Child abuse can be curbed in the Muslim Arab World, since preventive measures are really in our hands. They are actually a part of a binding force that impacts almost each and every step we take in life; that force is simply Islam: our religion, which does not only define our relationship with God (Allah) Almighty but is also in actuality a way of life. This book makes the argument that a culture in which true or authentic Islamic values are rightly implemented measures up to being one that safeguards and recognizes the rights granted to children by no one other than their merciful and gracious creator Allah. It also proposes a practical framework that explains the types of measures, cultural changes, and structural modifications needed to be implemented to combat child abuse in the Muslim Arab World, with all the religious, cultural, and social specificities of it as a region.
In the last decade, due to factors of ICT infrastructural and broadband maturation, rising levels of educational attainment and computer literacy, and diversification strategies, e-learning has exploded in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region. However, significant barriers remain in the region’s e-learning development: lack of research on outcomes and effectiveness, paucity of Arabic language learning objects, monopolies and high cost of telecommunications, cultural taboos, accreditation, censorship, and teacher training. This unique volume is the first comprehensive effort to describe the history, development, and current state of e-learning in each of the 20 MENA countries from...
Before the readers of this book are 25 interviews with renowned poets from all over the world, of all generations. The book Modern Talks on Poetry was created as a result of my journalistic work in the period from 2019 to 2022. What particularly inspired me to publish this book is the idea that poetry played a very significant role during the pandemic, primarily in a psychological sense, because many people turned to writing poetry during the lockdown, as a kind of creative therapy. With this book, I would like to pay tribute to poetry as a unique form of artistic and linguistic expression and to all the poets of this world.

The book ‘Stranded in Poetic Reflections’ is a collection of poems that Dr. Nina Abdul Razzak wrote over a number of years. Stylistically, the poems are diverse, where many of them are of the free verse type, either with or without a rhyming scheme. There are also a few poems that could count as ballads, such as “Hopeless but Happy”, “Like a Rainbow”, and “Revival”. A couple of odes are also included within the collection, such as the poem “The Loving Mother: Powerful but Tender” and the poem “The Dead Sea”. While the poem “I Stand by Your Grave”, which she dedicated in memory of her lost father, comes close to being an elegy. The poems are varied in focus; however, they are all grounded in the poet’s real-life experiences. Additionally, every poem highlights the poet’s personal reflections on a topic of significance to humans in general, such as: love and forgiveness, happiness, illness, motherhood, existence, old age, relationships, and the like. Dr. Abdul Razzak hopes that through her poems readers will relate to her experiences and ideas and will be inspired to themselves reflect on things that matter most in life.
This book is the result of a collaboration between a human editor and an artificial intelligence algorithm to create a machine-generated literature overview of research articles analyzing importance of critical thinking in Educational Settings. It’s a new publication format in which state-of-the-art computer algorithms are applied to select the most relevant articles published in Springer Nature journals and create machine-generated literature reviews by arranging the selected articles in a topical order and creating short summaries of these articles. This book is a comprehensive guide to critical thinking research in education. It explores different definitions of critical thinking and its importance in specialized fields like business, engineering, and science. Presenting research on assessment, this resource delves into the integration of ICT tools for teaching critical thinking. With practical tools, strategies and tasks to develop critical thinking skills, this book is intended for researchers, educators, and those seeking to improve their critical thinking abilities.
Teachers are in the eyes of many the essential ingredient of success fueling educational development. The advancement of teaching and learning standards, both inside and outside of the classroom, hinges upon the effective participation of teachers in the relevant professional development programs being implemented in schools worldwide. In this regard, a number of valuable lessons can be learned from the experiences of countries that boast widely respected, modern education systems. Such lessons can subsequently be utilized to the advantage of other nations, including the GCC states, which are actively exploring a number of potential avenues in view of bolstering their respective teacher trai...
The book is divided into two sections. The first section presents characterization of atmospheric aerosols and their impact on regional climate from East Asia to the Pacific. Ground-based, air-born, and satellite data were collected and analyzed. Detailed information about measurement techniques and atmospheric conditions were provided as well. In the second section, authors provide detailed information about the organic and inorganic constituents of atmospheric aerosols. They discuss the chemical and physical processes, temporal and spatial distribution, emissions, formation, and transportation of aerosol particles. In addition, new measurement techniques are introduced. This book hopes to serve as a useful resource to resolve some of the issues associated with the complex nature of the interaction between atmospheric aerosols and climatology.
Saudi Arabia is witnessing unprecedented progress in the field of higher education. Even though the country opened its first university in 1957, so far there seems to be little English scholarly writing about Saudi education in general and higher education in particular. The current expansion of Saudi Arabia’s higher-education system has put a spotlight on this serious gap in the international literature. This book helps to fill this lacuna through the work of 16 scholars who have contributed to the development of the Saudi education system. In so doing, the book reveals areas where more research is required and thus provides a useful starting point for education scholars. This anthology is unique in that it is the first to offer a comprehensive perspective on the current knowledge base pertaining to Saudi higher education as well as to the ongoing efforts to introduce reforms.
