The proposed study also assessed influential factors (motivators and barriers) as measured by a survey questionnaire and examined them in terms of sex, academic field, and years of teaching experience.;Statistical methods of analysis for this study used means, standard deviations, frequencies, percentages, factor analysis, a 3-way factorial ANOVA, and Scheffe's Post Hoc Analysis. Based on 227 responses, the findings indicate …
Participation In Accelerated Reader Programs And Reading Pursuit In 11th Grade, Heather E. Boucher
Participation In Accelerated Reader Programs And Reading Pursuit In 11th Grade, Heather E. Boucher
Graduate Theses, Dissertations, and Problem Reports (ETD)
Teachers and researchers continue to seek ways to build positive attitudes about reading and effective ways to promote robust reading interests. Some schools have implemented the reading software Accelerated Reader (AR) with these goals in mind. The purpose of the present study was to analyze the effects of long-term participation in the activities of AR on reading attitude and reading pursuit. Participants were 206 eleventh-grade students from the mid-Atlantic Region. The Estes Attitude Scale (Estes, 1969) and Title Recognition Test (Pavonetti, Brimmer, and Cipielewski, 2000) served as measures of reading attitude and reading pursuit, respectively. Data analyses indicated no effects …
Interactions Between Teachers And Students In Four Co -Taught, Inclusive, Middle School Classrooms, Nancy G. Burton
Interactions Between Teachers And Students In Four Co -Taught, Inclusive, Middle School Classrooms, Nancy G. Burton
Graduate Theses, Dissertations, and Problem Reports (ETD)
Co-teaching in inclusive, content classrooms is becoming increasingly more popular as schools work toward the inclusion of significantly more students with special learning needs in the general education environment. Inherent in every classroom environment is the expectation of teacher-student interactions. It is often the relationship between the teacher and the student that provides opportunities for student achievement and success. The daily interactions that occur between teachers and their students set the tone for the successes and failures that may be realized as a result. The purpose of this study, therefore, is to explore and identify both the context and frequency …

ANOVA, t test, were used for hypothesis tests. Regression and multiple regressions were used to calculate effect sizes, which quantified the differences between groups.;The major findings …
Prescribing Safety In Primary Care. Comparing The United Kingdom And Saudi Arabia, Haya S. Zedan, Anthony J. Avery
Prescribing Safety In Primary Care. Comparing The United Kingdom And Saudi Arabia, Haya S. Zedan, Anthony J. Avery
Saudi Medical Journal
Most consultations in primary care end with a prescription for medication. As a result, the potential for error in prescriptions and the potential harm to patients must be carefully considered and action taken to increase the safety of patients in these situations. Policy makers and health professionals have an obligation to protect public health. This review aims to compare and critically assess the main policies, initiatives, and guidance that have been developed to improve the safety of prescribing in primary care in the United Kingdom and Saudi Arabia. The report also suggests particular areas of need that might be addressed …

The Pluralistic Universe Of Law Towards A Neo-Classical Legal Pragmatism, Susan Haack
The Pluralistic Universe Of Law Towards A Neo-Classical Legal Pragmatism, Susan Haack
Articles
After a brief sketch of the history of philosophical pragmatism generally, and of legal pragmatism specifically (section 1), this paper develops a new, neo-classical legal pragmatism: a theory of law drawing in part on Holmes, but also on ideas from the classical pragmatist tradition in philosophy. Main themes are the "pluralistic universe" of law (section 2); the evolution of legal systems (section 3); the place of logic in the law (section 4); and the relation of law and morality (section 5).

Corporate Venture Capital, Disembodied Experimentation And Capability Development, Thomas Keil, Ekko Autio, Gerard George
Research Collection Lee Kong Chian School Of Business
Studies invoking a capabilities lens often ascribe deliberateness in organizational decisions to develop new capabilities. Drawing on five longitudinal case studies of large, global firms in the information and communication technology sector, we examine how firms engender cognizance of their future capability needs in situations characterized by high decision-making uncertainty. We develop a theoretical account of how firms use investments in start-ups to actively engage in experimentation outside organizational boundaries, a learning process which we term as disembodied experimentation. Disembodied experimentation creates awareness of voids in the capability base of an incumbent and helps to overcome inertial restraints thereby influencing …

Saving The Wto From The Risk Of Irrelevance: The Wto Dispute Settlement Mechanism As A Common Good For Rta Disputes, Henry Gao, Chin Leng Lim
Saving The Wto From The Risk Of Irrelevance: The Wto Dispute Settlement Mechanism As A Common Good For Rta Disputes, Henry Gao, Chin Leng Lim
Research Collection Yong Pung How School Of Law
Over the past few decades, Regional Trade Agreements (RTAs) have proliferated globally. Such proliferation of RTAs created a renewed sense of urgency for the WTO to take action in order to avoid the fate of being eclipsed into irrelevance. There are several options for coping with the challenge. Theoretically speaking, the best approach would be to heighten the level of ambition in global trade talks to reduce all trade barriers to zero so that the discriminatory effect created by RTAs could be reduced or even eliminated. In reality, such an approach would be impossible for well-known reasons. The next best …
Style Investing And Institutional Investors, Kenneth Froot, Melvyn Teo
Style Investing And Institutional Investors, Kenneth Froot, Melvyn Teo
Research Collection Lee Kong Chian School Of Business
This paper explores the importance and price implications of style investing by institutional investors in the stock market. To analyze styles, we assign stocks to deciles or segments across three style dimensions: size, value/growth, and sector. We find strong evidence that institutional investors reallocate across style groupings more intensively than across random stock groupings. In addition, we show that own segment style inflows and returns positively forecast future stock returns, while distant segment style inflows and returns forecast negatively. We argue that behavioral theories play a role in explaining these results.
Trust And Satisfaction, Two Stepping Stones For Successful E-Commerce Relationships: A Longitudinal Exploration, Dan J. Kim, Donald L. Ferrin, H. Raghav Rao
Trust And Satisfaction, Two Stepping Stones For Successful E-Commerce Relationships: A Longitudinal Exploration, Dan J. Kim, Donald L. Ferrin, H. Raghav Rao
Research Collection Lee Kong Chian School Of Business
Trust and satisfaction are essential ingredients for successful business relationships in business-to-consumer electronic commerce. Yet there is little research on trust and satisfaction in e-commerce that takes a longitudinal approach. Drawing on three primary bodies of literature, the theory of reasoned action, the extended valence framework, and expectation-confirmation theory, this study synthesizes a model of consumer trust and satisfaction in the context of e-commerce. The model considers not only how consumers formulate their prepurchase decisions, but also how they form their long-term relationships with the same website vendor by comparing their prepurchase expectations to their actual purchase outcome. The results …
Into The Great Wide Open: The West-German Modernist Bungalow Of The 1960s As A Psycho-Political Re-Creation Of Home, Carola Ebert
Into The Great Wide Open: The West-German Modernist Bungalow Of The 1960s As A Psycho-Political Re-Creation Of Home, Carola Ebert
RIT Digital Archives
It was in the late the 1950s—on the brink of a prospering, forward-looking era after the re-building of destroyed cities—that the term ‘Bungalow’ arrived in West-Germany, where it took on specific cultural connotations that differ from those in the Anglo-American world. Paradoxically, in Germany the term itself is understood in reference to this world until today, even if the West- German bungalow differs greatly in its architecture. The West-German bungalow marks the intersection of two global phenomena: bungalow culture and modern architecture. Its cultural significance however, can only be understood in relation to the particulars of German history. I will …
Social Movements And The Dynamics Of Rural Territorial Development In Latin America, Anthony J. Bebbington, Ricardo Abramovay, Manuel Chiriboga
Social Movements And The Dynamics Of Rural Territorial Development In Latin America, Anthony J. Bebbington, Ricardo Abramovay, Manuel Chiriboga
Geography
This special section brings together 4 of the 12 studies conducted within a research program analyzing the relationships among social mobilization, governance, and rural development in contemporary Latin America. The introduction gives an overview of the contemporary significance of social movements for rural development dynamics in the region, and of the principal insights of the section papers and the broader research program of which they were a part. This significance varies as an effect of two distinct and uneven geographies: the geography of social movements themselves and the geography of the rural political economy. The effects that movements have on …
