Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This thesis is about reading James Joyce's Finnegans Wake as if it were a medieval dream vision and what that reveals. Defined and explored within this thesis are the four basic elements of the dream vision: dreamer, consoler, dream conflict, and frame. Each element is examined to see what it brings to and how it pertains to Finnegans Wake. It considers the possibility and complexities of a single dreamer with four facets. It reveals how Joyce uses Celtic tradition fused with Christian belief to create a three-part Irish personification for the consoler. It considers the possible universal truths, which Joyce suggests about humanity through the dreamer's conflict, and also reveals how he uses the dream vision frame to enhance this universal truth. The explorations of these four elements allow the reader a clear understanding as to how Joyce, through using a medieval literary form made an entirely modern work, but also one that was essentially Irish to its core. Most importantly this thesis reveals that like medieval poets and their dream visions, James Joyce's dream vision, Finnegans Wake, was written about and for the everyman. 64 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This study investigates the conceptualisation and execution of macro-textual features of academic writing of students in an EAP course. An assumption is that students have difficulties in producing academic writing. The study investigates participant s conceptualisation of academic writing and compares it to what they do in constructing their own academic texts. It finds that there is a difference between what they say and what they do. Their focus is generally on micro-textual level, i.e. on the level of words, phrases and sentences, which masks difficulties on macro-textual level, i.e. on the discursive level of linguistic units larger than the sentence. Furthermore, the hypothesis that differences between English L2 students and English academic norms are culturally determined, is found to be much less valid than is mostly suggested in the literature that deals with rhetorical structure of English L2 writing. 88 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The book comprises a brief theoretical review and presents four empirical studies relating to the question of whether brain areas can be specialized for reading. This question has been studied within the broader context of cognitive neuroscience, both in patients with acquired disorders of reading (alexia), and with the use of functional imaging techniques. An important account postulates that an area in the mid-fusiform gyrus - the so-called visual word form area - is specialized for reading (in literate adults). Extant evidence for and against such specialization is briefly reviewed and found inconclusive. The reported empirical studies of patients with pure alexia, as well as a functional imaging study of word and picture recognition, challenges the notion of selectivity for word or letter processing in the visual domain. However, the findings do suggest that reading may be disproportionately affected by damage to more general purpose visual recognition processes. 76 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -More than ever before, science has become an integral part of the way in which we conduct our daily activities. It is the driving force in shaping the way we live; and the decisions we make about science, in turn, shape our futures. Despite these increasingly important roles of science and technology in modern society, the science success rates of college students are discouragingly low. Achieving proficiency in science is critical for preparing students to be productive citizens who make well-informed decisions about their health and environment. In an effort to address the problem of poor science achievement in higher education, Taking Note uncovers the factors most significantly related to success in college biology. Insights into the students experiences and needs provide strategies to best help them in the pursuit of success. Meaningful curriculum and pedagogical reforms to improve student learning outcomes have been outlined here, and these recommendations can be used by science practitioners everywhere to provide a more nurturing and inspiring environment for all students. 132 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Louise Erdrich develops characters with complex identities in The Master Butchers Singing Club. These characters can be analyzed in terms of the impact family has on their development as individuals, as well as through the lens of parts of the psychoanalytic theories of Carl Jung. The character Fidelis is discussed in terms of the way family has influenced him, as well as the way in which he deals with the opposing forces that make up his personality. The character Delphine is better understood through Jung s theory of the persona, which provides a lens through which much of Delphine s character can be understood, particularly Delphine s tough exterior as a mask for her inner vulnerability. This book seeks to prove that Erdrich is presenting a complex picture of identity that can be viewed as a microcosm for the oppositions and complexities that exist for humanity in a larger sense and will benefit literary scholars in the field of American Literature. 84 pp. Englisch.

By extension, school library media specialists are major allies in providing materials and information skills education to students with disabilities. It is unclear whether media specialists have received the training to evaluate collection materials, recommend and implement assistive technologies, or use effective educational techniques in providing information skills instruction to students with disabilities. The purpose of this study was to assess current practices of school librarians in the provision of materials and services to students with disabilities. Topics covered in the survey included; collection development, inter-library loan, transfer of information skills, current budget levels, and amount of finances set aside for materials that serve this student group. Recommendations for further study are also given. 52 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This thesis covers two distinct projects on gravitational wave physics. The rst project is a mathematical computation of the gravitational radiation recoil from spinning black hole binary mergers. Radiation recoil speeds have important impli- cations in several astrophysical scenarios such as black hole ejection from globular clusters and dwarf galaxies, hierarchical formation of black holes and more. The inability to directly measure this e®ect means that theoretical predictions o®er the only insight into the size and importance of radiation recoil in the aforementioned astrophysical scenarios. The result found is that spin has the e®ect of reducing the recoil. Furthermore, the recoil speed is bounded above by roughly 100 km/s. The second project details computing the Fisher information matrix and pa- rameter space search metric for spinning down periodic sources using a simple Ptolemaic' model of the Earth's orbit. This is then used to determine the opti- mal grid for the LIGO periodic sources group to search for unknown pulsar signals. 88 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This study examines the question if test results from multiple-choice formatted math tests give an inflated representation of a student's knowledge. Specifically, it compares the test scores of a standardized multiple-choice formatted math test to the scores posted from the same math test but with the answer choices removed. The study involves 120 fifth grade students from three elementary schools from one Central Texas school district. It is a quantitative study utilizing both convenient and cluster sampling. The methodology used in this study is one of comparing the sample fifth grade students' math scores on a multiple-choice formatted test to their scores on an alternative assessment. Results from the study indicate that in every instance of comparing the scores by gender, ethnicity, socio-economic status and math objective the mean scores posted from the multiple- choice formatted test were higher than those posted by the open-ended assessment. 88 pp. Englisch.

It contains: \* An overview of the science of depression and details of research linking antenatal self-criticism with postnatal depression, \* An original perspective on the possible evolutionary origins of depression and the consequent implications for its understanding, treatment and prevention. This perspective, in contrast to the medical disease model, leads to 'a model in which depression is seen as not normally a biochemical illness or disorder, but as usually due to becoming trapped within a psychologically activated but unwanted and inappropriate suite of natural emotions'. 76 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Until now, a number of researches on language variation and change have been conducted from various perspectives, however, the approaches have not cooperated and have not shared their insights: sociolinguistic approaches have focused on a variety of factors that govern language variation and change by quantitative methods; formal approaches have focused on the qualitative analysis of human language competence as their research subject, accordingly the language usage has been overlooked. This book presents an exhaustive research about the ongoing language change in Japanese voice system, bridging between an empirical work based on a huge amount of spontaneous speech data on the one hand, and a formal account based on the grammatical theory on the other. The analysis identifies dynamic interactions of internal and external factors that govern the language variation and change, and provides a model of grammar that accommodates the inherent variability. This book should help shed some light on the driving force behind and the mechanism of language variation and change, and should be especially useful to scholars and students in sociolinguistics as well as formal linguistics. 436 pp. Englisch.

Findings support the presence of cultural stereotypes that associate receptivity with femininity and submission, and insertivity with masculinity and domination, when the judgments are made regarding one s partner, but not regarding oneself. Results also supported the notion of femininity being socially construed as the opposite of masculinity. Furthermore, the study showed the qualitative difference of the incentives sought by men in sexual interaction with one s primary and non-primary partners, and clarified the impact of sexual practices among men on their perception of their partner, with possible implications for couple s therapy. 92 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Educators agree that critical thinking should not be just another educational option, but an indispensable part of education. Yet, the debate surrounding the construct and teaching of critical thinking raises two fundamental questions, namely: (1) What are the cognitive processes that underlie critical thinking and (2) Should the teaching of critical thinking be general or contextualized The focus of this book will be the examination of such fundamental questions. In particular, the author undertakes an empirical investigation to (a) examine the cognitive structure of critical thinking by investigating possible relationships among critical thinking, general thinking skills, dispositions, and epistemic beliefs, and (b) investigate the effects of the General, the Infusion, and the Immersion teaching approaches on learners critical thinking performance. The findings would be valuable to those who are interested in promoting critical thinking in their classrooms, and academics and college students who are interested in the subject of critical thinking. 120 pp. Englisch.

In this book, the author examines the perceptions of beginning level ESL international students in a mid-size, pubic university in the Mid-Atlantic region about their experience in computer-assisted language learning. Individual case studies and cross-case study techniques were employed. Data collection involved a survey, interviews, observation, and researcher s reflective journal. The study raises a number of questions of interest to ESL educators and curriculum developers. What are the Learners perceptions of their learning experiences in a technology-assisted language learning curriculum What do they perceive to be the limitations of technology use How do they interact with various technologies in the classroom How do they actually make use of these technology applications To answer these questions, the findings were organized in four major categories: learners statements about their perceptions, a detailed description of the learners behaviors interacting with technology, their concerns about the limitations, and researcher s perceptions of these limitations. 112 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The present study is an investigation of acoustic correlates corresponding to the category [voice] in two dialects of Venezuelan Spanish. The Andean mountain dialect Mérida (MER) and Caribbean coastal dialect Margarita (MAR) are thought to differ systematically in the phonetic implementation of the Spanish phonological stop series. To test what repercussions differences in consonant articulation may have on the acoustic correlates that encode [voice], a production experiment was run. Informants were 25 adult monolingual speakers of Venezuelan Spanish from the areas of El Tirano (Margarita Island) and San Rafael de Mucuchíes (Mérida state). Target syllables were analyzed with respect to 9 acoustic parameters. Results of this study imply that while the same acoustic correlates of [voice] are operative in both fortis and lenis dialects of Spanish, [± voice] categories relate to one another differently. These results are relevant to current research on the specifics of dialectal variation in consonant systems. They also have wider implications for the general mapping of phonetics to phonology in speech. 116 pp. Englisch.

Study shows that there was a significant difference between student discipline scores of those who hold a bachelor degree and those who hold a under degree, which may imply that teachers holding advanced academic degrees tend to have a more open view of student discipline. Linear regression analyse was also used to infer the predictive power of demographic variables for teachers'' beliefs, and the result showed that the number of years teaching and highest educational attainment both have predictive power in teachers'' beliefs. There is a need of further study of teachers in colleges and Universities, administrative staff of educational departments, and administrators of schools 80 pp. Englisch.

This monograph re-evaluates Wilkes s contribution in the context of his association with the radical Enlightenment. Firstly it examines Wilkes s collaboration with the poet Charles Churchill on the North Briton and Wilkes s Introduction to the History of England written in exile. Secondly, it examines Wilkes s extensive association with leading philosophes - and in particular d Holbach, Diderot, Suard, Helvétius, and Chastellux - reflected in correspondence and political writings. Thirdly, it argues Wilkes in his public life promoted libertarian rather than libertine values. In conclusion, Wilkes is seen as a cosmopolitan and principled figure whose political ideas converged with those of contemporary philosophes. This study will be of interest to students of history and political ideas for its novel focus on the development of Wilkes s political ideas and campaigns in the context of his interaction with leading figures of the radical Enlightenment. 64 pp. Englisch.

In particular, certain cultures endorse beliefs in witchcraft, spells and spirits, which fall under the concept folklore . Folklore beliefs like witchcraft and spirit possession and their assumed impact on the manifestation of psychological disturbances persist today. It thus becomes apparent that these cultural aspects will have an impact on how psychological disturbances are experienced and treated in different communities. If one is to effectively understand diverse communities, an exploration of the impact that spiritual beliefs have on community members perceptions of psychological disturbance is imperative. By focusing on the folklore beliefs of South African Muslim and Hindu community members, this study aims to promote a deeper understanding of the impact that these beliefs have on perceptions of psychological disturbances. 96 pp. Englisch.

The iconoclasts (those who fought against the icons) stated that every image must be identical with its prototype; therefore, an icon is an idol since it pretends to be God. For the iconodules (those who venerate the icons) the icons are not idols because they are not consubstantial with or identical to their prototypes. The first part, of my book Short history of icon offers a brief overview of the history of the icons in the first seven centuries of Christianity, and presents the dispute between iconoclasts and iconodules. The second part, The Gospels in Icons according to the Eastern Orthodox Tradition describes eight icons from historical, aesthetical and liturgical points of view. In the Conclusion I stress the connection between icon and Incarnation in the context of today s Orthodoxy. The Orthodox Church endeavored to direct the human senses, including sight in its use of icons, to the greater knowledge and glorification of God. 88 pp. Englisch.

In the last half of the Twentieth Century, however, this view came under criticism, due in large part to a number of apparent counterexamples, and is now widely believed to be false. The aim of this work is to present a defense of the traditional view by showing that the putative counterexamples can be explained by recognizing the role the linguistic vehicle plays in our evaluation of modal statements. 68 pp. Englisch.

Using this variety of stories, parables, law codes, and analogies, the Rabbis were trying to reach the widest audience. There is a modern theory of education, created by Dr. Howard Gardner, which suggests that each person has the capacity to learn in different ways, the 'Multiple Intelligence' theory, specifying seven Intelligences: Linguistic, Logical-Mathematical, Bodily-Kinesthetic, Musical-Rhythmic, Spatial, Intrapersonal and Interpersonal. This thesis will examine Midrashim through the lens of Multiple Intelligences, showing that the Rabbis composed their works knowing that they had to appeal to different learners who learned and accepted information in different ways, following the advice in Proverbs 22:6, 'Train a lad according to his way'. 108 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This work looks at the 1912 Galata Bridge as a case study and attempts to examine it as a dual construction in two senses: space and memory. Acknowledging that space and memory mutually construct each other, this thesis explains each term in general but also elucidates the relationship between perception and remembrance of space by reading the materiality of the 1912 Galata Bridge. In that respect, changing meanings attributed to space over time are analysed lead us to recognise two different ways of conceiving space named as 'spaceness' and 'placeness'. This dual existence is conductive to raising questions about perception of the 1912 Galata Bridge in two layers. Taken separately, its function of conveyance and the property of inhabitation lead us to read 'spaceness' and 'placeness' that also correspond to two ways of remembering it. Its 'spaceness' is perceived by the gaze and remembered through looking at its images, its 'placeness, on the other hand, is experienced by the body and recollected through reading texts that describe the actual engagement. 84 pp. Englisch.

Another aim was to identify the significance of specific religious objects and activities in order to investigate how these contribute to the performance of identity in the Zionists. The investigation was rooted in various ritual performance theories (Turner, 1982; Schechner, 2002). The investigation revealed that Zionist identity is performed on both the individual and collective levels of Zionist culture. The results indicated that identity is constructed through a series of religious acts and symbolic behaviours and that identity formation occurs through performance. It was also discovered that Zionist church services are highly ritualised and that spiritual identities emerge through restored behaviours prescribed in the ritual context. The belief in the Holy Spirit was also discovered to play a significant role in the emergence of spiritual identities. 80 pp. Englisch.

Theology itself needs to be re defined and re examined in the context of the religious experience of the people from this region. One of the achievements of 20th century theories of knowledge and culture has been the increasing awareness that the way things are perceived is intrinsically linked with the background of the perceiver . In the light of these developments in the field of knowledge and culture theories, Caribbean thinkers and social agents are now becoming increasingly aware that history, culture and economics have been critical factors in the shaping of the discourse about and from the Caribbean. Idris HAMID and Kortright DAVIS have been two people who attempted to articulate the co ordinates that should steer such change and give the necessary sense of coherence. We have set ourselves as our goal in this paper to offer a bird s eye view of the developments of Caribbean theology in the 70 s, the 80 s and the 90 s. 68 pp. Englisch.
