The purpose of this chapter is to argue that all open and distance learning (ODL) institutions should carry out quality assurance and accreditation processes in order for students and funders to have confidence in them. It also explains in detail what quality assurance and accreditation entails in ODL. This chapter follows a qualitative approach in understanding quality assurance and accreditation in ODL. Data were collected via literature review. During recent decades, the discourse and practices of systematic quality assurance and quality control have spread around the world, resulting to a great extent in market-based models related to the ideology and policy of neo-liberalism and expressed in economic rationalities such as new public management, total quality management, public choice, and human capital. Quality assurance and accreditation in ODL aims to maintain and raise the quality of education and to guarantee the improvement of its standards.
本章的目的是论证所有开放和远程学习(ODL)机构应该进行质量保证和认证过程,以便学生和资助者对他们有信心。它还详细解释了ODL中的质量保证和认证。本章遵循定性的方法来理解ODL的质量保证和认证。通过文献回顾收集资料。近几十年来,系统质量保证和质量控制的话语和实践在世界范围内传播开来,在很大程度上产生了与新自由主义意识形态和政策相关的市场化模式,并表现为新公共管理、全面质量管理、公共选择和人力资本等经济理性。对外汉语教学的质量保证和认证旨在维持和提高教育质量,并保证教育水平的提高。

This chapter provides a detailed literature review exploring the importance of data-driven decision-making processes in current Australian school improvement processes within a context of evidence-based organizational change and development. An investigation into the concept of decision-making and its effect on organizational culture is conducted as change and development are considered to be the new constants in the current discourse around continuous school improvement in schools. In a close examination of literature, this chapter investigates how key factors such as collaboration, communication, and organizational trust are achieved through data-driven decision-making within continuous school improvement processes. The critical role of leadership in sustaining data cultures is also examined for its direct impact on continuous school improvement processes based on evidence-based organizational change and development practices. Future implications of data-driven decision-making to sustain continuous school improvement and accountability processes in Australian schools are discussed.

Democratic Citizenship Education in South Africa 南非的民主公民教育
Pub Date : 1900-01-01 DOI: 10.4018/978-1-5225-7110-0.CH002
N. Davids
Underscoring the immense educational policy reform which accompanied the emergence of a democratic South Africa is an emphasis of the (re)alignment of rights, justice, and equitable access. It soon became apparent that, although educational reform aligned itself with notions of democratic citizenship education, inadequate attention was being given to, on the one hand, the capacity of teachers, and on the other hand, the willingness of teachers to assume responsibility for their roles as facilitators of citizenship education. The concern of this chapter is to consider the role of “the teacher” in relation to educational policy. Secondly, attention is given to the types of interventions availed to teachers in their roles as the facilitators of democratic citizenship education. The chapter concludes by showing that not only has educational policy reform been remiss of “the teacher,” but it is also this inattention that continues to undermine the democratic agenda within schools and beyond.
伴随着民主南非的出现而进行的巨大的教育政策改革强调的是权利、正义和公平机会的(重新)统一。很快就清楚地看到,虽然教育改革符合民主公民教育的概念,但一方面没有充分注意到教师的能力,另一方面没有注意到教师是否愿意承担其作为公民教育促进者的责任。本章关注的是考虑“教师”在教育政策中的作用。其次,关注教师作为民主公民教育促进者的作用所提供的干预类型。本章的结论是,不仅教育政策改革忽视了“教师”,而且正是这种忽视继续破坏着学校内外的民主议程。

Currently the development of countries has acquired importance as a result of the process of economic globalization, which has established various challenges to the economic activities worldwide. So numerical, mathematical and digital competences, are very important to participating fully in the knowledge society. Thus, the chapter proposal considers Checkland's Methodology as an oriented alternative to analyze the object of study in situations with a high rate of human intervention such as education. The chapter proposal will be organized into three sections: the first one related to the factors involved in school performance, the quality of education and the impact that have the math skills at middle school; the second focused on the characteristics of the methodology of Checkland applied to mathematics, and the third, a key options proposal for designing to the students motivation for a better mathematics learning that allows assessment of the institutional management in performance in such subject and increase educational standards.
当前,由于经济全球化的进程,各国的发展变得越来越重要,这给世界范围内的经济活动带来了各种挑战。所以数字,数学和数字能力,对于充分参与知识社会是非常重要的。因此,本章的建议认为Checkland的方法论是一种有针对性的替代方法,可以在教育等人为干预率高的情况下分析研究对象。章节建议将分为三个部分:第一部分涉及学校成绩、教育质量和中学数学技能的影响因素;第二部分侧重于Checkland方法应用于数学的特点,第三部分侧重于设计学生更好的数学学习动机的关键选项建议,以便评估机构管理在这一学科中的表现并提高教育标准。

This questionnaire study, involving 4,903 final year undergraduate students in China, investigated Chinese students' intention to seek foreign postgraduate education. Drawing on college choice models and “push-pull” models, this research presented a comprehensive model to explain Chinese college students' choices of foreign education. Logistic regression analysis showed that personal academic performance, foreign language proficiency, family socio-economic status, institutional factors, and quality of foreign education had significant impact on the intention to study abroad. The students' outward mobility was also driven by their dissatisfaction with domestic postgraduate education. The participants' perception of the academic quality of postgraduate education in the USA was the most positive, followed respectively by the UK, Hong Kong, and Australia. Theoretically, the research indicated that it was the “push-pull” pairs, as exemplified by dissatisfaction with domestic postgraduate education and perceived positive images of foreign postgraduate education, that led to Chinese students' decision to study abroad and their selection of specific study destinations. This study has implications for recruitment and retention of Chinese students in higher education institutions both in and outside China.
本问卷研究涉及4903名中国本科毕业班学生,调查中国学生寻求国外研究生教育的意向。本研究利用大学选择模型和“推拉”模型,提出了一个综合的模型来解释中国大学生的留学选择。Logistic回归分析显示,个人学习成绩、外语水平、家庭社会经济地位、制度因素和国外教育质量对留学意愿有显著影响。学生向外流动的另一个原因是他们对国内研究生教育的不满。参与者对美国研究生教育学术质量的看法是最积极的,其次是英国、香港和澳大利亚。从理论上讲,研究表明,正是“推拉”对,如对国内研究生教育的不满和对国外研究生教育的积极印象,导致了中国学生出国留学的决定和他们对特定留学目的地的选择。本研究对国内外高等教育机构招收和保留中国学生具有启示意义。

This chapter presents a cultural diagnosis of three schools of differing effectiveness states – ‘excelling', ‘mostly effective' and ‘under academic watch' within Trinidad, which face socio-economic challenges. It utilizes a multi-method, multiple case study approach and presents an adapted conceptualization of school culture, which is used as an analytical framework to diagnose the professional orientation of teachers within the cultures of the participating schools. Findings reveal that teachers' professional orientation, particularly their dispositions and psychological states, are critically important to many aspects of schooling, including students' orientations and their academic performance and achievement.
本章介绍了特立尼达三所学校的文化诊断,这些学校具有不同的效率状态——“优秀”、“大部分有效”和“在学术监督下”,它们面临着社会经济挑战。它采用了多方法、多案例研究的方法,提出了一个适应的学校文化概念,并将其作为一个分析框架来诊断参与学校文化中的教师的专业取向。研究结果表明,教师的专业取向,特别是他们的性格和心理状态,对学校教育的许多方面都至关重要,包括学生的取向和他们的学业表现和成就。

The purpose of this literature study was to investigate the impact of the knowledge and attitude of School Governing Board (SGB) members towards adoption of social justice and democratic practices for quality education in South African public schools with special reference to the language policy. Findings indicated that that bias is still a challenge in the institutions of learning in South Africa in terms of the implementation of the language policy by the members of the SGB. It was also found that increasing the level knowledge of the members; SGB members regarding social justice and democratic principles and practices with special reference to the South African language policy will change their attitude and behavior geared towards improved implementation of the same policy. It is also concluded that effective implementation of change management models can also coordinate the link between knowledge development, change of attitude and behavior towards effective implementation strategies of the language policy.
这项文献研究的目的是调查学校管理委员会(SGB)成员的知识和态度对南非公立学校采用社会正义和民主做法进行优质教育的影响,特别涉及语言政策。调查结果表明,这种偏见在南非各学习机构中仍然是一个挑战,它影响到南非国家语言委员会成员执行语言政策的工作。研究还发现,提高成员的知识水平;关于社会正义和民主的原则和做法,特别是关于南非语言政策的SGB成员将改变他们的态度和行为,以改进同一政策的执行。变革管理模式的有效实施还可以协调知识发展、态度变化和行为之间的联系,从而有效实施语言政策策略。

Building a Culture of Trust in Higher Education Institutions 构建高校信任文化
Pub Date : 1900-01-01 DOI: 10.4018/978-1-5225-5837-8.CH006
Magdalena Platis
Higher education institutions worldwide are evolving in a so-called quality assurance era in which quality standards are defined and implemented. Quality assurance has, in fact, two sides: one declarative, or formal, reflected into documents, proofs, and even statistics well prepared, and one practical, or informal, that behind all legal issues, the quality of processes is real. The contradiction between the two sides of the quality assurance contributes a false perception of quality and unethical institutional behavior. Higher education institutions can become ethical or more ethical through their people—management, academics, students, alumni, researchers. In other words, the culture of quality needs to be rebuilt towards trust. The objective of this chapter is to provide a clear insight to the contemporary state of higher education institutions' behavior and context to contribute to the building up of new quality management based on a trust in the area of education, research, and social development.
世界各地的高等教育机构都在一个所谓的质量保证时代发展,在这个时代,质量标准被定义和实施。事实上,质量保证有两个方面:一个是声明性的,或正式的,反映在文件、证明,甚至是准备好的统计数据中;另一个是实际的,或非正式的,在所有法律问题的背后,过程的质量是真实的。质量保证双方的矛盾导致了错误的质量观念和不道德的制度行为。高等教育机构可以通过其人员管理、学者、学生、校友和研究人员变得更有道德或更有道德。换句话说,质量文化需要朝着信任的方向重建。本章的目的是为高等教育机构的行为和背景的当代状态提供一个清晰的洞察力,以有助于建立基于教育,研究和社会发展领域信任的新型质量管理。

Social knowledge management is a framework that allows its users to create and modify content collaboratively using social media and web 2.0 technologies. Social knowledge management can also be defined as the management of social knowledge where it is aimed towards social development. India today is facing a huge rural-urban divide with regard to poor learning achievement at the elementary level in remote rural areas. Remote rural schools are engulfed with problems such as the unavailability of good quality teachers and a poor learning environment. In this context, the chapter seeks to utilize a robust social knowledge management framework to impart universal education in the form of both formal and informal knowledge to the masses in remote rural areas by mobilising free online knowledge resources and the dormant knowledge capital of educated senior citizens. It further illustrates the design and development of a social media based knowledge management platform named OwlishOracle that addresses issues of exclusion and unequal educational attainment through “connecting generations”.
社会知识管理是一个框架,允许其用户使用社会媒体和web 2.0技术协同创建和修改内容。社会知识管理也可以定义为以社会发展为目标的社会知识管理。今天,印度在偏远农村地区的小学学习成绩不佳方面面临着巨大的城乡差距。偏远的农村学校面临着缺乏优质教师和恶劣学习环境等问题。在这种背景下,本章试图利用一个强大的社会知识管理框架,通过动员免费的在线知识资源和受过教育的老年人的休眠知识资本,以正式和非正式知识的形式向偏远农村地区的群众传授普及教育。它进一步说明了一个名为owishoracle的基于社交媒体的知识管理平台的设计和开发,该平台通过“连接代”来解决排斥和教育程度不平等的问题。
