    Carrying capacity measurement in an ecotourism concept is very important to measure the capacity of space to receive the number of tourists and their activities in the area. The calculating methods of the carrying capacity concept have been implemented in several ecotourism areas based on several categories, such as; physical, real, effective, ecological and socio-cultural carrying capacity. In this case, research was carried out with the aim of studying the concept of carrying capacity applied in Karkheh National Park and National Parks in Indonesia. This can be studied to find a new concept that can be useful for carrying capacity calculations in Indonesia which are more complex and on target. Literature study is the method used in this research to examine information related to each National Park area. Thus, the results of the elaboration of the concept of carrying capacity between Karkheh National Park and National Parks in Indonesia show that socio-cultural carrying capacity needs to be applied to National Parks in Indonesia because of the same high density context

    This study compared the effectiveness of auditory and visual redirections in facilitating topic coherence for persons with Dementia of Alzheimer’s Type (DAT). Five persons with moderate stage DAT engaged in conversation with the first author. Three topics related to activities of daily living, recreational activities, food, and grooming, were broached. Each topic was presented three times to each participant: once as a baseline condition, once with auditory redirection to topic, and once with visual redirection to topic. Transcripts of the interactions were scored for overall coherence. Condition was a significant factor in that the DAT participants exhibited better topic maintenance under visual and auditory conditions as opposed to baseline. In general, the performance of the participants was not affected by the topic, except for significantly higher overall coherence ratings for the visually redirected interactions dealing with the topic of food

    Checklist for Assessing Graduate Student Competencies in Voice Disorders

    Low-incidence clinical disorders such as voice, nasal resonance, and fluency present challenging areas for graduate-level speech-language pathology training programs to help students acquire necessary knowledge and skills. A checklist of competencies for fluency disorders exists in the literature. The authors are presently collecting pretest/posttest data on the fluency disorders checklist over several cohorts of graduate students to determine student level of proficiency and confidence regarding these competencies. Preliminary data analysis suggests significant student perception of growth as a result of completing course requirements. These data have been useful to the second author, who teaches a course in fluency disorders and utilizes the checklist for purposes of course design and case-based project development to help students gain competence. The authors observed that a similar checklist of competencies for voice disorders would be useful for training programs as well as for other reasons described throughout this paper. Consequently, the authors compiled a checklist for assessing graduate student competencies for voice disorders. This checklist provides academic and clinical faculty with a comprehensive tool to guide the education of graduate clinicians and assist in the assurance of educational quality for speech-language pathologists

    La recherche théorique en sciences humaines : réflexions sur la validité d’énoncés théoriques en éducation

    La recherche théorique en éducation, et plus largement en sciences humaines, ne répond pas aux mêmes critères de scientificité ou d'admissibilité que la recherche empirique. À travers l'examen de la critériologie scientifique issue des sciences exactes et de celle propre aux sciences humaines, d'une part, ainsi que l'analyse de la spécificité de la recherche théorique, d'autre part, une série de critères est proposée afin de juger de la recevabilité et de la « validité » d'énoncés théoriques.Theoretical research in education, and more specifically in the social sciences, does not answer to the same scientific and admissibility criteria as does empirical research. From an examination, on the one hand, of scientific criteria used in the pure sciences and those in the social sciences, and on the other hand, the specificity of theoretical research, the author proposes a series of criteria to judge the receivability and validity of theoretical propositions.La investigacion teorica en educacion, y mas generalmente en humanidades, no responde a los mismos criterios cientificos o de admisibilidad de la investigacion empirica. A través del examen de la criteriologia de las ciencias exactas y de aquella propia a las humanidades, por una parte, y del analisis de la especificidad de la investigacion teorica por otra, se propone aqui una série de criterios para juzgar la aceptabilidad y la validez de enunciados teoricos.Die theoretische Forschung in der Erziehungswissenschaft und anderen Geisteswissenschaften folgt nicht denselben Kriterien der Wissenschaftlichkeit oder Akzeptabilitàt wie die empirische Forschung. Zunàchst werden die aus den Naturwissenschaften abgelei-teten Kriterien und die nur in den Geisteswissenschaften geltenden Kriterien untersucht, und die Spezifitât der theoretischen Forschung wird analysiert. Dann wird eine Liste von Kriterien aufgestellt, die dazu dienen sollen, die Akzeptabilitàt und "Validitât" theoretischer Darlegungen zu prufen

Dating Matters®: Strategies to Promote Healthy Teen Relationships (Dating Matters) is a comprehensive teen dating violence (TDV) prevention model designed by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and evaluated using a longitudinal stratified cluster-randomized controlled trial to determine effectiveness for preventing TDV and promoting healthy relationship behaviors among middle school students. In this study, we examine the prevention effects on secondary outcomes, including victimization and perpetration of physical violence, bullying, and cyberbullying. This study examined the effectiveness of Dating Matters compared to a standard-of-care TDV prevention program in 46 middle schools in four high-risk urban communities across the USA. The analytic sample (N = 3301; 53% female; 50% Black, non-Hispanic; and 31% Hispanic) consisted of 6th–8th grade students who had an opportunity for exposure to Dating Matters in all three grades or the standard-of-care in 8th grade only. Results demonstrated that both male and female students attending schools implementing Dating Matters reported 11% less bullying perpetration and 11% less physical violence perpetration than students in comparison schools. Female Dating Matters students reported 9% less cyberbullying victimization and 10% less cyberbullying perpetration relative to the standard-of-care. When compared to an existing evidence-based intervention for TDV, Dating Matters demonstrated protective effects on physical violence, bullying, and cyberbullying for most groups of students. The Dating Matters comprehensive prevention model holds promise for reducing multiple forms of violence among middle school-aged youth. ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT0167254

    First-generation student transition to university: an exploratory study into the first-year experience of students attending University Kebangsaan Malaysia

    No full text
    Transition is the movement, the passage of change from one role to another. This research offers an in-depth understanding of how the transition to university is experienced by first-generation students. To explore and understand the process of change underlying the transition process, this research uses qualitative research methods, semi-structured interviews and journal writing. Drawing from the data, a longitudinal case study followed the 16 students’ transition experiences for nine months, from the first semester to the end of the second semester of the first year. The research focused on three fundamental issues: higher education aspirations and decisions, the challenges encountered in the initial week of first year and the adjustment process, arguing that an understanding of these three aspects is necessary for a better understanding of the formation of learner identity. The research findings demonstrate that in the early weeks of university students experienced disjuncture between expectations held prior to commencing university and the reality they encounter. These phases are characterized as experiencing conflict with their new role and anxieties with their ability to manage the academic demands and expectations. Based on the evidence gathered, this is caused by inaccurate information they receive from third parties and during their prior educational experience. Early experience, whether positive or negative, is an important phase within this movement. Students become more active agents by being engaged and identifying difficulties and finding solutions. Student engagement both in class and out-of-class provides them with more accurate information on the knowledge and skills for their learning identity. Academic and non-academic support received both on and off campus comes from a range of sources including lecturers, peers and seniors, parents and family members, all of whom are identified as important contributors to the adjustment process of these first-generation students

The Htble Is not Infallible, but it Is worth all the other books fn the world for all that. Properly speaking. It Is not "a book." but a collection of books written In different places by different men at different times spread over s period of fully a thousand years. tt does not pt-rseeas and it does nnt claim to possess equal authority and value In all its parts. There are manyr*books outside tbe Rlble better than some book* In the Bible—the book of "Esther." for Instance, which doer not once mention the n.tme of Ood. nor refer to the will of God. nor conceive of obedience to Ood. but Is' tilled with human passion and revenge Yet the highest In the Rlble ta as far above the highest outside the Bible—the best In Shakespeare.
