Developing a new English language program

Kapi‘olani Community College (KCC) has been offering a successful English as a Second Language (ESL) Program for many years. The college, however, does not offer an English language program designed for second language learners who are not academically-motivated. Should KCC develop such a non-academic English language program? Would it serve KCC’s mission, goals, and objectives? Another important question to ask is if there is enough market demand to support the program, and if so, what kind of program would meet the needs of the potential program participants? The purpose of this study is to try to answer these questions

Magnetospheric and Plasma Science with Cassini-Huygens

Magnetospheric and plasma science studies at Saturn offer a unique opportunity to explore in-depth two types of magnetospheres. These are an `induced' magnetosphere generated by the interaction of Titan with the surrounding plasma flow and Saturn's `intrinsic' magnetosphere, the magnetic cavity Saturn's planetary magnetic field creates inside the solar wind flow. These two objects will be explored using the most advanced and diverse package of instruments for the analysis of plasmas, energetic particles and fields ever flown to a planet. These instruments will make it possible to address and solve a series of key scientific questions concerning the interaction of these two magnetospheres with their environment.Peer Reviewedhttp://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/2027.42/43757/1/11214_2004_Article_5106942.pd
