    Regional development of the Aswan region of Egypt with special reference to the Aswan High Dam

    No full text
    This study is concerned with the problems of regional development. In modern times, the different institutions within the nation-state have multiplied in number and increased in size and complexity so that it is becoming more and more difficult for these institutions, functioning centrally, to achieve economic and social progress and to create efficient political and administrative systems. Local diversities and interests as well as national goals need to be observed and coordinated in order to achieve the required progress. Accordingly many countries are now tending to develop regional systems to suit their particular conditions, the aim being to lessen the risk of the central institutions' monopolizing political, economic and social powers, and at the same time to keep individual regions integrated into a single coherent unit for the good of the nation as a whole and for the good of the regions themselves. The present work comprises two parts. Part One deals with definitions and some general problems of regional development. For the purpose of exemplifying these generalisations, as well as glancing at the background of Aswan Region, we shall refer at this stage to some cases from Egypt. Part Two deals with regional development in the Aswan Region of Egypt. This Region may provide a useful example of economic and social development related to planned growth. The Aswan High Dam and the intensive development programmes in the Region play an important role in the changes that are taking place both in that Region and in the rest of Egypt. Part Two will also examine the background of Aswan Region, describing the High Dam and evaluating its consequences, then evaluating the regional development of Aswan Region and considering how far the concept of regional planning is applicable to the activities taking place there. The study, it is emphasized, is intended to be primarily a descriptive and analytical one, and no attempt is made to construct mathematical regional and interregional models

    Dedy Aswan. 2016. Pengaruh Pemanfaatan Media E-learning Quipper School Terhadap Hasil Belajar Pada Mata Pelajaran Matematika Siswa Kelas X SMA Negeri 1 Majene . Dibimbing oleh Dr. Arnidah, S.Pd, M.Si dan Dr. Nurhikmah H, S.Pd, M.Si. Program Studi Teknologi Pendidikan Fakultas Ilmu Pendidikan Universitas Negeri Makassar, 2016. Masalah dalam penelitian ini adalah Pembelajaran kurang interaktif dan kurang optimal dalam menggunakan media pembelajaran. Sehingga membuat siswa menjadi bosan dalam proses pembelajaran. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh penggunaan e-learning Quipper School terhadap hasil belajar siswa pada mata mata pelajaran Matematika. Jenis penelitian yang digunakan adalah penelitian eksperimen dengan desain Posttest Only Control Desing. Populasi dalam penelitian ini adalah kelas X SMA Negeri 1 Majene dan kemudian ditarik sampel penelitian kelas Kontrol dan Kelas Eksperiemen sebanyak 30 dan 29 siswa. Tehnik pengumpulan data dalam penelitian ini dilakukan dengan menggunakan dokumentasi dan tes. Data yang diperoleh kemudian diolah dan dianalisis dengan mengunakan Uji t. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan ada pengaruh yang signifikan pemanfaatan e-learning Quipper School terhadap hasil belajar siswa pada mata pelajaran matematika siswa kelas X SMA Negeri 1 Majene. Hasil Belajar kelas kontrol lebih tinggi dibandingkan dengan hasil kelas kontrol. Dengan demikian Media pembelajaran e-learning Quipper School sangat penting dalam pembelajaran, untuk itu dalam mengajar harus selalu menggunakan media pembelajaran yang tepat sesuai dengan materi pelajaran

    THE VALUE OF THE HIGH ASWAN DAM TO THE EGYPTIAN ECONOMY

    No full text
    The High Aswan Dam converted a variable and uncertain flow of river water into a predictable and controllable flow. We use a computable general equilibrium model of the Egyptian economy to estimate the economic impact of the High Aswan Dam. We compare the 1997 economy as it was to the 1997 economy as it would have been for 72 historical, pre-dam water flows. The steady water flow increased transport productivity, while the seasonal shift in water supply allowed for a shift towards more valuable summer crops. These static effects are worth LE 4.9 billion. Investments in transport and agriculture increased as a consequence. Assuming that Egypt is a small open economy, this is worth another LE 1.1 billion. The risk premium on the reduced variability is estimated to be LE 1.1 billion for a modest risk aversion, and perhaps LE 4.4 billion for a high risk aversion. The total gain of LE 7.1 billion equals 2.7% of GDP.Egypt, High Aswan Dam, computable general equilibrium model, risk premium, water supply

    Ethnic Variation of */tʕ/ in Aswan Arabic

    No full text
    This study aims to provide some acoustic documentation of two unusual and variable allophones in Aswan Arabic. Although many rural villages in southern Egypt enjoy ample linguistic documentation, many southern urban areas remain understudied. Arabic linguists have investigated religion as a factor influencing linguistic variation instead of ethnicity. This study investigates the role of ethnicity in the under-documented urban dialect of Aswan Arabic. The author conducted sociolinguistic interviews in Aswan from 2012 to 2015. He elected to measure VOT as a function of allophone, ethnicity, sex, and age in apparent time. The results reveal significant differences in VOT lead and lag for the two auditorily encoded allophones. The indigenous Nubians prefer a different pronunciation than their Ṣa‘īdī counterparts who trace their lineage to Arab roots. Women and men do not demonstrate distinct pronunciations. Age also does not appear to be affecting pronunciation choice. However, all three variables interact with each other

    HUTAN PASIR SUNYI: DEDY LUTAN’S PERSPECTIVE ON DAYAK

    No full text
    Hutan Pasir Sunyi is the last work of Dedy Lutan, which was performed at the Bogor Botanical Garden May 13, 2014. This work was inspired from one of the black orchid conservation forest area called “Kersik Luway”. Kersik means forest or sand and Luway means quiet or silent. The theme of this dance piece was about the forests destruction in East Kalimantan which now remain arid and horrifying silence, no wildlife, no birds singing, no orangutan’s squawking and even no hoarse cries of other animals. Dedy Lutan has been living as Dayak for dozen of years. In 1974, Dedy Lutan entered the Dayak Kenyah village to learn traditional dances. He then forwarded to learn the traditional dance of the Modang tribes. In the interior of East Kalimantan, Dedy Lutan was not only learning to dance but also learning to live as the Dayak, as for the two chiefs have been giving him the honor as a foster child. His knowledge of anthropology enabled him to understand the ins and outs of Dayak traditional culture, including the arts. The entrance of Christian religion and the destruction of the forest were the entity of restlessness and confusion that has transformed the forests into deserts. The forest condition raised heart-wrenching funeral song. Hutan Pasir Sunyi represented Dedy Lutan’s fearfulness and confusion. To recall the conditions of the jungle, Hutan Pasir Sunyi was showen right under the giant Kenari Babi tree
