Since independence in 1991, Kazakhstan has had the aim to increase the quality of its higher education. The system has a strong Soviet educational legacy. By constantly reforming its educational system, Kazakhstan has attempted to become a part of both the European and the American systems. The credit system employed at Kazakhstani universities is unique. It evolved from a time when graduates of the Soviet educational system were required to prove their qualifications and degrees by calculating or converting their learning hours into international grading systems. It took a long journey before Kazakhstan introduced its own credit system model, preserving the country’s political, ideological, economic, social and cultural background.

Why Questions

Why are institutions of higher education interested in internationalization? The question was asked at a faculty meeting in our university college. A variety of arguments and opinions were expressed. Many “when”, “what”, “how”, “who” and “why” questions were asked. Some arguments were normative and altruistic emphasizing the need of helping to develop countries in improving their educational system, others took a more ideological stand explaining internationalization within a neo-liberal and globalized frame, and some arguments emphasized the importance of a comparative approach to improve the quality of national education.

In recent years, the system of higher education has undergone significant changes affecting the most important spheres of university activities: management of the educational process, its organization, which significantly changes the attitudes, incentives, motives and value system of the academic staff. In a number of cases, as a result of reforming the management system there are created special conditions that affect the quality of educational services. The task of investigating the consequences of the ongoing reforms is being actualized in order to identify the main factors that restrain the growth of quality. To solve this problem there has been made comparative analysis of the quality of higher education in Russia and abroad. Significant reserves of its growth in Russia have been revealed. There had been proposed a classification based on the scope of action: factors that operate within the educational system, but are external to the higher education; factors that are external to the educational system as a whole; factors acting within the system of higher education. The most significant external factor for the educational system is the low innovative potential of the economy, underestimation of the quality of education by business, which determines the aim of the majority of students not to build up human capital, but to obtain a diploma with minimal expenses. The factors intrinsic to the educational system, but external to the higher education system, include the lack of interest and unpreparedness of school teachers for working with gifted students, which is primarily due to the use of the results of the General State Examination and Unified State Examination for evaluating their work . The main negative factor operating within the higher education system is the distortion of teachers' incentives, the increase of their opportunistic behavior caused by the transition to a new management system for higher education organizations.

The graduation profile is one of the key elements for the accreditation standard of higher education. It mirrors the performance of the applied educational system within a period of time. The better it is, the better the accreditation will be. In support of this, a graduation prediction may be conducted to the academic database of the students. It is of pivotal to trace and classify the historical data into the data training and data testing, thus, to predict the on time-graduation. The step is importantly done to help decide the better management of learning processes. This study was therefore done to analyse certain variables applied to predict the on time-graduation using the algorythms of C.45 and K-Nearest Neighbour (K-NN). The data mining was done to the academic database of the students of the Pharmacy study programme, Pharmacy Faculty, Muhammadiyah University of Purwokerto by adding certain variables into the process. The data was then classified into the data training and data testing. Backward selection was done to select the best and most influential variables for the dataset. The study further resulted that by using the algorhythm of C.45 and backward selection, the accuracy of the graduation reached 92.75%. It is different from the acurracy the K-NN and backward selection showed that reached 96.14%. The result confirmed that the KNN showed the better accuracy than the C.45. It considerably benefitted the study programme to make better decisions on increasing the quality of services, in particular that of leraning processes.

With the view that the quality of human resource is the greatest transformational assest, the education of the Asian region strives in building a critical mass of k-economy citizens. Stimulating the educational system to move toward this direction resonates the seriousness of Asian institutions in seiving their traditions, overcoming their intricacies, and embracing uncertainties with positive anticipation. The presence of a critical mass of  academics postulates the urgency of changing organizational needs, and correspondingly increasing their absorptive capacity as  they respond to the intense competitive pressures being generated by an increasingly global economy. This paper explores the transitional changes the education system have rendered to boost regional integration. More specifically, it highlights the initiatives higher education institutions have adapted as they align their development thrusts to regional and national expectations. Likewise, it challenges local intellectuals to develop a macro perspective of flexibility while the changing educational priorities converge toward acceptable global practice.

PurposeChina has invested massively in higher education, reaching a mass system, envisaging, as a next step, reaching a universal system. Brazil is still an elite system but needs to create adequate public policies to migrate to a mass system. The purpose of this article is to analyze the paradigms for a mass educational system, with regard to the quality of education offered, and the prospects for achieving a universal system, with Brazil and China as a reference.Design/methodology/approachThe author applied an exploratory and qualitative method, through categorical content analysis. The data were collected through nine interviews with government managers, 15 unstructured (open) questionnaires to specialists in higher education and four student leadership.FindingsThe results indicate that the change from an elite system to a mass system impacts quality, as there is an inevitable change in experience. However, this modification does not testify against the mass system, as it is necessary for a nation to pass through it and structure itself adequately in order to reach the universal system, a path desired by both countries.Originality/valueThe study presented the reflections observed by the migration from the elite system to the mass system from the main stakeholders of the system in China and the prospects for Brazil to become a mass system. Additionally, it presented the perspectives for both countries to achieve the desired universal system.

Higher education in Ukraine, as one of the prerequisites for national security and competitiveness of the country, needs to be reformed, first of all in the context of improving the quality of educational services. Educational quality studies have confirmed that the educational system does not adequately address the needs of customers and those who receive education. In this regard, the purpose of the article is to study the theoretical aspects of the institutional provision of the quality management process of higher education. Methods of dialectical cognition, comparative analysis, content analysis and a comprehensive approach to the analysis of transformations in the field of higher education are used in this work. A prerequisite for ensuring the quality of higher education is the definition of the hypostasis of the relevant procedures, among which process, functional and evaluation are identified. It is established in the article that the institutional environment in the field of education is an ordered set of legally established norms and informal rules that determine the conditions for the functioning of institutions of higher education, structure the relationship between the subjects of the educational process and are formed within the educational system. The article deals with a wide network of organizations that form the institutional environment of the national higher education, which, according to the levels of government, are divided into international, national, regional and local. It is noted that state agencies for ensuring the quality of education have the largest share in the formation of the institutional environment of the educational sphere. This often leads to a conflict of interest of stakeholders, which can be solved by the introduction of the Institute of Independent Educational Auditors.

Higher education and improving the quality indicators of higher education is always a hot problem for all time. Education is the core of the country's society. Over hundreds of years, higher education systems have changed to match the level of civilization, the amount of human knowledge, the new pace of life and the development of information technology. . Many higher education methods in developed countries have applied very effectively and met many high educational standards such as ABET, QS - Quacquarelli Symonds, Times Higher Education, SARWU - Shanghai Academic Ranking of World Universities ... Using AI, Big Data has also been applied to minimize time dependence and increase human understanding. From the traditional education model, the world has come to teach online with the application of IoT. In this article, we introduce a new model of higher education that can be applied in the near future to higher-end IoT applications than online, distributed education. We call this the Distributed Higher Education System Model – DUSM. With application of artificial intelligence to make virtual environment in education, we hope have a big change in education to advance quality of education.
