Didactic support of youth project activities and social initiatives

Актуальность статьи обусловлена необходимостью изучения основных характеристик дидактического сопровождения молодежной проектной деятельности и социальных инициатив в контексте возможностей повышения эффективности данной педагогической категории. Цель статьи состоит в рассмотрении основных компонентов дидактики учебной проектной деятельности и социальных инициатив молодежи в единстве целей, организационных принципов, содержания, форм, методов, педагогических условий и алгоритма реализации. Обозначен ресурсный потенциал метода проектов для работы с молодежью, заключающейся в более широком включении студентов в социально-значимую для регионов деятельность в рамках «третьей миссии» университетов. Данные обстоятельства будут содействовать более эффективному раскрытию их образовательно-поискового, научного и творческого потенциала, интеллектуальных и профессионально-деловых личностных качеств (ответственность, инициативность, коммуникабельность, исполнительность, лидерские качества и т.п.). В статье обосновано, что молодежная проектная деятельность предполагает прохождение ее участниками определенного образовательного маршрута, в котором они применяют имеющиеся у них компетенции и навыки проектной деятельности, необходимые для решения реальных прикладных задач проекта. Раскрывается сущность гипотезы: образовательная и социально-проектная деятельность молодежи эффективна, если начинается со студенческих проектов, привязанных к реальным социально-экономическим проблемам территорий их постоянного места проживания (малой Родины), и выступающих в данном аспекте как личностно-познавательный и социально-воспитательный фактор развития профессиональных компетенций, навыков проектной деятельности и коммуникативно-деловой культуры.

Social Inclusion and Exclusion of Women Directors in Malaysia

Modern society is currently experiencing strong influences in the 21st-century that are shaping culture, structure and various institutional features. Although modern rational value systems supersede traditional ones, some traditional and modern values still coexist. The blurring of the modern-traditional values dichotomy is the result, even now in the Malaysian corporate world, shaping corporate and economic behaviour and practices. The social inclusion and exclusion of women in board directorship are influenced by traditional values as much as modern values, hence challenging male board dominance. Based on a qualitative research methodology, this paper discusses some empirical findings. Semi-structured interviews with 17 male and female directors from public-listed (PLCs) and private companies in Malaysia found the coexistence of traditional and modern values and related aspects that have enabled women to get appointed, empowered, and sustain their appointment on the PLCs boards. Modern values like rationality, efficiency, meritocracy, professionalism, and individuality coexist with traditional personalism, trust, loyalty and patriarchy (notably male status quo dominance). These values are portrayed through hard and soft skills, technical and practical business knowledge, some personality traits and professional business and work experiences. This social inclusion and exclusion aspects will drive the rise, withdrawal, exit or even avoidance of women as company directors of PLCs in Malaysia. This blurring dichotomy argument may hold for as long as the society subscribes to the coexistence of modern and traditional values systems in modern corporate Malaysia.

Pricing of higher education: The case of top-ranked MBA programs

Tuition fees of full-time MBA programs with similar structure can vary greatly from around USD $20,000 to USD $220,000. This paper explores the effects of post-graduation salary, reputation, and their interaction on such high discrepancy in MBA tuition. Using a unique dataset of international MBA programs, we found that program value is positively correlated with post-graduation salary. This relationship is stronger for more prestigious programs whose values are impacted more by graduate outcomes. In addition, this relationship is greater for North American programs, but smaller for European programs, suggesting a geographical effect. These results provide managerial implications for program administrators and universities offering professional business programs. These insights can be extended to other industries of intangible experience goods.
