New issue of the magazine "Education quality"30.12.20
These days we bid farewell to the year 2020, a year that has been so challenging for each one of us, for the education system, for the nation, and for the whole world. This year has changed us through unprecedented challenges, and hopefully it has made us stronger and more resilient.
Global education faced a daunting challenge, though, according to data from many countries, education systems withstood it well: rapid adaptation to the online format, the use of hybrid learning wherever restrictions allowed, enabled the continuity of the educational process and the provision of students with knowledge and support in the most difficult circumstances.
However, it is already clear that a full return to pre-coronavirus era education is unlikely. Today, education theorists and practitioners around the world are trying to predict long-term changes in the educational system and in the field of quality assurance. The speakers interviewed in this issue, Antonio Serrano Gonzalez and Erika Soboleva, address this issue. The Quacquarelli Symonds study, published in "The Globalization of Education," is devoted to the same topic.
The completion of the 5-100 Project and the launch of the new Strategic Academic Leadership Program (SALP) are among the most important changes on a national scale. Read about the results of the 5-100 Project in the Competitiveness column, and the details of the PSAL are covered in the State Policy column. In addition, the results of the 2020 national project "Science" and the launch of the updated national project "Science and Universities" were discussed in December - it is described in the report from "Vuzpromexpo-2020" in the Event column.
In conclusion, the editorial staff of Education quality congratulates all readers and partners with New Year and Christmas and wishes you health, well-being, successful implementation of plans and new promising projects! See you in 2021!
