Kakovost v izobraževalni dejavnosti

In the article Kovač claims that quality in education can be measured on the basis of comparison between profit and no­profit sectors - activities. He defines quality on five levels, namely quality as a system, quality as a process, quality as control, quality as competition, and quality as business philosophy. Kovač concludes that quality of education process primarily means encouragement of personal creativity and establishment of values for joint cooperation. Quality needs to be introduced into educational institutions in order to ensure a higher level of responsiveness to new education needs, not to mention the fact that quality has become one of the most important development philosophies on the verge of the 21st century.Avtor v svojem prispevku zastopa stališče, da se da kakovost v izobraževalni dejavnosti ovrednotiti na temelju primerljivosti med pridobitnimi in nepridobitni­ mi sektorji - dejavnostmi. Govori o kakovosti na petih ravneh, in sicer razlikuje kakovost kot sistem, kakovost kot proces, kakovost kot nadzor, kakovost kot tekmovanje in kakovost kot poslovna miselnost. V prispevku ugotavlja, da kakovost izobraževalnega procesa pomeni predvsem spodbujanje osebne ustvarjalnosti in uveljavljanje vrednot za skupno sodelovanje. Kakovost je treba uvajati v izobraževalne institucije že zaradi večje odzivnosti na nove izobraževalne potrebe, pa tudi zato, ker je postala kakovost ena najpomembnejših razvojnih filozofij na pragu 21. stoletja
