The Study of Relationships Between Perceptions of English Communicative Proficiency of International Students and College Satisfaction

The research was carried out at ISU in fall 2007. Eighty-five international students voluntarily participated in the study. Each subject was asked to assess his or her levels of English proficiency and rate his or her college satisfaction via an online survey.

The study also found no significant relationship between undergraduate students'
English ability and college satisfaction except in the areas of the faculty respect
for students and an opportunity for personal involvement in campus activities.

Computerized Approaches to Enhance Understanding of Organic Reaction Mechanisms: CAN Reaction Mechanisms and CPLEX Prelaboratory Methodology

The utility of CPLEX was further demonstrated by enabling a study of the effectiveness of animated reaction mechanisms to promote student learning. While most instructors believe that animated mechanisms aid student understanding of reactions, there has been no quantitative data to-date to support this view. In this work, a quantitative study, using an experimental/control group study, was conducted to provide data on the effectiveness of animated reaction mechanisms to promote student learning. Analysis of student answers, using an appropriate rubric, demonstrated that there was a statistically significant improvement in students' scores in the mechanistic question of a pre-laboratory quiz in the post-treatment results of the experimental group which had had access to the animated reaction mechanisms (Chapter 3).

This format was adopted because many of the students had previously used
WE_LEARN as a teaching supplement in their lecture, thereby providing a
presentation technology in a format to which they had become accustomed.

Global Risks and Collective Action Failures: What Can the International Community Do?

Abstract What do climate change, global financial crises, pandemics, and fragility and conflict have in common? They are all examples of global risks that can cross geographical and generational boundaries and whose mismanagement can reverse gains in development and jeopardize the well-being of generations. Managing risks such as these becomes a global public good, whose benefits also cross boundaries, providing a rationale for collective action facilitated by the international community. Yet, as many public goods, provision of global public goods suffer from collective action failures that undermine international coordination. This paper discusses the obstacles to addresing these global risks effectively, highlighting their implications for the current juncture. It claims that remaining gaps in information, resources, and capacity hamper accumulation and use of knowledge to triger appropriate action, but diverging national interests remain the key impediment to cooperation and effectiveness of global efforts, even when knowledge on the risks and their consequences are well understood. The paper argues that managing global risks requires a cohesive international community that enables its stakeholders to work collectively around common goals by facilitating sharing of knowledge, devoting resources to capacity building, and protecting the vulnerable. When some countries fail to cooperate, the international community can still forge cooperation, including by realigning incentives and demonstrating benefit from incremental steps toward full cooperation.

Economic and financial crises are clear examples of risks that can transcend
national borders in a world of tightly interconnected economic and financial
systems. While creating opportunities for international risk sharing and helping
