Education (Amendment) Bill 2016

An Act to regulate the provision of accessible, equitable and qualitative education; provide for the establishment, regulation, organisation, governance, management and funding of educational institutions; provide for the establishment of education boards and for their functions; domesticate the Convention on the Rights of the Child in relation to education; repeal and replace the Education Act, 1966, and the African Education Act, 1951; and provide for matters connected with, or incidental to, the foregoing.

A non-empty subset W of a vector space V is a subspace of V if and only if it is closed under addition and scalar multiplication; that is, x 1 , x 2  W implies x 1 + x 2  W, and c  F, implies c x 1  W. Proof: Closure under scalar multiplication does the trick for us. For any x  W, we have 0 = 0 w  W and −x = (−1)x W, by the properties proved in the last section.É Theorem 1.2: Second subspace test: A non-empty subset W of the vector space V over F is a subspace if and only if, for any a, b  F and x, y  W, we have a x + b y  W. Proof: If W is a subspace, and a, b, x, y are given, then the closure laws show that a x + b y  W. Conversely, suppose that this condition holds. Then, choosing b = 0, we see that a x  W for all a  F and x  W; that is, W is closed under scalar multiplication. Similarly, choosing a = b = 1 shows that it is closed under additionÉ.

— the aim of this paper is to discuss the implementation and designing an automatic attendance registration system based Mobile Cloud Computing. A prototype for managing and control the registration of student attendance is developed using Phone Gap and jQuery mobile framework. However, the mobile app is designed to help students for checking their presence details, such as the number of missed classes, and the percentage of absence. Automate the process of registering students' attendance using Bluetooth technology will reduce the falsification of attendance which will make students to attend classes regularly. Moreover, using the Bluetooth address for the student attendance registration based on the cloud will be costless, that is because all students have their smartphones with built-in Bluetooth. Moreover, building and designing a desktop and cross-platform mobile application to control and follow the attendance process and print out the suitable reports. However, the benefits of using cloud computing and mobile technology in education institution will cost less than a traditional data center. The proposed registration system is less the time of recording the student attendance with high accuracy.

The Handbook edited by Jane Jackson has been released in contemporary and transnational times where interculturality-related challenges continue to emerge. Some of these challenges include "the rise in populism, elevated fear of difference, and heightened anti-immigration sentiments" (Jackson, 2020, p. 1) and may, to varying degrees, influence individuals' lives and well-being. To tackle these issues and foster greater equity, diversity, and inclusion in intercultural communication and research practices, the Handbook presents 34 chapters to introduce interdisciplinary studies of language and intercultural communication for senior undergraduate students, graduate students, and scholars from multidisciplinary backgrounds (e.g., language education, anthropology, sociology, business, tourism) who are interested in language and intercultural communication research. Each chapter not only critically assesses field-specific theories and research methods, but also discusses practical recommendations and future directions for conducting research. The Handbook categorizes chapters into five parts. Part I, 'Foundations of language and intercultural communication studies', contains five chapters mainly reviewing the (re)conceptualizations of language and intercultural communication research, with a particular focus on historical developments across the globe (Chapter 1), culture and power (Chapter 2), identity and communication (Chapter 3), intercultural competence and citizenship (Chapter 4), and criticality and reflexivity (Chapter 5). Part II, 'Core themes and issues', shares a similar theoretical orientation with 14 chapters structured under three themes to discuss the relationships between language and other constructs such as culture, identity, and global citizenship education. Diverging slightly in focus, Part III, 'Theory into practice: Towards intercultural (communicative) competence and citizenship', looks at some important practices such as intercultural education for second language teachers (Chapter 20), intercultural responsibility and glocal critical citizenship (Chapter 21), digitally mediated development of intercultural competence (Chapter 22), equity-and diversity-focused global citizenship education (Chapter 23), and intercultural learning assessment (Chapter 24). Exemplifying interdisciplinary approaches, Part IV, 'Language and intercultural communication in context', provides diverse contexts in which intercultural communication takes place, such as international education (Chapters 25, 26, & 27), business education (Chapter 28), workplace (Chapters 29 & 30), health services (Chapter 31), legal discourse (Chapter 32), and tourism (Chapter 33). Finally, Part V, 'New debates and future directions', includes a closing chapter (i.e., Chapter 34) synthesizing ongoing debates and highlighting the need to strengthen socially just research and practical efforts so as to promote interculturality across public and private domains. This edited volume possesses several strengths. An important aspect is that all chapters exhibit a high level of criticality and reflexivity. Chapter 5, for example, explains the interconnectedness between these two notions and increases the visibility

هدف: پژوهش حاضر به منظور بررسی ميزان اثربخشی آموزش مهارت‌های اجتماعی بر رفتار سازگارانه کودکان عقب‌مانده ذهنی خفيف انجام شده است. روش: 28 دانش‌آموز که برپايه آزمون هوش وکسلر کودکان، عقب‌مانده ذهنی خفيف تشخيص داده شده و دارای سطوح سازگاری پايين در خرده مقياس‌های مهارت‌های زندگی روزمره و مهارت اجتماعی‌شدن مقياس واينلند، با هوشبهر 63 تا 67 و در گروه سنی 11 سال تا 11 سال و 10 ماه بودند، انتخاب و به‌صورت تصادفی به دو گروه آزمايش (14=n) و گواه (14=n) تقسيم شدند. نخست هر يک از آزمودنی‌ها به‌کمک فهرست مهارت‌های اجتماعی و دو خرده مقياس مهارت‌های زندگی روزمره و مهارت اجتماعی‌شدن مقياس واينلند ارزيابی شدند. سپس آموزش مهارت‌های اجتماعی به‌مدت 5/2 ماه در 15 جلسه آموزشی برای آزمودنی‌‌های گروه آزمايش اجرا شد. در پايان دوره آموزش و 2 ماه پس از آن، همه آزمودنی‌‌ها دوباره به کمک ابزارهای يادشده ارزيابی شدند. يافته‌ها: تحليل داده‌ها نشان داد که گروه آزمايش پس از پايان جلسات آموزشی، بهبود معنی‌داری را در زمينه رفتار سازگارانه (مجموع مهارت‌های زندگی روزمره و مهارت اجتماعی‌شدن) و مهارت‌های اجتماعی پيدا ک...

Freedom of expression is fundamental to democracy for a democratic society constitutes diversity in thought and opinion. A democratic government must realise that criticism and condemnation underpin democracy, as well as dissent and opposition, for free speech and robust political debate are cornerstones of a democratic society. Limitations to such freedom exist in law as in sedition but a clear distinction in the law between free speech and conduct calculated to affect a seditious intent is fundamental. For sedition is historically associated with stifling and punishing criticism of the established authority to reign in political dissidents. Sedition punishes speech and as such, is a potential instrument of political suppression. And in view of the recent spate of cases for seditious offenses in Fiji, this article sets out to examine the disjuncture between the right of freedom of expression and seditious offenses, in the context of international and commonwealth freedom of expression standards as they relate to sedition laws.
