The results showed that TMs-students-instructor interaction facilitated the learning of specialized translation strategies, meeting the constructivist educational principle of ＂interaction＂. In addition, students effectively constructed new translation knowledge through the negotiation of the differences between student and professional translators＇ translations, concurring with the constructivist educational principle of ＂conflict resolution＂. Finally, students successfully learned technical skills of the Trados tool through hands-on practice, and cognitively acquired specialized translation knowledge through reflections writing and oral presentations, fitting the constructivist educational principle of ＂active participation＂. Overall, most students＇ positive responses justified the constructive educational effectiveness of TM-aided specialized translation through TMs consultation, peer help and the instructor support in the self-paced and student-centered learning environment.展开更多

IntroductionCurrently, there are at least 850,000 people living with human immuno-deficiency virus (HIV) and acquired immuno-deficiency syndrome (AIDS) in China. Among them 16-29 years old account for about 65%. According to the Chinese health authorities, if the preventive measures are not effective, the figure could reach as many as 10 million by the year 2010[1]. Since there are currently no cure or vaccines for HIV/AIDS, changing people's high-risk behaviors is the main approach that is taken to slow down the epidemic. This can be done through effective HIV/AIDS education, especially for young people. In 1997, a 4-year adolescent HIV/AIDS peer education program was introduced to in Beijing and Shanghai, which was based on a successful Australian model developed by Professor Roger Short, in which senior medical students were trained and used as peer educators to teach their junior peers about HIV/AIDS[2].……展开更多

This quantitative evaluation is numerical modeling of biomaterial of human body. Measurement for rehabilitation and developing numerical modeling in patients are useful for information technology education with healthcare background. The resistive torque and electromyogram were measured. Electromyogram is the neuronal activity from eight lower limb muscles. Both activities are output signals for angle input signals. The resistive torque of a stroke patient shows a hysteresis curve, and this is a velocity-dependent component, particular for stroke. Differentiated angle by muscle spindle, a velocity-dependent component, is a stretch reflex （spasticity）. In an electromyogram of a stroke patient, SLR （stretch reflex via spinal cord） means a short latency reflex, and LLR （stretch reflex via cerebral cortex） means a long latency reflex. An example of some stroke electromyogram shows long latency reflex, and this is voluntary movement during the experiment. The example of some stroke resistive torque reveals that viscoelasticity is used for the intrinsic component. The example of some stroke electromyogram reveals that long latency reflex is used for the reflex component of lower limbs. Current research needs improvement. Intrinsic viscoelasticity is modeled by a second-order differential equation. The reflex component of stroke patients is modeled by a double exponential function. Open source software is in use. Information technology-based analyses by numerical modeling would be applied in future healthcare education.展开更多

This Hadith, sayings or actions of the prophet Muhammad （MPBUH）l, indicates that there is no preference based on sex in getting access to education in Islam; however, there is a growing misconception among the people of other religions that Islam constrains Muslim girls from getting education. This paper reviews literature and two authentic sources of Islamic scriptures, which are the Holy Qura＇an and the Ahadith to position the girls＇ education in purview of Islam. It further examines the possible reasons for conflicting interpretations of Islamic teachings. It concludes that Islam does not restrict girls from getting education. It recommends further systematic studies for exploring the reasons for the projection of distorted images of Islam.展开更多

Safety in production is an insurmountable red bottom line for every enterprise. The guarantee of safety in production lies in both material factors and human factors. The most important and basic part of this factor is safety education. Safety education and training are in place, safety education knowledge is effectively instilled, and the content and carrier of safety education and training are practical, which is both the foundation and the focus. Therefore, it is necessary to establish a safety education and training mechanism in order to maintain the orderly development of the production and operation of enterprises. Only effective safety education, training and training methods break through the traditional mode, can employees carry out safety production based on their posts, and protecting themselves is one of the important factors of safety.展开更多
