Service request scheduling has a major impact on the performance of the service processing design in a large-scale distributed computing environment like cloud systems. It is desirable to have a service request scheduling principle that evenly distributes the workload among the servers, according to their capacities. The capacities of the servers are termed high or low relative to one another. Therefore, there is a need to quantify the server capacity to overcome this subjective assessment....

Negative journalistic opinion on bilingual education has been widespread enough to have formed the context of public opinion within which national policy on bilingual education has been set. It can be surmised that what is propelling the journalistic assault on bilingual education is the particular orientation English monolinguals have adopted toward this activity. Orientation is here used as a description of the composite of attitudes, beliefs, prejudices, and perspectives that influence...

An evaluation system that is designed to support and improve teacher practice--rather than simply to assess and manage teacher performance--would have as its foundation effective and reliable processes to observe classroom practice and give teachers useful feedback. Such an improvement-focused evaluation system should be aligned with and contribute to a district-wide system that includes a shared definition of teacher quality, a clear set of district priorities, and a coherent strategy for...

This paper defines the processes of evolution and natural selection for the non-scientist, and summarizes its history in the context of scientific racism. Types of creationism are defined, and both evolution and creationism are contextualized in the theoretical frameworks of modernism and postmodernism. The philosophical differences between scientists and creationists that lead to their conflict are discussed.

Freedom of expression is imperiled on today's college campuses. Citizens and educators alike are concerned about the number of shout-downs and disinvitations and their silencing effect on intellectual diversity. The use of speech codes, "safe spaces," new rules demanding "trigger warnings," and condemning "micro-aggressions" raises the specter of some new and unforeseen force in our history, where mere ideas are considered offensive and dangerous. In a fresh,...

In recent years, there has been a focus on what constitutes effective teaching and how to measure teacher performance. Efforts to more rigorously evaluate teachers, to hold them accountable for student learning, and to help them improve practice have been initiated at the district, state, and federal levels. However, many teachers believe that additional accountability, in the absence of efforts to improve the conditions in which teachers work, is a step in the wrong direction. The National...

Packaging student financial aid, bringing the various forms of assistance together into a combination of resources sufficient for an individual student to meet college costs, reflects national and institutional philosophy about who should have access to higher education and who should pay, and how the pool of applicants is to be treated equitably. The importance of packaging policies and procedures lies in the growing multiplicity of sources of aid and the fact that aid is different in kind....

For the past 35 years, the prevailing narrative about America's public education system is that it is "broken." Reform efforts have failed to find a fix because they fundamentally misunderstand this reality: the system is not broken. It is doing exactly what it was designed to do--educate the masses in a standardized fashion that completely disregards who students are as individuals. In this report, author Krista Kaput makes the case for student-centered learning, a schooling design...

This paper examines recent empirical evidence and policy analyses of family-oriented research projects funded by ACYF in order to identify general principles for public policies affecting families with young children. An initial definition of the policy problem focuses on the relationship between families as private systems that enhance human development and bureaucratic structures intended to maintain public good. Two levels of policy implications are identified: policy principles or goals and...

This paper presents four principles to be followed in the development of experience-based curriculum. The principles have been extrapolated from John Dewey's theory of experience ("Experience and Education," 1938). They are discussed in this paper in terms of several existing curriculum materials for elementary and secondary education. The first principle is that the selection of learning experiences should be based upon the continuity and interaction of the learner's past, present,...

The cognitive/developmental theories of Jean Piaget and John Dewey assert that people learn by doing and that they grow intellectually by tackling demanding problems. It is this active, problem-solving orientation that is central to a cognitive/developmental approach to composition teaching. Six core principles can serve as guides for composition teachers who want to apply the approach to their classrooms. The key is to provide holistic writing tasks with genuine aims and audiences in mind. The...

The study was grounded within Friedrichsten et al.'s (2011) definition of STOs and Gess-Newsome's (2015) conceptualization of TPK. We gathered data using semi-structured interviews on the two dimensions of STOs: goals and purposes of science teaching, and beliefs about science teaching and learning. We used a...

How can we begin to imagine a post-modern rendering of science education when the disciples of science continue to cling so firmly to a creation myth in which Science, like Botticelli's Venus stepping forth from a clam shell, breaks away from the pre-modern metaphysical commitments of religion, magic and the superstition in a singular event called the Copernican Revolution? Like Heidegger returning to pre-Socratic philosophy in order to re-examine the question of being, I want to argue in this...

HIJRAH: FROM HYPOCRISY TO SINCERITY Allah ( سبحانه وتعالى ) says: {O YOU WHO HAVE BELIEVED! WHY DO YOU SAY WHAT YOU DO NOT DO? IT IS MOST HATEFUL IN THE SIGHT OF ALLAH THAT YOU SAY WHAT YOU DO NOT DO} [Surah As-Saff 61:2-3] Verses like these moved the Sahābah (Companions) so that they would not be counted by Allah amongst the hypocrites. The fear of hypocrisy creeping into their hearts did not leave them time to rest, contrary to the Muslims of this era who constantly...

The importance of vocabulary, its types, selection criteria, size and depth, and teaching principles were found unclear. The present article seeks to respond to such challenge. To achieve the mentioned goals, we did a systematic review to previously related studies and theories. The results showed that the vocabulary was found to be more functional as a basis for communication, a reflection of social reality, emotion booster, and academic ability predictor. It also revealed that its...

As long has been known, there is no perfect way to teach science. This paper makes no claim to be the 'be-all and end-all' of science education. Rather it critically examines what we teach learners in science and what they learn and tries to offer suggestions that can help teachers to surmount the scholastic inadequacies they tend to encounter in teaching science. Going beyond previous literature, it asks why we teach science, and why is science included in the school curriculum. From a...

No one is satisfied with science education in the U.S. today. One need only look at Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS), Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA), and National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) data to see what a mediocre job is being done of imparting a solid science education to the average American student. There are multiple reasons for this failure, not least the poor preparation of too many teachers whose job it is to teach...

The claim that science education is better served by a conception of science that moves beyond metaphysical pre-suppositions is moot without a plausible candidate for such a post-metaphysical rendering of science. This paper takes Jacob Bronowski's philosophy of science as such a candidate and evaluates both the degree to which it is post-metaphysical and the extent to which it can be applied to re-imagining science education. The evaluation of Bronowski's ideas is undertaken within a...
