Higher education policies related to quality assurance are implemented in many countries. The purposes of such policies are
to ensure the provision for high-quality education, university accountability and transparency in the use of public funding
and meeting the needs of the diverse stakeholders. The current Australian Higher Education Quality Assurance Framework was
implemented in the year 2000. It can be described that the framework has been enjoyed by universities, academics and other
providers in Australia. This paper provides a brief history of quality assurance, its evolution in higher education in Australia
and current changes and trends in quality assurance in other developed countries. It then provides an analysis of the success
and deficiencies of the current framework used in Australia and suggestions which may be helpful in the development of the
new framework. The analysis includes the thoughts of the three authors based on their experience in managing quality and reviews
in seven different institutions and the views of more than 40 participants who are staff members from 25 Australian universities. 相似文献

Apolipoprotein E genotypes and lipid and lipoprotein levels were determined in hypercholesterolemic and angiographically vertified
CHD subjects and compared against 90 normolipidemic controls. The ε4 allele was significantly prevalent in the hypercholesterolemic
and CHD subjects. Significant increase in total cholesterol levels in apo ε4 containing subjects were observed in the hypercholesterolemic
and CHD group. The study suggests that the ε4 allele by influencing the lipid levels could act as a risk factor for CHD. 相似文献

Ever since its isolation in 1820, Quinine has played a crucial role in the development of organic chemistry, chemical industry
and modern medicine. The total synthesis of quinine, widely regarded as anevent of epochal importancewas claimed by Woodward
and Doering in 1945. This work, however, heavily relied on unsubstantiated literature reports and it appears that Woodward’s
work fell short of a total synthesis of quinine. The first stereoselective total synthesis of quinine was accomplished only
in 2001, by Stork, who incidentally is the originator of the concept of stereoselectivity in total synthesis. Naturally, this
work has been attested as a landmark in organic synthesis by leaders in the field. 相似文献

Analysis of tubercular antibody, circulating free and immune complexed antigen (CIC-Ag) was done in confimed pulmonary tuberculosis
sera by ELISA, using ES-31 antigen and affinity purified anti ES-31 antibody. Twenty three of 25 (92%) tuberculosis sera were
positive for IgG antibody to ES-31 antigen. Using anti ES-31 antibody, free tubercular antigen could be detected in 20 of
25 (80%) cases whereas circulating immune complexed antigen (CIC-Ag) in 18 of 25 (72%) cases by sandwich ELISA. Of the two
sera showing absence of antibody, one showed presence of free and CIC-Ag whereas the other showed the presence of free antigen.
Thus antigen assay may be used as an adjunct tool for confirmation of pulmonary tuberculosis. 相似文献

The cardiac sarcolemma was characterized in 13 normal and 11 ischemic dog hearts by enzyme analysis and compositional assays. Significant decreases in the activities of the sodium-potassium and calcium pumps and structural compositional disturbances were observed in ischemia. High concentrations of oleic acid, a fatty acid and palmitoyl carnitine, a fatty acid intermediate caused inhibition of the enzyme pump activities of the normal sarcolemma. Thus, ischemia results in the functional impairment of the sarcolemma. Accumulation of fatty acid and fatty acid intermediates, occurring in myocardial ischemia, could be an underlying mechanism. 相似文献

This research paper explores students’ motivation and teachers’ teaching practices towards the writing of compositions in the conventional paper-based (paper and pencil) and the online blogs mode. Six classes of Grade 5 (224 students) and four English teachers in an elementary-level future school in Singapore were involved in this study. A total of four written assignments were given to the students – two conventional paper and pencil and two online blog-written assignments. No significant difference was found in students’ scores on these assignments. However, the submission rate for the conventional paper-based assignments was 93.8% as compared to 75% for the online blogs entries. Although both students and teachers in this study are savvy information communication technology users who have been exposed to one-to-one computing since Grade 1, the use of blogs for journal writing was not natural to both parties. Teachers found that it was more cumbersome to grade and give comments on students’ online blog posts via the online platform and likewise, students also faced issues with the submission of their online writing assignments. Some students quoted that they preferred writing via conventional paper and pencil mode, experienced network connection and technical issues, had poor time management, experienced forgetfulness and distraction from the computers and the Internet for not submitting their online writing assignments. This study also once again highlighted the importance of the teacher, as one out of the four teachers managed to get all her students to submit their writing assignments. The in-depth analysis of the interviews with the teachers and students, students’ perception survey, students’ performance in their writing tasks (both online and paper-based) and submission rates had revealed useful insights and considerations on the use of blogs to engage students in writing. 相似文献

In the societal structure, the family is undergoing a transition and the most noticeable consequence of this transition happens to be a marked increase in the number of people addicted to alcohol. Alcoholism creates a major stress on individual family members and the family system. Drinking behaviour may interrupt normal family tasks, cause conflict and demand adjustive and adaptive responses from family members who do not know how to appropriately respond. In brief, alcoholism creates a series of escalating crises in family structure and function, which may bring the family to a system crisis. As a result, the members develop dysfunctional coping behaviour called Codependency. Therefore, it is imperative to involve family members in treatment. Family therapy is designed with the end in mind and it is specific, with attainable therapeutic goals. There are certain special population who need a lot of support in the form of family therapy. Children of alcoholics are one of the largest, most explosive and most remedial population who need help. Secondly, the number of women alcoholics is on the rise. Their addiction leads to neglect of children, and parenting responsibilities are compromised. In the future, drug related education needs to be viewed as a people rather than a chemical problem aimed directly at parents and families. Education efforts should revolve around family life, with emphasis on positive ways to deal with the issue of addiction, and treatment needs to shift from individual oriented to family system approach. 相似文献

An in-house radioimmuno assay for serum thyroglobulin was developed in our laboratory and compared its relative sensitivity
with that of whole body scan in the detection of residual tumour or metastases and evaluated the predictive value of serum
thyroglobulin in the clinical course of the disease. Ninety six patients after thyroidectomy were followed up for a maximum
period of five years in this study.
The sensitivity and specificity of serum thyroglobulin were found to be close to that of whole body scan (85% and 94% respectively).
According to this study, a serum thyroglobulin >40 ng/ml can differentiate between patients with metastases and those in remission.
Serum thyroglobulin can replace whole body scan during the subsequent follow-up if the patient had concordant whole body scan
and serum thyroglobulin during initial assessment. 相似文献
