Marketing is one of the fastest-growing employment areas within commerce. Most of the growth lies in the role of digital technologies and in promoting sustainability rather than consumerism. However, students with mostly theoretical knowledge, even if in these areas, may not necessarily satisfy this demand, nor will students armed with strategic knowledge that is not required in entry-level jobs. There is increased demand from the marketing industry for job-ready graduates with both technical and multidisciplinary soft skills. Thus, the purpose of this paper is to reflect on the relevance of marketing education in universities in Australia, New Zealand and the Asia-Pacific region. At the beginning of this new decade and following a global health pandemic that has severely impacted the university sector, the time is right for such a reflection. Specifically, we reflect on how we teach and what we teach. Under how we teach, we consider two main issues: online learning and the role of industry certifications. Under what we teach, we consider three main issues: content relevance, soft skills and industry experience. We conclude with key questions for individual educators and marketing departments, and we provide some recommendations as to how, collectively, we can deal with the question we pose.

The Islamic University of Gaza (IUG) has participated in the Erasmus+ Virtual Exchange (E+VE) programme since the beginning of 2019. The international relations office, the body responsible for managing the programme at IUG, noticed that there was a positive change in participants’ knowledge and perceptions about VE and its role in enhancing their academic competencies and soft skills during the spring and autumn 2019 terms. As a result, IUG conducted an in-depth study to explore the role of a VE programme at the university in enhancing the students’ cultural understanding, cross-cultural communication, and collaboration while engaging in project based learning.

With the undeniable impact on the yield, the exploitation of collective skills in companies has become, today, inevitable. Web 2.0 seems to offer powerful tools for the formal and efficient management of these skills. However, this requires a new professional act which is generally lacking. The university is therefore called upon to rethink its training practices by acquiring a smart educational and professional social network capable of developing in the student the profile adapted to the collaborative version of companies 2.0. Describing what exists in this area and proposing a techno-pedagogical contribution relating to the role of University 2.0, these are the two objectives that this research targets.

The source of expertise is a teacher. A teacher plays an important role in the production and growth of nations. Nobody has ever denied the importance of a teacher in the evolution of humanity and science. A teacher has been at the forefront of the educational system since the beginning. A teacher is respected for his contributions to the growth of the next generation, society's well-being, the development of humanity's spirit, and individual training. Every moment, the teacher becomes absorbed in instructing his students as a gardener intends to his plants. Teaching is a profession that has a prominent place not only in Islam but in every religion and society in the world. However, it is a universal truth that world knowledge has never exposed the true importance and status of a teacher in the same way that Islam has made people aware of the teacher's high status. The teacher is regarded with great honor and reverence in Islam. The glory of the Holy Prophet as a teacher is represented in the Qur'an by Allah, the Exalted. "I have been sent as a teacher," the Holy Prophet said. In Islam, the teacher holds a very high and important role. Since he is a teacher and mentor, Islam has given the teacher the title of a spiritual father. This study aims to clarify the role of a teacher in the light of Seerah and to explore how a teacher plays an important role in the creation of a person's personality. For this reason, an empirical analysis of the current situation and as well as the viewpoints of students of the University of Sufism and Modern Sciences, Bhitshah, Matiari were examined. The questionnaire method was used to gather data in the form of student opinions. Ten questions were produced, and 120 questionnaires were distributed among 120 students to learn about their thoughts on the subject. 80 responses were received from selected students.  The collected data was analyzed in the form of a statistical result; the conclusion of the analyzed data was presented in various diagrams. That is proven that today’s teacher is sincere with his profession and he is fulfilling all the responsibilities of a good teacher. Majority of students said that they are satisfied from the behavior and teachings of today’s teacher. So that is why the designed hypotheses of this research was proven wrong by the analyzing of collected data.  This research work can be significance work for readers and scholars due to its specific field.

The objective of engineering education is to educate students who are ‘ready to engineer’.  This implies that students should be broadly prepared with not only deep knowledge and understanding of the technical fundamentals, but also the pre-professional skills required to be successful in the engineering workplace of today and tomorrow1.  Part I of this paper includes a brief rationale and need for ‘engaged scholarship’ to help accomplish these goals, and the inherent need for a robust ecosystem to support it.  A summary is provided of the outcome-based objectives for the training of engineers as well as the industry-identified personal competencies required.  The role of the university in engaged scholarship is examined along with the benefits and impediments to its implementation.  A definition of educational ecosystem is provided.  Part II details the existing engaged scholarship ecosystem in the College of Engineering at the Pennsylvania State University, while Part III provides an overview of how this assortment of minors, certificates, programs, courses, and student organizations is being integrated and institutionalized into a strategic mission for the University.

Nowadays, the Industry 4.0 concept affects every area of the industrial, economic, social and personal sectors. The most significant changings are the automation and the digitalization. This is also true for the material handling processes, where the handling systems use more and more automated machines; planning, operation and optimization of different logistic processes are based on many digital data collected from the material flow process. However, new methods and devices require new solutions which define new research directions. In this paper we describe the state of the art of the material handling researches and draw the role of the UMi-TWINN partner institutes in these fields. As a result of this H2020 EU project, scientific excellence of the University of Miskolc can be increased and new research activities will be started.


Accurate pronunciation has a vital role in English language learning as it can help learners to avoid misunderstanding in communication. However, EFL learners in many contexts, especially at the University of Phan Thiet, still encounter many difficulties in pronouncing English correctly. Therefore, this study endeavors to explore English-majored students’ perceptions towards the role of pronunciation in English language learning and examine their pronunciation practicing strategies (PPS). It involved 155 English-majored students at the University of Phan Thiet who answered closed-ended questionnaires and 18 English-majored students who participated in semi-structured interviews. The findings revealed that students strongly believed in the important role of pronunciation in English language learning; however, they sometimes employed PPS for their pronunciation improvement. Furthermore, the results showed that participants tended to use naturalistic practicing strategies and formal practicing strategies with sounds, but they overlooked strategies such as asking for help and cooperating with peers. Such findings could contribute further to the understanding of how students perceive the role of pronunciation and their PPS use in the research’s context and other similar ones.
