Displaced Population: A Case Study of the Syrian Forced Migrants in Qatar

Since the outbreak of the Syrian conflict in 2011, roughly 5.6 million Syrians have fled the country as a result of the ongoing conflict in the region. Many of them have crossed into Gulf nations such as Qatar, even though this nation was not a signatory to the 1951 United Nations Refugee Convention. This study aims to explore the efforts made by the Qatari government to improve the situation of Syrian forced migrants in Qatar as well as refugees elsewhere. Interviews were carried out with Syrians who entered Qatar since 2011, recording narratives of their experiences in the country. The findings revealed that visa status had a strong influence on whether the experiences of Syrian forced migrants were positive or negative, and suggest that the Qatari government should do more to ensure that the human rights of the Syrian forced migrants within its borders are upheld

CORRELATION BETWEEN NEURAL RESPONSE TELEMETRY (NRT) MESUREMENT LEVEL AND BEHAVIORL (T-LEVEL AND C-LEVEL) IN PRELINGUAL COCHLEAR IMPLANT PATIENTS

 Objectives: To study the correlation between Neural Response Telemetry (NRT) measurement level and behavioral (Threshold level and Comfort level) in pre lingual cochlear implant patients age between 2 -10 years old at one and three months post implant. Methods: A cross sectional study conducted at University Kebangsaan Malaysia Medical Center from September 2010 to January 2012. Total numbers of hundred patients were involved in this study.All recipients implanted with Nucleus 24 cochlear implant and had full insertion and normal activation of the electrode array. Comparison between intra-operative NRT measurement level and behavioral (T-level and C-level) in cochlear implant patients at one month and three months post implantation were obtained respectively. Results: This study showed the intra-operative NRT levels were seen to fall between the T and C levels in one and three months respectively. There was also a positive correlation between NRT value measurements and both T and C value measurements in both one and three months (p value 0.01). There is a fair strength of the linear relationship between NRT and behavioral level in both one and three month post implant as shown by the r value (0.4 at one month, 0.2 at three months) Conclusion: It is useful to use the NRT values to predict the behavioral T and C values in prelingual children and an additional tool for the mapping. Key words: Neural Response Telemetry (NRT); Threshold level; Comfort level; Nucleus 24 cochlear implant.

Assessment Strategies in Online Learning Environments During the COVID-19 Pandemic in Oman

The shift to successful online learning requires online assessment strategies that could facilitate the learning and teaching process and determine the achievement of learning outcomes. This study examined how students’ achievement was assessed in an online learning environment during the COVID-19 pandemic and how the College of Education (COE) responded to the shift to online assessment strategies. A mixed-method design using questionnaires and interviews was conducted to collect data from academic staff at COE at Sultan Qaboos University. The study sample consisted of (n=60) academic staff who agreed to answer the research questionnaire. Moreover, the researchers interviewed four academic staff who were experts in online assessment and teachers of practical courses. The interview data were analysed and corroborated with evidence from documents issued by the COE and SQU. The study’s findings showed that the academic staff applied various online assessment strategies to measure the learners’ achievement. The most applied online assessment strategies were individual projects, presentations, online discussions, and written assignments. The study also found that the COE took measures to enhance its online assessment procedures, including developing an online assessment policy, providing professional development programs, workshops and webinars, and encouraging its staff to conduct further studies to improve online learning practices. Based on the findings, the study suggested some educational implications and recommendations

Synthesis and applications of tungsten and vanadium oxides/oxyhydroxides in both bulk and nanoparticulate forms

The reactions of tungstic acid towards alkenes, alkynes, and nitriles were explored in order to determine the scope of its reactions with unsaturated hydrocarbons. The chemistry was found to be complex with small changes in substrates leading to significant changes in the products produced. Most reactions, but not all, resulted from strong acid catalysis. Dehydrogenation, dimerization, cyclotrimerization, oligomerization, and hydration reactions were observed. Single-step reactions to produce useful triazenes or to convert light petroleum fractions to diesel fuel, the Jacobsen rearrangement of alkyl benzenes, and the first non-enzymatic retro benzoin condensation were discovered. The products have potential applications in organic synthesis, industry, and medicine. The reduction of colloidal suspensions of vanadium bronze were found to produce suspensions of vanadium bronze nanoparticles while reactions with bulk materials produced bulk bronzes. Bimetallic oxides and oxyhydroxides of vanadium combined with aluminum, zirconium, yttrium, and lanthanum were successfully obtained through reaction of the aqueous vanadyl oxalate and the corresponding metal oxide or hydroxide. These materials have important applications in catalysis, pigments, and explosive sensing. In the latter respect, sensing systems for hydrogen peroxide detection utilizing colloidal vanadium bronzes, vanadyl solutions, and thin film of vanadium oxide materials were developed. Thin films of V10O24-12H2O were made successfully from a nanometric suspension of the material produced by reduction of peroxovanadic acid by oxalic acid. This film showed electrical conductivity and stability for long periods of time. All of the vanadium-containing systems tested showed rapid dramatic colors change after exposure to hydrogen peroxide exposure. Supporting the materials on porous alumina surfaces resulted in a significant enhancement of the sensitivity towards peroxide. Two of these sensing systems showed exceptional promise for sensor development due to their ability to regenerate their original color after hydrogen peroxide exposure ends. Kinetic analysis of color regeneration found it to be a first order reaction. The resting states of these two catalytic systems are the blue reduced vanadium compound. When exposed to hydrogen peroxide the materials adopt the red coloration of a vanadium hydroperoxide complex but once removed from hydrogen peroxide, the blue color slowly regenerates as the red color fades
