The selection of the most suitable SG with regard to a given learning objective seems to be less well addressed in the literature. This paper reports on the application a new Characterizing and Assessing Serious Games Grid (CASGG) in the higher education field with 41 graduate students to assess their learning performance according to one leaning objective using a specific SG. The tested SG was Star...
We face the process of High Quality Accreditation in two ways: one involving large amount of information (big data), including issues as: self evaluation, high quality, statistics, indicators, surveys, field work (process engineering), during several periods of time. The other one is related to information contained about High Quality: which involved the development of an intelligent architecture...
In the challenges specified in the objectives of the EU 2020 Strategy the place of microsystems and nanotechnologies (MNT) is not directly indicated but undoubtedly MNT go along with these challenges as well as with many areas of our life: research, electronics, environment, medicine, energy saving, sustainable management, waste disposal, water processing etc. According to the research made under...
Quality management procedures at higher education institutions tend to use industrial quality models to demonstrate effective performance. Such models evaluate resources and results, but fail to address the quality of the educational processes. In this paper we provide an overview of the most common quality management frameworks used in higher education institutions and discuss their application,...
