The Dominance of the Center and the Control of the Memory: Systematic Reading of the Mu\u27allaqat of Imru\u27 al-Qais and Amr Ibn Kulthum
Get PDFThe study attempts to find out the systematic questions in the mu\u27allaqat of Imru’ al-Qais and Amr ibn Kulthum, relying on a number of theories, perhaps the most important of which are cultural, post-colonial, and hegemonic studies, whether political or masculine. The study follows the approach of cultural and systematic theory that focuses on the text’s systemic boundaries rather than the linguistic and literary boundaries. The study concludes that Imru\u27 al-Qais and Amr can re-read their poetry in terms of their being political, no matter how different their poetic purposes may be, based on their influence on their cultural and political environment, it concludes by presenting a model or example of the dominant politician practicing the right to speech and memory

A Value-Based HBIM Framework for Adaptive Reuse of Heritage Buildings: A Case Study of Bayt Yakan
Get PDFThis paper presents a value-based Heritage Building Information Modeling (HBIM) framework for assessing the adaptive reuse of heritage buildings. The framework integrates key heritage values criteria -authenticity, integrity, significance, and adaptability- into HBIM, allowing for structured decision-making that balances heritage preservation with contemporary operation. Using Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA), different adaptive reuse scenarios are evaluated in HBIM Environment to ensure that interventions respect the building\u27s authenticity, integrity, and significance while meeting sustainable operational needs. The case study focuses on Bayt Yakan, a 17th-century heritage building in Cairo, where three adaptive reuse scenarios—continued use as a library, conversion into a hotel room, or into an exhibition hall—are evaluated. The results demonstrate the effectiveness of the framework in providing data-driven insights for heritage conservation and adaptive reuse. This approach offers a valuable tool for heritage professionals, ensuring that reuse strategies honor both the architectural integrity and cultural significance of heritage sites
Digital Leadership among Arab School Principals within the Green Line from the Perspectives of Principals and Teachers
Get PDFThe aim of this study was to identify the degree of digital leadership employed among Arab school principals within the Green Line from the perspectives of both principals and teachers, as well as to determine the impact of variables such as gender, job title, educational qualification, years of experience, and type of school on that degree. A descriptive survey approach was utilized, and a questionnaire was developed as a tool to collect the necessary data to achieve the study\u27s objectives. The study sample consisted of 572 principals and teachers, selected using a convenience sampling method. The results of the study indicated that the degree of digital leadership employed among Arab school principals within the Green Line, from the perspectives of both principals and teachers, was moderate. Additionally, the results revealed significant statistical differences at (α=0.05) in the sample\u27s estimates of the degree of employment of digital leadership by Arab school principals due to the job title variable in favor of school principals, educational qualification in favor of those with graduate degrees, and the type of school variable in favor of private schools. No significant statistical differences were found due to gender or years of experience. In light of these results, the researchers concluded a set of recommendations, the most important of which are: inviting decision-makers to develop policies and regulations related to the employment of digital technology, establishing a system for training programs and evaluating employees to effectively apply modern technology in school leadership, and focusing on the professional development needs of school leaders in light of the dimensions of digital leadership
Developing the Reading Skill and Intercultural Communicative Competence Using Multicultural Narratives at Tertiary Level in Palestine
Get PDFObjectives: The present study aimed to investigate the impact of teaching multicultural narratives using intensive reading skills on promoting the intercultural communicative competence (ICC) and improving reading skill achievement at the tertiary level in Palestine. Methodology: To achieve this purpose, the researcher randomly selected 160 university freshmen students learning English as an obligatory course at tertiary level in Palestine during the second semester of the academic skills evenly into two groups: an experimental group and a control group. Both groups were taught the same multicultural narratives using the intensive reading skills by the researcher himself. They were assessed using the same quantitative tools. However, the experimental group was taught the narratives using ICC teaching, which incorporated the nine ICC concepts and themes of the three ICC stages, i.e. the ethnocentric (denial, defense, minimization), ethnorelative (acceptance, adaptation, integration), and global competence (substantial knowledge, perpetual understanding, and intercultural communication). In contrast, the control group was taught the same narratives using the traditional way of teaching reading without including any ICC teaching. To measure the development of the ICC and the achievement of the reading skill, the Intercultural Sensitivity Index (ISI), and the IELTS Academic Reading Test were used respectively before and after the experiment. Findings: The findings showed that both ICC and reading achievement have significantly improved. Recommendations: Some implications have been suggested at school, university, and the Ministry of Education levels, and some future researches were recommended, too
