背景与目的:教师职业是世界上压力最大的职业之一。本研究以随机抽取的150名公立大学教师(男、女)为研究对象,对教师的工作满意度进行测评。方法:本研究采用描述性研究。数据收集采用问卷调查和直接访谈。问卷在海德拉巴的八所(8)四所男生和四所女生政府学院中分发。本次调查的样本量为150人。研究时间为一年,即2014年8月- 2015年8月。问卷是根据影响被调查者满意度的各种因素编制的。结果与结论:教师对自己的工作不满意主要是因为晋升考虑的因素是对教师和工作场所完全不满意,培训和培训结果仅是教师满意的问题。在薪酬问题上,教师们非常不满。组织在晋升和薪酬方面的公平正义是一个严重的问题。它经常干扰管理决策,妨碍纪律和秩序。根据调查结果,建议改变一些现行的战略,在晋升、晋升和薪酬制度中保持公正和正直的情况下,必须取代某些旧的战略。通过因子分析确定的因素还需要进一步研究。

The primary purpose of this study was to enhance students’ class participation in the case of second year tourism management students registered for ‘research methods in tourism’. In order to accomplish research objectives, data were collected from the second year tourism management students. All second yeartourism management students registered for the course research method in tourism were the participants of the study; the total numbers of the students are 65 but out of this 51 questionnaires were correctly filled and returned. Both qualitative and quantitative approaches were employed with descriptive research design. Self-administered questionnaire, 5 FGD having 12 members and observations for some sessions were used to collect the data. The reported instruments were prepared in English and they include both open ended and close ended type of questions; open ended questionnaires were prepared not to limit respondent’s idea. Once the data collection stage was over, collected responses were organized in the form of tables by using percentage and Chi-square analysis. The result revealed that student’s level ofparticipation is highly affected by different factors such as in advance preparation, delivery of teaching material in advance, applying different active teaching methods by the instructor, availability of different rewarding means, mixing low achievers with medium and high achievers, language and student self-confidence. As a result, majority of the students (86.3%) have positive attitude on active participation since they believed that active participation will help them to share new ideas with their friends. Though some students are still inactive perhaps due to different psychological and personal factors that need further investigation; the actions implemented also bring some important changes that enhanced students’ class participation.
本研究以旅游管理专业二年级学生为研究对象,以提高学生的课堂参与度为主要目的。为了完成研究目的,本研究收集了旅游管理专业二年级学生的数据。本研究以旅游研究方法课程注册的旅游管理二年级学生为研究对象;学生总数为65人,但其中51份问卷正确填写并返回。定性和定量方法均采用描述性研究设计。收集数据的方法是采用自我管理问卷、5个由12名成员组成的FGD和对一些会议的观察。报告的文书是用英文编写的,其中包括开放式和封闭式问题;开放式问卷是为了不限制受访者的想法而准备的。一旦数据收集阶段结束,通过使用百分比和卡方分析将收集到的回答以表格的形式组织起来。结果表明,学生的参与程度受到提前准备、教材提前发放、教师采用不同的主动教学方法、不同奖励手段的可获得性、低、中、高学生混合、语言和学生自信等因素的高度影响。因此,大多数学生(86.3%)对积极参与持积极态度,因为他们认为积极参与可以帮助他们与朋友分享新的想法。虽然有些学生可能由于不同的心理和个人因素仍然不活跃,需要进一步调查;实施的行动也带来了一些重要的变化,提高了学生的课堂参与度。

Packaged Drinking Water - A Trivial Necessity, a Study in Kolkata, India 包装饮用水——微不足道的必需品,印度加尔各答的一项研究
Pub Date : 2016-02-22 DOI: 10.4172/2169-0286.1000121

Water, the most essential element of life is free in nature along with air. About 70% of earth’s surface is covered with water but only 3% of world’s water is fresh. 2% is frozen in the polar ice caps and glaciers and 1% is ground water. Only 0.02% is freshwater lakes and rivers. As the world population increased due to urbanization and industrialization, the demand for water kept rising but the quality kept deteriorating. Water scarcity afflicted many nations and access to clean drinking water and sanitation became difficult. The contrast between tap water and bottled water reflects the contest for authority and public trust between governments and corporations. Packaged drinking water industry has grown in all the developed economics of the world. The product is targeted especially at touring and traveling market segments. The growth of this industry can be due to contamination/shortage of water supply in the cities. The demand for consumption of packaged water in India is estimated at 500 million liters of pure water bottles and the market is expected to grow at a rate of 25-35% per annum.
水,生命中最基本的元素,和空气一样,在大自然中是免费的。大约70%的地球表面被水覆盖,但世界上只有3%的水是淡水。2%是冻结在极地冰盖和冰川中,1%是地下水。只有0.02%是淡水湖泊和河流。随着城市化和工业化的发展,世界人口不断增加,对水的需求不断增加,但水质却不断恶化。水资源短缺困扰着许多国家,获得清洁饮用水和卫生设施变得很困难。自来水和瓶装水的对比反映了政府和企业之间对权威和公众信任的争夺。包装饮用水工业在世界上所有发达国家都有发展。该产品特别针对旅游和旅游细分市场。这个行业的增长可能是由于城市供水的污染/短缺。印度对包装水的消费需求估计为5亿升纯净水瓶,预计市场将以每年25-35%的速度增长。

It is also found that personal and family contacts are a prevalent instrument used in finding a job for those people who lacks competitiveness in hiring practices [3]. The rural workers’ social resources in urban areas are very limited and therefore they usually follow their relatives or fellow-villagers who move to the cities earlier. A research found that around 80% of the female migrant workers in Shanghai hotel industry found their jobs through the personal networks in the city [4].
研究还发现,个人和家庭关系是那些在招聘实践中缺乏竞争力的人找工作时普遍使用的工具。农民工在城市的社会资源非常有限,因此他们通常跟随较早进城的亲戚或老乡进城。一项研究发现,在上海酒店业工作的女性农民工中,约有80%是通过城市关系网找到工作的。

The objective of this research is to find out the impact of personality type of an employee on his job productivity. A survey of 10,000 individuals was conducted from different cities to elucidate the associations between organizational goals and a number of intra-organizational variables. In this research, author found that there are many factors which affect the employee performance and which are either affected by employee’s performance or employee’s performance is affected by them. Among those factors, personality of an employee plays an important role. The findings of the study also have numerous implications for practitioners. At a strategic level, the study suggests that executives should acknowledge in their change processes that decisions at an organizational level regarding the personality of an employee could have a profound effect on the productivity of an employee. Further, managers of functions may find it beneficial to manipulate a range of intra-organizational variables to enhance employee productivity.
本研究的目的是找出员工的人格类型对其工作效率的影响。我们对来自不同城市的1万人进行了调查,以阐明组织目标与一些组织内部变量之间的关系。在本研究中,笔者发现影响员工绩效的因素有很多,这些因素要么受到员工绩效的影响,要么受到员工绩效的影响。在这些因素中,员工的个性起着重要的作用。这项研究的发现对从业人员也有许多启示。在战略层面上,研究表明,高管们应该承认,在他们的变革过程中,组织层面上关于员工个性的决策可能会对员工的生产力产生深远的影响。此外,职能经理可能会发现它有利于操纵一系列组织内变量,以提高员工的生产力。

Hotel sector is one of the most influenced by the new information and communication technologies (ICTs) since it generates a vast amount of information which circulates through these new technologies. Additionally, the latter could be a potential source of organizational performance. This paper has an exploratory character and analyses how the new ICTs influence the hotels’ organizational performance. Thus, a descriptive statistical analysis and a study of statistical associations through Cramer’s V have been carried out using data from 106 Valencian Community hotel establishments. The results show, on the one hand, that Internet and Intranet are the most influential technologies on intra-organizational level and, on the other hand, show that the Central Reservation Systems -CRS- and web 2.0 are the most important on an inter-organizational level. Both technologies affect most of the analysed results at organizational level.
酒店业是受新信息和通信技术(ict)影响最大的行业之一,因为它产生了大量的信息,这些信息通过这些新技术传播。此外,后者可能是组织绩效的潜在来源。本文具有探索性,分析了新型信息通信技术对酒店组织绩效的影响。因此,使用106家瓦伦西亚社区酒店机构的数据,通过克莱默V进行描述性统计分析和统计关联研究。结果表明,Internet和Intranet技术对组织内部的影响最大,而Central Reservation Systems (crs)和web 2.0技术对组织内部的影响最大。这两种技术都会在组织层面上影响大多数分析结果。

Nowadays, firms try to comprehend crucial factors impacting on consumer behaviour to sustain themselves in the market. Although these factors may vary and depend on many external and internal environmental influences this study examines the role of branding, promotion and sub-culture in influencing the consumption of breakfast cereals in Thailand through a qualitative, interpretive approach using as a case study Kellogg’s a well-known international cereal breakfast company. Grounded theory used to analyse findings suggests: branding influences consumer’s purchase decision making in Thailand while age is a contributing factor to consumers’ choices and especially with reference to breakfast cereals. Hence it is important that firms keep adjusting their marketing strategy in line with the changing consumption patterns if they want to keep themselves ahead of the game.
如今,企业试图了解影响消费者行为的关键因素,以维持自己在市场上的生存。尽管这些因素可能会有所不同,并取决于许多外部和内部环境的影响,本研究通过定性的,解释性的方法,以家乐氏为例,考察了品牌,促销和亚文化在影响泰国早餐谷物消费中的作用。家乐氏是一家知名的国际谷物早餐公司。分析发现的理论表明:品牌影响泰国消费者的购买决策,而年龄是影响消费者选择的一个因素,尤其是在早餐麦片方面。因此,如果企业想要保持领先地位,就必须不断调整营销策略,以适应不断变化的消费模式。

Leveraging Sustainability Certification in Canada's Urban Hotel Markets 利用加拿大城市酒店市场的可持续发展认证
Pub Date : 2015-04-15 DOI: 10.4172/2169-0286.1000112

The greening of the hotel industry has been identified as important to the industry for a multitude of reasons. Most importantly, being identified as a green property may lead to enhanced profits. Milton Friedman’s 1962 property rights argument, the theoretical framework used in this study, stated the sole purpose of an organization such as a hotel is profit. Conveying a property’s green qualities is difficult though. Certification has been identified as one important method for conveying a property’s green attributes. Yet, the role green certification can play in a hotel’s profit is not known. This study seeks to identify the profits gained from earning a specific green certification: Green Key Global. This certification program is North America’s most popular with more than 3,000 participating hotels. The data used to make inferences regarding profitability stemming from Green Key certification has been gleamed from recent STR and HVS data. The data focuses on the largest hotel markets in Canada: Toronto, Montreal, and Vancouver. The upper upscale and luxury properties in this city are compared using STR metrics (e.g. occupancy, supply, demand, Rev PAR, and ADR).
由于多种原因,酒店业的绿化已被确定为对该行业很重要。最重要的是,被认定为绿色物业可能会增加利润。米尔顿·弗里德曼(Milton Friedman) 1962年提出的产权理论是本研究使用的理论框架,该理论指出,酒店等组织的唯一目的是盈利。然而,传达一个物业的绿色品质是困难的。认证已被确定为传达一个财产的绿色属性的一个重要方法。然而,绿色认证在酒店利润中所起的作用尚不清楚。这项研究旨在确定从获得一个特定的绿色认证中获得的利润:全球绿色钥匙。这个认证项目是北美最受欢迎的,有3000多家酒店参与其中。用于推断绿钥匙认证的盈利能力的数据来自最近的STR和HVS数据。这些数据主要集中在加拿大最大的酒店市场:多伦多、蒙特利尔和温哥华。使用STR指标(例如入住率、供应、需求、Rev PAR和ADR)对该城市的高档和豪华物业进行比较。

Most importantly, being identified as a green property may lead to enhanced profits. Milton Friedman’s 1962 property rights argument, the theoretical framework used in this study, stated the sole purpose of an organization such as a hotel is profit. Conveying a property’s green qualities is difficult though. Certification has been identified as one important method for conveying a property’s green attributes. Yet, the role green certification can play in a hotel’s profit is not known. This study seeks to identify the profits gained from earning a specific green certification: Green Key Global. This certification program is North America’s most popular with more than 3,000 participating hotels. The data used to make inferences regarding profitability stemming from Green Key certification has been gleamed from recent STR and HVS data.

The exploration of biological polymer is a new interest due to its favorable properties used in biomedical and clinical applications. Within the used biopolymer, cellulose emerged as a most exploitable functional material at nanoscale. Working with nanosize cellulose, provides some additional advantages compare to other manmade functional polymers. The fabrication of cellulosic scaffold as a platform for growth and development of cells is a thrust area of tissue engineering but this fabricated scaffold needs to have some fundamental prerequisite before implantation in donor. Thus, this short report discusses about the NC based scaffolds for the growth and development of cells and tissue. The main focus is on derived wood and microbial NCs. Thereafter; some interesting examples will be discussed to understand the necessity of cellulose-based supports in tissue engineering field.
生物聚合物由于其在生物医学和临床方面的良好性能而成为一个新的研究方向。在使用的生物聚合物中,纤维素成为纳米级最具开发价值的功能材料。与其他人造功能性聚合物相比,纳米级纤维素提供了一些额外的优势。制备纤维素支架作为细胞生长和发育的平台是组织工程学的一个前沿领域,但这种制备的支架在植入供体之前需要具备一些基本的先决条件。因此,这篇简短的报告讨论了基于NC的支架用于细胞和组织的生长和发育。主要关注的是衍生木材和微生物NCs。之后;本文将讨论一些有趣的例子,以了解纤维素基支架在组织工程领域的必要性。
