Designing The Social Environment For Online Learning: The Role Of Social Presence, Charlotte Nirmalani Gunawardena Jan 2004

Designing The Social Environment For Online Learning: The Role Of Social Presence, Charlotte Nirmalani Gunawardena

University Libraries & Learning Sciences Faculty and Staff Publications

A major challenge to designing online learning is the development of appropriate means to facilitate the social environment that is critical for higher-order learning in many disciplines. In many online learning designs, the majority of resources are channeled to web interface design and technology, while little or no resources are devoted to facilitating the teaching and learning process, the negotiation of meaning and the validation of knowledge among peers and instructors that depends on a conducive socio-cultural environment and adequate learner support. This paper seeks to address this issue by examining one factor, social presence that has been shown to …

To Ghana: February-March 2004, Keith Clouten Jan 2004

To Ghana: February-March 2004, Keith Clouten

Faculty Publications

The first indication that Ghana might be on my travel itinerary came during the ASDAL Conference 2000 held at Andrews University. Vida Mensah, who is library director at Valley View University in Ghana, was among several librarians who came to that conference from places worldwide. As the conference workshops drew to a close, Vida stopped by my office to talk about Valley View’s need for a new library, and to ask for my help in preparing specifications for a building. Nothing was promised, but there was an underlying assumption that I would come to Valley View University sometime soon to …

Comparative Study Of Logistics Services In The Container Liner Shipping Market In The U.K. And South Korea, Ki Soon Hwang Jan 2004

Comparative Study Of Logistics Services In The Container Liner Shipping Market In The U.K. And South Korea, Ki Soon Hwang

Plymouth Business School Theses

In line with the dramatic changes of business environment, certain liner shipping companies have claimed that what they are providing is a 'logistics service' rather than a 'traditional shipping service'. It was found that there is a shortage of discussion in existing literature related to the liner shipping industry regarding the introduction of logistics service and no empirical study on how the operation of such a logistics service has been perceived by shippers. The prime objective of the research is to provide a practical clarification to understanding an operation of logistics service in the liner shipping market. The Delphi technique …

Raised Intracranial Pressure Presenting With Spontaneous Periorbital Bruising: Two Case Reports, S Hadjikoutis, Cb Carroll, Gtp Plant Jan 2004

Raised Intracranial Pressure Presenting With Spontaneous Periorbital Bruising: Two Case Reports, S Hadjikoutis, Cb Carroll, Gtp Plant

Peninsula Medical School

The venous drainage of the orbit is known to be via the ophthalmic and vortex veins which communicate with the cavernous sinus. We describe two patients with raised intracranial pressure presenting with periorbital bruising. In one patient dural venous sinus thrombosis was demonstrated and it is suspected that the cause of the raised intracranial pressure may have been the same in the second. We suggest that the abrupt rise of pressure in the cerebral venous system was transmitted via the cavernous sinus to the orbital venous system.

Gats Impacts On Entry Modes And Defensive Marketing Strategies In The Egyptian Banking Sector, Mansour Salman Mohamad Abdel-Maguid Lotayif Jan 2004

Gats Impacts On Entry Modes And Defensive Marketing Strategies In The Egyptian Banking Sector, Mansour Salman Mohamad Abdel-Maguid Lotayif

Plymouth Business School Theses

This research examines the effects of GATS agreements, both on entry modes and defensive marketing strategies in the Egyptian banking sector. The research population is the Egyptian banking sector, employing a total of 83179, from which a representative sample (equal to 800 responses) was selected. As the research aims are diversified, this sample was divided into two main groups i.e. local banks and foreign branches, investigated using different questionnaires. The latter population includes all the foreign branches working in the Egyptian market; the former includes all banks working in Egypt regardless of their ownership status. Four objectives have been pursued …

Trust In Client-Service Provider Relationships, Sven Markus Huth Jan 2004

Trust In Client-Service Provider Relationships, Sven Markus Huth

Plymouth Business School Theses

In the age of rapidly changing and competitive environments, companies are forced to build strong and long-lasting relationships with their customers. Over the last decades, marketing theory and practice developed a plethora of attempts to describe relevant factors, underlying correlations and complex constructs, explaining the relationship between buyer and seller. For several disciplines, which are part of, describe or influence the relationship between buyer and seller such as a) marketing, b) customer purchase behaviour and c) sales management and personal selling, it appears that trust has a strong impact and therefore is an important variable for building long-lasting relationships. Although …
