Student Expectations in the New Millennium
No full textHigher education has experienced vast changes as a result of global political and economic developments. Cultural and social changes in the last decade have also added to the continuing evolution of higher education. These changes inevitably lead to changing expectations of students entering higher education. An adequate understanding of student expectations is crucial in ensuring a good fit between higher educational institutions and their students. This study attempts to carry out a baseline descriptive-quantitative research on student expectations in the higher education of Hong Kong. Four scales have been developed to measure students’ attitude toward: 1. job-oriented curriculum design, 2. user-friendly course delivery method, 3. opportunities for lifelong learning, and 4. student consumerism. Students’ priority of what makes a good university, their reasons for going to university, and their self-perception of ability to cope with university life are also explored. The Student Expectations Questionnaire (developed by the author) was used to gather data from 857 first-year undergrads from nine institutions of higher education in Hong Kong. Analyses include, among others, gender, age, major of study as well as institution comparisons
Development of a two-stage Lau-Wan Wankel pump/mixer
No full textA two-stage Wankel pump/mixer device has been designed and prototyped as part of a final-year undergraduate project. Based on the concept of the Wankel rotary engine, the device features a ‘two-apex’ rotor instead of the conventional ‘three-apex’ rotor. The novelty of the device addresses a unique axis of rotation for the rotor, driven by a crankshaft. In particular, in order for the motion of the rotor to exhibit a trajectory to consistency with an epitrochoid, the rotational motion is guided by the linear motion of a pin sliding along a groove within the rotor; this novel linear-to-rotational motion approach is known as the Lau-Wan design. The feasibility of the Lau-Wan design has been demonstrated in an earlier project. Here, the prototype comprises two Lau-Wan pump/mixers serially connected to form a two-stage system—the aim is to study the effectiveness of the mixing of fluids as the fluids flow from one stage to the other when both rotors are rotating ‘in phase’. A simple drive system was implemented by (a) coupling the two crankshafts using a timing belt and (b) coupling a low-speed motor to one of the two stages using a timing belt. Experiment was conducted to analyze the flow pattern of liquids in both stages using two types of liquid with different colors (and a slight variation in the viscosity). The flow pattern within the chamber of the first stage shows somewhat similar mixing patterns to those predicted by computational fluid models. We note that (1) the extent of drawing the fluid into the chamber, followed by compressing the fluid, depends on the rotor position, (2) laminar flow dominates the flow pattern during the suction and compressive actions of the rotor but microturbulence occurs in the regions adjacent to the rotor, (3) when the rotor rotates, the number of laminar layers somewhat increases with time. On the other hand, the second stage appears to be very efficient at drawing one of the two fluids; this may be attributed to the viscosity of the fluids. Within the limitations of the preliminary design, these characteristics suggest that the prototype exhibits a positive displacement pumping action, as well as mixing action
Chinese literary works translated into Baba Malay: a bibliographical study
Get PDFAnalyses 68 unique titles of Baba translated works published between 1889 and 1950. The titles are held in the libraries of the University of Malaya (UM), Science University Malaysia (USM), National University of Malaysia (UKM), the Dewan Bahasa dan Pustaka (DBP), National University of Singapore (NUS), National Library of Singapore (NLS) and the British Library (BL). The results reveal three periods of active publication of Baba translated works. A total of 18 works were translated before World War I, followed by 10 just after the war, 39 titles were published before the break of the World War II and 1 was identified in 1950. There were 103 persons involved in the 68 translated works, some of whom are responsible for more than one title. The most prominent translators were Chan Kim Boon, Wan Boon Seng, Seow Chin San and Lee Seng Poh. Some of the translators were also be editors, illustrators or editors. There were 31 publishers and 21 printing presses involved, all were located in Singapore. The most active publishers were Wan Boon Seng, Kim Seck Chy Press and Nanyang Romanised Malay Book Co. The translated works mainly cover historical classical Chinese stories, chivalrous stories, romances, folklore and legends. The titles were priced between 10 cents to 2 dollars in Straits currency. The University of Malaya Library held the largest number of unique title (62) out of which 15 were unique titles
The most important local and regional treatment techniques on hepatocellular carcinoma and their effect over a long term overall survival
No full textDuring the last years, many local and regional techniques have been introduced, helping,
together with surgery, to treat the hepatocellular carcinoma, and contributing to an
important improvement of disease free survival and overall survival of patients affected by
this disease. These techniques, suitable also for metastatic lesions, can be performed as
exclusive ones or following surgery, and help controlling tumor progression even when it is
over any possible surgical approach.
Local and regional therapies can be divided into two groups: in the first one we can consider
the techniques using heat to obtain their effect, in the second one we consider those using
chemotherapic drugs to obtain necrosis of the neoplastic tissue. Necrosis can be obtained
through the energy produced by radiofrequency probes, through the alcohol or acetic acid
injection or through the injection of embolyzing substances, also together with
chemotherapic drugs, into the hepatic artery. Last but not least, the injection of yttrium
labeled microspheres is available. These are injected into the hepatic artery and are able to
cytoreduce the tumor through a local irradiation
