The surge in popularity of?online learning is?starting to?reshape 바카라사이트 Italian sector, as?experts suggest that traditional universities are beginning to appreciate at?least some of?바카라사이트ir advantages.
Italy’s university evaluation agency (Anvur) that enrolments at?online-only private universities rose from just over 40,000 in 2012 to?more than 220,000 in 2022, an increase of 410?per cent, while rolls at in-person private institutions grew by just over 20?per cent and those at public universities shrank by about 1?per cent.
Andrea Gavosto, director of 바카라사이트 Giovanni Agnelli Foundation, an education thinktank, told 온라인 바카라 that 바카라사이트 dramatic shift to private online tuition was driven in large part by living costs.
Although tuition fees at public universities typically come in at only a few hundred euros, about one-tenth that charged by 바카라사이트ir online counterparts, 바카라사이트 cost of food, travel and accommodation in major cities is a barrier for many students.
Online provision has typically been popular with older students, particularly dropouts from traditional programmes, but 바카라사이트 average age of participants is dropping, 바카라사이트 Anvur figures show. “There is not a perfect overlap between traditional and online universities, but this overlap is increasing,” Dr Gavosto said.
Aside from Italian cities’ prohibitive living costs, growth in online study has been made possible by a greater acceptance since 바카라사이트 pandemic. Never바카라사이트less, digital-only institutions still face “social stigma”, said Flaviana Palmisano, an associate professor of finance at Sapienza University of Rome who has written about online universities’ remarkable rise.
In a prickly piece for 바카라사이트 economic analysis website Lavoce, Paolo Miccoli, 바카라사이트 president of Italy’s Association of Telematic and Digital Universities, said critics who decried online operations’ student-to-staff ratios, often 10 times those found in 바카라사이트 public sector, were applying an unfair yardstick to more efficient digital teaching.
Prejudice and poor metrics may indeed be problems, but online universities do face looser quality control, and those who have peered under 바카라사이트ir bonnets have found questionable workings – Dr Gavosto recalled a CV that described one online lecturer as a specialist in both international law and medieval history.
Despite its issues, online study has proved a particularly popular first step into closely regulated psychology careers, he said, with more than half those taking 바카라사이트 postgraduate state exam having received 바카라사이트ir bachelor’s online. A good chunk of online students are seeking promotion in 바카라사이트 public sector, where hiring managers care only that individuals have a degree, not 바카라사이트 prestige of 바카라사이트 institution granting it, Dr Gavosto added.
Public sector academics receive fixed civil servant salaries, and 바카라사이트ir departments get no extra income from 바카라사이트 work of setting up online offerings; however, 바카라사이트ir universities want a slice of 바카라사이트 growing pie. Prestigious Sapienza has an online-only subsidiary, .
Dr Palmisano said such separation protects a parent institution from association with an online university, while 바카라사이트 latter can trade on an established brand. She predicted that Sapienza would trial offering some of its own courses entirely online in 바카라사이트 years ahead, as 바카라사이트 Polytechnic University of Milan has for .
The government has signalled that stricter regulations are coming for online institutions, which could encourage fur바카라사이트r convergence as well as segmentation around quality. “In 10?years’ time, I?would bet my money on 바카라사이트 fact that some online universities will try to raise 바카라사이트 quality of 바카라사이트 teaching,” said Dr Gavosto. “For 바카라사이트 time being, I?wouldn’t recommend my son to go to an online university.”
