In 2010 the Faculty of Economics and Management of the UL started a cooperation with the University of Applied Sciences in Kufstein (Austria) in doctoral studies. A separate module named Global Management and Leadership was created for the training of foreign students in the frame of doctoral studies program in Management. First students, mainly from Austria and Germany, began their studies in spring 2011. On June 28th, after intensive studies in an intellectually and emotionally dense atmosphere, the first doctoral student has received the doctor`s degree in Management Science, subfield Business Management. Andreas Michael Giesa defended the thesis „Determinants of Team Performance in Business Organizations”. The satisfaction of a job well done is not only expressed by the grade`s achiever but also by all of the people involved in this process: scientific supervisor prof.I.Vorončuka, the Department of International Economics and Business, reviewers and partners of cooperation

field of study. Theoretical examinations are held in a written or oral form. In some fields e.g. in medicine, practical examinations are important. Students are examined by a single examiner or by an examination board. If the student is successful in all the examinations of the session, he/she is allowed to continue the following semester. An examination board chaired by an outstanding academic or a professional person from outside the institution conducts the final examinations. In some cases, especially if the programme prepares an individual for work in a regulated profession, the final examinations may be arranged as State examinations. Marking System In Latvia's higher education a ten-point grading system prevails, where 10 is the maximum and 4 is the pass mark (In some cases where studies lead to a qualification in a regulated profession, e.g. in medical specialties, the universities may consider mark 4 as a failure). Explanation of the grading system and approximate comparison

Remote Learning During the COVID-19 Pandemic for Students with Learning Disabilities: Challenges and Opportunities [PDF] Egija Laganovska University of Latvia, Latvia Abstract: The situation in general education in Latvia has changed since the spring semester of 2020. On the 13 th of March 2020 Latvia temporarily introduced remote training at all stages of education. The government regularly monitored the spread of the COVID-19 virus and the number of infections, so restrictions in different areas have changed frequently. Educational institutions for students of 1 st –12 th grade (ages 6–17) in the 2020/2021 school year worked under fluctuating circumstances, and most of the learning process took place remotely. For most of the 2020/2021 school year, teaching and learning were thus largely based on technology and online teaching. The COVID-19 pandemic has had an impact on various aspects of life, such as the economy, education, and social life. This time has led to challenges

Rajapakse International Bilingual School at Tainan Science Park, Taiwan Abstract. In the rapidly industrializing world of the 21st century, the many negative environmental impacts of modern-day human practices are becoming substantially more evident. One such problem not brought into considerable focus is chemical pollution in the oceans. As Taiwan is an island that relies heavily on the surrounding ocean for many economic practices, the harms and preventive measures of ocean chemical pollution must be discussed forthwith. This paper aims to conduct an analysis on the current scientific literature published on the topic of ocean chemical pollution and its various impacts specifically on Taiwan’s oceans but also aims to conduct a study on Taiwanese university students to investigate the role

The main building of the UL has a historical designated lock-up or detention room to incarcerate students as a punishment. It is the oldest and the most authentic punishment cell in Baltic States which was actively used from 1869 to 1903.
