“…According to the United Nations, more than 1.4 billion students in 136 nations were affected by the shuttering of schools and universities to avoid the spread of COVID-19. These statistics are bound to rise unless a cure or vaccines are manufactured to forestall the massive educational disturbance of schools, colleges, and universities around the globe [6]- [9]. It was, therefore, creditable for the Thailand government to shut down schools and universities much before nations like Italy and the UK.…”

The research purpose was to conduct an empirical investigation into students’ use behavior of e-learning tools during the COVID-19 pandemic, a case study of higher educational institutions in Thailand. The study applied the UTAUT2 theoretical model. Primary data was collected using a structured questionnaire from a total of 1,493 students across institutions of higher learning in Thailand. Structural equation modelling (SEM) was conducted using AMOS. The findings indicated that student’s behavioral intention to use e-learning tools is positively and significantly influenced by performance expectancy (β=0.22, p<0.05); effort expectancy (β=0.14, p<0.05); social influence (β=0.20, p<0.05); facilitating condition (β=0.50, p<0.05); hedonic motivation (β=0.35, p<0.05); learning value (β=0.51, p<0.05); and social distance (β=0.46, p<0.05). Similarly, behavioral intention by the students to use e-learning tools have a positive and significant effect on actual use of e-learning tools (β=0.82, p<0.05). Learning value and social distance had the largest positive effects on the student’s behavioral intention to use e-learning tools. It is important for the higher education institutions in Thailand to consider them. They are major factors driving students towards adopting e-learning tools during disruptions as witnessed during the COVID-19 pandemic period.

Educational institutions are shifting from traditional government bonds to the dynamic landscape of Public-Private Partnerships and collaborative funding models. However, limited research efforts have been directed toward studying the effects of Public-Private Partnerships and collaborative funding solutions in education. The methodology of the paper involves a comprehensive literature analysis to examine the existing body of knowledge related to the implementation of Public-Private Partnerships (PPPs) in French language education. This study delineated the critical financial constraints faced by educational institutions, emphasizing the need for innovative approaches. Within the public-private partnership sphere, the study scrutinizes the effectiveness and viability of these collaborative arrangements. In tandem, the study covered perspectives on the multifaceted impacts of collaborative investments, recognizing the potential of these collaborations to ameliorate the financial gaps in French language education. The study proposed strategies for fostering effective Public-Private Partnerships, offered guidance for educational leaders and policymakers, and illuminated future considerations and emerging trends that may transform the funding landscape in French language education. The culmination of this study is a synthesis of key opinions and findings, shedding light on the implications for the future of French language education and the prospects of addressing inadequate funding. The study provided valuable perspectives and recommendations for stakeholders, policymakers, and educators grappling with the persistent challenge of funding within the sphere of French language education.

“…The study of the role of education in the world of work is not recent (eg Raymond, McNabb, & Matthaei, 1993) and has been studied by different authors and in different countries. The education and training of senior management has become an asset for the economic development of countries (Abosede, 2018) and organizations (Lis, 2021), allowing for sustained economic growth in different sectors of activity (Flores, Xu, & Lu, 2020;Li, 2020;Monteiro, Almeida, Gomes, & Sinval, 2020;Bak, 2018).…”

The competitiveness of nations requires several factors that must occur for it to attain sustained levels of economic development. Some of the most important vectors that constitute differentiators of nations competing globally are the qualification of its population, as well as the degree of sophistication, capacity for decision-making and strategic vision of its leaders and elites. A greater competitive ability of a nation translates into a higher capacity for wealth creation and a better performance on key items of social and human development. Often, small niches of excellence and strong leadership in key sectors are crucial, notably for the example that these examples of excellence signify to others, thus producing a dragging effect whereby other sectors and individuals are pulled in by inspiring role models and their examples. This chapter examines the performance of Portugal from different indexes, providing different perspectives, all related to levels of education and retention of qualified individuals, aiming to assess and evaluate the deep constrains that the country faces at a critical moment. Recommendations are centered around the key idea of a strong emphasis on the acquisition of knowledge as a catalyst for economic development.
