Historic fluctuations in international energy prices and adjustments in energy relations have taken place in the past two years. The energy system has fallen into disorder and discomfort;volatility in the energy market has triggered a strong domino effect, and major countries have taken unprecedented measures to address it. These changes have pushed international energy politics to a new development track. In a certain period of time in the future, the political and security aspects of energy will once again come to the fore. The long-term nature and complexity of the energy transition have become more obvious. In international energy politics, turbulence and uncertainty will be the new normal. A new binary opposition may emerge in the international energy landscape as well, with constant changes taking place in the connotation and extension of energy security. Academic and strategic circles should think deeply about how to dialectically discuss the relation between energy transition and the major changes of a scale unseen in a century, energy transition and energy security, and geopolitics and energy politics, among others, and consider the integration of development and security and the realization of common energy security as important principles for operating and developing energy strategies and promoting global energy governance.展开更多

However, there is a great dispute about the viability of the current practices by those responsible to evaluate and support teachers. This study aims at investigating the effectiveness of a new supervisory method called "Unseen Observation" (henceforth UO), a strategy where teachers sit for a pre/post-lesson discussions but with no observer in class. Teachers were interviewed to measure their perceptions of the new method. Various findings were reached as to the level of satisfaction by teachers and their abilities to reflect on their lessons without the presence of the observer in their lessons展开更多
