ABSTRACTInternationalisation of curriculum (IoC) practices promote students developing knowledge of other cultures, attitudes, values and ethics. This conceptual article argues that embedding critical reflection in the IoC program – through integrating insights from both IoC thinkers and critical reflection literature – may allow educators and students to not only gain understanding and/or competency in other cultures but better address questions of privilege, power and colonisation and thereby interrogate their own normative cultural understandings. Borrowing from debates within IoC pedagogy, as well as from Ahmed’s work on critical reflection, this article also argues that cross/intercultural understanding should be understood (and taught) not as a competency but a disposition towards thinking, analysing and understanding the world which is based on critiquing the ‘self’ and its relationship with the ‘other’. 相似文献

The need for manufacturing strategy is driven by varying customer demand; global competition; and rapidly advancing technology, equipment, and manufacturing methods. Decisions in process technology improve manufacturing outputs (Miltenburg, 2008). It is necessary to understand the implications of process technology for manufacturing cost, quality, delivery, flexibility, performance, and innovativeness to develop successful manufacturing strategy. This case study assesses process technology decisions compared with the competition in a packaging product manufacturing company in India. 相似文献

The importance of integrated information systems in large firms is widely accepted by academicians and practitioners. The need for information systems adoption has been proved beyond a doubt for large firms. Small and medium‐sized enterprises can also improve their performance by implementing modern information systems. This case study analyzes the benefits of information systems implementation by comparatively highlighting the performance of three small and medium‐sized enterprises with varied extent and nature of information systems in them. 相似文献

This paper reports on the role of the current student experience questionnaire in gaining student views on their educational experiences while studying at a research-intensive university in Australia. In particular, the paper focuses on the experiences of engineering students. The paper goes on to examine the areas of best practice and those identified for improvement by students. A number of areas identified by engineering students as needing improvement fall within the teaching dimension; in particular, issues relating to feedback to students and clarity of explanation. Finally, the paper outlines some of the actions that have been taken by the university and the Faculty of Engineering based on the results. 相似文献

Free radicals play an important role in the pathogenesis of tissue damage in many clinical disorders, including atherosclerosis.
Antioxidants protect the body from damage caused by free radicals. In this study we investigated oxidative stress, antioxidants
and inflammatory molecules in patients with acute myocardial infarction. This study has been carried out on 106 patients with
acute myocardial infarction, (89 men and 17 females). The control group consisted of 50 healthy, age-matched subjects (40
men and 10 females). Levels of Glucose, lipid profile, glutathione reduced, glutathione peroxidase, Superoxide dismutase,
Glycosylated hemoglobin, fibrinogen, vitamin C, vitamin E, malondialdehyde, ceruloplasmin, adenosine deaminase, lysozyme and
sialic acid were measured. Malondialdehyde and ceruloplasmin levels were significantly high and antioxidants such as vitamin
C, vitamin E, glutathione reduced, glutathione peroxidase and superoxide dismutase were significantly decreased in diabetic
and non-diabetic AMI patients as compared with control (p<0.001). Inflammatory markers showed significant rise in diabetic
patients as compared with controls. Our results clearly show increased inflammation and oxidative stress in patients with
acute myocardial infarction. Depression of antioxidant system in these patients confirms this conclusion. 相似文献

The objective of the present study was to evaluate hypolipidemic effect of methanolic extract of Celastrus paniculatus in experimentally induced hypercholesterolemic rats. Hypercholesterolemia was induced by feeding the animals with high fat
diet. Oral administration of methanolic seed extract (50%) of Celastrus paniculatus at the optimized dose of 65 mg/kg body weight, substantially reduced the plasma total cholesterol, triglycerides and LDL
cholesterol in comparison with induced hypercholesterolemic animal group and the results were comparable with the standard
hypocholesterolemic drug and almost similar to the control group. Atherogenic index and liver weight of treated animals also
showed significant decrease compared to the hypercholesterolemic animals. It substantially increased the HDL cholesterol level
as compared to control group. A significant increase in the activities of lipoprotein lipase and plasma LCAT enhanced hepatic
bile acid synthesis and thereby, increased degradation of cholesterol to neutral sterols. Furthermore, the activities of HMG-CoA
reductase, glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase and malate dehydrogenase were significantly reduced. Histological studies showed
less cholesterol deposits in the aorta of animals fed with seed extract of C. paniculatus compared to the induced hypercholesterolemic animals not given C. paniculatus supplement. 相似文献

Conclusion There are several options available to control cholesterol level through traditional treatments, natural and herbal treatments
and changing to a healthy lifestyle. The important factor is to understand the risk factors by identifying both cholesterol
levels (HDL and LDL) and how they may affect the overall health. It is extremely important to work with one’s doctor and nutritionist
to create a regimen that encompasses traditional or natural treatment. 相似文献
