Comparison of Blood Pressure Patterns of Teaching and Non-Teaching Staff of a Nigerian University

Objective: Differences in jobs descriptions and responsibilities may contribute to varying degree of exposure to diseases including high blood pressure. There is dearth of studies comparing blood pressure patterns and anthropometric parameters between teaching and non-teaching staff of university. Therefore, this study was designed to assess and compare the blood pressure and the anthropometric parameters of both teaching and non-teaching staff of a Nigerian university. Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted to assess blood pressure pattern and anthropometric parameters among 324 apparently healthy teaching (n = 120) and non-teaching (n = 202) staff of Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, Nigeria. Anthropometric parameters including height, weight and hip and waist circumferences were measured. Blood pressure was measured thrice during office hours (9.00 - 11.00 hours) using standard procedures and hypertension was defined as ≥140 ≥90 mmHg. Descriptive and inferential statistics were used to analyze the data at p < 0.05 alpha level. Results: The mean of ages of teaching and non-teaching staff were 46.8 ± 9.8 and 45.6 ± 10.9 years. The prevalence of high blood pressure was 34.9% with a distribution of teaching to non-teaching rate of 20.1% and 14.8% respectively. There were significant correlations between blood pressure and each of weight, body mass index and waist circumference in both groups (p < 0.05). Conclusion: Prevalence of high blood pressure was higher among teaching than non-teaching staff and significant correlations were found between blood pressure and some anthropometric parameters. Public health including regular physical activity enlightenment programmes to reduce blood pressure is recommended.

Thinking the Application of Integrating Literature into Non-English Major Undergraduates English Teaching

Literature often reflects a particular cultural perspective, which can provide an authentic context and situation to language teaching. A foreign culture given through literature may increase the students' understanding of that culture and spur their own imagination. Therefore, it is very significant for English teachers to improve their self-cultivation of literature and try to apply literature, this intellectually stimulating vehicle, to illustrate language use and to introduce culture. This essay will first examine the significance of literature, correct some misconceptions, and then put forwards some suggestions on the selection and application of literary texts.

Reflection on College English Vocabulary Teaching from Non-linguistic Context Perspective

Vocabulary understanding is very important in English study; however, there exist some problems in the present college English vocabulary teaching, so it is necessary to propose some suggestions for it from the non-linguistic context perspectives to improve the students'vocabulary capacity. Based on the three non-linguistic contexts (situational context, cultural context and cognitive context), the passage suggests teachers pay much attention to the non-linguistic context while teaching.

Native Speaker and L2 User in Language Teaching

The target of much language teaching and learning is to make students approximate to native speakers.The only rightful speak ers of a language are its native speakers.Contrary to these contemporary views,however,this paper argues that the obligation of the lan guage teacher is to help students to use L2 effectively not to simply imitate native speaker.A successful L2 user who comes from the group of L2 learners can be a model for students.Therefore,non-native teachers with a high degree of language proficiency and good teaching skills can be ideal and qualified language teachers.

An Integrated Statistical Model to Measure Academic Teaching Quality

The aim of this paper is to present a new proposal for the classification of Academic institutions in terms of quality of teaching. Our methodological proposal borrows concepts from operational risk, such as scorecard models, employed to assess University performances, on the basis of both the perceived and the actual quality. We propose to summarize opinion data using new non parametric indexes able to exploit efficiently the ordinal nature of the analysed variables and to integrate different sources of data. In particular we show how web survey methods can improve the quality and robustness of collected data, especially when integrated with students career data. Empirical evidence is given on the basis of real data from the University of Pavia.

Strategies for Improving the Teaching Quality in Middle Schools Under the Double Reduction Policy

The meaning of the term“reduction”in Double Reduction Policy implores teachers to reflect on their teaching process and improve teaching efficiency.Not only should the quantity be reduced,but so should the behavior.Having a comprehensive understanding of the students’learning process is actually a form of science.Therefore,we need to study and enhance its development[1].In order to reduce the learning burden and increase the efficiency of classroom teaching,we must clearly identify the inefficient and ineffective behaviors in classroom teaching,so as to avoid the following situations:a lack of deep thinking,a lack of ability in lesson preparation,fragmentation of questions and answers,a lack of questions that highlight the key points,anticlimax teaching process,and the habit of running over time in class[2,3].On this basis,this paper elaborates the current education state and clarifies the basic requirements of effective classroom teaching.Meanwhile,to reduce students’workload and increase the efficiency in carrying out assignments,much attention should be paid to optimizing assignment design and refining homework review and feedback.The purpose is to assign homework with an appropriate amount(achievable),precision(targeted),and suitability(personalized).Putting an end to the repetitious and unified training is not enough to improve the effect.

A Survey Research on Agricultural College Undergraduates' Attitudes towards In-class and Out-of-class Activities Based on the Mixed Teaching Model

In order to study the effects of in-class and out-of-class activities of college English based on the mixed teaching model on the fostering of students' English learning and application ability,the attitudes of 215 freshmen of Agricultural College,Yanbian University towards inclass and out-of-class activities and their participation and completion of tasks were investigated by a questionnaire. The results show that a series of in-class and out-of-class activities could help improve the students' language competence as well as non-language competence such as learning strategies,emotional attitudes,and cultural awareness. The implementation and effect of school online courses were inferior to classroom teaching,but they provide reference and experience for future mixed teaching.

Overview of Native-speaker English Teacher Versus Non-native-speaker English Teacher

As much more non-native-speaker English teachers teach alongside native-speaker English teachers, either in China or any other non-English-speaking country, research on the differences between native-speaker English teacher and non-native-speaker English teacher is necessary. This paper offers an overview of such difference between the two groups of English teachers in terms of their strengths and weaknesses, teaching styles and approaches. The conclusion suggests that cooperation and communication be emphsised and that the two groups of teachers communicate more and exchange their ideas on how to teach the same group of students more effectively.

非最小相位工业过程自校正控制教学实验平台

工业过程中的非最小相位被控对象因其具有反向特性而会给控制器设计带来困难,在自动化教学中对非最小相位概念的描述通常偏重于零点位置、零动态等理论概念,因缺乏直观性而使得学生不易理解透彻。结合自适应控制课程教学,基于工业过程中典型的空气加热混合过程,通过合理构造实验条件,构建了具有非最小相位特性的物理被控对象装置,在此基础上,研发了自校正控制教学实验平台,可以开展非最小相位工业对象的辨识、控制和自校正控制的教学实验,有助于加深自动化专业学生对非最小相位概念的理解,从而改善教学效果。
