Governance of higher education - implementation of project governance     

Macheridis  Nikos 《Tertiary Education and Management》2017,23(2):85-102

This article focuses on coordination between governance actors in higher education. The object of the study is a department at a public university, seen as a multi-project environment. The purpose of this article is to illustrate and analyze project governance as a tool that allows departmental management to coordinate with the authorities, the board and the management at different levels at the university. The importance of project governance as a coordination tool relates to the expected function of project governance to coordinate with governance actors and to project governance implementation, which affects relationships between actors. Another finding of the case study is the importance of accountability both for functionality and for the implementation of project governance, and, by extension, for coordination with governance actors.  相似文献   

一个资源大国的贫穷之路——刚果（金）独立以来经济发展战略与政策评述     

李智彪 《上海师范大学学报(哲学社会科学版)》2005,34(5):118-123

刚果（金）是非洲大陆各种自然资源比较丰富的国家。然而，独立数十年来，刚果（金）的经济发展却是每况愈下，成为世界上最不发达的国家之一。以比利时为首的欧洲殖民主义国家对刚果（金）长期的殖民侵略和统治所遗留下来的诸多政治、经济和文化恶果，刚果（金）独立以后连绵不断的战乱和政局动荡，不合理的国际政治经济秩序，固然是刚果（金）长期贫穷的根源，但刚果（金）历届政府在经济发展战略和政策方面的种种失误，也是不可忽略的原因。  相似文献   

教育政策执行难的利益分析--以北京市流动儿童义务教育政策实施为例   总被引：10，自引：0，他引：10  

班建武  余海婴 《教育科学》2006,22(3):10-13

在北京市流动儿童义务教育政策执行过程中,不同政策执行主体存在着不同的利益选择。从地方政府来看,维护地方利益和部门利益是其政策行为的重要价值依据。从学校来看,保证优质生源、确保教学质量是其应对政策的基本立场。从家长来看,生存需要第一,教育需要第二是其考量政策的根本出发点。这些不同利益选择所造成的张力大大削弱了政策执行的力度和效果,不利于流动儿童就学问题的有效解决。  相似文献   

Impact of Increased Academic Intensity on Transfer Rates: An Application of Matching Estimators to Student-Unit Record Data     

William R. Doyle 《Research in higher education》2009,50(1):52-72

The impact of increased academic intensity on transfer rates from community colleges to 4-year institutions has been estimated only from observational data, with the possibility of selection bias. This study uses matching estimators to overcome possible selection bias and estimate the causal impact of increased academic intensity on transfer rates. Using student unit record data from Tennessee for the years 1995 through 2004, I find that taking 12 or more credit hours increases the probability of transfer from between 11% and 15%.

Resources for Science Learning: Tools,Tasks, and Environment     

Peter?W.?HewsonEmail author 《International Journal of Science and Mathematics Education》2004,2(2):201-225

This article addresses the question of how science learning can be improved. It recognizes that, while learners themselves are responsible for their own learning, the quality of this learning is greatly influenced when appropriate resources are available to learners. These resources are provided through a partnership between teachers and learners. Three different types of resource are discussed. Tools, in the form of computer tools and conceptual tools, make tasks easier and allow learners to undertake tasks they would not otherwise be able to do. Tasks can facilitate effective learning by creating effective spaces for learners to work in, embodying key aspects of the disciplines of science, providing effective and authentic opportunities for learners to learn, and facilitating a dialogue between learners ideas and their experiences of the natural world. Environment – the ecology in which learning happens – provides three sources of information through the human, social, and conceptual worlds. When key aspects of these worlds are manifested in the environment, they scaffold the learning of science content, the nature of science, and the learning process itself, all of which are required for the deep understanding of science that constitutes improved science learning.  相似文献   

Managerialism and equalities: tensions within widening access policy and practice for disabled students in UK universities   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  

Sheila Riddell  Elisabet Weedon  Mary Fuller  Mick Healey  Alan Hurst  Katie Kelly  Linda Piggott 《Higher Education》2007,54(4):615-628

This paper draws on a four-year longitudinal ESRC funded project examining learning experiences of disabled students in higher education in four universities. The focus here is on institutional responses to the demands of audit culture and legislation in relation to making reasonable adjustments for students with impairments. The data comes from institutional documents and face-to-face interviews with key informants within the institutions. The findings indicate that quality assurance regimes and legislation have had some positive effect on improving access for disabled students; however, local factors and type of institution also have a major impact on the way that national policies are expressed in particular contexts.  相似文献

罗骞政 《雁北师范学院学报》2006,22(3):110-112

忻州五台山区是山西八大林区之一,改革开放后,林业生产获得较大发展,生态环境得到改善。近几年由于林业政策的滞后性,农民个体造林的经济效益不能兑现,严重影响了农民的造林积极性,延缓了山区农民脱贫致富的步伐。本文在分析了现行林业政策的滞后性的基础上,提出了相应的法律规制措施。  相似文献   

Vocational education and the binary higher education system in the Netherlands: higher education symbiosis or vocational education dichotomy?     

Maarten Matheus van Houten 《Journal of Vocational Education & Training》2018,70(1):130-147

The Netherlands has a binary higher education system in which academic education and higher professional education at EQF levels 5–8 co-exist. There is also secondary vocational education at EQF levels 1 up to 4. In this paper, I analyse policy documents resulting from the Bologna Process and argue that under neo-liberal conditions, higher professional education brings opportunities for both students and employers, but also creates a socio-economic tension in terms of employability. The gap between higher professional education and secondary vocational education adds to the formation of a labour market in which higher professional education graduates are prepared to an international labour market but employability pressure is being put on lower skilled employees, creating unequal employability opportunities for vocational education graduates.  相似文献
