Notas Para Una Agenda De Investigación Sobre El Académico En La Educación Superior Mexicana, Jesús F. Galaz-Fontes
Notas Para Una Agenda De Investigación Sobre El Académico En La Educación Superior Mexicana, Jesús F. Galaz-Fontes
Jesús Francisco Galaz Fontes
Asociado a las recientes transformaciones de la educación superior Mexicana ha emergido un nuevo "académico" al que, a pesar de los esfuerzos realizados a la fecha, todavía no conocemos satisfactoriamente. Tomando en cuenta dichas transformaciones, la investigación realizada en el país, la tradición Estadounidense respectiva y una visión sustentada en el hecho de trabajar como académico en una institución publica estatal, este trabajo identifica, respecto del académico, algunas áreas que demandan una mayor atención. Las áreas identificadas se agrupan en seis categorías: (1) aspectos históricos; (2) información censal y características sociodemográficas; (3) la delimitación del trabajo académico; (4) la carrera …
Phd Thesis (Doctorat De Spécialité): Université De Ouagadougou, 1999. Dr. Mamoudou H. Dicko. Purification Et Propriétés Physico-Chimiques Des Enzymes De Curculigo Pilosa, Gladiolus Klattianus Et Boscia Senegalensis Catalysant L'Hydrolyse Des Polysaccharides (Amidon Et Béta-Glucanes), Mamoudou H. Dicko Prof.
Pr. Mamoudou H. DICKO, PhD
The objective of this study was the research of novel and inexpensive sources of polysaccharides degrading enzymes such as amylases and glucanases from local plants in order to justify their biotechnological applications. The isolation of two l3-amylases and an endo-1,3-ß-D-glucanase was reached using common protein purification methods such as buffer extraction, ammonium sulfate fractionation, ionexchange and gel filtration chromatographies. The methods used were simple and easily reproducible, suggesting the possibilfty of large-scale production. ln the crude extract of Curculigo pilosa tuber, only ß-amylase was detected as starch degrading enzyme and its activity was approximately 282 Uig of fresh material. The …
Institutional Changes And Discretionary Value For Property Rights In Drylands’ Farming Of The Sudan, Professor Issam A.W. Mohamed
Institutional Changes And Discretionary Value For Property Rights In Drylands’ Farming Of The Sudan, Professor Issam A.W. Mohamed
Professor Issam A.W. Mohamed
Research on land tenure and use control and the socioeconomic sets of regulations in the agricultural rainfed sub sector of Sudan, come to focus for many reasons. Anthropogenic pressure, expanding animal population and migration led to accelerated impacts on both the ecological systems and land yields. Conflicts between governmental regulations and indigenous rules contribute to generate inconsistencies on who have the right to till the land and hence own it. With such transformation logically, more intensive commercial farming took place and land intake exponentially increased. Private or collective property rights of land are procured through traditional tenure, prescription, settlement or …

The Tarlqat Al- 'Alawiyyah And The Emergence Of The Shi'i School In Indonesia And Malaysia, Syed Farid Alatas
farid alatas
The recent emergence and current development of the Imami Shi'i school in Indonesia and Malaysia can only be understood against the backdrop of the early history of the Si 'ah, as well as that of the history of the Islamization of the Malay-Indonesian tor that binds these three historical processes together in a remarkable case of "conversion" within Islam is the 'olawiyyali sufi order (al-tariqah Archipelago. The common fac-al- 'alawiyyah). The tariqah al- 'alawiyyah is the path of the Siidat Bani 'alawiyyah. The Siidah al- 'alawiyyah (sing. sayyid), of the Shafi'i madhab (school of jurisprudence), originate from the Hadramawt, Yemen …

Género Y Políticas De Educación Superior En México, Roberto Rodríguez-Gómez

Las políticas de la educación superior en México y el género son, desde luego, un tema complejo, que ofrece varias y diversas posibilidades de aproximación, entre otras: ¿cuáles han sido las líneas de política pública en el ámbito de la educación superior proyectadas desde un enfoque de género?, ¿cuáles son los efectos de las políticas educativas gubernamentales sobre las oportunidades de acceso y promoción en la enseñanza superior?, ¿de qué manera se intersectan las políticas específicas que están orientando cambios en la educación superior con las formas de desigualdad de género prevalecientes?, ¿hasta qué punto podemos discernir analíticamente las dinámicas …
Problems With Peirce's Concept Of Abduction, Michael H.G. Hoffmann
Problems With Peirce's Concept Of Abduction, Michael H.G. Hoffmann
Michael H.G. Hoffmann
Abductive reasoning takes place in forming "hypotheses" in order to explain "facts." Thus, the concept of abduction promises an understanding of creativity in science and learning. It raises, however, also a lot of problems. Some of them will be discussed in this paper: After analyzing the difference between induction and abduction (1), I shall discuss Peirce's claim that there is a "logic" of abduction (2). The thesis is that this claim can be understood, if we make a clear distinction between inferential elements and perceptive elements of abductive reasoning. For Peirce, the creative act of forming explanatory hypotheses and the …

Journalism/ Mass Communication Program World Wide Web Sites: Content, Functionality And Promotional Value, Douglas J. Swanson Ed.D Apr
Douglas J. Swanson, Ed.D APR
Despite the popularity of promotionally-oriented Web sites within journalism/ mass communication programs in higher education, there has been little examination of sites and their contents. Almost no research has focused on visual, informational, and operational enhancements, or how Web sites of different higher education programs in the discipline differ from each other. This research addresses some of the unanswered questions about how journalism/ mass communication Web sites use enhancements to communicate with online users.

An Enduring Voice In American Indian Education: The Arizona State University Center For Indian Education, 1959-1999, Jeffrey P. Shepherd
Jeffrey P Shepherd
This article provides a narrative analysis of the history of the Center for Indian Education at Arizona State University. As the premier center for native educational issues, the CIE played a crucial role in raising awareness about educational disparities on Indian reservations. The Center trained thousands of future teachers that have built lasting educational systems for native children across the country. In addition, the CIE shaped state and national educational policy by playing a historic role in the civil rights activities of the 1960s and 1970s. Today, the Center continues to contribute to educational training and policy across the state …

Institutional Context And The Development Of Critical Thinking: A Research Note, Linda Serra Hagedorn, Ernest T. Pascarella, Marcia Edison, John Braxton, Amaury Nora, Patrick T. Terenzini
Linda Serra Hagedorn
It has long been a central aim of American postsecondary education to foster students' critical thinking skills. There are various definitions of critical thinking, but there seems to be a consensus that a constituent set of cognitive skills involves some or all of the following: making correct inferences from data, identifying central issues or assumptions in an argument, deducing conclusions from information or data provided, interpreting whether [End Page 265] conclusions are warranted on the basis of data given, and evaluating the validity of an argument (Brabeck & Wood, 1990; Furedy & Furedy, 1985; McMillan, 1987; Pascarella & Terenzini, 1991). …

New Migration And Racism In Cyprus: The Racialisation Of Migrant Workers, Nicos Trimikliniotis
New Migration And Racism In Cyprus: The Racialisation Of Migrant Workers, Nicos Trimikliniotis
Nicos Trimikliniotis
This paper sets out to examine the processes of racialisation of temporary migrant or 'foreign' labour in Cyprus, a country traditionally exporting migrants but recently transformed into one of hosting migrants. It considers policies and rights relating to migrant workers and examines discourses around migration found in the Greek Cypriot press and magazines. It also examines the role of employers and trade unions in the racialisation of migrant workers. It considers how conceptualisations of ‘race’ and racism, and their interrelation with class, are useful in understanding and explaining the processes by which the people are excluded, inferiorised and exploited.
