Globalisation,mergers and ‘inadvertent multi-campus universities’: reflections from Wales     

Zeeman  Nadine  Benneworth  Paul 《Tertiary Education and Management》2017,23(1):41-52

Multi-site universities face the challenge of integrating campuses that may have different profiles and orientations arising from place-specific attachments. Multi-campus universities created via mergers seeking to ensure long-term financial sustainability, and increasing their attractiveness to students, create a tension in campuses’ purposes. We explore how mergers in Wales created ‘inadvertent’ multi-campus universities whilst attempting to increase their overall competitiveness. We highlight three tensions that mergers created for contributing to local places, firstly a tendency for internal concentration, investing for growth in metropolitan not peripheral campuses; secondly, to looking beyond traditional local campuses and creating external campuses (in this case in London); and thirdly, to specialise campuses on the basis of attracting external students not local needs. This creates a substantial challenge for managing multi-campus universities if they are to continue to be able to support the prosperity of more remote regions in an increasingly knowledge-based economy.  相似文献

Can mission predict school performance? The case of basic education in Oman     

Wajeha Thabit Al-Ani  Omer Hashim Ismail 《School Leadership & Management》2015,35(5):459-476

This article reports on a study that examined the relationship between the mission statements and performance of Basic Education Schools in Oman. The process of mission statement framing was also investigated. A sample of 161 school mission statements was randomly collected from the Ministry of Education school mission portal database representing 19% of the total population. A sequential mixed method of analysis was chosen. The mission statements being classified with respect to 12 themes of which the most frequently of them appearing Academic Achievement (74.5%) and the least frequent Scientific Research Methods (26.1%).

Results show that Learning Outcomes Excellence significantly correlated with a theme around Reconstructing School Environment (r?=?0.243). Also, Islamic Values and Ethics significantly correlated with Scientific Research Methods (r?=?0.221). It was also appeared that school principals spent great efforts on designing school mission statements that directed schools towards achieving their purpose and improving their performance.  相似文献

关于当前我国普通高中教育任务的再认识   总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2  

石中英 《清华大学教育研究》2015,(1):6-12

"普通高中教育任务"是中国教育政策文件当中经常使用的一个独特概念,体现着中国普通高中教育的价值取向,也折射出普通高中教育的功能定位和发展水平。建国以来,中国有关普通高中教育任务的表述,经历了一个以"双重任务"(准备升学与准备就业)为轴心,不断丰富和完善的过程。当前,随着高等教育的大众化和高中教育的普及化,教育界对于普通高中教育任务的表述,有一些新认识,也有一些分歧和争论。基于对历史传统和当前社会形势的考虑,本文提出关于普通高中教育任务的表述,应该在继承传统双重任务的基础上做进一步的扩展和整体化理解,具体包含"五项任务":为成人做准备(人格教育)、为未来公民做准备(公民教育)、为终身发展做准备、为升学做准备以及为就业做准备。这五项任务的排列顺序意味着普通高中教育任务价值上的优先性和前后之间的逻辑与实践关联。  相似文献   

Forging Habsburg Muslim girls: gender,education and empire in Bosnia and Herzegovina (1878–1918)     

Fabio Giomi 《History of education》2015,44(3):274-292

This article explores the entanglement of gender, education and empire in Bosnia and Herzegovina during the Habsburg period throughout the analysis of a unique institution: Sarajevo’s Muslim Female School. Established at the very end of the nineteenth century, this pedagogical institution was the only school in Austria-Hungary specifically devoted to Muslim girls. The article begins by presenting the development of the Habsburg Empire’s educational policy in Bosnia after 1878 and demonstrates that it was deeply bound with its imperial ‘civilising mission’. Through an analysis of the programmes taught at Sarajevo’s Muslim Female School, the article detects the model of ‘Hapsburg Muslim femininity’ promoted by this institution. By investigating the reports the teachers sent to the authorities, it explores how this school was perceived by the Muslim population. The last section is devoted to the schoolgirls’ experience of this school, and especially to their access to the written word.  相似文献   

A corpus-based discourse analysis of the vision and mission statements of universities in Turkey     

Ibrahim Efe 《高等教育研究与发展》2015,34(6):1110-1122

This article presents findings from a corpus-assisted discourse analysis of mission and vision statements of 105 state and 66 private/foundation universities in Turkey. The paper combines a corpus-based approach with critical discourse analysis to interpret the data in relation to its institutional as well as socio-political context. It argues that the mission and vision statements are marked by a need for reassuring their legitimacy and the demands of a growing tertiary market. The historical and cultural backgrounds of the development of universities in Turkey, as well as political and economic conditions, are also decisive in the shaping of mission and vision statement of universities.  相似文献   

唐朝民间佛社的居士管理     

刘丹 《宜春学院学报》2020,(2):6-13

佛教团体中最关键的构成部分,在释迦涅槃之后,并不是某位具体的高僧大德,而是组织中共同信奉的传统与信念,统而言之即“佛法”;因此民间佛社在当代管理学意义上类似于典型的“使命型组织”。以主要从事的佛事活动、共同趣向等因素作为区分标准,唐朝民间佛社大体可分为四类:诵经佛社、佛事结社、经像佛社与净土法社。这四种民间佛社各个具有不同的人事关系和管理模式;具备成功社邑范例意义的民间佛社,在完成接引信众、护持修行的同时,使佛教与佛法的目标趋向一致。  相似文献

Olivine-norite rock detected by the lunar rover Yutu-2 likely crystallized from the SPA-impact melt pool

Chang’E-4 landed in the South Pole-Aitken (SPA) basin, providing a unique chance to probe the composition of the lunar interior. Its landing site is located on ejecta strips in Von Kármán crater that possibly originate from the neighboring Finsen crater. A surface rock and the lunar regolith at 10 sites along the rover Yutu-2 track were measured by the onboard Visible and Near-Infrared Imaging Spectrometer in the first three lunar days of mission operations. In situ spectra of the regolith have peak band positions at 1 and 2 μm, similar to the spectral data of Finsen ejecta from the Moon Mineralogy Mapper, which confirms that the regolith''s composition of the landing area is mostly similar to that of Finsen ejecta. The rock spectrum shows similar band peak positions, but stronger absorptions, suggesting relatively fresh exposure. The rock may consist of 38.1 ± 5.4% low-Ca pyroxene, 13.9 ± 5.1% olivine and 48.0 ± 3.1% plagioclase, referred to as olivine-norite. The plagioclase-abundant and olivine-poor modal composition of the rock is inconsistent with the origin of the mantle, but representative of the lunar lower crust. Alternatively, the rock crystallized from the impact-derived melt pool formed by the SPA-impact event via mixing the lunar crust and mantle materials. This scenario is consistent with fast-cooling thermal conditions of a shallow melt pool, indicated by the fine to medium-sized texture (<3 mm) of the rock and the SPA-impact melting model [Icarus 2012; 220: 730–43].  相似文献
