Study of factors which facilitate increase of effectiveness of university education

Abstract

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to study the factors which facilitate the increase of effectiveness of university education and determination of perspectives of their management for provision of maximization of effectiveness of university education by the example of modern Russia. Design/methodology/approach The authors define the notion and sense of effectiveness of university education under the conditions of market economy, conduct theoretical review, classify factors which facilitate the increase of effectiveness of university education, and conduct regression and correlation analyses of influence of various factors on effectiveness of university education. Findings As a result of the research, the authors come to the conclusion that the volume of financing of science is not a factor of efficiency of scientific activities of Russian universities; the most important factors of effectiveness of university education are the number of universities and quantity of academic staff. Perspectives of provision of maximization of university education effectiveness in modern Russia are related to management of human capital – academic staff of universities – and finding a balance of quantitative growth and increase of quality of university education. Practical implications Practical significance of the conducted research consists in the fact that its results could be used during development and conduct of the state policy for the management of effectiveness of the system of university education in modern Russia. Originality/value The research has high theoretical significance, as it contributes to the development of the concept of effectiveness and understanding of foundations of management of the system of university education under the conditions of market economy.

Measuring the performance of private higher education institutions in Malaysia

“…Previous scholars have identified several non-financial factors in measuring a university’s performance, such as the effectiveness and efficiencies of university education (Sahney and Thakkar, 2016; Albekov et al , 2017), input-process-output approach (Chinta et al , 2016) and research activities (Alcaine, 2016; Kidwell et al , 2000; Tee, 2016). Abdullah (2012) identified several critical agenda projects (CAP) that may assist the achievement of the Malaysian’s National Higher Education Strategic Plan 2007–2020.…”

Optimization Of Enterprise Logistical Costs In Conditions Of Instability

“…At the final stage, a joint optimization of logistical costs (transport and warehouse) was carried out. Reserve stock was entered for all merchandise groups to minimize the probability of stock shortages in the warehouse due to prediction errors (Albekov et al, 2017;Montlevich & Borodinova, 2008;Sterligova, 2019).…”

How do teaching quality and pedagogical practice enhance vocational student engagement? A mixed-method classroom observation approach

“…For example, in Cornelius-White's (2007) meta-analysis on effective teacher–student relationships, teaching quality is referred to some or all aspects of teacher–student relationships, such as the relationship between positive teacher–student relationships and student outcomes. Teacher effectiveness is defined in terms of students' learning achievements, where high-quality teaching practice is expected to have positive influences on learning outcomes (Albekov et al , 2017; Kyriakides and Creemers, 2008). However, the definition of teaching effectiveness can also be narrowly referred to as observable teaching behaviours (Maulana and Helms-Lorenz, 2016).…”
