The universities are facing many challenges nowadays. On one hand stays the question, how to attract the most talented students, on the other how to recruit and keep academic staff. One of the ways to deal with these arising challenges is through branding the corporate image of the universities as Yordanova, 2022 discusses. The corporate identity of the university becomes crucial as a way to differentiate between each other especially in the dynamically changing business environment. The unexpected pandemic situation not only surprised all educational institutions, but has become an outstanding factor for their survival and competitiveness. The present chapter draws attention on digitalization as a way to respond and to adapt to the pandemic situation. What is more, it presents author's view on factors, affecting on the level of digitalization of universities. Best practices of universities implementing digitalizations are also discussed.

Distance learning as an unavoidable component of higher education during the pandemicDuring the short period of time, the situation has changed dramatically and demanded significant correlations of our requirements and priorities in many areas, including the system of traditional higher academic education, which in turn revealed new opportunities, prospects, challenges, and even threats. The usual system of organizing the educational process (tests/exams) which is typical for full-time education is changing now. The initial euphoria from the widespread introduction of distance learning methods is replaced by anxiety and apprehension, taking into account the duration of the changing process of digital learning, as the only alternative platform that allows continuing the implementation of higher education as it is. However, studying the consequences of online learning, most researchers consider the problem: what impact digitalization of education has on a new contingent of students who are more adapted to global digitalization and do not feel stressed implementing new...

DIGITAL COMPETENCES AND SKILLS AS THE KEY TO SUCCESSFUL FUTURE EDUCATION -DISTANCE LEARNING AT THE DOCTORAL LEVEL IN A SITUATION CAUSED BY COVID-19 PANDEMICThe COVID-19 pandemic challenges all segments of society and calls for rapid and effective interventions in health-care system, business, the economy and the education system. In the context of higher education, the doctoral level is specific due primarily to its organizational and program characteristics. The goal of this paper is to assess the success of the implementation of consultation segment and teaching process at University North Postgraduate Doctoral Study in Media and Communication, which continued with the Program despite the situation in which the entire education system in Croatia migrated to distance learning practically in a day. The goal is also to show that digital competencies and skills of professors and students are key to the successful implementation of distance learning. Investing in mastering these skills and raising them to a higher level is the key to a successful education of the future. Such conclusion is confirmed by two key documents crucial for our research-UNESCO ICT Competency Framework for Teachers (2018) and especially Bologna Digital 2020 White Paper on Digitalisation in the European Higher Education Area (2019). The later emphasizes that Europe needs new directions and visions for a contemporary higher education in digital age. Digitalisation is therefore not just an extra challenge, but also an efficient tool capable of detecting the key challenges of 21 st century higher education. The research utilizes an interview technique conducted by way of synchronous communication, via videoconference and telephone. Through videoconferencing, a semi-structured group interview method was implemented on a sample of 43 doctoral students divided into two groups. In the first group, which represents the first year of study, 23 doctoral students have participated in the interview. In the second group, which represents the second year of study, 20 doctoral students have participated. The semi-structured individual interview method was conducted by telephone on a sample of five professors teaching at doctoral Program. Research results show that the situation caused by COVID-19 pandemic sped up certain processes in the areas of higher education that anyway desperately call for a change and are especially highlighted in the above mentioned documents. Research also points to the need for reorganization of doctoral study programmes, particularly in the context of methods and approaches to the research segment. Additional interventions are needed in transfer skills workshops planning, all aiming at the increase of scientific and technical information literacy of doctoral candidates. Furthermore, results show that certain ECTS generating obligations included in doctoral study programme (such as working visit to some foreign University) are made much easier precisely by to modern ICT technologies. Although the doctoral level of studying substantially differs from other two education cycles, it cannot be the justification for the fact that doctoral-level specific research of necessary digital adaptations is scarce. This work aims at filling the research void and offers guidelines for adjusting the doctoral level of studying to challenges and demands of digital age. We will also show that digital transformation changes not only the educational system, but also economic, cultural and social surrounding, which makes new/digital skills 'conditio sine qua non' for an active and fulfilling participation in this new reality.

THE IMPACTS OF THE DIGITAL TECHNOLOGIES ON THE ONLINE DISTANCE TEACHING AND LEARNING OF THE UNIVERSITY STUDENTS DURING THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC2021 •
During the COVID-19 Pandemic, most universities have changed their teaching and learning methodologies by using different digital technologies from Google Classroom, Blackboard, Canvas, and Zoom to Google Drive, YouTube, WhatsApp, and Notability. Even though the intensive use of the different digital technologies for teaching and learning has been widely advocated for minimum two decades, the COVID-19 pandemic has exponentially increased the needs in the world in which all the stakeholders from schools, students, and families to public and political institutions, particularly the universities have become deeply interested in using properly. To analyse and understand critically how the impacts of the digital technologies on the teaching and learning of the university students during the COVID-19 pandemic, the qualitative research had been strategically designed and developed. The main target of this qualitative research is to understand deeply how the effects of the most used digital technologies on the teaching and learning of the university students during the COVID-19 pandemic period when the university students have taken their courses mainly online or blended, face to face and online. As a field study, three different university students have been taken into account. The participants (25) who had actively participated in the semistructured focus groups through Zoom meetings had answered 21 questions. The collected data were analysed by using NVivo. The data have showed the most used digital technologies-from Google Classroom, Blackboard, Canvas, and Zoom to Google Drive, YouTube WhatsApp, and Notability-affect positively minimum 88% of the university students on the teaching and learning even in the most difficult subjects including those of the applied ones. Since they are the most well known facilitators for learning activities involving high technologies for both face to face and distance learning ecosystems in the higher education institutions, it creates also a long term model by developing and systematizing a roadmap for future teaching, learning, collaborating, networking, assessing, and researching at the university level. As the 94% of the participants has clarified that the students' learning outcomes are much better by using these different digital technologies. Under these new circumstances, most of the participants (98%) point out how they have faced with the difficulties, reliabilities, and stresses while they are taking exams; hence, universities need new successful methodologies to conduct reliable and valid assessments, which affect their success in their Grade Point Average (GPA). Additionally, as the participants (96%) mention that the university professors, lecturers, and teaching assistants need to implement digital teaching methodologies and digital pedagogy by having better digital, technological, infrastructural, institutional, and organizational learning ecosystems that promote and boost teaching, learning, collaborating, networking, and researching. In conclusion, the analyses show a well-rounded model to redevelop methodologies, to offer a roadmap, and to lead successful outcomes for the future of the teaching and learning by using effectively and efficiently the digital technologies in the higher education institutions, which will create the future technologies and innovation.

The ‘New’ New Normal—Digitalization and Hybridization of Work and Education Before, during and after the Covid-19 PandemicBefore the COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic, work and education on the university campus were considered superior to equivalent activities conducted digitally or remotely. Despite being significantly digitally mature, many organizations did not consider or even permit digital or hybrid participation in meetings and education. In March 2020, the lockdown following the pandemic caused the transition of many organizations and most universities to online-only operation in record time. Often, this occurred while maintaining quality and production, even if some aspects relating to the user experience were lost. The purpose of this paper is to describe and analyze how digitalization following the pandemic influenced and transformed the digital work environment in higher education. KTH Royal Institute of Technology, Stockholm, Sweden, provided the experiences and data for this article. In conclusion we distinguished different phases of digital work and education before, during and after the pa...
