The Swiss foundation "education 21" has been suppo¬rting cooperation between teacher training institutions in Switz¬erland and countries in eastern and southern countries since 2010, with the aim of developing global understanding and sustainability in education. SEEU and PHZG have seen this programme as a chance to deepen their partnership by conducting a joint research project in the field of learner autonomy, resulting in the current publication: Learner Autonomy in Higher Education. An International Confer¬ence at South East European University in Tetovo, Macedonia, in co-operation with the University of Teacher Education in Zug, Switzerland. Learner autonomy is an important and widely discussed field of learning, relevant not only in the context of primary and secondary schools, but also for teaching at the university level. It goes without saying that this issue is of particular importance For teacher training. As the project-leaders were language department professors (SEEU: Prof. Dr. Gezim Xhaferi and Assoc. Prof. Dr. Brikena Xhaferi; PHZG: Dr. Michelle Waldispuhl and Prof. Dr. Brigit Eriksson), the project focused on language learning. The aim was to collect the various understanding and beliefs of, as well as the attitudes towards forms and concepts of self-regulated learning among students and faculty members at both partner institutions. One of the main obje¬ctives was to investigate the amount of learner autonomy given to the students at each institute. Additionally, we sought to understand and reflect upon different learning cultures in the context of learner autonomy.

Quality of assessment, qualification and evaluation in higher education 

No review available on this record. Title : Quality of assessment, qualification and evaluation in higher education : conference proceedings Material Type: printed text Publisher: Tetovo : South East European University - SEEU Publication Date: 2015 Pagination: 178 p. Size: 23 cm ISBN (or other code): 978-6-08-450399-6 General note: Includes bibliographical references Languages : English (eng) Original Language : English (eng) Descriptors: Education - Study and teaching (Higher) Education, Higher - Aims and objectives Education, Higher - Standards Higher education Class number: 378.1 Abstract: These proceedings derive from the presentations given at the regional Higher Education Conference on Assessment, Qualification and Evaluation which was held on 20 June 2014 on the Tetovo campus of South East European University. This was the second conference on the theme of quality enhancement organized by the University. The intention of this conference was to gather in one place interested instructors, researchers, students, and managers, and to allow them to exchange ideas about quality in assessment and evaluation with their peers. It is heartening to note that this pressing topic—one with both professional and ethical implications in the work of higher education—is already generating significant and informative research in the Balkan region. Ultimately, quality of assessment, of qualification, and of evaluation lies at the heart of the teacher’s agreement with the students in the class and impacts on their individual careers as well as wider social and economic well-being and development. It is the hope of the conference organizers, and of the Editorial Board of this publication, that this volume will contribute to this discussion. The papers published here have been submitted by the presenters in expanded and elaborated form from their presentations; this allows each individual contributor, or team of contributors, to express the results of their research most fully. For the purposes of widest comprehension and distribution, the English language was required of submissions. As many of the authors, however, are not native speakers of English, the papers have been edited for linguistic coherence. They have not been edited for content as such. They do not necessarily reflect the views of South East European University, nor of the editorial board of these proceedings. They have also been represented to the Editorial Review Committee as being original contributions that have not been published elsewhere and are fully compliant with all appropriate scholarly citation. The Editorial Review Committee has published these papers in good faith, but the responsibility for proper academic usage and citation remains with the contributors.

The papers have been edited for linguistic coherence, but were not submitted for double-blind review. The conference was held on 12 June 2012 on the Tetovo campus of South East European University. It brought together a group of scholars from across the Republic of Macedonia, representing numerous disciplines, faculties and universities. It was an honour for SEEU to host so collegial and thoughtful an exchange of ideas, and to provide a forum for discussing the assurance of quality in learning and teaching. It was pleasing to note that numerous presenters contributed to developing the scholarship of learning and teaching outside their primary research fields.

The university in ruins / Bill Readings

No review available on this record. Title : The university in ruins Material Type: printed text Authors: Bill Readings, Author Publisher: Cambridge, Mass. : Harvard University Press Publication Date: 1996 Pagination: x, 238 p. Size: 24 cm ISBN (or other code): 978-0-674-92952-4 General note: Includes index (p. [229]-238) Includes bibliographical references (p. [195]-227) Languages : English (eng) Original Language : English (eng) Descriptors: Education, Higher - Aims and objectives Education, Higher - Aims and objectives - United States Education, Higher x - Social aspects Higher education and state Nationalism and education Class number: 378.001 Abstract: Jeremiads abound concerning the "betrayal" and "bankruptcy" of the project of liberal education.' Teaching, we are told, is undervalued in favor of research, while research is less and less in touch with the demands of the real world, or with the comprehension of the "common reader." Nor is this as some academics seem to believe just the lament of the middlebrow media, motivated by media commentators' resentment at their failure to gain access to the hallowed groves of academe. Forever deprived of the chance to sit on the Faculty Promotions Committee, such pundits, it is claimed, take out their frustrations on the University, constrained as they are to content themselves with huge salaries and comfortable working conditions. The causes of the media's sniping at the University are not individual resentments but a more general uncertainty as to the role of the University and the very nature of the standards by which it should be judged as an institution. It is no coincidence that such attacks are intensifying in North America at the same time as the structure of the academic institution is shifting. It is not merely that the professorial is being proletarianized as a body and the number of short-term or part-time contracts at major institutions increased (with the concomitant precipitation of a handful of highly paid stars).- The production of knowledge within the University is equally uncertain.
