This study aims to show the importance of evaluating the teaching performance level of the University teaching members. It also aims to provide the suggested mechanisms for evaluating the teaching performance of the teaching staff members of Sebha University. This study was based mainly on documents and analytic description to collect information about the importance and ways of evaluating teachers with reference to some of the international experiences on teaching performance development. This study concluded that the absence of an experienced entity that would develop the teaching performance of faculty members is one of the main reasons for the weak teaching performance at Sebha University. Based on the results of the study, it is recommended that there should be a planned system based on measured standards and criteria for evaluating staff members to improve the quality of teaching in the higher education domain.

This article discusses the problems associated with the effectiveness of standardization and determination of all types of work of the teaching staff. The problem in this case lies not only in determining the optimal amount of funding for the university, but also in the search for approaches to its justification. Moreover, the literacy of these decisions directly affects the innovative development of higher education institutions and the calculation of salaries of faculty members. The influence of this factor on the payroll calculation of teaching staff, as well as the optimization of this process, is shown. The calculation of wages is influenced by a lot of factors that must be considered. Work on improving the system of standardization of the teaching load of a teacher should continue and develop.

Introduction. The implementation of the strategic goal of Russia’s entry into one of the five largest economies in the world actualises the research aimed at identifying conditions for improving the quality of human capital, one of which is the creation of an integrated system of training and professional growth of scientific and scientific-pedagogical personnel.The aim of the present research was to substantiate the statement that the strategy of reforming higher education inRussia leads to the loss of tacit knowledge in higher education as a basis for determining the quality of educational and scientific activities. This process has a negative impact on the formation of the system of training and professional growth of scientific and scientific-pedagogical personnel (both in content and procedural aspects).Methodology and research methods. The methodological framework of the research was based on a systematic approach and an inductive method. The following general scientific methods were employed: analytical review of statistical sources and literature on the discussed issues, generalisation and comparison. The method of comparative analysis was used to assess the dynamics of changes in funding standards of universities in Sverdlovsk region, Chelyabinsk region and the Republic of Dagestan.Results and scientific novelty. The author substantiates the validity of the thesis on the loss of tacit knowledge in higher education, indirect confirmation of which is a significant reduction in the protection of PhD and doctoral theses with a significant decrease in patent activity in universities and activity to generate income from the results of intellectual activity. It is proved that the existing system of normativeper capita financing is the main “tool”, providing the loss of tacit knowledge: the level of a teacher’s workload is increased that it is impossible to carry out research related to the courses, which leads to a decrease in the quality of education. A formula for calculating the number of students, which ensures the performance of the average salary of the teaching staff at a certain number of disciplines per teacher, is proposed. On the example of the direction “Management”, it is shown that even through annual allocation of 25 budgetary places the teacher of profile disciplines will teach not less than 5 academic disciplines. In the absence of commercial recruitment comparable to the budget and additional sources of funding, the number of teaching staff will be reduced and the number of courses per teacher will increase. The proposals for preservation and reproduction of the personnel potential of state universities, involving the changes in the performance indicators of universities and the development of financial instruments that stimulate their achievement, are formulated.Practical significance. The materials and results of the research paper can be used by education authorities to develop the university strategy in terms of forecasting the volume of reductions in the number of teaching staff and the income that the university should receive to preserve its human resources.

Students‘ assassment of the quality of teaching and educationis a valuable tool through which lecturers can find out what the participants think of their educational task. This is a kind of assessment which is embeded right in the centre of the pedagogical act and which brings together the principal agents pertaining to the university teaching system (students, lecturers, and the staff in charge). However, this form of assessment is disputed as it encounters significant obstacles, namely difficulties in terms of the management of this assessment as well as in terms of reliability and validity of its measuring tools. This paper aims at providing the necessary steps for an elaboration and a foundation of an online measure of evaluating teaching and education. Such a computerised evaluation is to be administeredby students who are studying at the Faculty of Science, Ben M’Sik - Casablanca, Morocco. To begin with, in this online tool of evaluatin we shall describe the stages of this elaboration, includingcertain chosen criteria. Secondly, we will show the way in which the functionalities and possibilities of an online tool of assessment can effectively be handledby students within an institute of Higher Education. In concludion,we end this study by providing a factor analysis of this computerised instrument: this is to be carried out through the most important measures, namely, validity and authenticity.

The aim of this study was to analyse the perception of teaching staff at the University of Jaen regarding the integration of students with a disability, and to describe the interventions they use to respond to the specific needs of these students, to examine the differences that exist in teachers’ interventions for students with a disability based on their faculty. To this end, a descriptive methodology was used (n =300 teachers), and the data were gathered using a Tutoring and Attention to Special Needs in the Classroom Questionnaire (TASN-Q). The results were organised in terms of the tool’s different dimensions and, in general, revealed that the teaching staff do not consider themselves sufficiently prepared to provide an educational response to students with a disability. The best-prepared teaching staff belonged to the Faculties of Social and Legal Sciences and Health Sciences. This study confirms the need for training in special needs processes to enable university teaching staff to participate in an inclusive model.

The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted higher education globally. Teaching staff have pivoted to online learning and employed a range of strategies to facilitate student success. Aside from offering a testing ground for innovative teaching strategies, the pandemic has also provided an opportunity to better understand the pre-existing conditions that enable higher education systems to be resilient - that is, to respond and adapt to disturbances in ways that retain the functions and structures essential for student success. This article presents a case study covering two transdisciplinary undergraduate courses at the University of Technology Sydney, Australia. The results highlight the importance of information flows, feedbacks, self-organisation, leadership, openness, trust, equity, diversity, reserves, social learning and nestedness. These results show that resilience frameworks developed by previous scholars are relevant to university teaching systems and offer guidance on which system features require protection and strengthening to enable effective responses to future disturbances.

Resumen La formación de profesores constituye un determinante estructural del progreso de los países y de las oportunidades de las personas. A su vez, la calidad del cuerpo académico universitario es un elemento fundamental que explica los procesos formativos. En este contexto, el objetivo de la investigación consiste en analizar la relevancia del profesorado universitario, específicamente, en los procesos de formación inicial docente. La investigación es de naturaleza cualitativa descriptiva que a través de una entrevista a 20 actores clave, emplea la teoría fundamentada y el análisis axial para un estudio en profundidad de las relaciones subyacentes entre las dimensiones en evaluación. Los resultados muestran que la calidad de los profesores universitarios es de la mayor importancia, en tanto los estudiantes tienen desventajas en su preparación de origen y, más aún, cuando los educadores tienen la responsabilidad de la preparación integral de sus alumnos y son el modelo sobre el que se proyecta el desempeño de los futuros docentes. Se concluye, que la calidad del cuerpo académico constituye un elemento esencial en la preparación intelectual, profesional y valórica de quienes ejercerán como futuros profesores, por cuanto los primeros son la principal referencia que los estudiantes tienen en su proceso formativo. Abstract Teacher training constitutes a structural determinant of the progress of countries and of people's opportunities. In turn, the quality of the university academic body is a fundamental element that explains the training processes. In this context, the objective of the research is to analyze the relevance of university teaching staff, specifically, in the processes of initial teacher training. The research is qualitative and descriptive in nature that, through an interview with 20 key actors, uses grounded theory and axial analysis for an in-depth study of the underlying relationships between the dimensions under evaluation. The results show that the quality of university professors is of the utmost importance, as students have disadvantages in their preparation of origin and, even more so, when educators have the responsibility of the integral preparation of their students and are the model on which is projected the performance of future teachers. It is concluded that the quality of the academic body constitutes an essential element in the intellectual, professional and value preparation of those who will act as future teachers, since the former are the main reference that students have in their training process.
