Download or read book Scientific impact indicators of teaching staff of Greek universities and higher educational institutions for 2017 according to Scopus written by Giorgos P. Kouropoulos and published by Giorgos Kouropoulos. This book was released on 2017-12-30 with total page 367 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scope: The classification of the permanent and non-permanent scientific and teaching staff of universities and applied universities – technological educational institutions which belong to the higher education sector in Greece. The classification take place in a single list and is based on the citation impact, bibliometric and other scientometric indicators according to Scopus database. Classification criteria: The first criterion for the classification is h-index indicator. In the case of equal h-index indicator between two or more professors, the following bibliometric indicators will be used for each paper author/professor: The number of total citations, the number of included papers in Scopus platform, the total impact factor, the number of citable papers/documents cd and finally the λc ratio. Information resource: Information related to the h-index indicator, number of citations, number of indexed articles and number of citable documents, are collected by the individual public profiles of professors in the Scopus platform. In addition, the calculation of total impact factor and λc ratio of each professor is carried out using the data of the Scopus platform. Methodology: The first step includes the search of the names of members of permanent and non permanent teaching staff for each faculty of all universities and higher educational institutions in Greece via their official web pages. The second step consists of two parts. The first part deals with search of the names of each member on the Scopus platform in Latin characters and the second part deals with identification and matching of each Scopus profile with the corresponding member of teaching staff for each faculty. In the third step follows the typing and transfer of numerical values, bibliometric indicators and other data from Scopus platform to the computer file and next the calculation of parameters cd and λc. During the fourth step, the classification process is carried out via Microsoft excel according to the above criteria. In the last fifth step, the real names of professors and authors are masked using a special function of the software, due to personal data purposes. Sampling data: The sampling period varied from 02/08/2017 to 06/12/2017, more analytically see Table 2. Totally, a sample consisting of 8715 members of teaching staff of higher educational institutions was collected according to the above step 1 through 3. Sampling error is equal to ± 1.07% in 95% confidence interval. Conclusions: There are 6144 members of permanent and non permanent teaching staff with h-index ≥ 5 and totally 8715 members of Greek universities and higher educational institutions with h-index ≥ 0. The average h-index for the sample of 6144 members is calculated to 14.8 ± 0.9% and the average number of citations for the same sample is calculated to 1221 ± 2.9%. The average h-index for the sample of 8715 professors is calculated to 11.1 ± 0.9% and the average number of citations for the same sample is calculated to 872 ± 2.9%.

With an initial submission of 98 abstracts, after the double blind, peer-review process there are 42 academic Research papers, 2 PhD Research, 1 Masters Research and 1 Work in Progress papers published in these Conference Proceedings. These papers represent truly global research in the field, with contributions from Australia, Colombia, Croatia, Egypt, Finland, France, Greece, Iran, Italy, Kazakhstan, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Russia, South Africa, Spain, The Netherlands, Turkey, United Arab Emirates, UK and USA.
Download or read book Sustainability Assessment Tools in Higher Education Institutions written by Sandra Caeiro and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-11-19 with total page 423 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book contributes to debates on current sustainability practices, with a focus on assessment tools as applied in higher education institutions. These institutions are challenged to carry out management, research, and teaching, and to create settings that allow developing new competencies to address the complex global environmental, social, cultural, and economic pressures with which current and future generations are confronted. The first chapters discuss issues of sustainability in higher education, namely the role of universities in promoting sustainability and the emergent fields of sustainability science and education for sustainable development and how to integrate and motivate sustainability into the university. Subsequent chapters present examples of sustainability assessment tools specifically developed for higher education institutions, such as the AISHE – Auditing Instrument for Sustainability in Higher Education, the GASU – Graphical Assessment of Sustainability in Universities too, the STAUNCH – Sustainability tool for Auditing Universities Curricula in Higher Education. The use of other integrated tools are also presented. The papers have adopted a pragmatic approach, characterized by conceptual descriptions, including sustainability assessment and reorienting the curricula, on the one hand, and practical experiences on the other, with good practices from different edges of the world. Sustainability Assessment Tools in Higher Education Institutions will be of interest to graduate student, lecturers, researchers, and those setting university policy.

Download or read book European Higher Education Area The Impact of Past and Future Policies written by Adrian Curaj and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-07-03 with total page 727 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume presents the major outcomes of the third edition of the Future of Higher Education – Bologna Process Researchers Conference (FOHE-BPRC 3) which was held on 27-29 November 2017. It acknowledges the importance of a continued dialogue between researchers and decision-makers and benefits from the experience already acquired, this way enabling the higher education community to bring its input into the 2018-2020 European Higher Education Area (EHEA) priorities. The Future of Higher Education – Bologna Process Researchers Conference (FOHE-BPRC) has already established itself as a landmark in the European higher education environment. The two previous editions (17-19 October 2011, 24-26 November 2014), with approximately 200 European and international participants each, covering more than 50 countries each, were organized prior to the Ministerial Conferences, thus encouraging a consistent dialogue between researchers and policy makers. The main conclusions of the FOHE Conferences were presented at the EHEA Ministerial Conferences (2012 and 2015), in order to make the voice of researchers better heard by European policy and decision makers. This volume is dedicated to continuing the collection of evidence and research-based policymaking and further narrowing the gap between policy and research within the EHEA and broader global contexts. It aims to identify the research areas that require more attention prior to the anniversary 2020 EHEA Ministerial Conference, with an emphasis on the new issues on rise in the academic and educational community. This book gives a platform for discussion on key issues between researchers, various direct higher education actors, decision-makers, and the wider public.
