This paper describes current research exploring the adaption of the Bridge21 pedagogical model for the provision of a Computer Science (CS) Continuing Professional Development (CPD) Programme for ...post-primary/high school teachers in the Republic of Ireland. This paper outlines the design of the programme and explores the delivery of two, week long CS CPD interventions delivered in the authors' home institution over the summer of 2014. The interventions were designed to help teachers develop expertise in areas such as computational thinking, programming and game design, text based programming and hardware configuration. The Bridge21 Learning and Activity Models were used throughout each workshop delivery and teachers were invited to use the same models in their own delivery of CS classroom activities. An Exploratory Case Study approach, using Evaluation Theory, informed data collection, coding and analysis procedures. Teacher reactions towards the Bridge21 CS CPD programme were investigated. Analysis indicate that teacher reaction towards the programme was positive and that teachers intended to use elements of the Bridge21 Learning and Activity model for CS delivery in the classroom.
Pregled literarnovednega raziskovanja slovenske kratke pripovedne proze v zadnjem desetletju se osredotoča na monografske publikacije in tiste antologije ter prispevke, ki so pomembno prispevali k ...izoblikovanju sodobne slovenske teoretske in zgodovinske zavesti o kratki prozi. Pozornost je usmerjena na metodološke razlike v obdelavi ter na tuje in slovenske referenčne kroge, iz katerih izhajajo posamezni raziskovalci. Ohranja se tradicionalno zgledovanje po preciznejši nemški literarni teoriji ter se dopolnjuje s sodobnimi evropskimi in ameriškimi referencami.

Information and communication technologies are being rapidly integrated in education worldwide. The aim of introducing Information and communication technologies is to increase access, aid ...instruction, develop 21 st century skills, and improve education quality. However, uptake faces barriers of costs, teacher training, and unequal access. This study focuses on key technologies - Internet, computers, multimedia, and smartboards- analyzing their potential to enable collaborative, engaging, and personalized learning. It also examines challenges like distraction, costs, and teacher issues. This research paper will examine how the transition from traditional classroom settings to technology-enabled learning environments has impacted teaching methods and the overall learning experience. It will analyze the benefits of Information and communication technologies innovations like smartboards and online learning platforms in modernizing education delivery.
Emerging data driven digital economy and Industry 4.0 transforms all sectors including industry, research and business. It requires new types of the general workforce and specialists that can ...effectively use digital and data technologies, variety of tools and global infrastructure services, and are capable for personal skills management and self-study. The paper provides an overview of the existing frameworks for competences, skills and qualifications that sets up a baseline for further research and definition of the skills for emerging data driven digital economy. The paper analyses the general profile of the modern agile data driven companies, their culture and required competences. The paper shares the experience of introducing professional and 21 st Century skills in the bachelor and master courses. The project based learning model is proven to be effective in this cases combining the student initiative and self-organisation given the well defined course objectives and reporting requirements.
Only recently have international relations scholars started to seriously examine the influence of collective memory on foreign policy formation and relations between states and peoples. The ways in ...which the memories of past events are interpreted, misinterpreted, or even manipulated in public discourse create the context that shapes international relations.Power and the Pastbrings together leading history and international relations scholars to provide a groundbreaking examination of the impact of collective memory. This timely study makes a contribution to developing a theory of memory and international relations and also examines specific cases of collective memory's influence resulting from the legacies of World War II, the Holocaust, and September 11. Addressing concerns shared by world leaders and international institutions as well as scholars of international studies, this volume illustrates clearly how the memory of past events alters the ways countries interact in the present, how memory shapes public debate and policymaking, and how memory may aid or more frequently impede conflict resolution.
Some higher education bodies still favor traditional assessment despite the advanced technology in the marketplace. However, the COVID-19 pandemic has exposed the gap between the contemporary ...marketplace, which heavily relies on ICT environments, and pedagogical practices. This research explores this particular gap by identifying the weakness and challenges in online assessment in order to form suggestions that can lead to reforming assessment in line with the 21st Century rubrics and skills as promoted by -Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the United Nations (UN). It adopts the GAP analysis, designed as follows: the ideal scenario of online assessment is presented, followed by the current situation of online assessment worldwide, and finally a discussion of both conditions to bridge the gap between the two scenarios. The paper concludes that the concept of assessment needs further changes to cope with the marketplace's requirements and the 21st century digitalized environment.
In the 21 st Century, students were not only required to have the competency and skill that the workplace need, but also competitiveness. Close competition and limited employment were the problems ...that were impacting lesser absorption of graduates in the work field. Another problem was less than maximum effort in decreasing unemployment because the focus was only to produce ready-to-work graduates. The correct solution in solving the problems was through Special Job Fair (SJF). Also, there needed an optimisation of SJF that acts as marketers and distributors for the graduated. This paper presented the role of a special job fair in distributing competitive graduates in the 21 st Century. This study aimed to find the purpose and implementation of SJF. Through this paper, vocational education could implement it to develop a creative economy in the 21 st Century.
