extent to which, given output prices, producers choose the revenue maximising vector of outputs. We then relax the price taking assumption to consider the case in which the market for some outputs is characterised by monopolistic competition. We evaluate efficiencies for English institutions of higher education for the academic year 2012–13 and find considerable variation across institutions in revenue efficiency. The relaxation of the price-taking assumption leads to relatively small changes, in either direction, to the estimated revenue efficiency scores. A number of issues surrounding the modelling process are raised and discussed, including the determination of the demand function for each type of output and the selection of inputs and outputs to be used in the model.

The COVID-19 outbreak has a considerable impact on all business domains worldwide, almost with negative consequences. The digital transformation was already a requirement for all governments and institutions that this pandemic has accelerated to solve the confinement and the limitations to work and share the same spaces. Face-to-face higher education institutions moved towards an urgent and unplanned online teaching. After having closed one of the processes that has had the most significant impact on universities, the time has come to reflect and draw conclusions that will serve to face these institutions' future. A crisis always represents risks but also opportunities to change from a disruptive situation. This chapter reflects universities' futures from a strengths-weaknesses-opportunities-threats approach with the perspective of the experiences lived during the end of the 2019-2020 academic year by some face-to-face universities in Spain.

The physical education system of the students with chronic diseases, health disorders, congenital anomalies, and low level of physical development and physical fitness, does not sufficiently address efficiency restoration and ensuring normal life. The analysis of literature sources actualized the problem and conclusively proved the need for a comprehensive, systematic study of the health of young students. The aim of the study: to monitor the number of students with health disorders at higher education institutions. The research methods: literary, conceptual and comparative analysis; the analysis of the medical examination of students; pedagogical observation; statistical methods. The object of observation was the students of higher education institutions of a special medical group in the amount of 867 people. Studies conducted for a long time in the educational institution "PolesU", confirmed the superiority of cardiovascular diseases among other pathologies (22.15%). In the 2014/2015 academic year, diseases were recorded in 26.51% of students of the special medical group. The reduction in the number of students enrolled in SMG by the third year indicates that due attention is being paid to correcting their physical condition and improving their health. The largest number of students among those classified by health status as a special medical group was the first-year students.

The activities of law enforcement officers are characterized by significant psycho-emotional and physical stress. Therefore, a high level of psychophysiological characteristics is an important component in the structure of preparedness of cadets in higher education institutions with specific training conditions that train police officers. Experts note that the indicators of sensorimotor reactions are one of the most accessible and, at the same time, quite accurate neurophysiological indicators that reflect the dynamics of nervous processes, motor coordination, overall performance and activity of the central nervous system in various fields. Research aimed at the finding of the effective ways to improve them is relevant. We conducted a study of psychophysiological characteristics in 2 groups of cadets during the first academic year. The first group of cadets trained in the course of the discipline "Special Physical Training". The cadets of the second group were engaged in "Special physical training", and also during the academic year trained in sections of game sports (football and volleyball). The results show that the traditional curriculum of the discipline "Special Physical Training" in higher education institutions with specific training conditions that train police officers is not effective enough to improve the performance of sensorimotor reactions of cadets. In the group of cadets, who did not train in sports sections, we did not find a significant improvement of the psychophysiological characteristics. The results indicate the feasibility of using sectional classes of game sports (football, volleyball) as a means of improving the efficiency of the process of training.

The introduction of innovations in the financial management of higher education institutions (hereinafter – HEIs) is taking place along with other changes in the educational and scientific field and is an important issue today. One of the innovations is the Procedure for the formation of minimum tuition fee for higher education on the basis of indicative ownership, which extends to 38 most popular specialties. The influence of state regulation of the minimum level of the cost of paid educational services for specialists training in some popular specialties on the formation of the financial potential of HEIs is investigated in this paper. The amount of tuition fees for students and indicators of the admission campaign in 2020/2021 academic year of some state HEIs in Lviv region is analyzed. Comparing them with the data of previous academic year, we can see that in HEIs where the cost significantly increase due to the indicative cost use, the number of entrants to the paid form of education are reducing. For comprehensive vision, considerable attention is paid to the national demographic and political situation, as well as to the approaches to higher education funding. The level of actual budget expenditures for the preparation of one applicant for higher education in different state HEIs is analyzed. It is revealed that entrant's demand directly depends on the cost of education. And the financial potential of HEIs which is formed, in particular, through paid educational services depends on the number of enrolled students who will study at the expense of individuals and legal entities. We believe that while forming the price offer and establishing the final cost of training specialists in all specialties in HEIs, in addition to considering all costs of providing services, it is necessary to take into account the situation on the market of educational services and analyze supply and demand for each specialty. It is concluded that the continued application of regulation rules of a reasonable price for education will contribute to the development of competitive educational environment, increase the responsibility of participants in the educational process, and will contribute to financial stability of HEIs.

The aim of this article is to assess the effectiveness of Polish higher education didactic activity in the academic year 2014/15 in the context of demographic changes and internationalisation of higher education. The research was conducted using the SBM-Min and SBM-Max models of non-parametric DEA method, based on the CSO data. Depending on the chosen model the value of revenues from educational activities or the number of teachers was assumed as the expenditure of a higher school, and the number of students or graduates as the effects. The results indicate that the majority of the examined units were more effective in the model SBM-Max than SBM-Min. A group of public higher education institutions is effective and consistent with each other to a considerable extent.

RESUMOA pandemia por SARS-CoV-2 colocou grandes desafios às instituições de ensino superior (IES), e o Politécnico de Leiria não ficou imune a esta crise. Num contexto em que a educação ao longo da vida faz parte das agendas políticas nacionais e internacionais, as instituições de ensino superior portuguesas têm vindo a reconhecer a importância desse paradigma, proporcionando momentos formativos e de partilha intergeracional para públicos diversificados. Com este artigo pretende-se perceber o processo de adaptação a contextos de ensino a distância pelos estudantes de uma formação sénior - o Programa 60+, do Politécnico de Leiria -, perante a situação pandémica. A partir de um estudo de caso, de contornos descritivo-exploratório, procuramos refletir sobre os processos de mudança de um sistema de ensino tradicional e presencial para a utilização de metodologias de ensino e aprendizagem suportadas por ferramentas digitais. Participaram no estudo 35 estudantes seniores inscritos no 2º semestre do ano letivo 2019/2020. Concluiu-se que a maioria dos respondentes sentiu dificuldades na adaptação ao novo contexto que se impôs de forma inesperada. Mais de metade não participou nas atividades a distância e afirma preferir as atividades presenciais. Dos que participaram nas atividades a distância, a maioria não sentiu dificuldade no acesso às plataformas e na utilização das ferramentas digitais, o que permite evidenciar a importância da formação neste domínio. Resultados que vão ao encontro das orientações nacionais e internacionais para a adoção de estratégias que promovam a literacia digital.Palavras-chave: Educação ao longo da vida. Ensino a distância. Seniores.ABSTRACTThe SARS-CoV-2 pandemic posed major challenges for higher education institutions (HEIs) and the Polytechnic of Leiria was not immune to this crisis. In a context in which lifelong education is part of national and international political agendas, Portuguese higher education institutions have been recognizing the importance of this paradigm, providing training and intergenerational moments of sharing for diverse audiences. This article intends to understand the adaptation process to home online schooling by students of a senior training - the Program 60+, from the Polytechnic of Leiria -, in the face of the pandemic situation. Based on a descriptive-exploratory case study, we seek to reflect on the process of changing from a traditional and face-to-face teaching system to the use of teaching and learning methodologies supported by digital tools. Thirty-five senior students, enrolled in the second semester of the academic year 2019/2020, participated in the study. We concluded that most subjects experienced difficulties in adapting to the new context that was imposed upon themselves unexpectedly. More than half did not participate in the proposed online activities and claim to prefer face-to-face activities. The majority of those who participated in the online activities did not experience difficulties in accessing the platforms and in the use of digital tools, which highlights the importance of training in this sort of learning. These results are in line with the national and international guidelines for the adoption of strategies that promote digital literacy.Keywords: Lifelong education. Distance learning. Seniors

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, higher education institutions were forced to make difficult decisions regarding the 2020–2021 academic year. Many institutions decided to have courses in an online remote format, others decided to attempt an in-person experience, while still others took a hybrid approach. Hope College (Holland, MI) decided that an in-person semester would be safer and more equitable for students. To achieve this at a residential college required broad collaboration across multiple stakeholders. Here, we share lessons learned and detail Hope College's model, including wastewater surveillance, comprehensive testing, contact tracing, and isolation procedures that allowed us to deliver on our commitment of an in-person, residential college experience.
