Thereafter many developments and researches have been carried out over these materials and now these become technologically important and useful in research, engineering and commercial fields. Various properties of glass ceramics depend over microstructure, phase assemblage and bulk chemical composition. Glass formation, workability, tendency towards nucleation as well as crystallization is controlled by the bulk chemical composition. Properties like density, coefficient of thermal expansion and chemical durability are controlled by phase assemblage i.e. proportion, type of crystallization and amorphous phases. Glass Ceramics have a wide range of microstructures, properties and applications. These are generally used in microwave radomes, microelectronic substrates, domestic cooker tops, astronotical telescopes, high integrity vacuum envelopes and biomedical applications.

Also, there may be expectations that these interactions will produce greater educational gains and sensitivity to racial issues. A quantitative research methodology was employed to measure the nature of the student-faculty interactions across race and to explore factors that influence undergraduate students GPA and multicultural perceptions in order to identify ways in which student-faculty interactions might better serve the students.Data collection consisted of surveying students and faculty members via email. The researcher found that only the quality of student-faculty interactions, which belongs to the quality of interactions, had a positive impact on students GPA (.06) and their multicultural perceptions (.18). A better understanding of factors influencing students GPA and multicultural perceptions would be beneficial for both teachers and undergraduate students at VCU. ····· 1036118737

Semi-structured interviews provide personal narratives of beliefs about learning, inclusion and disability. Classroom observations provide an opportunity to examine the influence on practice. Additionally, the study determines if self-described beliefs match observed classroom actions. Findings suggest that there are varying degrees of commitment to inclusive practice which are determined by individual frustrations, teacher confidence, teacher skill levels and understandings of role and responsibility. The conclusion proposes that we continue to have a gap between teacher knowledge and professional actions. It further suggests that inclusion s implementation will be reliant on individual teacher commitment to fostering inclusive practice in addition to systemic structural reform which supports the ideals of inclusion in relevant and pragmatic ways. ····· 1036118657

If students are needed to perform well in reading, factors from both origins should be dealt with properly. The study used the RSPS (Reader self perception scale) to measure students` self perception as readers. Inter variable correlations have been observed significantly in the subscales, implying that they may impact students` reading performance. However, except the progress sub scale, the rest did not correlate with students` reading performance, referring that students may not have real perception of their reading achievement levels. Thus it could be concluded that students should be made engage in a variety of reading activities to enable them determine their reading performance level, which helps us make appropriate interventions. Since all the subscales on the RSPS correlate with one another, and Progress scale correlates with students` performance, all concerned bodies should work to raise them among students, so that reading performance is enhanced.

If this feed loss could be effectively utilised by improving housing conditions, the productivity of pigs could be greatly improved. Improvement in housing conditions seems to be the cheapest alternative for improving efficiency of pig production in Nepalese situations. Improvements in nutrition of rearing gilts and lactating sows resulted in improvements of reproductive outputs in both station and village experiments. Farmers in the hills of Nepal do not rear boar and sows together due to lack of feed availability. Modified suckling management in the late lactation followed by use of boar urine as an alternative to boar mate resulted shorter weaning to remating interval. ····· 1036118615

The cliché of rapid and continuous employee development makes it inevitable for organisations to seek how to continuously enhance the learning of employees, knowing well that there is always more to learn. The Learning based approach to employee development fosters continuous organisation performance. Organisations need to understand how to set up conditions in which learning and the `learning to learn` concept can flourish within the corporate culture. In this global economic down turn, there is the temptation for organisations in a bid to save costs to abandon all forms of Learning and Development. However, the continuous need for organisations to enable Learning and Development of employees cannot be over emphasized if an organisation wishes to maximize its Human Capital asset and achieve corporate objectives. This empirical research study was conducted to find out and also to give an understanding on how organisations position learning and development of its employees.

Could not many respected teachers speak those few words that might change the course of life, or give it new purpose Unfortunately the body of research examining servant leadership in educational organisations is scarce (Crippen, 2005) and it appears a near vacuum exists for information concerning student serving leadership in Australian schools.

The objective is to investigate whether there are more immigrants, first- and/or second generation, studying at Malmö University compared to Lund University. The results show that there are differences between the two groups that can not be explained by minimum grades of admission or pre-market factors. The findings of the study raise more questions than they answer. Hopefully, it can inspire researchers or students to conduct more research on what causes the differences between the two groups and if similar results could be found using other univerisities.

The schools were contacted to determine if they had a school uniform policy and how many seniors they had for specific years. If the school that requires school uniforms had higher graduation and attendance rates and a lower suspension rate than those that did not require uniforms, then it is likely that other schools will be able to implement a school uniform policy with success. If the results showed no difference in graduation, attendance, and suspension rates between schools that had school uniforms and those that did not, then administrators and policy makers may be wise to search for other strategies to improve their schools.Requiring school uniforms may increase the number of students who graduate by giving them needed structure. Attendance may also improve when students have guidelines that foster positive behaviors, and suspensions may decrease when teachers and administrators help students with the transition to the professional demeanor. ····· 1036118333

The PGCE is a generalist educator`s qualification that caps an undergraduate qualification. PGCE students must therefore be in possession of a degree or suitable qualification. The candidate should offer at least two school subjects. In addition the student teachers must have complied with the requirements regarding the official languages. The pre-service students will have to undertake teaching practice as part of the curriculum and will have practical assessments in the work-integrated learning environment. The focus is on developing practical competence reflexively grounded in educational theory. With this qualification a balance is created between practical competence and educational theory.

für 44.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray Explanations to the increase in incidences of student indiscipline in schools have been varied and controversy exists among general public as to what contributes to student indiscipline in schools. Some stakeholders in education have attributed the upsurge in student indiscipline to the policy of outlawing of corporal punishment and have thus called for the re-introduction of its use. This book analyses teachers attitudes towards outlawing of corporal punishment in Kenya, and also whether their demographic data like gender and age influence their attitudes. The author also examines whether teachers have been trained on alternative methods of discipline like counselling. She observes that teachers have a negative attitude towards outlawing of corporal punishment in schools because their opinions on outlawing of corporal punishment were not sought. This book recommends that the Kenya government should train the teachers on alternative methods to corporal punishment and also create awareness on the overall effects of corporal punishment on the child. This book is relevant to teachers, teacher training colleges and policy makers in Education in Kenya and elsewhere. ····· 1036118281

However, there is a great deal of room for development, innovation and improvement in almost every aspect of this subject and it is a field which will continue to provide exciting challenges for many years to come. The purpose of physical or realistic model is to simulate, in the laboratory, the behaviour of the full-scale prototype. Careful selection of model materials and loading methods allows the observation and measurement of not just realistic behaviour, but also plastic deformation, viscous flow, and fracture. Physical models are in use in many disciplines, for example in civil engineering in the construction of dams, rock slopes, aircraft industry, mining engineering in the study of underground excavation and subsequently deformation produced at various stages of excavations. When properly designed and constructed, the physical model can be a valuable aid to design. The further important advantage, when properly constructed using suitable materials of physical model is that it gives quantitative deformation. ····· 1036118140· 1 · ::::: · 61 ·· 62 ·· 63 ·· 64 ·· 65 ·· 66 ·· 67 · ::::: · 74 ·
