Similarities and Differences in Policies and Practices for the Acquisition of English as a Second Language: A Comparative Study of Sweden and Vietnam

The paper highlights differences in approaches to teaching English as a second language for primary school children (grade 5) in Sweden and Vietnam. The paper will draw on data collected from classroom, teachers and curriculum on English teaching that reflect the policy of English teaching in the two countries,. Implications for national policies and classroom practices for teaching and learning o

Understanding the leadership role of the board chairperson through a team production approach

Current corporate governance recommendations – rooted in an investor-based shareholder supremacy model – often narrowly discuss the issue of board leadership as whether or not there is a separation of the CEO and chairperson positions. In this article we employ a team production approach to better understand the leadership role of the board chairperson. We argue that effective board performance is

Virginia Woolf: Resisting the Sovereignty Trap

Looking principally at Michel Foucault’s ‘Governmentality’ (1978), my central claim is that it is possible to read in Virginia Woolf’s fiction the anticipation of a post-structuralist politics of difference which distances itself from outmoded political thinking. Woolf’s fiction runs counter to the dominant ‘grand-narrative’ of sovereignty which conceives of governance as a unified and centralised

Numerical Simulation of Fluid Flow in a Monolithic Exchanger Related to High Temperature and High Pressure Operating Conditions

The purpose of this work is the enhancement of performance by a new design of monolithic heat exchangers under steady-state operating conditions. Heat transfer phenomena and hydrodynamics have been studied and visualized by computational fluid dynamics (CFD). Further, a simple gas distribution system has been analyzed in purpose to find best performance of the exchanger. To achieve this, 3D simula

Charged particle production in high Q^2 deep-inelastic scattering at HERA

The average charged track multiplicity and the normalised distribution of the scaled momentum, xp, of charged final state hadrons are measured in deep-inelastic ep scattering at high Q2 in the Breit frame of reference. The analysis covers the range of photon virtuality Click to view the MathML source. Compared with previous results presented by HERA experiments this analysis has a significantly hi
