Methological Approaches of Seminal Importance for Synergetic Education and Social and Solidarity Economy in Promoting Creativity and Innovation

This paper examines whether and in what ways the education system and the pedagogical culture particularly prevailing in Higher Education could be enriched with an alternative pedagogical model. A model that is differentiated from the prevalent pedagogical concepts is inspired by values and principles that form the core of a synergetic education and a social and solidarity economy. From an epistemological perspective, ＂ssociationnisme＂ that social and solidarity economy promotes is at stake and education must play an important role. The paper also examines the attitude of students towards such a perspective, mainly through exploring the current options as well as its potential expansion thereof in a way that promotes creativity and innovation. This study draws on previous research by P. Vathi （2014） on the topic of ＂A multidimensional-interdisciplinary approach and evaluation of University students＇ creativity, with emphasis on the utilization of statistical analyses＂ in order to assess the influence of education on students＇ creativity

European Explorers＇ Engagements with Sexuality in Indigenous Cultures： The Forsters＇ Interpretations of Tahitian Sexual Practices

While current analyses of European interpretations of non-western cultures are guided by a modern concept of sexuality, this article argues for a more encompassing, historical awareness by drawing historical constructs of sexuality into the analysis. To illustrate the point, it will analyze the accounts of indigenous sexual practices written by the botanist Johann Reinhold Forster and his son Georg, in the wake of Cook＇s voyages. These accounts differ starkly, even though the authors participated in the same expedition. As the post-structural textual analysis of the text makes apparent, each author has a specific concept of sexuality in mind. These perceptions affirm the change taking place in 18th-century European culture, as analyzed by Foucault. Moreover, the textual analysis strongly suggests that their respective views of sexuality impact upon their interpretations of Tahitian culture at large. As a consequence, the article furthers insight into ＂Western＂ ways of interpreting ＂non-western＂ cultures.

The Essence and Structure of Information Competency of an Interpreter in the System of Continuing Education

This paper introduces the author＇s view on the problem of defining the essence and structure of the information competency of an interpreter.

Introducing CFD and Wind Tunnel Testing in an Undergraduate Fluid Mechanics Course

CFD （computational fluid dynamics） is following the trend of CAD and FEA （finite element analysis） to undergraduate education especially with recent advances in commercial codes. It will soon take its place as an expected skill for new engineering graduates. CFD was added as a component to an experiment in a junior level fluid mechanics course. The objectives were to introduce CFD, as an analysis tool, to the students and to support the theoretical concepts of the course. The students were asked to complete an experimental two-dimensional study for a wing in a wind tunnel, to use CFD to simulate the flow, and to predict the aerodynamic lift using CFD as well as the experimentally obtained pressure distribution. In addition, they had to compare their results to published data for the studied wing. Details of the course, the wind tunnel test and the CFD simulations are presented. Samples from the students＇ work are used in the discussion. The lab activities were successfully completed by the students and the learning objectives were well addressed. One of the valuable outcomes from this lab was the opportunity for the students to integrate multiple fluid mechanics analysis tools and learn about the limits for each tool. CFD also enhanced the learning in the lab activities and increased students＇ interest in the subject.

Tornudd＇s and Siukonen＇s Methodical Starting Points of Music Pedagogy in the Field of Educational Trends

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of educational trends on A. T6rnudd＇s （1913） and V. Siukonen＇s （1929） methods of music education （teaching and singing） in Finland from 1863 to the late 1930s. In the examination of methods the analysis focuses on the time when T6rnudd and Siukonen were influential. A model of analysis was created in the study, with the help of which common and divergent elements in the educational trends and methods of music education were sought. According to the study, TOmudd＇s pattern singing method represented the Old School starting points, but he was a supporter of the work school, for instance. Siukonen＇s method was based on the New School principle in which the child-centered education philosophy and the developmental-psychological growth and development were taken into account in developing the method. Siukonen raised singing by ear as a central feature, from which children made observations. Methodical transition period took place at the turn of the 1920s and 1930s. However, in teaching singing, the effects of the new trends were seen as early as from the late 1910s onwards.

Literature and the Teaching of Stylistics： An Investigation Into the Pragmatics of Community Formation in the Educational Context of Namibia

The author＇s paper is an attempt to investigate the success of the pedagogy of stylistics and pedagogical stylistics in the Namibian context. As an applied linguistics course, stylistics is eminently suitable for study and analysis of literature, because it clearly explicates literary effects through linguistic analysis. Many scholars have illustrated the use of stylistics analysis for the purposes of studying literature and teaching it, which is, pedagogical stylistics. However, this paper combines both the study of Stylistics as a discipline, which is the pedagogy of Stylistics, and the use of stylistics for teaching literature in general and poetry in particular. Namibia adopted English as its official language 22 years ago. Since then, both teachers and students have been struggling with the analysis of poetry. This study is an empirical one using qualitative methods in the author＇s research to determine the impact of the study of Stylistics on the understanding and teaching of literature in Namibia. The author uses traditional British poetry from the 16th century up to the 20th century alongside postcolonial poetry to assess the importance of culture in understanding poetry and examine the advantage of using stylistics to teach the poems that the author selects.

The Relationship Between Mathematics Excellency and Efficiency of Accounting Students

Many organizations, educational institutes, and universities wish to identify efficient and high caliber applicants who could excel over the accounting discipline, while scholarships and admissions are still not offered. However, it is believed that undergraduate accounting students with majors in mathematics from pre-university institutes perform much better than those with arts or social sciences backgrounds. Therefore, this paper~ takes the mathematics perception level as well as pre-university＇s cumulative grade point averages （CGPAs） as the main indicators of efficiency and better performance of undergraduate accounting students. In order to test the hypotheses, a multiple regression analysis has been used. By choosing all undergraduate accounting candidates, who had been admitted for academic calendars of 2009-2010 in four different universities （one public, two semi-publics, and one private university） and testing their mathematics excellency, as well as extracting their CGPAs, the authors find that students＇ mathematical talents are high, and to a lower extent, the CGPAs will positively influence the performance in accounting courses.

Evaluation of Self Management Behavior of Chronic Kidney Disease Patients

CKD （chronic kidney disease） is a progressive disease. If it is left untreated, it can eventually result in end stage renal failure and necessitate dialysis or kidney transplantation. There is no cure for CKD; instead a great deal of self management over time is essential. The purpose is to evaluate self management behaviour of patients at different stages of CKD. A total of 300 CKD patients were recruited in this cross sectional study from March to July 2015 at nephrology clinic of a tertiary care setting using convenience sampling. Self management behaviour score was determined using in Partners in Health scale and was then compared at different stages of CKD. Demographic and clinical factors contributing to self management behaviour were determined. Results： There was a significant difference in age （p 〈 0.001）, gender （p 〈 0.001）, education level （p 〈 0.001）, marital status （p 〈 0.001）, duration of illness （p 〈 0.001） and number of co-morbidities （p 〈 0.001） among CKD stages. A significant difference in self management behaviour mean score was found among CKD stages （p 〈 0.001）. Post hoc analysis showed self management behaviour mean score for Stage Ⅰ （mean ± SD： 77.81 ± 9.41） was significantly higher than Stage Ⅳ （mean ± SD： 70.53 ± 13.91） and Stage Ⅴ （mean ± SD： 69.54 ± 12.31）. Self management behaviour mean score for Stage Ⅱ （mean ± SD： 78.46 ± 10.01） was significantly higher than Stage Ⅳ and Stage Ⅴ. Multiple linear regression revealed education level （p 〈 0.001） and number of co-morbidities （p = 0.01） as significant predictors of self management behaviour. It can be concluded that special attention should be focused on patients at late stage of CKD, especially those with diabetic nephropathy; low education level and multiple co-morbidities to improve self management behaviour.

Rankings of Universities and Power in the Digital Age

This paper will discuss one topic in the current debate on higher education： How power is exercised between universities？ How do colleges determine what the best college is？ What are the differences in the excersise of power in the digital age？ The authors analyze one of the mechanisms of relationship and contact between different universities： the rankings. They will discuss the practices that allow certain values and organizations they are becoming central nodes between universities and the influences of the information and communication technologies in the measurement mechanisms. The authors seek to show the rankings serve as mechanisms to exercise power among universities. These measurements become a tool and justification in competition between universities for resources such as funding, prestige, and student demand. The analysis is based on the University of Mexico, the authors use the ranking of the best universities in Latin America and the best universities in Mexico.

Participation of Women in the Economic Activity in Cameroon

The aim of this paper is to put forward the explanatory factors of the participation of women in the economic activity in the Cameroonian context characterized by an important and persistent gender gap in terms of participation in the economic activity （more men than women）. The authors carried out, on the basis of data resulting from the DHS-MICS 2011, an analysis using the binomial logistic model. It comes out from this analysis that the significant explanatory variables are the age （which plays at the same time the role of variable of control）, the religion, the ethnic group, the size of the household, the relationship with the head of household, the educational level （of the woman and the husband/partner）, the occupational status of the husband/partner, the household＇s standard of living, and the marital status. According to the results obtained, it would be important to set up policies intended to reinforce the professionalization of the young woman and to fight against the sexist sociocultural norms and practices advocating the ＂sexual division＂ of labor.
