THE QUALITY OF UNIVERSITY STUDENTS' SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH ACTIVITY
Journal Title: Quality Issues and Insightsin the 21st Century - Year 2016, Vol 5, Issue 1
Abstract
It is undoubted, that study quality is one of the essential university activity priorities. After 2000, higher education sector in Lithuania has significantly expanded, the number of students has been increasing, over eight hundred study programmes have been accredited. Quantitative higher education system development actualises a high study quality demand. However, demand clarity and perception is only one side. Study quality assurance becomes a highly important question. It is also obvious that one of the complex study quality parts is student scientific research activity (SRA) quality. It is understandable, that SRA should be universally stimulated and developed. Scientific research activity is not an entertainment, but responsible, thorough work requiring a lot of self-reliance. During such an activity students’ analytical thinking gets stronger, the abilities of searching for information and using it are formed; they learn how to analyse the gathered material, to prepare reports, to make research presentations and so on (Lamanauskas, Augienė, 2015). Scientific research activity process forms conditions for students to master researcher’s role at a certain level, to develop certain competencies.
