While this statement does not refer specifically to Engagement, the idea of interconnectedness and knowledge sharing is both the essence and the value of Engagement. Engagement can be formal or informal. It features inter-active, reciprocal relationships that are built on trust, connectivity and shared understanding. Engagement can occur on an individual to individual, individual to community, or a community to community basis. A community is not a singular entity, but a social phenomena that connects people to one or more communities by such things as location, interest or identity. While the University-Community Engagement context is featured in this book, the concepts could easily apply to other contexts such as Government-Community Engagement, or Business-Community Engagement. `This work draws together a lifetime of learning and experience, that`s why the Denzin and Lincoln (2003) notion of a `bricoleur` - being one who works between and within competing and overlapping perspectives and paradigms, resonates strongly with me`. ····· 1036198860

Having accessibility to resource persons or specialists in special needs education provides assurance for general teachers in meeting the learning needs of all students, particularly students with disabilities. One way of addressing students and teachers needs for support is through itinerant specialist support. This qualitative study investigates four main aspects of itinerant specialist support in Czech preschools: the system of itinerant specialist support, its practicality and adequacy in promoting inclusion, the collaborative relationship between itinerant specialists and preschool teachers, and preschool changes as a result of itinerant specialist support and inclusion. The research findings showed that itinerant specialist support using a consultative model is effective in cultivating positive teacher attitudes and transferring knowledge and skills from itinerant specialists to preschool teachers.

The author points out that in Kenya, teachers are not trained as professional counsellors yet every school has a Guidance and Counselling Department. Jepkemboi establishes that Guidance and Counselling in secondary schools is not the responsibility of teacher counsellors per se rather, other stake holders such as school chaplains, parents, head teachers and peer counsellors play a role in Guidance and Counselling services. She observes that Guidance and Counselling facilities, in secondary schools, are not adequate and effective. Therefore, the author recommends that the government trains and deploys teacher counsellors to schools for effective co-ordination of Guidance and Counselling programs. She posits that there should also be a continuous professional development for the present teacher counsellors to equip them with knowledge and skills on effective Guidance and Counselling. This book is a must-read for teacher educators, professional school counsellors, school teachers and school principals in Kenya and beyond. ····· 1036198821

Juxtaposing these successes with persistent student`s poor academic achievement and negative attitudes towards Mathematics at all educational levels and in practice beats the logic of `computer revolution` in education. Consequently, the integration of computer into Mathematics instruction is a concern to educators and researchers in Mathematics education and educational technology. Computer-Assisted instruction (CAI) has the capacity to catalyze a paradigm shift from the traditional teacher-centered to a constructivist approach. To promote the change, there is need to investigate the effectiveness of CAI in Mathematics education.This book reports findings of a study conducted towards this end.

According to the United States Department of Labour Secretary s Commission on Achieving Necessary Skills (SCANS), IL is one of the essential competencies for solid job performance (Cheuk, 2002:1 Amalahu, 2009:3). Similar realizations are evident in Europe, Australia, Singapore and South Africa, where IL is considered economically necessary (Cheuk, 2002:1). Developing countries suffer from general low utilization of the most important resources of the present time- information and knowledge- due to lack of IL skills (Pejova, 2002 1). Lack of these skills and efficient use of information and knowledge causes a waste of other resources and affects productivity in all spheres of life, which results into poor societies. Uganda s IL among university graduates needs enhancement because it has been rated among the 25 poorest countries in the world (World Bank, 2007:1).

Difference in performance was noticed among the teachers who received training from the NGO and other providers and who received no training. The performance of trained teachers was higher than others. The performance of the teachers currently receiving training is higher than the teacher trained earlier. The teachers receiving training currently remembered the knowledge gained from the training. Whereas the teachers who received training earlier forgot many aspects of training because, according to them, they could not use their new knowledge in their exiting school setting.

Free joint mobility and appropriate muscle force increases walking efficiency. This process of walking is known as gait. Every human being has a unique gait pattern. Hence by analyzing the gait behavior abnormalities associated with the gait can be identified. Also, by analyzing the temperature, blood pressure and pulse rate most of the diseases can be identified.So a health monitoring procedure is described that depict the complete health status of a person by analyzing both the physical body parameters i.e. temperature, blood pressure and pulse rate and some of the gait parameters viz. cadence, stride length and cycle time(gait cycle time) with the help of fuzzy logic. The proposed procedure with the help of FIS (fuzzy inference system) evaluates the input parameters and maps them into a output parameter that tells the normality and abnormality of the given parameter. And then the gait abnormalities are further determined by analyzing the energy expenditure of the person (patient). ····· 1036198372· 1 · ::::: · 29 ·· 30 ·· 31 ·· 32 ·· 33 ·· 34 ·· 35 · ::::: · 74 ·
