  • Unethical Purchase of Academic Papers in Public Universities of Armenia
    Journal of Teaching and Education, CD-ROM. ISSN: 2165-6266 :: 05(02):371–400 (2016) UNETHICAL PURCHASE OF ACADEMIC PAPERS IN PUBLIC UNIVERSITIES OF ARMENIA Irshat Madyarov, Mariam Khachatryan, Sona Budaghyan, Kristine Goroyan, Narine Gevorgyan, Lilit Manvelyan, Sirush Vardazaryan and Hasmik Bisharyan American University of Armenia, Armenia Academic dishonesty is known to be a widespread phenomenon in higher education institutions. A type of academic dishonesty, unethical purchase of academic papers among students of public universities of Armenia, is a topic of discussion in the country. However, no empirical study has been conducted on the type of academic dishonesty. This study is aimed at contributing to filling this gap and exploring current trends in unethical purchase of academic papers among students and the kind of measures taken to regulate academic integrity in public universities of Armenia. Faculty members and experts from governmental and non-governmental organizations, as well as employees of specialized centers that sell academic papers were interviewed to get insight into current academic integrity policies and reasons that drive students to unethically purchase papers. Based on the interview results, a survey was administered to 623 students from different fields of study in 12 public universities of Armenia to confirm findings of the interview and reveal current trends in the purchase of papers by students. As findings suggest, there is no government regulation concerning academic integrity and such problems mainly receive university-level solutions. Most universities do not have written policies on academic integrity despite the fact that it is required by newly operating accreditation standards. Nevertheless, interviewed faculty members and administrative staff of the universities have negative attitude towards the phenomenon.

As this objective goes against many of the structural and economic interests in the city, the 'illogical' aspects of plans and regulations would be expected to be immediately transgressed. Surprisingly, however, municipal regulation of investments for significant new uses of property is strong, as is the provision of services to neighborhoods with little to no expected returns.

My research sought to better understand these issues and the lived experience and human condition of the Syrian Diaspora. In my research, I thought through this main question: How do Syrian newcomers come to make sense of what it means to have lost a home and a homeland as it relates to the Syrian Diasporic experience? I broached the Syrian diasporic subject by thinking through an anti-Orientalist, anti- colonial framework, and I engaged autoethnography as a research methodology and as a method as I reflexively thought through and wrote from my own personal experience as a Syrian immigrant so that I could better understand the Syrian refugee’s human experience.

  • Implementation of Salzburg Principles in Republic of Armenia
    Implementation of Salzburg Principles in Republic of Armenia TRAINING & PROJECT MEETING 05.-07.05.2014 Graz, Austria organised by About the Training In 2005, the Salzburg Principles were established in the Bologna Process as the basis of the reforms for doctoral education. In the half decade that has passed since then, Europe’s universities have carried out wide-ranging reforms in this area, most notably by establishing doctoral schools. The achievements and experiences of Europe’s universities affirm and enrich the original principles1. The Salzburg Principles were established to serve as a guiding instrument to the universities across Europe. Their chief objective is to make a connection between the European Research Area and the European Higher Education Area by building a common framework and using the PhD concept in pursuance of reconnecting the university with the society, economy and industry. The numerous problems and difficulties of designing, managing and delivering quality doctoral education has been recognized throughout Europe, and not only the Republic of Armenia. With an aim to familiarize and inspire the Armenian academic community with diverse “PhD models” from around the world, the foreseen training will gather a group of renowned expert-lecturers who will elaborate the models applied at their home universities and countries. During the training, “case study examples” from Austria, Germany, United Kingdom and Sweden will be presented to the audience, which will be comprised of representatives from the management, teaching staff, and students from all Armenian public universities. This training provides an opportunity for Armenian higher education institutions to share their knowledge and experiences, with an aim to establish common Standards in PhD education in Armenia.
