Authors: Chu Wei-Min , Shieh Gow-Jen , Wu Shi-Liang , Sheu Wayne Huey-Herng
Published: June 2020

BACKGROUND

The battle against COVID-19 remains ongoing, and social media has played an important role during the crisis for both communication and health promotion, particularly for health care organizations. Taiwan’s success during the COVID-19 outbreak is well known and the use of social media is one of the key contributing factors to that success.

OBJECTIVE

This nationwide observational study in Taiwan aimed to explore the use of Facebook by academic medical centers during the COVID-19 pandemic.

METHODS

We conducted a nationwide observational study of all Facebook fan page posts culled from the official accounts of all medical centers in Taiwan from December 2019 to April 2020. All Facebook posts were categorized into either COVID-19–related posts or non–COVID-19–related posts. COVID-19–related posts were split into 4 categories: policy of Taiwan’s Center for Disease Control (TCDC), gratitude notes, news and regulations from hospitals, and education. Data from each post was also recorded as follows: date of post, headline, number of “likes,” number of messages left, number of shares, video or non-video post, and date of search.

RESULTS

The Facebook fan pages of 13 academic medical centers, with a total of 1816 posts, were analyzed. From January 2020, the percentage of COVID-19 posts increased rapidly, from 21% (January 2020) to 56.3% (April 2020). The trends of cumulative COVID-19 posts and reported confirmed cases were significantly related (Pearson correlation coefficient=0.93, P<.001). Pages from private hospitals had more COVID-19 posts (362 versus 289), as well as more video posts (72 posts, 19.9% versus 36 posts, 12.5%, P=.011), when compared to public hospitals. However, Facebook pages from public hospitals had significantly more “likes,” comments, and shares per post (314, 5, 14, respectively, P<.001). Additionally, medical centers from different regions displayed different strategies for using video posts on Facebook.

CONCLUSIONS

Social media has been a useful tool for communication during the COVID-19 pandemic. This nationwide observational study has helped demonstrate the value of Facebook for academic medical centers in Taiwan, along with its engagement efficacy. We believe that the experience of Taiwan and the knowledge it can share will be helpful to health care organizations worldwide during our global battle against COVID-19.

The study objective was to evaluate the effects of extended postmortem wet aging of Australian beef, cattle diet, and their interaction on objective and subjective measures of beef flavor of the longissimus lumborum. Beef strip loins were collected from grass- and grain-fed cattle (n = 50 total) at a commercial abattoir near Brisbane, Australia. Beef longissimus lumborum were portioned and assigned randomly to one of 3 postmortem aging periods (45, 70, or 135 d). As each section reached its respective postmortem aging designation, that section was fabricated into 2.5-cm steaks, individually vacuum packaged, and frozen (−21°C). Trained panelists evaluated cooked steaks for numerous flavor attributes, tenderness, and juiciness; volatile compounds were also evaluated. Sensory scores differed (P < 0.05) due to diet, whereby grain-fed samples were rated more intense (P < 0.05) for beef flavor identity, fat-like, liver-like, and sweet but grass-fed samples were more intense (P < 0.05) for green-hay and bitter. Juiciness, tenderness, and 4 flavor attributes (bloody/serumy, metallic, umami, and rancid) were similar (P > 0.05) between diets. Extending postmortem aging from 45 to 135 d resulted in decreased beef and umami flavors (P < 0.05), along with concurrent increased detection of off-flavors, such as liver-like, rancid, bitter, and sour (P < 0.05). Volatile flavor compounds were more influenced by postmortem aging than diet. Increased postmortem aging time increased concentration for both lipid oxidation and Maillard-reaction–derived volatiles, resulting in the concentration of negative flavor volatile compounds rather than the absence of positive flavor compounds. Based on these results, differences existed in the flavor profile of longissimus lumborum from grass- and grain-fed beef, regardless of postmortem aging. However, aging beef strip loins 135 d is not recommended based on reduced beef flavor and increased off-flavor detection compared to samples aged 45 or 70 d postmortem.
Flavor Characterization of Grass- and Grain-Fed Australian Beef Longissimus Thoracis Aged 35 to 65 Days Postmortem

Published: June 2020

Our objective was to investigate the effects of extended aging on the flavor characteristics of Australian grass- and grain-fed beef longissimus thoracis. Ribeye rolls from Australian grass- and grain-fed beef carcasses were collected, randomly assigned to one of 4 postmortem aging days (35, 45, 55, and 65), vacuum packaged, and shipped under refrigeration (0°C–2°C) to Texas Tech University (Lubbock, TX). Aged longissimus thoracis were fabricated on their respective aging day into 2.54-cm steaks, vacuum packaged individually, and frozen (−24°C) until further analyses. According to trained flavor panelists, beef flavor identity, fat-like, metallic, umami, bitter, and sweet flavors were not influenced by diet or postmortem aging (P > 0.05). Diet influenced (P < 0.05) liver-like, rancid, grassy, and sour flavors, as well as juiciness. For all flavors except liver-like, grass-fed samples had stronger flavors than grain-fed samples. Postmortem aging influenced (P < 0.05) bloody/serumy, liver-like, rancid, and grassy flavors, along with tenderness and juiciness. Flavor detection typically became stronger for those flavors as postmortem aging increased; however, bloody/serumy, juiciness, and tenderness generally did not follow a linear trend as postmortem aging increased. Content of acetic acid and hexanal were each greater (P < 0.05) in grain-fed beef. The majority of lipid oxidation compounds were most prominent (P < 0.05) in samples aged 45 and 55 d, while content in 35 and 65 d were lower and did not differ (P > 0.05). Aging also influenced content of acetic acid and ethanol (P ≤ 0.04), which increased with aging duration. For 1-octen-3-ol, grain-fed samples aged 65 d had the greatest (P < 0.05) content compared with all other diet and aging combinations. Results indicate that aging up to 65 d had no impact on beef flavor identity and umami, but it led to stronger generation of certain off-flavors such as rancid, grassy, and liver-like.

Published: June 2020

Machine learning is a subset of artificial intelligence, and it is a computational method that learns patterns from large and complex data. The learning processes enable us to make predictions for future events. In the accounting and assurance profession, machine learning is gradually being applied to various tasks like reviewing source documents, analyzing business transactions or activities, and assessing risks. In academic research, machine learning has been used to make predictions of fraud, bankruptcy, material misstatements, and accounting estimates. More importantly, machine learning is generating awareness about the inductive reasoning methodology, which has long been undervalued in the mainstream of academic research in accounting and auditing. The use of machine learning in accounting/auditing research and practice is also raising concerns about its potential bias and ethical implications. Therefore, this editorial aims to call the readers' attention to these issues and encourage scholars to perform research in this domain.
Self-Healing Performance of Biogranule Containing Microbial Self-Healing Concrete Under Intermittent Wet/Dry Cycles
Authors: ERŞAN Yusuf Çağatay
Published: June 2020

Development of self-sensing and self-healing concrete is essential to minimize the labour-intensive monitoring and repair activities conducted for the maintenance of concrete structures. A type of self-healing concrete can be achieved by using microbial agents that induce calcium carbonate precipitation inside a concrete crack. Recently, biogranules consist of nitrate reducing microorganisms were presented as a new generation microbial healing agent and biogranule containing specimens revealed decent healing performance under completely submerged conditions. However, their performance under intermittent wetting conditions, a common case for various concrete structures, remains unknown. This study presents the self-healing performance of biogranule containing biomortar specimens under intermittent wet/dry conditions. In-house produced biogranules were incorporated into mortar specimens at a dose of 1.45% w/w cement (1.00% of bacteria w/w cement) and self-healing performance of cracked specimens were investigated under alternating wet/dry conditions for a crack width range of 50 to 600 µm. Upon alternating wet/dry treatment for 4 weeks, cracks up to a 400 µm crack width were effectively healed in biomortar specimens. Their water tightness regain was 44% better than control specimens due to their enhanced healing performance. Overall, non-axenic biogranules appear to be useful in development of self-healing bioconcrete for applications under spraying or intermittent wetting conditions.

Published: June 2020

In the paper the ratio between external and internal mechanisms of social regulation is analyzed. It is proved that in the current conditions the research of valuable and purpose aspects of social activity as major factors of a solidarization in society gains high prospects. The starting point of the presented study is the idea that global transformation processes not only do not enhance the solidarity of mankind, but also create a problem, precisely due to visible unification, not meaningful. The mechanisms of the interdependence of social institutions strengthen the dependence of political, economic and legal systems, but the direct process of solidifying global society is much more complicated. In this work, in the context of the goal-setting problem, an attempt is made to answer the question: how much are the modern processes of solidarity are determined by axiology.

The History of the Society “Technique for the masses” in the Context of Popularization of Technology in the USSR at the Turn of the 1920s–1930s.
Authors:   Sociological Institute  of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Sidorchuk Ilya Victorovich
Published: June 2020

The research is devoted to the issues of technical training and propaganda in the USSR of the 1920s–1930s through the history of the Society “Technique for the masses” (1927–1931). Its aim was a mass education of a wide range of industrial and agricultural workers and collective farmers with the technical knowledge necessary for the full development of new technology. The history of the Society allows us to get an idea of the views of the Soviet government on the prospects and forms of development of science and on the practices of building and working out mechanisms for the introduction of technology into society. To achieve these goals, a whole range of methods was used by the Society: educational work, various methods of popularization through leisure practices (exhibitions, movies, radio, etc.), support for initiatives from below, organizing circles, etc. Such a combination of types of work was typical for other large-scale propaganda campaigns of the 1920s and 1930s. The problems that became critical for the Society were also not unique: competition with other societies, insufficient financial support, organizational failures, and lack of proper support from third-party organizations.
Ottoman Plans to Close the Black Sea at the Beginning of the XVIII Century
Authors:   Kuban State University, Shapovalov Sergei Nikolayevich
Published: June 2020

The purpose of the study is to consider the importance of the East Azov Sea and the Strait of Kerch in the relations between the Russian state and the Ottoman Empire in the late XVII – early XVIII centuries as a special direction in the foreign policy. It gained relevance after the successful capture of Azov by Russian troops and Cossacks. The Russian state attempted not only to seize these lands, but also to open navigation in the Black Sea. This problem could be solved by the transfer of the Kerch fortress to Russia or the conclusion of a trade agreement with the Ottoman Empire, which gave the right to free navigation through the Kerch Strait. The unwillingness to allow foreign vessels into the Black Sea and serious concerns about the safety of the state’s capital led to the plans of Porta to close the Kerch Strait completely. The article chronologically traces the emergence of such ideas at the court of the Ottoman Sultan and attempts to implement them in the context of Russian-Ottoman relations and the real abilities of Porta. The scientific novelty of the article lies in determining the methods available to the Ottomans for the implementation of the plan to close the Kerch Strait from foreign powers, in chronological ordering of existing documents and materials, which reveal the essence of the research problem. The author concludes that the lack of financial resources and the timely actions of the Russian ambassadors at the court of the Ottoman sultan did not allow the implementation of a grand project to turn the Sea of Azov into a closed or half-closed reservoir. The normalization of Russian-Ottoman relations and attempts to penetrate the Black Sea peacefully solved the problem of unilateral closure of the strait.
Mishars of the Southern Ural in the National Policy of the Russian Empire During the Canton’s Period
Authors:   Bashkir State University, Kilmamatov Ruslan Ramilevich
Published: June 2020

This historical and ethnological research analyzes the history of the Mishars Southern Ural during the period of functioning of the canton’s government system in the region, when their estate and ethnic boundaries generally coincided. The historical aspect of the study reflects key milestones of this period between 1798 and 1865, with a brief historical excursion to an earlier period. The paper attempts to reconstruct the process of forming and developing the Mishars’ identity, taking into account the identification of factors that had a direct impact on this process. The scientific novelty of the research consists in the fact that for the first time an attempt was made to comprehensively consider the scantily explored ethnic community – the Mishars of the Southern Ural. Despite the considerable interest of researchers in the ethnic history of the Southern Ural, the Mishars of the region are still mentioned only in passing in research, remaining the least studied ethnic community in the region. They were called meshcheryaks, and they were a special group that occupied an intermediate position between other pripushchenniks and Bashkirs-patrimony. The processes that took place in the life of the Mishars of the Southern Ural are considered against the military-political and social situation in the province and the evolution of the canton’s system of government. The author reveals the influence of the canton’s period on the completion of the Mishars of the Southern Ural formation as an ethnosocial community. The study also focuses on the transformation of Mishars into a part of “novobashkiry”, which, of course, contributed to the blurring of identity. So, after the abolition of the Bashkir army, the process of transferring Mishars to the category of free rural inhabitants was accelerated. This research is relevant, since it has not yet been considered in the scientific community from such a perspective.

Authors:   Belgorod National Research University, Penkov Victor Yevgenyevich , Volochkov Ilуа Vladimirovich ,   International Academy of Troublehacking (IAT)
Published: June 2020

Various approaches to the development of theoretical sociology are considered in the article. The urgency of the topic is due to the fact that the present time requires conceptually new approaches to researching social phenomena. Various methodological concepts of the 20th century have not proved their value, and the modern science cannot develop strategic directions of the world civilization development as a whole. According to the authors, contemporary sociology should rely on the research program of studying social processes developed on the basis of the ideas of I. Lakatos. It is based on troublehacking, which is a methodology for improving systems, a set of techniques and tools aimed at inventing out-of-the-box solutions, and their application in practice. This methodological concept can become a new foundation for theoretical sociology, and its heuristic and creative capabilities require further theoretical study and practical use in various fields of social and humanitarian knowledge.
Cosmism of A.L. Chizhevsky and the Yakut Olonkho Epos
Authors:   North-Eastern Federal University, Popova Galina Semyonovna
Published: June 2020

The Yakut heroic Olonkho epos is based on the ancient space mythology of the Sakha people. In 2005 UNESCO declared Olonkho a masterpiece of the intangible cultural heritage of humanity. In this regard, Olonkho should be recreated and developed. The purpose of the work is to identify common general scientific bases in understanding the semantic tier of the authentic text of the Yakut Olonkho epos. Research methods: comparative analysis, logical analysis, generalization. Conclusions are made based on the comparison of eventful moments in the text of Olonkho with the theory of A.L. Chizhevsky, Russian cosmist philosopher of the twentieth century (1897–1964), “about a single world law that stands on the other side of natural phenomena”. Logical matches in the comparison items are confirmed. The results will be useful for special analyses of epic texts in the cultures of the peoples of the world. This is relevant for the formation of a holistic mindset of a modern personality.

Published: June 2020

The relevance of the study is due to the need to imple-ment a reasonable investment policy aimed at the pro-spect of regional development. In this regard, this paper is aimed at identifying the availability of production and financial resources in Karaganda region, defining the ef-fectiveness of their use, as well as revealing the invest-ment potential and the possibilities for further develop-ment of the region. The leading approaches used in the study are comparative analysis and monitoring of statis-tical information. Based on the data obtained, an attempt was made to identify the main trends and opportunities for using investment potential for the development of the region. As a result of the study, patterns associated with investing exclusively in industrial production were iden-tified, while the development of other industries is signif-icantly slowed down. In this regard, it was concluded that it is necessary to create favorable conditions and incen-tives for investing in the industries that are of the great-est importance to the population. According to the au-thors, it is possible to significantly increase the compet-itiveness of the region by enlarging investment in human capital. It is this approach that can ensure the further so-cio-economic development of the region, by obtaining and introducing new knowledge and their subsequent practical application.

The main as-pects of the research include the study of the influence of the changes due to the growth of migration on ethno-political process, the reform of institutions and technol-ogies of migration policy in the Krasnodar Territory. The recommendations to the migration policy subjects in the Krasnodar Territory are given.
THE PRESERVING CULTURAL HERITAGE PROBLEM IN THE REPUBLIC OF MALI FROM AN INTERNATIONAL POLITICS PERSPECTIVE
Authors:   St. Petersburg State University, Bulatova Alina Sergeevna
Published: June 2020

In this paper, the author considers the problem of pre-serving cultural heritage in the zone of armed conflicts. The destruction of cultural values by terrorist groups is a very urgent problem in modern international relations. It is sad to realize that the destruction of historical herit-age of the world is now actively used as a tool of soft power. Thus, the number of cultural heritage sites under threat is increasing year after year. As a prime example, the work considers the situation in the Republic of Mali, where a number of historical and religious heritage sites in the city of Timbuktu were destroyed during the armed conflict that began in 2012. The uniqueness of this exam-ple lies in the decision of the International Criminal Court in 2016, which recognized the destruction of cultural her-itage as a war crime. The emerging positive trend in this issue, however, does not cover all the problems. Preser-vation of cultural heritage sites still requires a compre-hensive approach.

Translator’s Notes from Paratextuality Perspective (as Exemplified in “The Secret History of the Mongols” Translated by Ardazhabu)
Authors: Zhang S. , Vaseeva E. A.
Published: June 2020

The theory of intertextuality has proved to be very useful in translation studies, as it gives a more precise view of the translation process and its result. Paratexts include all the elements that surround the text – titles, prefaces, epilogue, and the like, and also include notes made by the translator. Translator’s notes play an important role in translation work. They are an indispensable means for making the translated text comprehensible for the audience belonging to a different cultural environment. Notes fulfill various functions and have significant effects. The paper studies the notes made by Ardazhabu in his translation of The Secret History of the Mongols into Chinese. The function of elucidation seems to be one of the most significant in the translator’s notes of the studied text. But the translator not only explains and clarifies some parts in the source text, but also endeavors to guide the readers’ interpretation of the contents by presenting alternative points of view on some ideas. The analysis of representative examples shows that notes can fulfill more than one function and draw on various sources of information and reasoning

Переводческие примечания как один из видов паратекстов играют важную роль в переводческой работе. Примечания выполняют разнообразные функции и оказывают значительное воздействие. В данной работе исследованы примечания Ардажабу к его переводу на китайский язык эпического произведения XIII века «Тайная история монголов». Одной из основных функций примечаний в исследуемом тексте перевода является разъяснительная функция. Но переводчик не только объясняет и уточняет, он стремится направлять понимание читателями содержания, представляя альтернативные точки зрения. Анализ показывает, что примечания могут одновременно выполнять несколько функций и привлекать различные источники информации и аргументации
WHAT WOMEN STUDENTS WANT THEIR INSTITUTIONS TO DO TO MAKE ENGINEERING EDUCATION MORE INCLUSIVE AND LESS “CHILLY”
Authors: Hanson Cori
Published: June 2020

It has been over 30 years since science and engineering classrooms were first described as “chilly” environments for women. Since then many engineering programs in Ontario have worked to diversify their student populations with a particular focus on recruiting more women into engineering education. Despite the increase in the number of women enrolled in engineering education, incidents of sexism and microaggressions based on sexual orientation and race continue to be experienced by women in these programs.  In many engineering faculties in Ontario work on equity, diversity and inclusion is still fairly new. Members of the community who are marginalized need to be consulted in order for this work to be impactful on their experience. This paper uses an intersectional framework to present preliminary results on what women studying in undergraduate engineering programs believe their universities could do to make engineering education more inclusive. This paper argues that women students in engineering are still in search of a community. Our women students want more representation of women in engineering, further education and awareness of equity issues, acknowledgement of their experiences and opportunities to connect with other women in engineering.

With the rise of an innovation-based, technology-centric economy over the past two decades, there has been a shift in the market, enabling technological entrepreneurs to build business ventures that have realized accelerated growth and reached considerable scale. This “new economy” has created a need for individuals with a balanced skill set accompanying both business acumen, and technological innovation of complex systems.  In esponse to this need, post-secondary engineering education institutions are teaching more business and entrepreneurship content.  In Canada, most of the major post-secondary engineering education institutions offer some form of entrepreneurial education. However, approaches and programs offered by respective institutions vary in their approach to teaching engineering entrepreneurship, yielding a variety of different program implementations. There is, thus, a strong need to develop a Community of Practice focusing on engineering entrepreneurship education in Canada to foster a more rigorous and collaborative effort to evolve entrepreneurial teaching and learning.  This paper is a first attempt to document and interpret the current state of a select number of Canadian Engineering Entrepreneurship Education programs. The founding members of the Canadian Engineering Education Association’s (CEEA) Engineering Entrepreneurship and technology innovation (EETI) Special Interest Group (SIG) have collaboratively collected information regarding the current practice of Engineering Entrepreneurship education within their affiliated institutions. This paper examines the Institutional Context, Strategy, Business Infrastructure, as well as the programs employed for Teaching and Learning at both the Undergraduate and Graduate levels. Our goal is to present a snapshot of the current practice for which entrepreneurship education is delivered at the institutions for which the founding members of the EETI SIG reside, as well as, discuss how entrepreneurship intersects with the other areas of engineering education, for example, design, the maker space movement, and professionalism, as well as, many of the Canadian Engineering Accreditation Board’s twelve graduate attributes.
ONLINE INTERACTION TOOLS: IMPACTS ON STUDENTS’ PARTICIPATION AND LEARNING

Shyness, low self-esteem, and fear of peer/instructor’s judgment are among the common factors hindering students’ participation (e.g., asking/answering questions) in classrooms. In this regard, anonymous response systems such as iClickers have been used to improve students’ engagement in classroom activities. Although iClickers can enhance students’ participation, they promote one-way interactions only (i.e., students answering questions). Online interaction platforms are alternatives to traditional clickers that provide more flexibility for students and allow them to answer/ask questions in real-time. In this study, we investigated the use of an online tool that allows for real-time presentation of the lecture’s slides integrated with an audience interaction platform for anonymous classroom participation. The findings of our study provide evidence regarding the positive impacts of using this tool (e.g., improved classroom participation through asking questions and voting in polls) in an undergraduate Mechanical Engineering Design course. We discuss the potential improvements that can be made to the implementation of this approach in future courses to enhance students engagement when using this interactive tool.

Survey results and student feedback from the initial year of McGill University’s E-IDEA (Engineering Inclusivity, Diversity and Equity Advancement) teamwork initiative demonstrate that undergraduate engineering students value this team-based, applied training in equity, diversity, and inclusion (EDI). The course-based training provides a critical foundation from which to build strong teamwork skills. Our findings demonstrate the benefit of initiating teamwork-integrated EDI training early in students’ programs and continuing until final capstone courses.

• Students as Partners (SaP) is a pedagogical approach that challenges the traditional learner roles in higher education by promoting collaboration between students and faculty to enhance teaching and learning [1]• This work consists of the partnership between a new faculty member and graduate student partner (GSP) (not the course TA) to design assessment materials for a year 3 core Mech. Eng. course with ~40 students• Deliverables from the collaboration include adaptation of course rubrics (see below) and the implementation of the CATME rubric [2] for team evaluation• Rubric adaptation was in part guided from Brookhart’s book [3]

Published: June 2020

The present study evaluates the car insurance market of Cuiaba-MT, analyses the consumer profile and their predisposition to contract the protection service. It is a precursory study and able to generate important contributions to understand individual preferences because not all people adhere to this type of service. This raises questions to identify the factors that induce the vehicle owners to opt or not for the car insurance contract. The database considers an on-site survey, using a structured questionnaire applied to the car owners at Cuiabá, evaluated by the Cluster Analysis technique. The main results show a market with distinct particularities between genders; however, the income factor is considered a decisive element in the service contracting. Some secondary factors include the knowledge level, the lack of adequate technical and professional support, as well as Relationship Marketing, which also have an influence on the dynamics and in the growth of this market in Cuiabá.
ДИВЕРГЕНЦІЯ НОРМ ЧАСУ ЯК НАСЛІДОК АДАПТАЦІЇ ЗВО УКРАЇНИ ДО НОВИХ СОЦІАЛЬНО-ЕКОНОМІЧНИХ ТА ІНСТИТУЦІЙНИХ УМОВ ФУНКЦІОНУВАННЯ

Законом України «Про вищу освіту», прийнятим у 2014 році, було встановлено, що заклади вищої освіти (ЗВО), яким надано статус національних, мають право самостійно визначати норми часу навчальної та інших видів роботи педагогічних і науково-педагогічних працівників. До цього для ЗВО було обов’язковим використання норм часу для планування та обліку навчальної роботи, що затверджені наказом Міністерства освіти і науки України 21.08.2002 р. № 450. Після отримання дозволу на самостійне формування норм, багато які ЗВО з різних причин, передусім, у зв’язку з
фінансовими труднощами, стали вносити зміни до норм часу, офіційно затверджених Міністерством освіти і науки України. Внаслідок цього у них стали з’являтися свої власні видозмінені похідні системи норм часу. Таким чином, крім офіційно затверджених норм часу, у вищій освіті виникла ціла сукупність систем норм часу на виконання навчальної роботи, які мають загальне походження, загальну «материнську» систему норм часу. У своєму розвитку вони дедалі більше віддаляються від «материнської» системи й одна від одної, що дає змогу говорити про їх дивергенцію. Метою
цієї статті є дослідження процесів дивергенції норм часу на виконання навчальної роботи та визначення її основних напрямів. Дивергенція норм часу є адаптивним процесом, який полягає у пристосуванні систем норм часу ЗВО до нових умов функціонування. Як необхідні передумови для дивергенція норм часу у вищій освіті України виступають законодавчі зміни, які дозволяють ЗВО в межах університетської автономії самим встановлювати норми часу на виконання навчальної роботи науково-педагогічними працівниками; різні умови функціонування ЗВО; їх відносна відособленість.
Основними чинниками дивергенції виступають хронічне недофінансування вищої освіти, необхідність суттєвого підвищення якості підготовки фахівців, суттєве скорочення випускників середніх шкіл внаслідок демографічної кризи в Україні. У процесі дослідження виявлено п’ять основних напрямів дивергенції, які об’єднують відповідні первинні зміни систем норм часу. Трансформація норм часу дає змогу ЗВО адаптуватися до змін зовнішнього середовища та особливостей елементів внутрішнього середовища (організація навчального та наукового процесів, персонал, організація управління, маркетинг тощо). Подальші дослідження дивергенції норм часу на виконання навчальної роботи мають полягати у визначенні ступеня змін норм протягом певного часу в окремих ЗВО або їх групах, а також у встановленні рівнів дивергенції в різних системах норм часу.
