The subject of the research presented here is the language and content of the definitional terms, categories and concepts relating to museum education in the historiography of the topic. The article is a review that provides an analysis of selected papers on museum education, surveying the categories, terminology and definitions proposed by Polish, Ukrainian and Russian researchers. The study also involved looking at museum websites to review the descriptive terms, concepts and categories used in the sections relating to the museums’ educational activities. Finally, against this background the authors present their own approaches and definitions relating to museum education. The work is partly a result of the experience of the authors’ own common educational practice and investigations. The cultural contexts of museum education are significant and influential in the quality of the services provided in each of the surveyed countries and museums. The generalisations presented are appropriate to the specific contexts of the research reports and educational projects quoted.

The subject of the presented study is taken from a dissertation project by one of the authors who focused on the processing of archaeobotanical assemblages from the Roman Period. The main aim of the research was the reconstruction of selected aspects of the subsistence strategy of the population in the given period based on the evaluation of archaeobotanical data from various chronological and cultural contexts in a designated region, available to author. The analysed sets were obtained during field excavations primarily conducted in the last third of the 20th century and the beginning of the 21st century. Uniform methods of archaeobotanical sampling were not applied in the acquisition of these assemblages. Source information on the origin of the samples was considerably heterogeneous and, in many cases, distinctly fragmentary. This was the impulse behind the investigation into the question as to whether, and to what extent, the method of sampling affects the interpretive value of the investigated dataset and what are the limitations of the analysis of such a dataset. The principal aim of this study is not the archaeobotanical evaluation of samples, but rather to investigate a possible effect of their formal properties on the composition of archaeobotanical finds. The formal properties studied include the volume and the number of collected samples, and the spatial stratification of samples (context/feature). Intuitively, it would appear that the heterogeneous quality of this information may have a certain impact on the interpretive value of an archaeobotanical assemblage. We discuss the effect of the chosen method of sampling on the composition of macro-remains in archaeobotanical samples and assemblages with the use of statistical models.

At the theoretical level in the XXI century, two different viewpoints about the education of a person still prevail. One of them approves of the education employing tools, that have an impact on a person - the subject there is the teacher and the objects is the pupil. The other ap-proach accentuates interface between two equivalent subjects – the educator and the educat-ed person. The Lithuanian school is being reformed towards the principles of the educational interaction in conformity with conceptual documents. Thus a realistic contraposition of theo-retical approaches and raised educational objectives actually exists. Such kind of contraposi-tion exists not only on a theoretical level, but in practice as well. Therefore, it will be always important to research the educational practice and propose means how to consolidate differ-ent principles of the educational interaction in the reformed school. That is the importance of the selected topic. In this paper the educational interaction is understood as a dynamical intercourse sys-tem between the educator and the educated person. This intercourse involves pedagogical communication, pedagogical information, pedagogical requirement and pedagogical inter-course (Bitinas, 2006, p 47). The aspect of the research is to show how the quality of the edu-cational interaction is being handled theoretically and practically. It is done orienting school practice towards consolidation of the educational interaction that is typical of the humanistic educational paradigm. The basic quality elements of the educational interaction are compo-nents of the educational interaction that solidify the objectives of the education and corre-spond to peculiarities of a relative age range. Key words: education paradigm, educational interaction, educational methods, quality of the educational interaction.

The Subject

The problem of the improvement of the subject training of university students in the context of the transition of the Russian higher school to a multi-level structure (bachelor’s degree program, master’s degree program, and postgraduate training program) is important because of the new socio-cultural conditions that determine the need for rapid adaptation of graduates, as the development of the industry is faster than the full cycle of training for it. The authors identifi ed the following modern trends in the development of society and education: high rate of world variability, informatization of living environment, and globalization processes. These trends in the development of society in the context of educational practice determine the requirements for the subject training of students. The problem of assessing the quality of subject training is solved by the authors on the example of mathematical training of bachelors and masters in the discipline of economics. Taking into account the competence-based format of modern education, a scientifi c approach to the assessment of learning outcomes at each stage of mathematical training (subject, interdisciplinary, and professional levels) from the perspective of an open education system has been proposed. The competencies cluster of the mathematical component of professional training, considering the requirements of employers has been developed. Monitoring of the creative pragmatic skills of students which provide building of adaptive capacities has been conducted. The results of the pedagogical measurements show the positive dynamics of the quality of subject training in the changing socio-economic conditions.

This paper focuses on the understanding of service quality in the context of Vietnamese universities. It proposes an approach for measuring the quality of the higher education service provided by universities in Vietnam. Firstly, an exploratory study was conducted. Then, the set of items which were generated became the subject of a questionnaire that was then administered to 675 students of a Vietnamese university to determine the dimensions of higher education service quality in this context. The obtained results permit us to appropriate a measurement scale which is slightly different from the SERVQUAL scale widely known as the standard for measuring service quality. The results also show that tangible elements, responsiveness and assurance seem to be three specific dimensions of the higher education service of Vietnamese universities.

The recent reprinting of Álvaro de Silva’s 1998 edition of a selection of More’s letters prompts the author to examine the subject of Spanish translations of More, and of de Silva’s general commentary on More’s correspondence and on his relationship to other humanists. The author reflects on aspects of More’s personality as exposed in his letters and uses what he finds as a corrective to several biographical misconceptions. He points out the strengths and weaknesses of de Silva’s work and compares it with that of other translators, particularly Elizabeth Rogers, and notes the particularly Spanish quality of de Silva’s edition.

The aspiration to keep the synergy in relations between majorities and minorities repeatedly emerges as the cause of conflicts in social relations. It is also a subject of the interest of the multicultural education, particularly in countries of Eastern Europe, building contacts with the culturally and ethnically diverse groups to a wider scale. Relations in culturally, religiously and ethnic diverse societies, are becoming more and more related to the personal attitudes and a given policy. These issues acquire in the prison circumstances even greater significance, as given moods and personal attitudes of the prison staff create the pragmatic aspects of the professional activities addressed to the sentenced. Additionally, the key role is played by the quality of the penitentiary policy and the legal culture. The article presents the comparative analysis of the research carried out in 2016 amongst the prison staff in Poland. The subject of the research concerned attitudes that influence the decisive processes. The personal relations have been analyzed in the context of the relation with the sentenced Muslims. The aim of the research was not only to reveal the quality of the decisions concerning the sentenced Muslims, but also the sources of such decisions. The latter, in consequence, may shift, as the research results prove, towards synergy or discrimination. The diversification of the discrimination was one of the intriguing aspects, disclosed at various levels that not always explicitly concerned the discrimination of the minority.
