Abstract:

Over a decade after the regulation change in Virginia allowing individuals without teaching experience to pursue school counseling careers, no known study had focused exclusively on differences site supervisors observe when training school counselors from different professional backgrounds and the extent to which those counselors employ a tailored supervision approach in the clinical setting. While site supervisor training has been an area of interest in recent articles (e.g., Dollarhide & Miller, 2006), its relationship to supervision philosophies and technique differentiation has not been pr

Abstract:

The literature review on emerging concepts of 'Business model' and 'Business model innovation' finds significant theoretical and practical potential to facilitate the strategising and innovating activities of modern organisations operating in complex and dynamic business environments. However, a further review of extant literature reveals that although a significant knowledge-base has been accumulated focusing on the content and process aspects of the phenomenon, very few of the conducted studies take a practice-based perspective. Therefore, in keeping with the broader research question of cur

It is common for companies to adopt manufacturing best practices in this design process to emulate the success and performance of their counterparts. However, practices should be adapted to the competitive environment and strategy of the

Abstract:

In this study, the dimensions of environmental determinants of students' satisfaction with their practice teaching were identified and examined. The study employed a non-experimental survey design and utilised a methodology suggested by Hays (1982) for data analysis. Aspects of the vitamin model of job satisfaction developed by Warr (1986, 1987) provided a theoretical base for the study. Two hundred and ninety-five primary teacher education students completed a fifty-five-item questionnaire developed for the study. A factor analysis of these students' responses identified five dimensions. T

Abstract:

Globalization has continuously brought an increased competition among companies, which entails a need for faster and more frequent deliveries of new products. Traditional project management methods, such as stage-gate and waterfall, are commonly used in production development projects and builds on a sequential approach. These methods have proven to have some disadvantages in flexibility, long lead times and it often creates communication barriers between the actors at each stage. The software industry has already encountered these obstacles and responded by introducing agile project managemen

Abstract:

The overall purpose of this thesis is to examine the models for effective compliance, and those currently adopted in practice within the financial service sector. The need for financial service organisations to maintain a robust compliance function has developed due to ever increasing regulatory demands following the most recent global financial crisis, alongside concerns over compliance culture within financial service organisations. An overarching research question exists of why the compliance function is often viewed as business inhibiting within practice. This research engaged with practit

Abstract:

Background. Over the years, agile software development has become increasingly popular in the software industry. One of the reasons is that agile development addressed the needs of the organisations better than the traditional models, such as the waterfall model. However, the textbook version of agile development still leaves something to be desired. This could be learnt by observing the implementation of agile methods/frameworks in the industry. The teams often customize agile methods to suit their context-specific needs. When teams in the industry decide to adopt the agile way of working, th

Schema merging is the process of incorporating data models into an integrated, consistent schema from which query solutions satisfying all incorporated models can be derived. The efficiency of such a process is reliant on the effective semantic representation of the chosen data models, as well as the mapping relationships between the elements of the source data models. Consider a scenario where, as a result of company mergers or acquisitions, a number of related, but possible disparate data marts need to be integrated into a global data warehouse.

Abstract:

Judaism is a religion that emphasises the importance of a set of practical commandments and in the history of Jewish philosophy various attempts have been made to rationalise or justify these commandments. In this thesis I try to establish a general model for the justification of practices through a critical examination of two such attempted rationalisations. However, the study is framed within the more general question of whether or not there can be such a thing as Jewish Philosophy as a genuinely substantive discipline. Thus, I take the particular topic of rationalising the commandments as a

However, previous research studies have mostly focused on the use of representation and models as outcome measure of an implementation task and little is known about the learner’s perspectives.

Abstract:

Hot rolling is a highly complex physical problem. The difficult geometry and the hot deformation behaviour of Carbon strip steels during hot rolling render this process difficult to investigate during normal operations or within the laboratory. Numerical models can therefore be used to further understanding of hot rolling with their ability to predict variables that are difficult or even impossible to measure during normal hot rolling operations. A numerical model has been developed using the commercial ABAQUS Finite-Element software package to consider the effect of process variables such as
