  edwin nahavandi: Enhancing Teaching and Learning Through Collaborative Structures Jeffrey L. Bernstein, Brooke A. Flinders, 2017-01-12 In this volume, the authors contend that teaching and learning must be viewed as communal work, whether conducted in one classroom, with colleagues at a programmatic level, or when tackled on a university-wide scale. When educators partner with faculty colleagues or students in teaching and learning, it becomes possible to improve the educational experiences of all students, model professional behaviors that students will soon be expected to embrace, and positively impact graduates, peers, campuses, and even communities at large. By intentionally creating collaborative structures for communal work to occur, educators can broaden access to opportunities for students, improve engagement experiences within the community, and improve faculty support and scholarship. Exploring multiple perspectives on collaborative structures in teaching and learning, this volume discusses ways to consider the collaborative structures within education that allow for shared contributions to teaching and learning. It discusses the need for practitioners to view teaching and learning as truly communal work, regardless of the type of setting. This is the 148th volume of this Jossey-Bass higher education series. It offers a comprehensive range of ideas and techniques for improving college teaching based on the experience of seasoned instructors and the latest findings of educational and psychological researchers.
  edwin nahavandi: Repenser le développement et la coopération internationale Firouzeh Nahavandi, 2003-01-01 Ce livre porte sur l'un des grands défis du XXIe siècle : les relations entre les pays occidentaux et ceux dits en voie de développement. Les attentats du 11 septembre 2001 ont mis en évidence de manière dramatique la nécessité d'une réflexion sur celles-ci. Pourtant cette dernière a eu lieu par le biais du développement dès la deuxième guerre mondiale. Toutefois, il est évident que depuis quelques années les certitudes et les croyances qui sous-tendaient la pensée du développement et alimentaient les politiques de coopération se sont ébranlées. C'est une évolution qui s'inscrit dans le désenchantement du développement et, au-delà, dans la dénonciation d'un certain économicisme et d'un ethnocentrisme qui ont caractérisé les approches traditionnelles. Les résultats mitigés de la coopération et son incapacité à combler le fossé qui sépare les pays développés des pays sous-développés , ont aussi fait l'objet de nombreuses critiques allant même jusqu'à prôner son abandon. Il est donc grand temps de regarder la réalité en face, de changer de lunettes et de poser les questions autrement. Les auteurs de cet ouvrage conjuguent la réflexion théorique avec une connaissance poussée des pays du Sud, tout en ayant un regard lucide et souvent critique sur le développement et/ou la coopération. Ils posent les jalons d'une réflexion sur les voies à emprunter à l'ère de la globalisation pour ne pas perpétuer les erreurs du passé.
  edwin nahavandi: Reinforcement Learning, second edition Richard S. Sutton, Andrew G. Barto, 2018-11-13 The significantly expanded and updated new edition of a widely used text on reinforcement learning, one of the most active research areas in artificial intelligence. Reinforcement learning, one of the most active research areas in artificial intelligence, is a computational approach to learning whereby an agent tries to maximize the total amount of reward it receives while interacting with a complex, uncertain environment. In Reinforcement Learning, Richard Sutton and Andrew Barto provide a clear and simple account of the field's key ideas and algorithms. This second edition has been significantly expanded and updated, presenting new topics and updating coverage of other topics. Like the first edition, this second edition focuses on core online learning algorithms, with the more mathematical material set off in shaded boxes. Part I covers as much of reinforcement learning as possible without going beyond the tabular case for which exact solutions can be found. Many algorithms presented in this part are new to the second edition, including UCB, Expected Sarsa, and Double Learning. Part II extends these ideas to function approximation, with new sections on such topics as artificial neural networks and the Fourier basis, and offers expanded treatment of off-policy learning and policy-gradient methods. Part III has new chapters on reinforcement learning's relationships to psychology and neuroscience, as well as an updated case-studies chapter including AlphaGo and AlphaGo Zero, Atari game playing, and IBM Watson's wagering strategy. The final chapter discusses the future societal impacts of reinforcement learning.

  edwin nahavandi: Human Resource Management and Internal Marketing Teena Mishra, 2022-12-30 This book explains various key concepts of internal marketing and its relation to human resource management, commitment, service quality, market orientation, etc. Various human resource models are insufficient to define internal marketing. Therefore there is a need to focus on the models and key concepts of human resource management and internal marketing and in what way they contribute to organizational success. It involves motivation, internal market research, internal communication, internal segmentation, employee retention, inter-functional coordination, and internal branding. The current need for human resource management is to link human resource management and marketing practices which are called internal marketing. Internal marketing plays an eminent role in organizational success. This book helps students, practitioners, start-ups, and educationists. This is a research monograph that will assist an organization to decide the future of human resource management as well as organizational development. This book is for marketing as well as human resource discipline, as internal marketing is the integration of marketing and human resource management. Due to new technology, globalization, and liberalization market need and demand are also changing, thus it is necessary to understand new trends in the application of human resources. Therefore, it is necessary to motivate and satisfy internal customers and make them market and skill-oriented.
  edwin nahavandi: Handbook of Research on Asian Business Henry Wai-Chung Yeung, 2007 This volume is excellent. Students who are interested in Asian business should read it and will find the comprehensive bibliography offered by the different contributors very helpful. In light of the recent global financial crises, it is time to re-examine the Asian miracles, as well as the Western models of business organizations and regulations. This volume offers great insights not just on Asian business but also on Western economies and business. It is also time to adopt an integrative approach recommended by Yeung through comparative research of businesses and economies in different institutions and cultures. Yifei Sun, Economic Geography An absolute must-have for college library reference shelves, filled cover-to-cover with keen analyses that any businessperson seeking to make inroads in an Asian market needs to study at length! Midwest Book Review This book serves as an important guide to the many fascinating research questions about Asian business waiting to be addressed. The study of Asian business has reached equality in importance to the study of business in Europe and North America. Researchers who study any of these regions have an incentive to follow the study of business in the other regions, if for no other reason than that many global firms from each region operate in all regions now. Nonetheless, the more important reason for knowledge transfer among researchers of each region is that these exchanges can only advance everyone s research. Henry Yeung and the contributors are to be thanked for setting out a rich agenda for research on Asian business that will elevate this study to equality with research elsewhere in the world. Eurasian Geography and Economics This book is extremely comprehensive and well researched. It will be of particular interest to scholars in the fields of international business, development studies, economic geography, regional studies as well as international and national policymakers. Science Technology & Society The rise of Asia as an important region for global business has been widely recognized as one of the most significant economic phenomena in the new millennium. This accessible and comprehensive Handbook brings together state-of-the-art reviews of Asian business in an expansive range of areas including: business organizations strategic management marketing state business relations business and development business policy issues. It is argued that whilst academic studies on Asian business have been in existence for over two decades, there is relatively little systematic integration of our knowledge and research on Asian business. The contributors, drawn from a variety of disciplines within the social sciences, aim to redress the balance with their lively, cutting-edge discussion. Serving as a timely overview of more than two decades of scholarly research, this Handbook will be an essential resource for academics, students and researchers interested in Asian business.

  edwin nahavandi: Jimmy Carter, the Liberal Left and World Chaos Mike Evans, 2009 He Ran Against An Unpopular War And President In The Name Of Change, Human Rights, And Hope. America's strongest Muslim ally whispered to his closest confidant, Who knows what sort of calamity he may unleash on the world? He provided political and financial sponsorship . . . checks of $150 million to Neauphle-le-Chateau outside Paris . . . while Khomeini plotted to kill the Shah of Iran and overthrow his nation. The French, British, and Germans agreed to support his plan. Can we Have Peace in the Holy Land? is there a Plan that will work? An Air France jet loaded with terrorists and journalists delivered Carter's holy man to Tehran. On April Fools Day 1980 Ayatollah Khomeini, the godfather of world terror, proclaimed the first day of the government of God, thus giving birth to what is now known as radical Islam. The fuse had been lit; the Russians invaded Afghanistan, and Iraq went to war with Iran, resulting in the deaths of over 2.3 million innocent Muslims. Bin Laden used the number of deaths in Iran, Iraq, and Afghanistan to justify his insane attack on 9/11. Carter poured $500 million into the Muslim Brotherhood, calling them freedom fighters. We now call them the Taliban and al Qaeda. On Inauguration Day 1980 shortly after 4:00 AM he wire-transferred $7.9 billion in an attempt to buy back the hostages after 444 days of humiliation. On Inauguration Day 2009 he released his Plan for Peace in the Holy Land to persuade President Obama to weaken Israel, America's strongest ally in the Middle East; support terror regimes that have murdered scores of Americans and Israelis; and heed the call to divide Jerusalem, giving East Jerusalem to the Palestinian Authority as its Islamic capital. This is an appeasement plan that will not solve the problems in the Holy L it will instead unify and embolden radical Islam once again. Book jacket.
