    Send Orders for Reprints to [email protected] The Open Management Journal, 2013, 5, 1-8 1 Open Access The Role of University Managers for a Successful University Development Marcel de Schrevel1,* and Tobias Jost2,3 1Organization and Planning at the University of Hagen, 58084 Hagen, Germany; 2Organization and Planning at the University of Hagen, Germany, 58084 Hagen, Germany; 3Airbus CIMPA GmbH, 22607 Hamburg, Germany Abstract: The objective of the University Freedom Act (Hochschulfreiheitsgesetz) in North Rhine-Westphalia is to achieve entrepreneurial universities that are to be steered by their presidents and vice-presidents – in other word, their managers. For this purpose, along with management, leadership is also important. This paper attempts to determine how university managers deal with those tasks. Interviews show that the universities have different rates of progression, but without exception are still far from the goal. The type of manager in university managements is of central importance on the road to the goal. The interviews illustrate the manager type that is required to develop a university into an entrepreneurial university. Keywords: Germany, governance, higher education, leadership, management, organizational development, strategic manage- ment, university management. 1. INTRODUCTION German phenomenon, university leaders from other countries that see themselves in the same movement, so It was long ago in 1983, Clark showed with his triangle becoming an entrepreneurial university, can benefit from of coordination that impulses for steering the university insights being presented. could come from three different sides, namely, the market, the state, and academic oligarchies. The different national university systems can be located within the triangle. Clark 2.

  • Expanding the Media Mix in Distance Education and Lifelong Learning
    Submitted for publication in: Journal of the Lifelong Learning Society, Korea National Open University Expanding the media mix in distance education and lifelong learning Hans-Joachim Mittag University of Hagen, Germany [email protected] Abstract The digitalization of education is a challenge for institutions involved in teaching and professional training. In its introductory parts, this paper pays attention to two developments with great impact on the practice of education and further education. One of these developments is the appearance and ongoing evolvement of massive open online courses (MOOCs). The publication starts by describing the main types of MOOCs, their key features and limitations, and trends in designing MOOCs. The ensuing part is dedicated to the employment of mobile devices for learning and teaching purposes (m-learning). It outlines the state of m- learning and potentials for improvement. The third part of this publication provides an overview of the main components of the media mix currently applied in education and further education. At the end of this part, blended learning models applied at two German universities specialized in distance teaching are presented in brief. The closing part refers to components of blended learning models that are either missing or not fully exploited. The case of statistics education is chosen for illustrating that platform-independent and granular learning objects stressing interactive visualization have the potential of complementing existing learning and teaching scenarios. Key words MOOCs, mobile learning, m-learning, blended learning, platform-independence, interactive learning objects, user-controlled visualization, open educational resources, statistics education MOOCs – a new pillar enriching the educational landscape During the past half-decade, the arrangements for distance teaching and lifelong learning changed considerably and still evolve.
