...Fostering CSR in Primary Education: The Synergeia Experience Summary of Important Facts Synergeia is a nonprofit organization that envisions to improve the quality of primary education in the Philippines. It started 2001, when it was initially backed by Ford Foundation which was headquartered in the United States. It expanded to over 200 towns by partnering with international and local donors, local governments, non-government organizations (NGOs), parents and teachers. The 2004-2005 National Achievement Test (NAT) showed that 74 percent or around 1.1 million students lacked mastery of the English language. 25 countries were ranked in 2003, and the Philippines stood almost at the bottom. That is quite bothering since we are known to use English as our second language. Our Asian neighbors namely Singapore, Hong Kong, Japan and Chinese Taipei are in the Top 4, even outperforming the United States, Australia and Canada. It is believed that the weak foundation of the students in the primary school was the main reason for this underperformance. It is also believed that the teaching skills of the teachers have to be improved in order to reverse the decline in competitiveness of the country’s primary education. Another vital reason is the lack of government support. The country’s annual budget for education has continued to decline. While the country is doing this, other nations have continued to increase their allocation for education but as much as 10 times. This perhaps is a...

...to know literature itself rather than what has been written about literature. The second is to interpret literature both personally and historically, that is, to show how a great book generally reflects not only the author's life and thought but also the spirit of the age and the ideals of the nation's history. The third aim is to show, by a study of each successive period, how our literature has steadily developed from its first simple songs and stories to its present complexity in prose and poetry. To carry out these aims we have introduced the following features: (1) A brief, accurate summary of historical events and social conditions in each period, and a consideration of the ideals which stirred the whole nation, as in the days of Elizabeth, before they found expression in literature. (2) A study of the various literary epochs in turn, showing what each gained from the epoch preceding, and how each aided in the development of a national literature. (3) A readable biography of every important writer, showing how he lived and worked, how he met success or failure, how he influenced his age, and how his age influenced him. (4) A study and analysis of every author's best works, and of many of the books required for college-entrance examinations. (5)...

Sol–gels are chemically inert, stable and homogeneous and can be designed to act as a reservoir for releasing antimicrobial agents over extended time periods. In the present study, silver nitrate (AgN) and a series of silver coumarin complexes based on coumarin-3-carboxylatosilver (AgC) and it is 6, 7 and 8 hydroxylated analogues (Ag6, Ag7, Ag8) were incorporated into sol–gel coatings. The comparative antibacterial activity of the coatings was determined against meticillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and multidrug resistance Enterobacter cloacae WT6. The percentage growth inhibitions were found in the range of 9.2 (±2.7)–66.0 (±1.2)% at low silver loadings of 0.3% (w/w) with E. cloacae being the more...

...WHAT IS NOVEL? A Novel is prose narrative of considerable length and some complexity that deals imaginatively (fictional) with human experiences (near to life) through a connected sequence of events involving a group of persons in a specific setting. Previously it was known as fictional narrative or narrative prose. ( A Narrative opens “in media res”. This means it opens usually with the hero at his lowest point “in the middle of things”, earlier portions of the story appear later as flashbacks..) Main characterstics of novels are theme, plot or setting, structure, action or events in a sequence, strong characterization and expressive language. The genre of extended prose fiction or narrative fictional prose i.e. novel is rooted in the tradition of medieval "romances" or the heroic romance in prose. The term ‘roman or romance’ linked fictions back to the histories that had appeared in the Romance language of 11th and 12th-century southern France. The typical Arthurian romance became a fashion in the late 12th century. The unexpected and peculiar adventures surprised the audience in romances like Sir Gawain and the Green Knight (c. 1380).The romance had become a stable generic term by the beginning of the 13th century, as in the Roman de la Rose (c. 1230), famous today in English through Geoffrey Chaucer's late 14th-century translation. Chaucer's Troilus and Criseyde (1380–87) is a late example of this European fashion. Prose narrators wrote narrative patterns as employed...
