INTER‐UNIVERSITY UNKAGES VIA COMMUNICATION INFRASTRUCTURES

The need for closer co‐operation among academic environments in Yugoslavia can be satisfied by making use of the services of the Yugoslav System for Scientific and Technological Information (SNTIJ). The establishment of the YUNET network and of the non‐profit organization, YUNAC, will permit the linking of Yugoslav networks, with international ones. Thus, the gap between the developed world and Yugoslavia will be bridged, and users will be able to gain access to databases in Yugoslavia and abroad, as well as being able to participate in the creation of new knowledge.     

TRAINING FOR INTERPERSONAL COMMUNICATION: A TRANSACTIONAL PERSPECTIVE

Theorists argue that one's personal view of communication affects the actual communicative relationship. This paper explores the positive, growth‐promoting implications for communication between generations when the model that persons bring to the cross‐generational relationship is transactional, and discusses implications of the transactional model for trainers and educators in gerontology.

With the rising number of older persons in American society, the question for persons working on a consistent basis with the elderly (kin, social service provider, etc.) of how to relate most effectively on an interpersonal basis with an older person is an issue of great import. The authors suggest that the transactional perspective to interpersonal communication with older persons is the answer to most effectively dealing with factors affecting communication cross‐generationally and suggest that educators adopt this perspective. Factors that the transactional perspective addresses directly include negative stereotypes and fears of aging, crises encountered as the person ages, shifts during the later life cycle in exposure to interpersonal communication, and ability to negotiate relationships.     

ENVIRONMENTAL EDUCATION AND TRAINING OF ENGINEERS ‐‐UNESCO ACTIVITIES IN THE FIELD OF ENVIRONMENTAL EDUCATION FOR ENGINEERS

The impact of engineers on the environment, particularly in the processes of urbanization, industrial production and in the search for energy resources is generally recognized.

Ecological repercussions of the project or construction where there has been a lack of appreciation of environmental harmony might have negative consequences affecting many people. Recognition of this situation is reflected in the numerous efforts of national and international organizations to reorganize engineering studies and to in‐corporate environmental education in the training of engineers.

The following article was written, for “Higher Education in Europe” and deals with Unesco's activities in the area of development of environmental education of engineers. It was written by Albert Sasson from the Division of Ecological Science of Unesco.     

THE UNIVERSITY OF TOMORROW AND ITS PLANNING

It can be expected that the dynamics of change acting upon education will require substantial modification of the objectives of higher education and its institutions.

Affected will be the teaching function as well as research activities. The main changes will most probably occur in the communities’ rôle in higher education. This also imposes changes in the role of managers and planners of higher education as well as new financial and legal problems which are thus created.

The article presented below discusses the extent to which planning in the universities, especially in relation‐to their facilities, shall be determined by the dynamics of the processes mentioned above. It is an extract from an article entitled “Planning the Facilities for the University of Tomorrow” which was written by Michel Woitrin from the Catholic University of Louvain, Louvain‐la‐Beuve, Belgium.     

高校图书馆参与教学工作初探

高校图书馆的职能不仅仅在于为读提供服务，其教育职能亦应引起重视。高校图书馆履行教育职能在新时期具有一些有利条件，许多高校图书馆在这方面也进行了探索，摸索出了高校图书馆直接参与教学工作的几种形式。高校图书馆履行教育职能，直接参与教学工作有利于提高图书馆在高校的地位，有利于促进图书馆职能的扩展和我国图书馆事业的发展。当然高校图书馆直接参与教学工作应该适度，不能偏离图书馆职能的总体发展方向。     

UNIVERSITY STUDIES AS TRAINING FOR THE INTELLECTUAL PROFESSIONS

The origins of the medieval university appear to be twofold: on the one hand, the training in the liberal arts that took place in various sorts of schools and academies that can be traced back to the classical era in European history as well as to the golden age of Arab‐Islamic civilization, and on the other hand, the need to offer possibilities for practical training for a trade. The first type of training was by its nature reserved to a social elite. The latter, that in the medieval period was associated with trade guilds and apprenticeship systems, was for the working classes. The medieval university arose from the union of these two types of training and education as embodied in an institution that began as guilds of students and teachers and/or as cathedral schools. The result was the university that offered training in certain intellectual professions (theology, medicine, and law) but that required prior mastery of the liberal arts. As the fruit of this intellectual and vocational union, the university continued to absorb and to disseminate the principal intellectual trends of succeeding periods in European history, first Aristotelianism and then later the experimental sciences, finally, in recent years, taking on a major research and development function.
