The Carnegie Classifications have played a key role in shaping higher education, and they are foundational in a variety of research and policy uses nationwide. Over time, public perceptions of the classifications have become increasingly focused on the research designations despite efforts to expand on descriptions of other types of institutions.…

Higher education institutions are increasingly aware of the importance of inclusive assessment, yet large-scale implementations of inclusive assessment policies and practices are rare. Why is it so tricky to design assessment that inclusively considers the diversity of students? This article argues that whilst trying to solve the problem of…

Balancing the contextual and universal reporting of workplace-based work-integrated learning (P-WIL) to capture, examine and explain sector-wide impacts, remains an unresolved challenge within Australian Higher Education. To address this, an action-research project was tasked with developing a prototype data schema that groups the typical elements…

This study aims to analyze the factors influencing the typology of Turkic words to examine the specifics of the way students learn Turkic languages in higher education institutions.

Whilst contemporary ideas of feedback provide multiple insights into how feedback should be processed and enacted by students in a recipient role, little attention has been paid to understand what it takes for students to provide effective feedback to others. This conceptual paper draws on literature from peer feedback and feedback literacy to…

Higher education institutions have consistently strived to provide students with top-notch education. To achieve better outcomes, machine learning (ML) algorithms greatly simplify the prediction process. ML can be utilized by academicians to obtain insight into student data and mine data for forecasting the performance. In this paper, the authors…

This study is devoted to the issue of closing the gap between the requirements of the market of remote investment entrepreneurship and the market of higher education due to the determination and use of the legal mechanisms of their regulation. To tackle the research problem, we use several concepts, theories, and approaches, including the concept…

The interest in Professional Development (PD) in learning and teaching in Higher Education (HE) has seen an increase in the last few years owing to the evolving role of HE teaching academics in the futures of students and their employment. In Australia, while there is evidence that research in learning and teaching PD is growing, these studies…

This study explores the nomenclature surrounding professional services staff within higher education in the UK. Taking a case study method, it uses a qualitative approach to understand the term 'non-academic' to describe the diverse range of professional services roles. Both professional services and academic staff were interviewed and there is a…

Higher education systems exhibit varying degrees of heterogeneity in approaches to undergraduate degree classification -- specifically for this Point of Departure: the wide variety of 'Degree Classification Algorithms' (DCAs) used to calculate students' final awards. To date, the impact of DCA variation remains an under-researched 'black box', and…

This study explored student engagement typology in Chinese universities and examined variations in the ability development across student types. Using data generated by a survey study covering 8461 undergraduate students at 53 Chinese universities, this research applied latent profile analysis to construct a Chinese student engagement typology. We…

Colleges are important providers of vocational education and training and in some countries they are the major provider. Although the international literature on colleges has grown considerably in the past two decades, it still consists primarily of qualitative descriptions of college sectors in different countries. Quantitative studies of…

This article delves into the challenges of institutional data collection processes in higher education, particularly regarding diversity reporting. The study this article is based on focuses on enhancing inclusivity by introducing a nonbinary sex category into the institutional data of a distinguished Chilean public university. In the Chilean…

Voice misclassification threatens the vocal longevity and long-term career success of voice students enrolled in higher education (HE) vocal programs. Not every singer possesses the musculature required to support the unique vocal fold density and subglottal pressure necessary to sing repertoire and roles associated with certain voice types…

Classifications are a basic tool for research, which allow summarizing the diversity of objects in a number of categories that fits the cognitive abilities of the human mind. Their relevance for higher education is emphasized by the differentiation of institutional profiles. Yet, unlike in the US, there is currently no classification of European…
