I have learned how to evaluate these sources effectively in order for them to support my work. Knowing the motive behind the page and its information will help me judge the credibility of its content in the future. I now know how important it is to use the same evaluation techniques for internet sources as I would for a book or journal article. I have discovered the importance of acknowledging the work of others, and now have a clear understanding of how an online source is used, whether it be scholarly or non scholarly. I now have more confidence in terms of using online literature as a part of an assessment.
She is the iconic womanly figure of what woman strive to be and she embodies the vision of earthly love. Modern day marketing companies use her name on products, in an effort to project an air of seduction, beauty and allure. In relation to Landau’s book, I personally asked plenty of my male friends for statistical research off course, asking what they think the best feature of a woman is. Not surprisingly, most men stated that one of the best features of a woman are

“The construction of gender stereotyping of both males and females in the media is based on outdated and unfounded beliefs and therefore has had and continues to have a detrimental impact on society.” (Yes!) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CUyfD1F7k1I Women are subjected to many stereotypes in today’s society. Movies and television shows suggest that all women are airheads, whose sole purpose in life is to please men and rear children. Magazines and other advertisements push photographs of very slender, over groomed and “sexy women” into our minds. Men’s magazines write articles on how to seduce a girl into sleeping with them.

Their studies are briefly described below. Nonetheless, the continual study on digital literacy in bilingual higher education setting is needed technology facilitates instruction in which elements such as language and culture are involved (Akhtar, Iqpal & Hussain, 2010) as in the case of bilingual education. The suitable use of technology, especially computers, and the Internet, provides with opportunities to support students to improve their language proficiency both inside and outside the classroom (Akhtar, Iqpal & Hussain,
Churchill’s lead character in the play is paradoxically a female misogynist who takes on a stereotypically male business persona who climbs to the top of the corporate ladder. Churchill also offers an interesting take on female pageantry, Post-Feminism of the 1980s, the “New Wave” of Feminism, and English feminism and capitalism under Margaret Thatcher’s rule, as well as family values and the ease and ability to climb the corporate ladder with a child. Churchill has openly acknowledged that Margaret Thatcher’s rise to the position of British primeminster was an important inspiration for writing Top Girls. Churchill is deeply interested in feminism and the constant consequences of the women’s liberation movement. There was a certain irony in Margaret Thatcher’s ascent to power in the wake of feminism, since Thatcher’s policies were deeply conservative and anti-feminist.
The availability of reliable high speed internet, quality video and audio software are some of the driving forces behind the success of e-learning initiative across the world. The University could significantly expand their reach by offering courses online to students and organizations in need of training or certification. I would not recommend the e-business model as complementary revenue generating business channel with it main purpose to grow the company’s business and not to cannibalize existing business models. The distance education e-business model would significantly increase revenue by allowing delivery to wider audience while saving on costs such as electricity, water, security, furniture etc. Business model in online education are normally developed around one or more of the following business fields: E2B Education to Business (Corporate E-learning) E2E = Education to Education, University professors other educational institutions E2C = Education to Consumers (E-Learning focusing on the private sector) In addition to generating revenue from online education delivery the school could also benefit from offering advertising slots on their e-learning site.
Learning Analytics focuses attention on tools and technologies in order to investigate the data coming from different educational contexts such as online learning environments (Dyckhoff, Zielke, Bültmann, Chatti, & Schroeder, 2012) to enhance teachers’ perspectives on how learning is happening. Especially, MOOCs offer certain demands and dilemmas that become accepted as a challenge practice in Learning Analytics approaches (Clow, 2013). An open learning environment such as MOOCs, afford an “exciting opportunity” for the Learning Analytics researchers (Chatti et al., 2014). They play a role as a part of the online learning phenomenon where large quantities of data sets are generated, induced by users who access platforms of the kind. These result in activities which are stored in servers and remain meaningless until they are analyzed.
