To achieve this goal, the first step was empirically examining the effectiveness of such a PD using quantitative methods. We then examined which adaptations were made in the imported PD and at…

The research was conducted to study and develop a Green University using Cloud based Internet of Things model for energy saving. The aims of this study were 1) to study and design 2) to evaluate a model of Green University using Cloud based Internet of Things for energy saving. There are two phases of the research method. The first phase included…

A hermeneutic-communicative model of religious education is proposed which is grounded in a Christian anthropology. The human person is presented as a 'fragile hermeneutical space'--consisting of a radical openness to reality, an essential indeterminateness and an ability to transcend his or her own reality. This means that people have an inbuilt…
