A part of international congresses programs are professional visits (trips). Foreign publications pay a special attention to professional trips, which considers them as an instrument of cultural diplomacy. In Russia there are a few examples of organizing professional (or study) trips for students. Publications dedicated to this theme are usually of descriptive character. The experience of St. Petersburg State Institute of Culture, as well as other Russian and non-Russian universities, confirms that educational trips should be regarded as a form of independent study activity. This article attempts to determine how the tasks of study trips for students of library departments correlate with competences of the educational standard. The paper considers the experience of organizing independent student work at the Library and Information Sciences Department of St. Petersburg State Institute of Culture within the framework of educational trips to other countries. It highlights the trips objectives in the context of library and information science education as the following: establishing and developing professional and interpersonal contacts between foreign and Russian educational organizations and libraries; involving students in intercultural communication; getting professional knowledge by visits to institutions, informational conversations, excursions to organizations and institutions of professional interest; exchanging professional knowledge in the field of librarianship and the experience in library practice; meetings with foreign students, scholars and specialists; acquainting with the economic, political and cultural life of foreign countries. By providing information about educational trips «The role of the book in Gutenberg’s homeland (Germany)» and «Baltic libraries as centers of science, culture, and education (Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania)», the author demonstrates how these tasks are correlated with the competencies required by the Russian educational standard of higher education «51.03.06. Library and information activities (bachelor's level)»; outlines the stages of study trips followed by a description of the professional tasks and competencies required by the federal state educational standard of higher education mentioned above. Thus, students develop competencies through independent work. The article sums that study trips as a form of independent activity accomplish professional tasks required by the Russian educational standard of higher education, such as research and methodological work, information and analytical work, management.

The professoriate is a foundational component of higher education and impacts program success.  This study describes computer and information sciences (CIS) faculty workloads empirically.  The role of faculty in higher education is characterized in terms of research, teaching, service, and administration.  Specifically, this study examines the relationships of faculty individual characteristics, occupational characteristics, and organizational context across the percent of effort allocations in regards to workload.  The data used for this study was the National Center for Education Statistics most recent examination of the faculty, the 1999 National Survey of Postsecondary Faculty (NSOFP-99) data.  Specifically, this study describes CIS faculty on selected individual characteristics, occupational characteristics, and institutional context; describe the actually and preferred effort allocations of CIS faculty; determines if significant differences exists between the actually and preferred effort allocations in workload of CIS faculty; determines if a relationship exists between the actual allocation of workload of CIS faculty and individual characteristics, occupational characteristics, and instructional context.  Data analysis was conducted using SPSS. To answer the research questions means, standard deviations, frequencies, percents, correlations, and t-tests were implemented.  This study found the majority of faculty workload is spent on teaching and the majority of program and faculty evaluation is based on research.  The study suggests that more research is needed to develop a better picture of CIS faculty in terms of workloads.

Purpose The purpose of this article was to extend the concepts of systems of oppression in higher education to the clinical setting where communication and swallowing services are delivered to geriatric persons, and to begin a conversation as to how clinicians can disrupt oppression in their workplace. Conclusions As clinical service providers to geriatric persons, it is imperative to understand systems of oppression to affect meaningful change. As trained speech-language pathologists and audiologists, we hold power and privilege in the medical institutions in which we work and are therefore obligated to do the hard work. Suggestions offered in this article are only the start of this important work.
