Act now, privileged education, community incorporation

The European Union (EU) called on the Social Dimension of view of the process of determining a student in Bologna is the main point. But the concept of what it means?

According to a ministerial conference held in London in 2007, promotes the social dimension of social inclusion, reduce differences and even knowledge, skills and abilities to raise the level of society.

Also, in terms of participation, and social diversity at all levels of higher education at the end of the covers.

This is not only sounds like an ambitious plan, but these are very complex and perhaps an unfocused. However, it is easy to understand why it is called a dimension. Social impact of higher education in almost all decisions.

This loose definition has advantages and disadvantages. On the one hand, the possibility of interpreting the social dimension of the person gives their regional needs or circumstances. On the other hand, may be a barrier to the expected measurable steps is ongoing, but since it is unclear.

When the pressure of singeing budget cuts to higher education institutions to make more with less, they have to justify the value of a variety of purposes.

These activities weighted against each other in the training of people for active citizenship, social mobility, facilitating the improvement of the skills needed in the labor market or whether it's a high-quality research, and funds a competition to create a more efficient education system.

Rising unemployment in Europe in recent graduates, the job market has highlighted the need to reform higher education.

Unemployment is not caused by education

Three arguments are used to explain the need for reform.

In my home country, including Pakistan, Canada, the fourth country in which I was educated. After winning some credit at the university, I began my journey as an international student pursuing a degree in business, as well as by the United States and Dubai.

Various levels until I faced enormous challenges.

These challenges ranged from culture shock and adapt to the new environment of racial discrimination. I found myself laughing out loud at a given moment in Canadian comedian Russell Peters said blacks were present in the Middle easterners have to go through what I heard since 9/11.

One thing is clear, though: I was very relieved that Osama Bin Laden was killed. I felt like I had no clue what I should answer - often - "Where's Bin Laden" asked the American people to the south

Today the reasons people travel more often, than at any other time in our history. The spread of globalization has made traveling very important, but how it is viewed the trip for educational purposes? International students are now as travelers or 'our country's public education system' is seen as taking advantage of foreigners, as some say?

A few weeks ago, decision-making, the European Students' Union (ESU), the highest body - the board, comprised of 47 national student unions from 39 countries - a resolution calling for the scrapping of the idea of introducing a European Masters degree Loan Guarantee Scheme.

Earlier, ESU serious concerns about this new tool, all proposals for multi-annual financial framework (MFF) from 2014-20 as part of the new Erasmus he voiced included. ESU's exact position in the scheme can be found here.

The ESU policy as a means of support rather than student loans with scholarships. This is our firm belief that higher educations that receive public funding should be linked to a social responsibility.

At the end of the day, highly educated population of the benefits of regular training for skilled labor in general to overcome the economic consequences of an egalitarian society, because it means an educated society.

Four or five trees in a park. These apparently because of the current crisis in Turkey. Actually, that is not the case - to overcome the problems involved in the environment. About one person or party, there was only one; about freedom of speech was not live and against the dictatorship, and restrictions on people's lives. Let me explain.

Justice and Development Party - Turkish AKP - which has been in power since 2002 and the nation has won three general elections. Every election thereafter, increasing the percentage of the vote for the government party in the first place.

Moreover, in the last election in 2011, the AKP vote, this certainly seemed to be a lot of impressive wins half.

Railways, airports and so on - - and the massive investment in the health system, etc. During these years in power, they will not have a significant positive step to make Turkey more powerful, such as the improvement of infrastructure is huge.

30% plan to raise tuition fees for Armenia Armenian society can have devastating consequences; it would be strictly limited to students in gaining access to higher education.

Already in May, an average of 15% increase in tuition fees at many public and private universities. This is the proportion of a country's socio-economic development of US students pay $ 1,048 a year in tuition fees on the average nominal wages are only about $ 260 a month.

Armenian graduates have already been hit hard by the economic crisis and high unemployment, its future looks grim picture of the students.

European students are very concerned about the latest developments in Armenia, and the Armenian National Student Association, or to ANSA, to protect against this policy. June 21, ANSA European Students' Union sent a letter of support, all the major players in the fields of higher education in Armenia.

Employability is outside the bubble of economic growth has to be regarded as a concept. Higher education would not go for the labor market, but according to the needs of society. Higher education is a human right, and as such, it must be accessible to everyone.

The European Students' Union, or ESU, recommends that unites our society in higher education, in terms of development. There is no single organization responsible for the global development of higher education. ESU will be completed only in higher education to all people at their best, provide impartial contributions to the development of a puzzle.

As a young South African, I asked myself a curious question: Who is Nelson Mandela? I have been taught the history of the democratic South Africa, who was 27 years, a martyr imprisoned Nobel Peace Prize winner was the first black president - his great political reform, among many other awards.

Often, the admiration of the crowd, waving a colorful shirt with the knowledge that the man was accompanied by a picture of a month; Robin Island prison cell of a man looking out of withered; or a young man raised his fists in boxing attire.

But the 21-year-old male student who has ever lived, or the oppression of apartheid, Nelson Mandela who is the dilemma of the new democracy that has led to a 19-year-old man?

It was announced that the Islamic and Asian Civilization Studies, or Titans is, of course, would be made compulsory for students at private universities in Malaysia, he caused a great controversy.

Titan’s public universities in Malaysia are already mandated to teach all students. This move to expand the private universities and private universities in question are considered to have more autonomy.

Malaysia's ethnic configuration (except for the West), reflecting - Titans taught about Islamic, Malay, Indian, Chinese and Western civilization course. Historical content about "how we got 'talking - this is supposed to be covered in high school.

Surprisingly, such as subtle Radii Ramble several opposition members, not only acquiesced but blatantly supported the movement, the need for greater understanding between cultures referring to the multi-ethnic Malaysia.

What is the beginning of a new year is a good time for students and student movements of the practice in higher education.

Today, the European leader in the student movement to protect the foundation of its principles and to fight for - namely, that higher education should be considered a public good and a public responsibility.

. A reader who is ideas and higher education, the goals might say, this is not the case I would have to answer sadly, "but you do talk to the principles of common sense and what the purpose of all governments" - and there are indications that the decision-makers who do not believe in these principles There are discontinued.

Access movement grow old giants are starting to retire. It is time for the next generation and the promotion of universal higher education as an opportunity to take responsibility for proliferation, the fight for education, a public good, a public liability and as an inalienable human right.

International Education recently shown very clearly in two parts, the student movement is ready and able to take up the challenge.

In recent decades, as the move from the privilege of the elite of European higher education, mass events, organizations and governments to radically change the filter admission statistics. But the access to higher education is still something of the upper and middle echelons of society, largely remains.

The next step - the universal mass of higher education - the imagination, vision and, most importantly, the courage to ask the leaders of institutions and governments. Simply, it is impossible for universities to be able to act as elite institutions, and governments can no longer allow them.

As a young South African, I asked myself a curious question: Who was Nelson Mandela? I have been taught the history of the democratic South Africa, who was 27 years, a martyr imprisoned Nobel Peace Prize winner was the first black president - his great political reform, among many other awards.

Students for Quality for the project organized by the European Students' Union, student and identified higher education, in which students take part in the processes of quality assurance and to improve the quality of opinions about the study.

A team of researchers worked hard on this project for three years, and in October 2013, 31 of the final results of four research findings and make a manual download for free all been published on the website of the project.

Quality is a multidimensional concept

the debate about the quality of higher education has often been associated with the concept of economic indicators, such as the employment of graduates and efficiency led by governments.

The higher the quality of the policies that have been challenged to understand the concept of student unions, higher education institutions and teacher by trade unions.

Students are multi-dimensional understanding of the quality of higher education, the QUEST project, as was also evident. Most of the students in higher education are preparing for their personal growth and active participation in society as a way to move forward, and not just as a job-related.

It is the measure of the free movement of people, which is one of the principles of the European Union could also contradict the principle, the EU has suspended all negotiations with Switzerland in the current crisis to be resolved.

However, the Swiss higher education community more problems could develop as a result of the referendum, according to its implementation.

Education is reached, it must be understood solely in economic organization than good, as a tool for social development. Education markets instrumentalist approach that views education purely an economic assets and resources are set as follows prosperity.

The guidance in this educational approach, in principle, is applied to vocational training. In the 1990s, this approach to neoliberals in higher education, which was considered the only possible way to keep the prosperity of economic growth as it expands, it maintained.

Industry-oriented educational learning, teaching and assessment that takes the needs of industry, higher education is a public good and a varied set aside for the purposes of public accountability is an approach that reflects the needs of society as a whole. Standardization and harmonization of diverse education system causes.

For some years now, the implementation of tuition fees has not been a debate about the degree of international students in Finland. Registration fee and the ongoing trial of non-European Union students in the European Economic Area (2010-14) regarding the developments have been reported by University World News a couple of times.

In the trial, the current government (2011-15) during the regime of these fees had been in negotiations with the government every spring to discuss their spending limits.

Education exports and the 'necessity' fees

This year's surprise success story of the European Union's Horizon 2020 program of four universities in an Irish entry into the list of top-performing 50 universities. But how did they do?

you may be aware, the record numbers of students now attending the university. Therefore, to distinguish yourself from the pack to finally graduate and enter the world of work you have to find ways. If you launch your application or a new social media platform developed at the university, it is likely that many other similar skills and qualifications as they enter the labor market, while at the same time with the people.
As a result, you can get ahead of the softer skills you develop your career has never been more important, especially at a time when reports suggest that companies are favoring generalists rather than those with specific technical expertise.
