A Comparative Analysis Of Two Independent Power Plants Under Different Ownership, Rangash Natarajan

Student Works (2000-2009)

Many governments have turned to private investors, especially Independent Power Producers (IPPs), to provide some or all of the nation's power requirements. The main reasons for this are: a) to eliminate the financial burden of the government, b) to promote competition in the generation sector to improve operating efficiency and reduce generating cost, and c) to transfer power generation technology, especially in the developing nations, at a rapid pace. In line with world trends, the Malaysian government, in 1993, deregulated its power generation sector. This was done in order to overcome the shortage of installed capacity due to an increase …

The results show that attitudes of students were more positive when they were allowed to choose a single friend in the group.

Managing A Ripple In The New Wave Of Education Initiatives: Validity Of Assessment, Judson C. Faurer

Mountain Plains Journal of Business and Technology

With the increased attention to, and interest in, Distance Education/Online courses by academic institutions, students, and faculty, there is a concomitant increase in the difficulty of assessing the integrity of the assignments produced by students. Academic institutions see the opportunity for increased enrollment without an increase in campus facilities. Students appreciate the flexibility in scheduling and the self-paced opportunity while faculty may have mixed feeling about the drawn out interaction with and between students and the lack of assurance that assignments submitted are truly the work of the respective student. Personal experience and discussion with students and other faculty validates …

In order for Professional Development Schools to be successful in educational reform, it is necessary to focus on defining and delineating the essential characteristics of Professional Development Schools and the process o f their …
