The excitement sparked by the emergence of AI open platforms has encountered significant scrutiny from educators and educational planners, who have raised valid concerns about issues such as plagiarism, testing protocols, and the authenticity of content submitted by students. While these concerns are timely and crucial, it's essential not to overlook other pressing issues that often go unnoticed in the lived educational experience of learners, particularly within the field of social sciences. This paper aims to advocate for a humanistic approach with a focus on education in the generative AI Era.
Background: Multilingual children with suspected SLCN are often overlooked or their needs not accurately differentiated regarding the necessity of language support or therapy. The purpose of the study was to conceptualize, carry out and evaluate a local language support (LS) project within linguistically and culturally diverse (LCD) families and its effects on all collaborating participants.
Methods: Eight SLT students and one lecturer took part in the LS-project, alongside equivalent numbers of family liaison personnel. Students visited more than 10 young children aged between 2-6 years, and for each child 10 weekly home visits were carried out. Language enhancement was documented, several case studies with children and interviews with five liaison personnel conducted.
Results: All SLT students perceived changes in the behaviour and communication of participating children. Children in the case studies developed from pre-verbal to verbal means of communication and family liaison personnel reported positive changes alongside parental wishes to continue the support.
Conclusion: Local language support projects with LCD families can lead to positive differences regarding their children's communication development and better inclusion in mainstream society. SLT students benefit from working with LCD families and their collaborative support together with family liaison personnel, and vice versa.
Learning Outcomes: To differentiate the influence of language enhancement vs. formalized SLT therapy. To enhance the relationship with LCD clientele and collaboration with liaison personnel in SLCN settings. To incorporate life-long learning and intercultural sensitization.
This qualitative study focuses on assessing the “future readiness” capacity of three Peruvian Higher Education Institutions under the HEInnovate framework. The main question guiding this research is: To what extent can Peruvian universities be considered entrepreneurial and ready
for tackling the Challenges of the Future? The Challenges of the Future are understood as the challenges generated by concepts such as The Future of Work, The Global Skills Gap, Employability and unexpected and destabilizing risks of the environment, such as COVID-19.
Universities were studied based on 4 research sub-questions: 1) How do Peruvian HEIs rate in Entrepreneurial Capacity according to the HEInnovate framework? 2) What are the factors supporting or preventing Peruvian HEIs to accomplish their entrepreneurial potential? 3) What efforts are Peruvian HEIs making for developing 21st century skills, accomplishing Digital Transformation, and enhancing their students Employability? and 4) What measures could Peruvian HEIs take in order to maximize their entrepreneurial and future-proof potential? The research methodology used was mixed, applying first a quantitative assessment, and then
complementing the results with in-depth interviews. After presenting the conclusions, recommendations for policy action and for university management are given.
The Osnabrueck University of Applied Sciences has initiated a project to investigate whether and how dual study programs or even elements of it can be integrated into South African university study programs. The present part of the investigation presents the expert assessments of the demands and requirements for dual study programs and, based on a company survey, the existing level of information.
The significance of dual study programs in South Africa is still low, only a few company specific approaches exist, mostly in internationally operating companies. Nevertheless, closer cooperation and more company orientated learning is required. The willingness to participate in dual study programs was confirmed from all surveyed companies. Dual courses seems to be particularly suitable for technical disciplines, but are also suitable for some business courses.
