“…Students feel more appreciated and supported by the university, with simpler administrative processes and responsiveness to their needs. This not only improves their experience at the university but also strengthens the reputation of the University of Tadulako as an institution that cares for and responds to its academic community (Aldi & Ade Rahma, 2019;Rossini et al, 2022;Sulaeman et al, 2021) On the operational efficiency front, the changes have resulted in improved staff productivity and more optimal resource use. With more efficient processes, administrative staff can allocate their time and effort to more valuable activities, improving the overall quality of service.…”

The study aims to explore strategies to enhance public administration capacity at Tadulako University, using a qualitative approach through case studies. This research mainly focuses on understanding how the applied strategies can improve administrative processes and provide better services to students and staff. Researchers collect data by conducting in-depth interviews, live observations, and document analysis with administrative staff, students, and faculty. Researchers conduct thematic analysis to identify key themes and comprehend the effectiveness and impact of implemented strategies. Research results show that integrating information technology, staff training, and revising bureaucratic processes are critical factors in improving the efficiency and quality of administrative services. Data triangulation reinforces these findings, ensuring the validity and reliability of the results. The research provides insights into best organizational practices and offers valuable recommendations for other higher education institutions facing similar challenges. These implications extend beyond operational improvements to enhancing student education experiences, illustrating the connection between effective administration and academic success in higher education institutions.

“…These traditionally take the form of a survey or questionnaire. However, these data collection methods are limited by poor response rates and evaluation fatigue [10] with available instruments assessing academic satisfaction lacking validity [11] . There are alternatives to these traditional, word-based data collection methods, and a recognition that a partnership approach may gain an enhanced quality evaluation [12] .…”

Objective: Healthcare student expectation and experience of professional training is likely to impact retention on their chosen programme. Understanding the experience of healthcare students is essential to support programme completion and ensure a future workforce with sufficient staff. The objectives of this study were to: (1) investigate the similarities and differences between undergraduate nursing and radiotherapy students' expectations and experiences of the first year of their programme through pictorial data, and (2) develop a process of interpreting pictorial data for student evaluation.Methods: With written consent, students participating in nursing (n=31) and radiotherapy (n=22) completed a pictorial data collection tool on commencement and completion of year one. Data were analyzed using an adapted thematic content analysis. Independent data analysis, use of an audit trail and a reflective approach ensured a rigorous process.Results: Three themes were identified: professional identity, expectation of workload, and confidence. The students in both cohorts indicated an expectation that they would complete their studies, demonstrating a growing understanding of their profession over the first year of their studies, alongside a high workload. Nursing students indicated pride associated with being a nurse that was evident at the start and end of their first year of training. They experienced fatigue and lacked time to spend in activities other than studying and sleeping. Radiotherapy students indicated a better work-life balance. Conclusion:Informed by the findings, recommendations for healthcare programmes are made. Pictorial data were found to be quick, accessible, and inexpensive to collect and analyse. Impact of the visual data was powerful, giving novel insights into student expectation and experience. Pictorial data may provide a valuable complement to traditional methods of evaluation in healthcare education.

Simulation-based training (SBT) is increasingly recognized in medical education for enhancing clinical skills and confidence. This study evaluated the impact of SBT on satisfaction and self-confidence among final-year medical students at Jazan University, Saudi Arabia. A total of 117 students participated in a cross-sectional study after attending SBT sessions focused on anesthesiology. Data were collected via a questionnaire assessing satisfaction and self-confidence. Statistical analyses included descriptive and inferential statistics. Results showed mean satisfaction and self-confidence scores of 3.64 ± 0.79 and 3.70 ± 0.90, respectively, with no significant differences by gender or age. A strong association was noted between the learning experience ratings and both satisfaction and self-confidence (p < 0.001). The highest satisfaction was with the instructor’s teaching style, whereas the lowest was with the motivation provided by teaching materials. For self-confidence, the highest scores related to the instructor’s guidance, while the lowest concerned the application of SBT to critical skills learning. A strong positive correlation was found between satisfaction and self-confidence (R = 0.847, p < 0.001). The study concludes that SBT significantly enhances student satisfaction and self-confidence, emphasizing the importance of learner-centered methods and interactive learning in medical education.
