جدلية العلاقة بين المنهج العلمي والدراسات الإنسانية المفاهيم والتأثير, د. أحمد عبد الجبار فاضل

Midad AL-Adab Refereed Quarterly Journal

ويعد أول ظهور للعلوم الإنسانية في القرن التاسع عشر كمحاولة للتخلص من شمولية الفلسفة لكل تلك العلوم، ولذلك اختصت العلوم الإنسانية بتناول دراسة الذات الإنسانية وأنشطتها في صورها المختلفة، ويتم ذلك عبر عدة علوم مكونة للعلوم الإنسانية هي :

• الدراسات الدينية، علم الآثار، ثقافات الشعوب الإقليمية، الأدب والنقد، علم الاجتماع، الموسيقى، علم الأنثروبولوجيا، دراسات الفلسفة، التاريخ، تاريخ الفن ونظرياته. وتعد علوم اللغة ومنها الادب والنقد، من اكثر العلوم الانسانية تأثرا بظهور المنهج العلمي في الدراسة والبحث . ومن هذا المنطلق يحاول هذا البحث مقاربة هذه القضية الاشكالية، وفق رؤية وصفية تحليلية تاريخية. إن اول مشكل يواجه البحث يتمثل في …


اللغة العربية والتحديات المعاصرة العولمة أنموذجاً, أ.د. خديجة زبار الحمداني, أ.م.د. محمد ضياء الدين خليل إبراهيم Nov 2022

اللغة العربية والتحديات المعاصرة العولمة أنموذجاً, أ.د. خديجة زبار الحمداني, أ.م.د. محمد ضياء الدين خليل إبراهيم

Midad AL-Adab Refereed Quarterly Journal

نظرا لأهمية اللغة في حياة الأمم والشعوب والأفراد, حرصت القوى الكبرى التي تبنت مشروع العولمة منذ زمن بعيد على أن تجعل للغاتها السبق والتميز على غيرها من اللغات, فاللغة تقوم بدور جد خطير في قضية العولمة؛ لأنَّها الأداة التي يتحقق بها الامتزاج المتنوع الذي تهدف إليه العولمة.

فالتحدي الذي يواجه اللغة العربية في هذا العصر مرده إلى الشعور المبالغ فيه بأهمية اللغة الأجنبية الناتج غالباً عن الانبهار بكل ما هو أجنبي, والظن الزائف بأنَّ التقدم لايأتي إلَّا من خلال إتقان هذه اللغة الأجنبية للجميع, فالولع باللفظ الأجنبي يؤدي بكثير من الناس إلى ترك اللفظ العربي الميسر إلى اللفظ الغريب.

ويهدف …

دور العلوم الإنسانية في التصدي للعولمة والتغريب, أ.م. د. عبد الرحمن إبراهيم حمد الغنطوسي

Midad AL-Adab Refereed Quarterly Journal

لقد كثر الحديث عن العولمة والتغريب في السنوات العشر الأخيرة من القرن العشرين ، فتناولتها بالحديث الأوساط الجامعية والإعلامية والتيارات الفكرية والسياسية المختلفة، وأصبحت حديث الاجتماعيين والفلاسفة الأوربيين وعلماء البيئة والطبيعة وكثرت أعداد الندوات والمؤتمرات والمحاضرات التي تحمل عناوينهما "العولمة" أو النظام العالمي الجديد أو المتغيرات الدولية الجديدة أو الكونية. نقول لدين في العلوم الإنسانية رجال ومفكرين ، وإنهم نماذج شامخة، وأطواد راسخة في العلم والتقوى، وأعلام بارزة في العلم والفقه والفتوى، فضائلهم لا تُجارى، ومناقبهم لا تُبارى، وقفوا في وجه العولمة والتغريب وهؤلاء العلماء هم المعتنين بالدليل والأثر ولقد صدرت كثير من المؤلفات باللغات الأوربية والعربية التي تتناول ظاهرة …

Maneuvering Mestizaje In Shakespeare's Tragicomedies, Andrea Phiana Borunda Nov 2022

Maneuvering Mestizaje In Shakespeare's Tragicomedies, Andrea Phiana Borunda

English Language and Literature ETDs

This project explores and wades through the implications of mestizaje in the murky depths of Shakespeare’s oceans. Disguises and mistakes in identities and in gender and “race” draw on the hybridity and indeterminacy of the early modern stage and its fluidity and lack of order to reflect an unhomed and unmediated formation of nationhood, diaspora, and (trans)global identities. Drawing on ecocritical and critical race theories, I contend the tragicomic works of Shakespeare expose and dismantle ecoracial fantasies of white male supremacy to curate a space of mestizaje for a new generation of BIPOC scholars.

In Vitro Liquid Culture Of The Mollusc-Parasitic Nematode Phasmarhabditis (Rhabditida: Rhabditidae), A. Pieterse, S. Haukeland, V. Půža, J. L. Ross, A. P. Malan

All Peer-Reviewed Publications

The success of the mollusc-parasitic nematode, Phasmarhabditis hermaphrodita (Schneider) Andrássy (Rhabditida: Rhabditidae), as a biological control agent in Europe has led to worldwide interest in phasmarhabditids as biocontrol agents. In this study, the mass culture potential of three phasmarhabditids, namely Phasmarhabditis papillosa, Phasmarhabditis kenyaensis and Phasmarhabditis bohemica, was assessed. In addition, ten bacterial candidates, consisting of seven associated with slugs and three associated with entomopathogenic nematodes, were investigated. The bacteria were tested for their ability to cause mortality to Deroceras invadens, as well as to support nematode growth. Initial mortality studies demonstrated that Kluyvera, Aeromonas and Pseudomonas spp. (AP3) caused …

The Conquest Of Milk: The Rise Of Lactase Persistence And The Fall Of Scandinavian Hunter-Gatherers, Nicholas Mays Nov 2022

The Conquest Of Milk: The Rise Of Lactase Persistence And The Fall Of Scandinavian Hunter-Gatherers, Nicholas Mays

James Madison Undergraduate Research Journal (JMURJ)

Over half of the global human population suffers from lactase nonpersistence, a condition marked by losing the ability to digest lactose after infancy. However, a minority of the global population, primarily located in Central and Northern Europe, has a genetic mutation that results in lactase persistence, which is the continued ability to process lactose after infancy. This interdisciplinary analysis blends archaeology, cultural anthropology, evolutionary biology, and archaeogenetics to explore the origin and rise of lactase persistence in Europe and its contribution to the end of hunter-gatherer societies in Scandinavia. Furthermore, the paper uses gene-culture coevolutionary theory to argue that lactase …

Schools As Community Hubs. Literature Review, Ian Teo, Pru Mitchell, Fabienne Van Der Kleij, Anna Dabrowski

School and system improvement

This literature review focuses on community hub models that include an education setting. The goals of these hubs go beyond improving academic outcomes, and look also to the health and wellbeing of their community. This review explores the ways in which education communities operate as welcoming and enriching places that connect, share, and learn with, not only students, families, and educators, but also their wider community. It focuses on a specific model of school-community partnership, typically known as a school community hub. Core features of community hubs are presented as people, partnerships, place and programs. Benefits and challenges of community …


Moral Foundations In Bunkerville And Malheur, David Keith Frey Nov 2022

Moral Foundations In Bunkerville And Malheur, David Keith Frey

Theses and Dissertations

The events of the Bunkerville standoff and the Malheur wildlife refuge occupation were both important confrontations with the government by the western land rights movement. Participants in and responders to the events engage in distinct moral judgments and rationales. Utilizing cultural schema analysis and moral foundations theory (MFT), I explored the differences in rationales and judgments made by participants and responders in their explicit, public moral discourses of both events. My analysis indicates that responders and participants defined and utilized the same moral foundations, but in distinct ways. Participants were more diverse in their invocation of moral foundations while responders …


Teachers Of General Education: Perceptions And Experiences Teaching Inclusion In U.S. Schools, Ann C. Sander Nov 2022

Teachers Of General Education: Perceptions And Experiences Teaching Inclusion In U.S. Schools, Ann C. Sander

Teacher Education, Educational Leadership & Policy ETDs

This phenomenological qualitative study explored the perceptions and experiences of a group of U.S. public schools, kindergarten through fifth grade teachers, certified in general education with experience teaching inclusion--a federally mandated practice requiring schools to educate students both with and without disabilities in the same classroom. Much of the literature surrounding inclusion focuses on the perceived benefits of the program and children with disabilities' legal rights. The literature has a limited number of references describing the perceptions and experiences of teachers who are required to provide the educational services necessary for inclusion in the classroom.

In this study, 35 participants …


Collective Proving Activity In A Synchronous Online Environment, Tenchita Alzaga Elizondo Nov 2022

Collective Proving Activity In A Synchronous Online Environment, Tenchita Alzaga Elizondo

Dissertations and Theses

Given the well documented fact students often struggle with proof and proof-related activity for various reasons, more educators have shifted to incorporating pedagogies involving collaborative learning given their benefits to student learning. However, there is still surprisingly little research focused on the nature of students' collaborative proving activity. Moreover, the recent COVID-19 pandemic, and subsequent shift to remote learning, forced educators and students to adapt and learn how to work within a new learning environment. In this dissertation project, I investigate how students engage in collaborative proving activity in a synchronous online introduction to proofs course. In the first paper, …

Theo Huxtable Becomes A Historian: Culturally Relevant, Disciplinary Writing In The Secondary Social Studies Classroom, Teaira Mcmurtry Phd

The Councilor: A National Journal of the Social Studies

This article brings together three conceptualizations —Disciplinary Literacy (DL) (Shanahan & Shanahan, 2008), Culturally Relevant Teaching (CRT) (Ladson-Billings, 1995, 2009), and the African Verbal Tradition (AVT) (Smitherman, 2000)— to demonstrate how a groundbreaking event in history, such as the Civil Rights March on Washington is taught through the confluence of literacy practices reading, writing, and thinking--specifically, historical practices in social studies such as sourcing, contextualization, and corroboration.

This mini-unit uses the classic sitcom The Cosby Show as a frame to teach students the investigative process of writing a historical analysis about a recent historical event. In the show, entitled “The …


The Effectiveness Of Planned And Incidental Focus On Form In Learning Grammatical Concepts In Two Spanish As L 2 Classrooms, Rebeca Monasterio Nov 2022

The Effectiveness Of Planned And Incidental Focus On Form In Learning Grammatical Concepts In Two Spanish As L 2 Classrooms, Rebeca Monasterio

Theses and Dissertations

The present research study examines the effectiveness of two types of in two Spanish classrooms for beginner students: planned focus on form and incidental focus on form. Focus on form is understood as an instructional practice that creates a real-life context to let students practice some aspects of the language in a communicative environment based on both meaning and form. In this study, planned focus on form is operationalized as input enhancement in classroom materials and teacher talk. On the other hand, incidental focus on form involves teacher´s spontaneous attention to form in teacher talk. Language learning was measured through …


Marshalling Copyright Knowledge To Understand Four Decades Of Berne, Peter K. Yu Nov 2022

Marshalling Copyright Knowledge To Understand Four Decades Of Berne, Peter K. Yu

IP Theory

In the year 1978, the 1976 Copyright Act had just entered into effect. Marshall Leaffer, whom this article will affectionately refer to by his first name, had just completed his duties as an attorney advisor at the U.S. Copyright Office. On his way to academia, he, like the fictional character Captain William “Buck” Rogers, was to experience cosmic forces beyond all comprehension. In a freak mishap, his car veered off a rarely used mountain road and was frozen by temperatures beyond imagination. He did not return to academia until more than forty years later. What will he discover upon his …

Biblical Based Servant Leadership And The Liberian Methodist Church: Lessons From The Christological Hymn In Phil. 2:7-11, Daniel Reeves

Doctor of Ministry Projects and Theses

Sometimes a biblical understanding of leadership challenges cultural and traditional understanding. It’s the context of the Liberian traditional and cultural understanding of leadership that my research will focus on. My project will show the continued need for servant leadership, which is demonstrated by the portrait of Jesus in the Christological hymn and the Gospel. The theses will focus on contrasting traditional Christian leadership within the United Methodist Church in Liberia with the humility of Jesus’ servant leadership. This research hopes to offer academic authentic transformative ideas of servant leadership and intentional examples to the continuous study of servant leadership. However, …

Predicting Users’ Personality On Social Media: A Comparative Study Of Different Machine Learning Techniques, Ali Saadi Al-Fallooji, Ahmed Al-Azawei Nov 2022

Predicting Users’ Personality On Social Media: A Comparative Study Of Different Machine Learning Techniques, Ali Saadi Al-Fallooji, Ahmed Al-Azawei

Karbala International Journal of Modern Science

The use of social media sites (SMSs) becomes ubiquitous worldwide as the number of users is noticeably increasing. This has led to exploiting such sites by market, business, and educational companies to deliver content that meets users’ personal needs. However, this requires identifying users’ personalities to respond to their individual preferences. This research aims at (1) analyzing users' posts on SMSs to predict their personality based on the Meyers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) model, (2) comparing the performance accuracy of different preprocessing and data mining techniques, and (3) improving the prediction accuracy of users' personality types. The used dataset includes 8668 …

The research focused on how I as a teacher-built trust and respect through place—here, the classroom, classroom activities, and discussions—thereby creating a place for students to express their thoughts and feelings and to build relationships with the teacher and their classmates for learning to occur. This study also analyzed how using critical race and borderlands theories influences and shapes Mexican American students’ educational experiences beyond a …


Review Of Interrogating The ‘Germanic’: A Category And Its Use In Late Antiquity And The Early Middle Ages, Ed. Matthias Friedrich And James M. Harland, Erica Buchberger Nov 2022

Review Of Interrogating The ‘Germanic’: A Category And Its Use In Late Antiquity And The Early Middle Ages, Ed. Matthias Friedrich And James M. Harland, Erica Buchberger

History Faculty Publications

This volume derives from a 2017 conference with the aim of developing, as James Harland and Matthias Friedrich’s introduction states, an ‘interdisciplinary channel of communication’ (p. 5) for determining why the term ‘Germanic’ can be used neutrally in some disciplines but not others. Discussion of ‘Germanic’ has in the past been fraught with vitriol and the stains of nationalism, and popular misuse of the ideas behind it (at Charlottesville, Virginia, in 2017, for example) makes it all the more imperative that if scholars use the term they should get it right. Friedrich and Harland’s volume re-examines the question of whether …


Evaluating The Effect Of Public Health Governance Structure And Public Opinion On Covid-19 Disease Control Interventions, Daniel Chacreton Nov 2022

Evaluating The Effect Of Public Health Governance Structure And Public Opinion On Covid-19 Disease Control Interventions, Daniel Chacreton

USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations

Background

Since the start of the COVID-19 outbreak, the responses to the pandemic varied greatly from nation to nation. In the US, state-level variance in responses has likely contributed to the disparate COVID-19 infection-related state-level outcomes such as incidence and case fatality rates. The large variances in national and sub-national responses to COVID-19 when combined with the abundance of factors that influence disease transmission rates has created a number of important research opportunities.

Methods

In this vain, this research study aims to describe the relationship that exists between public health governance structure and public sentiment and COVID-19 control measure effectiveness …
