World English: Research and Practice
No full text"World-renowned TESOL Expert Essays" gathers the research essence of many senior experts in the field of teacher education development from the internationally renowned English education and academic institution-TESOL International Association (TESOL International Association). Each series of books is dedicated to a research topic in the development of teacher education. From a broad international perspective, it conducts in-depth discussions on hot topics in the fields of teaching, scientific research and professional development of English teachers. It has both rich theoretical knowledge and freshness. The classroom examples of this article aim to provide practical and effective theoretical guidance and practical reference for the education and development of language teachers at home and abroad.
Andy Kirkpatrick is a professor in the Department of Languages and Linguistics at Griffith University in Australia. His main research directions are teaching English as a foreign language, applied linguistics and rhetoric. As an outstanding scholar in the field of world English research, the author has been committed to exploring the key issues in the theory and practice of this field in his successful career for more than 40 years. The research and practice of World English and English as a global lingua franca have emerged in Asia. And communication has had a huge impact. This book brings together a series of impressive representative articles by the author. I believe readers will be inspired by them to explore and study important issues in the world of English.No Full Tex

Pilot and feasibility studies: what's the point?
No full textBackground: the appropriateness of research design and methodology of clinical trials is paramount if we are to succeed in reducing the amount of waste in research. Pilot and feasibility studies serve an important role in determining the most appropriate design and whether the trial will succeed to completion.Aims and objectives: the study will assess the role of pilot and feasibility studies in the design of clinical trials funded by the Health Technology Assessment (HTA) programme.Method: there are three phases to the study: 1. Literature review, 2. Review of the ongoing HTA trial portfolio and, 3. Review of the HTA portfolio of published trials to determine the added value of the inclusion of a pilot or feasibility study. A list of HTA trials will be retrieved from three cohorts: completed standalone pilot or feasibility studies; completed and ongoing clinical trials which include an internal pilot or feasibility study; and successful applications in pre-contracting status in the HTA programme.Results: the results of the study will still be in development. The number of included trials and proposed checklist/classification system will be presented to determine how pilot and feasibility studies are used to inform the trial design and whether those that include a pilot or feasibility study recruit patients on time and within target.Conclusions: the findings from this study will be important in the context of the adding value in research agenda. This is partly due to the lack of existing evidence on the role of pilot and feasibility studies

Leading Issues in Competition, Regulation and Development
No full textThe promotion of liberalised and deregulated markets by bilateral and multilateral aid donors, and by global institutions such as the WTO, has led to significant attention being paid to competition and regulatory reforms in developing economies. The process of reform involves the transfer and diffusion of market models derived from practice and theory in developed countries. However, in developing countries, regulation needs to do more than simply promote competitiveness and consumer interests: it also needs to ensure that the market nurtures development. By rigorously examining the numerous impacts of regulation, this book will help to fill a significant gap in the literature on economic and social development. © Paul Cook, Colin Kirkpatrick, Martin Minogue, David Parker 2004.

Role of feasibility and pilot studies in randomised controlled trials: a cross-sectional study
No full textObjectives To assess the value of pilot and feasibility studies to randomised controlled trials (RCTs) funded by the National Institute for Health Research (NIHR) Health Technology Assessment (HTA) programme. To explore the methodological components of pilot/feasibility studies and how they inform full RCTs.Study design Cross-sectional study.Setting Both groups included NIHR HTA programme funded studies in the period 1 January 2010–31 December 2014 (decision date). Group 1: stand-alone pilot/feasibility studies published in the HTA Journal or accepted for publication. Group 2: all funded RCT applications funded by the HTA programme, including reference to an internal and/or external pilot/feasibility study. The methodological components were assessed using an adapted framework from a previous study.Main outcome measures The proportion of stand-alone pilot and feasibility studies which recommended proceeding to full trial and what study elements were assessed. The proportion of ‘HTA funded’ trials which used internal and external pilot and feasibility studies to inform the design of the trial.Results Group 1 identified 15 stand-alone pilot/feasibility studies. Study elements most commonly assessed were testing recruitment (100% in both groups), feasibility (83%, 100%) and suggestions for further study/investigation (83%, 100%). Group 2 identified 161 ‘HTA funded’ applications: 59 cited an external pilot/feasibility study where testing recruitment (50%, 73%) and feasibility (42%, 73%) were the most commonly reported study elements: 92 reported an internal pilot/feasibility study where testing recruitment (93%, 100%) and feasibility (44%, 92%) were the most common study elements reported.Conclusions ‘HTA funded’ research which includes pilot and feasibility studies assesses a variety of study elements. Pilot and feasibility studies serve an important role when determining the most appropriate trial design. However, how they are reported and in what context requires caution when interpreting the findings and delivering a definitive trial
