Creating educative spaces for second-generation Somali-Canadian youth through informal education     

Thashika Pillay  Neda Asadi 《Diaspora, Indigenous, and Minority Education》2018,12(4):201-213

Available statistics and literature indicate that Somali-Canadian youth face unique challenges in their everyday lives. Somali students have a 36.7 % dropout rate (Jibril, 2011). Somali-Canadian community members in Edmonton contend that Somali-Canadian students are labelled with behavioural or cognitive disorders, diagnoses that do not take into consideration students’ academic, social, or cultural backgrounds (Ahmed, 2007). They are situated in a complex web of family, religion, culture, and education (Forman, 2001) where they have to negotiate their sense of self and develop their identity. This research will attempt to understand the experiences of Somali-Canadian youth regarding their identity as learners, community members, and as Canadians. In this study, we utilize a social justice framework to help uncover the complex intersections of racism, cultural identities, and liberal education systems. This qualitative study is focused on understanding the lived experiences and actual social contexts of Somali-Canadian youth in Alberta.  相似文献

Detection of optimal spreading codes for DS-CDMA wireless systems with despreading sequences weighted by adjustable chip waveforms     

Ibrahim Develi 《Journal of The Franklin Institute》2005,342(1):69-84

This paper considers the problem of detecting the optimal spreading codes (OSC) in a given code set for a direct sequence-code division multiple access system that employs despreading sequences weighted by adjustable chip waveforms. Due to computational complexity required to detect the OSC in a code set, a simple and efficient strategy is introduced. Analysis and numerical results show that the proposed strategy can successfully distinguish the spreading codes being most suitable references for a given code set in which the candidate spreading codes have equal crosscorrelation properties.  相似文献   

The use of lysosomal enzymuria in the early detection and monitoring of the progression of diabetic nephropathy     

Donatien Gatsing  Ibrahim Hassan Garba  Godwin I. Adoga 《Indian journal of clinical biochemistry : IJCB》2006,21(2):42-48

Recent acquisitions on the early detection and monitoring of the progression of diabetic complications (nephropathy) using the techniques of enzymology (lysosomal enzymes) are reviewed. it appears that the kidney is the principal source of urinary lysosomal enzymes. Urinary samples for lysosomal enzyme determination can be either 24-hour or spot-collection. The use of synthetic substrates (4-methylumbelliferyl substrates) provides an easy, inexpensive, sensitive and highly reproducible method of lysosomal enzyme assay. It is recommended that more than one enzyme be assayed in the process. The use of fractional enzyme excretion (FEE) ratios is further recommended. The urinary lysosomal glycosidases investigated and found to be of particular diagnostic value in the early detection of diabetic nephropathy include N-acetyl-β-D-glucosaminidase (β-hexosaminidase, NAG), β-glucuronidase and β-galactosidase, with NAG being the most useful indicator. Urinary NAG can be used in monitoring the progression of diabetic nephropathy. The fluorimetric assay of lysosomal glycosidases is particuarly recommended in developing countries since it is simple, sensitive and inexpensive.  相似文献

The impact of orthographic connectivity on visual word recognition in Arabic: A cross-sectional study     

Asaid Khateb  Manal Khateb-Abdelgani  Haitham Y. Taha  Raphiq Ibrahim 《Reading and writing》2014,27(8):1413-1436

This study aimed at assessing the effects of letters’ connectivity in Arabic on visual word recognition. For this purpose, reaction times (RTs) and accuracy scores were collected from ninety-third, sixth and ninth grade native Arabic speakers during a lexical decision task, using fully connected (Cw), partially connected (PCw) and nonconnected (NCw) Arabic words and pseudowords. Effects of grade on word recognition (in RTs and accuracy) and word superiority were predicted to occur. Also, in the third grade, recognition of NCw was predicted to be faster and more accurate than recognition of Cw, because in previous studies NCw were assumed to be visually less complex. In sixth and ninth grades, due to the frequent exposure to connected forms, the recognition of Cw was predicted to be as fast as or faster and more accurate than NCw. The findings largely supported the first and the second hypotheses. As for the third graders, a mixed pattern was obtained, suggesting that the participants were probably in a transitional phase. The results from sixth graders clearly showed that NCw yielded the slowest response times and the lowest accuracy scores across connectivity conditions. Finally, for ninth graders, the absence of connectivity effects on the speed of processing was attributed to the use of very frequent and highly automatized words.  相似文献

Enhancing employability through industrial training in the Malaysian context     

Stefanie Pillai  Mahmud H. Khan  Ida Syahirah Ibrahim  Sharmane Raphael 《Higher Education》2012,63(2):187-204

This study discusses the industrial training programme at the University of Malaya in Malaysia, specifically the issues that need to be addressed in order to enhance the employability skills of graduates. Findings from the feedback obtained from trainees and organizations in the 2008/2009 academic session were examined in terms of the extent to which trainees felt they were prepared for their training, and the extent to which the tasks given to them during their training were appropriate. Further, trainees’ self-rating of particular skills and industry’s rating of the trainees were also examined. The feedback is discussed in the context of the need to equip graduates with employability skills, an issue facing Higher Education Providers worldwide. The findings indicate that most of the students were prepared to face the world of work. However, there were several issues which needed attention. These included the need to address the possible mismatch between the tasks assigned to trainees and their areas of study, and the need to enhance English language competency and particular soft skills throughout their degree programme. Continuous input from industry is also necessary to ensure that the training benefits all parties and contributes to the employability skills of trainees.  相似文献
