Abstract: English-medium-instruction (EMI hereafter) Universities pose several challenges to English Language Learners (ELLs hereafter) and language teaching and learning enterprise in the Middle-East. Learning language through poetry is one of them. Poetry can play a significant role in language learning in general and English poems can be used in the language classrooms for effective language learning for ELLs in the Middle East. The review of literature in the field of poetry teaching shows that a comprehensive practical approach to teaching poetry for facilitating language learning is missing and previous scholarship on the subject matter fails to chart out the right course of action in a language classroom for EMI universities in the Middle-East. This paper seeks to explore how contextualizing poetry teaching with a linguistically oriented model, with certain well-defined steps, offers an extensive variety of language learning opportunities to ELLs in the EMI universities in the Middle East.

Abstract: The purpose of this study was to understand the effect of oral health attitude and depression in adolescent asthma and also identify the risk factors that affect asthma. A total sample of 382 adolescents (aged 12-14) answered the questionnaire and all collected survey data were processed using SPSS ver 20.0 for data analyses such as descriptive statistics, Chi-square test, t-test, fisher�s exact test, and logistic regression analysis. The prevalence rate of asthma in female students was lower than male (OR=0.27) students, and the recognition of bad oral health status (OR=6.03) was higher than rate in good subjective oral health. Also, students who were aware of deficient general health condition (OR=4.49) had higher prevalence rate of asthma than other students. In the detailed survey about the oral health attitude, the number of adolescents with asthma who had good oral health attitude in caries and periodontal disease was significantly higher than that of healthy adolescents. The depression of adolescents with asthma was significantly higher than that of normal youth. The factors which affect the adolescents� asthma included oral health attitude (fluoride on the teeth, dental floss), depression, and general characteristic (gender, subjective oral health, subjective general health). These results indicate that adolescents� asthma was affected by oral health attitude and depression. According to the findings, it is necessary to develop and apply the oral health promotion program that includes the education of oral health attitude considering psychological factors especially for adolescents.

Abstract: The paper shows that due to the measures taken in order to create favorable conditions for investing, improvement of legal, organizational and economic development mechanisms of investment activity in Russia, there was an increase of capital flow into the agricultural sector of economy both from budgetary and borrowing sources of financing. It resulted in some economic development of commodity producers but did not course a technological breakthrough, which can be expected due to the intensification of investment flow into the agricultural production. Under ambient limits, mechanisms and tools being used have depleted all possible ways to attract resources. It was proved that the methodology of financial management assessment of the added value in agricultural business widely used in the western countries can become the major tool in mobilization of additional sources of fixed and working capital. The model of functional dependence between yield spread and invested capital was constructed. By the example of Penza Region some necessary calculations, which show that there is an incentive to invest into entrepreneurship in villages and potential of growth of investing effectiveness in agribusiness, were made.

Abstract: This study is conducted in order to analyze the impact of adolescents' body mass index(BMI) and stress on atopic dermatitis(AD) by gender. We analyzed the 11th 'Online survey on adolescents' health(2015)' which is investigated by Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention; the total subjects are 68,043. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, Chi-square test, t-test and logistic regression analysis (SPSS 22.0). The major findings of this study were as follows. The prevalence of AD was higher in female(27.7%) than in male(20.6%). BMI was higher in male(21.12) than female(20.58), and stress was higher in female than male. The prevalence of AD in middle school and high school students were not different in male, but the female was decreased 0.89 times. The probability of AD was 1.17 times higher in obese male than in normal weight, but, it was not influenced by female. The probability of AD was increased from 1.21 to 1.55 times as stress increased in both male and female, In particular, the probability of AD for male(1.55 times) is higher than that for female(1.41 times) when they feel stress very much. We want to provide a basis for the prevention of AD intervention program for male and female adolescent.

The authors consider the awareness of the new role of foreign language, change of purposes, contents, methods and forms that is all structure of the educational process organization that provides representations of substantial ideas of the phenomenon of "foreign language teaching". The authors esteem that the social and pedagogical technology of information culture formation is considered as actual and perspective technologies of linguistic competence formation of modern specialist model in development that is the student of nonlinguistic faculty of pedagogical higher education institution. Results suggest that the federal state educational standards of the higher education constitute a basis of the strategic social and pedagogical technologies of information culture forming in higher education institution. They act as the regulating document of a quality evaluation of specialists training and guarantee their social adaptation to the actual socio-cultural and professional conditions of activity. All disciplines included in the standard, aimed at the formation of information culture, which, of course, in varying degrees play a positive role in the linguistic competence formation, but there is the separate discipline directed to linguistic competence formation. In this article, the authors identify shortcomings and propose several ways to solve the discussed problem.

Abstract: Social media such as television, websites, newspapers, books (analog or digital), among others; require visual signaling systems for his use, navigation, by part of the people; to similarity of the ones used in urban spaces, collective mobilization systems, interiors of buildings, among others; that allow through a signs system, using a diversity of linguistic and visual resources, a general understanding of the physical, virtual or informational spaces, to which want to be accessed, with subsystems to identify and locate places, objects or units information, in order to be able to travel them bodily or visually and cognitively; to satisfy interests of a diversity of users, of different genres, age groups, cultural origin, proper of a globalized world. So it is possible to consider that all these signaling systems have a common basis in their essential function, strategies, sign systems and general structure, giving base to the construction of a unique model, becoming one of the problem types that are solving in each one of the design projects of the communication field. Signaling systems are always present in any medium of social communication and urban space, product or services, to facilitate the use by people.

Abstract: We do not intend in this article to make a history of innovation and even less to have a profound discussion between the definition applied by the exact sciences and the humanities to that concept and, although it is true, we reflect on the theory of the concept of social innovation and the fundamental contribution of Schumpeter - as the father of the word - and economic theories - without explicitly mentioning them - we believe that it is necessary to analyze them from the perspective of Democracy and the Open Society, which should be imposed as a challenge to justice for the People In a Disability Situation in the world of the XXI century, which should have a mostly conciliatory and inclusive vision. In this, the University of Los Lagos, Institution of Higher Education of the State of Chile, has been playing a transcendental role in the insertion of Persons with Disabilities into the world of work and with it, to life in society, making this House of Studies not only fulfills the role of research, teaching and extension, but also, of commitment to citizenship with concrete actions, which will result in the quality of life of the inhabitants of Chile as a whole and with that, make theory and Praxis to become reality.

Abstract: Intertextual relations in D.Amantay�s novel �Flowers and books� (2003) which is the first postmodern novel in Kazakh literature are being studied for the first time in this article. In the introduction, we have reviewed importance of the research, works of investigators of D.Amantay�s novel �Flowers and books�. In the main part, we have identified the author�s reasons to have written the novel, whose experience he relied on when writing the novel which was based on the theory of intertextuality, and the writers of the world literature who had an impact on him. Sources of references in the novel �Flowers and books�, methods of presenting references in the text and their meaning formation role in the text have been defined, and analyses have been conducted on their function and interpretation in the text. As a result: 1. It has been concluded that the writer realized the need for new experiments in literature that was developing in a new level in a post-colonial state, consciously abandoning social realism offered by the Soviet Union. 2. It has been identified that his writing in postmodernism was prompted by crises in the country as well as in literature. 3. References in the novel �Flowers and books� have been defined and systematized conditionally as follows: 1) intertext taken from literary texts and theoretical works 2) intertext made to works dedicated to investigating myths and Turkic history 3) intertext made to religious texts and works dedicated to investigating them. 4. Having considered intertextual relations between the novel �Flowers and books� and works of the post-structuralism writer R.Barthes, it was proved that D.Amantay based his novel on theories of �author�s death� and �Intertextuality�. 5. By studying intertextual relations between D.Amantay�s novel �Flowers and books� and U.Eco�s novel �The Name of the Rose�, essay �Postscript to The Name of the Rose�, J.L. Borges� narrative �Library of Babel�, it has been identified that he relied on their experiences while creating intertext-based novel; 6. References made to myths, different examples of oral literature related to Turkic studies (myths about Turkic nations� origin rooting from wolf, legends about Asan Qaigy who was positioned in Kazakh literature as �Eden seeker�) in the novel have been defined, and their functions and interpretation have been studied. 7. Identifying references made to religious texts (Bible, Quran, Torah, Zabur, �Avesta�, �Collision of worlds� of I.Velikovsky, �Essential sacred writings from around the world� of M.Eliade, religious encyclopeadias), there has been made research of their functions and interpretation in the text.

View Abstract   Hide Abstract   |   PDF Version
Abstract: In earlier days, the network intrusion detection techniques were mainly based on signatures, which describe the intrusive behaviour of the network and hence have become a standard for Intrusion Detection. To develop more efficient and productive approaches, several other alternate techniques have been proposed for improvising the process of Intrusion Detection. The most significant of these approaches include Statistical, Machine Learning and Data Mining methods which are aimed at providing better functionalities than those of signature-based approaches. Even though the alternative techniques were effective in providing better functionalities, majority of these techniques were left unused in real-time applications of Network Intrusion Detection. Despite of all these efforts the Signature-based Intrusion Detection approaches still remain the most dominantly used techniques for Network Intrusion Detection.

Abstract: It is impossible to imagine our technology-based society without engineering. Engineers create the complex objects and systems we use every day. Engineers must be able to view things in new and imaginative ways, and to generate or recognize new ideas. To solve engineering problems today, engineers should use established science and methods as well as innovative, creative approaches. To solve technical problems, engineering graduates must clearly understand the problem and its potential impacts. They must have the ability to think “outside the box” and to solve problems in creative ways. This paper discusses the importance of teaching and encouraging creativity in engineering education as well as methods of developing programs to accomplish this.

While secondary data obtained from agencies related turtle conservation. Measured data are physical environmental parameters (temperature, salinity,) and chemical environmental parameters (pH, Dissolved Oxygen (DO), Biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), Nitrate (NO2), Nitrite (NO3), Phosphate (PO4), Ammonia (NH3), and Total Organic Matter (TOM). The research data indicated that the aquatic qualities in Turtle conservation area are less worthy for Turtle conservation.

Abstract: In order for the organizations to be successful, necessarily should base their development in the process of permanent plan, high fully reflexive and consistent, otherwise their actions would not be finished, and will not provide an orientation guide in order to insure the accomplishment of their functions and the consolidation of them. The Universities are not an exception of this reality, on the other side, should be institutions that show the example of a strategic thinking. Considering the previously mentioned reality, this document has as a main objective; analyze the essential variables of the Strategic Institutional Plan of the UANL through a structural analyzes of collective reflection of their prime Institutional Plans. For their evaluation it is employed the qualitative method of prospective analysis trough the matrix system of cross impact-multiplication applied in a classification MIC MAC. Centrally located in the main results spotlight the importance of articulate the projects and activities of the diverse academic and administrative units of the University, with the coherent development in social promotion, equality and sustainable projects, that resorts the transversal universities functions, that will provide an integral formation of social responsible citizens and highly competent in the business world.

Abstract: As it is well known in numerical analysis, most of the numerical schemes have undesirable oscillations, especially near the domain's border, or near the physical phenomena (empty region, collapse, boundary layer, among others)(mathematically invisible) eg: the heat equation with a bad sign, Burgers equation(the solution loses its regularity).\\ In the case where the differential problem solution presents a singularity (shock, blow-up which cannot be numerically detected easily), the classical scheme cannot generally operate correctly and in the best case we are confronted with a very difficult algorithm, especially in several dimensions. \\ Our objective here is to construct a less complicated scheme compared to the classical methods by keeping their advantages and obtained the admissible solution in the most difficult situations without complications obtained from the selected meshing.\\ In this paper, we present a new method called ziti's $\delta$- scheme which is able to resist to such oscillation near the singularity and enables us to detect a lot of physical phenomena. In particular, with our method, we construct a multidimensional numerical integration and compare its results with other methods. \\ We depict the ziti's $\delta$- scheme for the multidimensional partial differential equations and systems on any meshing with simple numbering. We apply our method to some models and compare its results with the exact one and other classical numerical methods.\\ We can conclude that our results are very striking. The ziti's $\delta$- method that we obtained is faster and more efficient and robust.\\

Abstract: Background: Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are identified as an essential component that provide valuable contribution to the overall economy, specifically in emerging countries like Malaysia. Purpose: The study aims at examining WCM practices of SMEs, as well as to test the relationship between WCM and financial capabilities of SMEs. Methodology: the study focuses on 100 valid samples of SMEs, covering the period of 2009-2014; multiple regressions was employed in order to test the hypotheses. Results: Results indicated that low cash conversion cycle (CCC) increases the financial capabilities of SME. The correlations results for Z-Score indicated a negative significant coefficient with CCC (-0.205) and TDTA (-0.486) both at 1% significant level. Working capital components could statistically significantly predict SME’s financial capability as represent by the Z-Score, F= 116.390, p< .01. Conclusion: A moderate relationship between working capital management and financial capabilities of selected SME firms in Malaysia is a great concern. The scope can be further extended by conducting research that could include management components such as marketable securities, cash flow and others.
