DESIGN STAGES OF AN ONLINE COURSE

Worldwide, there are more and more enterprises, organizations and educational institutions where the educational process works partially or exclusively via the Internet using a wide range of online courses. In such an online course design, resources and materials made available to learners must compensate the missing of the physical presence of the trainer or teacher as well as the missing of a direct and permanent communication between learners and trainers/teachers, these features being common to traditional educational process through classroom courses. The stages of such process, which will be presented in this article, are of similar order with those of making a traditional classroom course, but require a more effort, a more specialized people involved and a greater number of activities.E-learning, learning content management systems, online education

Investment management in associative units

The Management of Regional Biodiversity – Forest Potential

The considerations on the ability of forest to maintain ecological balance and numerous environmental protection functions require the exercise of a sensible management, consistent with regional development plans. This is the more necessary as, at this moment, we are situated well below the limit of a forestation, in terms of European woodland. The management of the forest biodiversity, seen as an economic and environmental manner, permits, among other things, a sustainable exploitation of the potential through specific actions, scheduled actions of timber production, deadlines of contraction, territorial redistribution of quotas of timber, a forestation measures.biodiversity; forest potential; management; durability.

FUNDAMENTAL CRITERIA IN A MANAGEMENT PLAN OF A PROTECTED AREA

The protected areas are considered among the most effective means for conservation of biological diversity, which is highlighted in the article 8 of the Convention on Biological Diversity. The historical approach to the process of nature protection in Romania reveals the existence of several stages, among which the establishment and organization of protected areas play an important role. In this respect, protected areas can become systems in which human activities are managed to allow maintaining of structure and function a full range of ecosystems, in order to provide benefits for present and future generations.
