This research aimed to study the conditions for the success of the three excellent schools and use the findings to design a model for the development of excellent schools in Hunan, China. The quantitative data were gathered from the sample group of 392 teachers of the three schools, who filled out the 45-item questionnaires, while the qualitative data were from in-depth interviews with the three school principles. Quantitative data were analyzed by factor analysis, and qualitative interview data were analyzed by Grounded Theory. The findings from the questionnaire data analysis identified eight aspects that shaped a learning organization: 1) School policies and goals 2) Supportive Environment 3) Professional development 4) Collaboration 5) Strategies to adapt to changes 6) Leadership 7) Sharing vision 8) Information Technology. From the three principals’ interviews, six themes emerged: 1) Changes in all areas affecting education and Change-facing strategies 2) Choices of curricula and pedagogies 3) Successful ways to teacher development 4) Student preparation for the Future 5) Cooperation of all school stakeholders and 6) Focus on Innovations. Based on the findings, a recommended model for the schools which aim to become excellent schools has been proposed.

Healthcare is evident in the extensive use of digital technology and artificial intelligence (AI). Although one aim of technological development and application is to promote health equity, it can at the same time increase health disparities. An ethical framework is needed to analyze issues arising in the effort to promote health equity through digital technology and AI. Based on an analysis of ethical principles for the promotion of health equity, this research article aims to synthesize an ethical framework for analyzing issues related to the promotion of health equity through digital technology and AI. Results of the study showed a synthesized framework that comprises two main groups of ethical principles: general principles and principles of management. The latter is meant to serve the implementation of the former. The general principles comprise four core principles: Human Dignity, Justice, Non-maleficence, and Beneficence, covering major principles and minor principles. For example, the core principle of Human Dignity includes three major principles (Non-humanization, Privacy, and Autonomy), and two minor principles (Explicability and Transparency). Other core principles have their relevant major and minor principles. The principles of management can be categorized according to their goals to serve different core principles. An illustration of applying the ethical framework is offered through the analysis and categorization of issues solicited from experts in multidisciplinary workshops on digital technology, AI, and health equity.

The global pandemic has disrupted conventional higher education that relies on in-person instruction. Online instruction has largely replaced in-person instruction in regions where COVID-19 restrictions are firm. This study investigates teaching pattern effectiveness and ICT use support at Suranaree University of Technology (SUT). The data were collected from 377 students and 217 teachers via online questionnaires. The Multivariate Analysis of Covariance (MANCOVA) and the Tukey-HSD method were able to identify significant trends in teaching approaches and ICT usage affecting both teaching and learning achievements. The results showed that effective teaching techniques included (1) Pre-recorded teaching videos as the main process at medium usage (average at 51.92% of teaching time) combined with (2) F2F live teaching and/or (3) Homework and assignments at low usage (average at 28.14% and 26.28% of teaching time, respectively). The ICT with significant impacts on teaching achievement were (1) ICT for communication i.e., Zoom Meeting and (2) ICT for classroom participation specifically Google forms. These teaching approaches and ICT usages patterns may support student were achievement and thus their learning during the global COVID-19 pandemic.

Abstract:In Sabah, Malaysia, Indigenous communities continue to demand greater visibility and representation from the government. Citing the lack of political will, indigenes struggle to maintain their indigeneity and heritage, especially when it is so closely tied to place and possession, affecting their livelihoods and cultural practices. This becomes more precarious for Indigenous maritime communities, whose affinity with the sea is viewed by the Malaysian state as dangerous and inhospitable because of the sea's fluid and motile nature. Set against the 2018 general elections and after, this paper unpacks narratives of survival, heritage and identity of Indigenous maritime residents.

Abstract:In the Philippines there is a stark disconnect between the static notion of indigeneity legalized by the state and an emic concept employed by Indigenous peoples themselves. This paper explores indigeneity as operationalized by the Higaunon of Mindanao, one of the island's many Lumad or indigenous groups. Higaunons conceptualize 'indigeneity' as determined by ancestral pedigrees tied strongly to place and geography, and according to the precedence of founding ancestors, whose direct descendants are recognized universally as being 'more indigenous' than others. In the Higaunon case, indigeneity is a modern legal concept with both national and global pretensions, as well as a deeply embedded, pre-existing, highly localized cultural concept that overrides all other considerations. While efforts at poverty alleviation have seen Higaunons emphasize community unity, this indigenous/emic notion of indigeneity continues to intervene where ancestral precedence is at risk of being superseded by 'universal'/etic notions of indigeneity that romanticize an egalitarian ethic and cultural inclination towards democratization. In Mindanao, at least, indigeneity as a working concept depends heavily on how such disconnects are negotiated and reconciled with respect to codes of national and customary law.

Abstract:The limited literature on Myanmar that touches on aspects of silence often associates it with hierarchies of authority, but silence can also be revealing of hierarchies of privilege. Drawing on Walton's theorization of Burman-ness as Whiteness and photo-elicitation interviews with twenty young Myanmar citizens, this paper illustrates how Burman structures of privilege manifested empirically in the silence around ethnicity in Burman participants' identity narratives. I argue that similar to Whiteness, Burman participants' silence around their ethnicity demonstrates the invisibility of Burman-ness as the natural condition. It is critical to overturn these silences if Burmans are to work against systemic racism and in support of ethnic reconciliation.
