Most Institutions of Higher Education (IHE) in Mexico have implemented ambitious tutoring programs since 2000 to face, among others, the problems of failing, dropping out and low terminal efficiency, as well as to contribute to the integral formation of students. The implementation of these programs has not been easy and the results obtained so far have been limited. One of the challenges to face is the training of teachers so that they can perform the role of tutors. In the present text, the results of a training proposal for tutors are analyzed following the principles of the Model for the Development and Evaluation of Academic Competencies (M-DECA), which seeks, from the reflection and self-evaluation of the participants, the rethinking of the Tutorial Action Plans (TAP) in a teacher training school for basic education in the city of Aguascalientes, Mexico. The program was offered in combined environments with the support of the Moodle platform, promoting the discussion and argumentation of the participants. The results show the awareness of the tutors about their role and the need to have better skills and possible ways to improve their tutorial action plan.

Waste amounts increased rapidly with economic growth. Not all of the waste generated are collected by municipalities due to their ‘limited’ capacity. Most of the formal waste collection are initiated, managed and operated by community (role of RTs/RWs). Almost of the cities in Indonesia rely on landfilling technology to dispose their waste collected. Land for new waste disposal sites for MSW is becoming difficult. Most of the landfilling process is open dumping. Improvement of waste management is a key focus of the strategy.Some cities may have set a goal of reducing the amount of waste recovery and waste disposed off at the final disposal site in a target year.To achieve this, the city needs to measure based on an action plan that includes both community-based activities and the city government’s efforts to increase waste collection, and to introduce waste separation at home and operation of an intermediate treatment facility for waste reduction. The focus of the strategy should be: 1.How to increase the waste collection rate and services and to improve its quality2.How to increase the waste recovery and to improve the quality of recyclable materials3.How to reduce the uncontrolled waste (and its ‘derivatives’) flows into environment

"The challenges facing postsecondary institutions in the twenty-first century include determining the future role of universities in the creation of new knowledge, mastering technology and using it appropriately, and establishing effective planning and monitoring processes (p. 221)." With this quote, Donald emphasizes the growing need for institutions of higher education to engage in self-evaluation and self assessment in order to determing their "raison d' etre" in relationship to learning.

The relevance of this issue is due to the fact that the events that began in the new Millennium in the global anti-corruption movement have further highlighted the important role of the fight against corruption in the business sector. A special role in combating corruption in the sphere at the global level is assigned to the Group of twenty — G20. In the course of the research, the author came to the conclusion that, quite positively, the functioning of the business sphere was affected by the adoption in November 12, 2010 in the city of In Seoul, the leaders of the G20 “Anti-corruption action Plan”, which for the first time openly called for a closer public-private partnership in the fight against corruption. Today, the G20 is a group of key countries with developed and emerging market economies. As major trading powers, the G20 has a special responsibility to prevent and combat corruption, create a legal and policy framework that promotes a clean business environment, and continue to assist countries in their efforts to build capacity to fight corruption. Today, the G20 sets a good example for many countries, international associations, and groups to fight corruption in business.

This paper asks how can we re-think and critically produce alternative ‘public’ spaces through translating forms of civic pedagogical tactics in Amman? Our neoliberal contemporary cities and political agendas, with its Arabic versions, have produced socially, spatially polarised and de-politized spaces. In fact, what we inhabit today are spaces that are pseudo public. Those spaces prompt critiquing the role of the architects, practitioners and architecture educators to intervene, mediate and response collectively. Trying to form a resistance to this problem, the responding approach is informed by reviewing and critiquing how architectural pedagogies are performed in Jordan, focusing on evaluating their civic engagement and the political and neoliberal influence. The paper then moves to focus on key relevant pedagogical models with envisioning the action plan that are adopted and tailored to the specific cultural, political and social context of Amman. This paper framework will start reflections from some critical pedagogical theories to evaluate and critique the current architectural pedagogical approaches in Amman-Jordan contexts and analysing the various actants such as political policies, civic interventions and processes that affect architecture education. Furthermore, it generates some important lessons and reflections from practices, such as the interventions used by Romanian architects in the 1980s, Pseudo Public Space Studio-UK, live projects-UK, triggering and resisting the challenges on civic practices. The study will conclude by proposing methodological framework for translating civic pedagogical tactics that prompt to provoke and draw the public attention towards the right to the city and its space, while resisting the challenges that are facing the context of Amman- Jordan. The process of translation is adopted and tailored to Amman-Jordan context, rather than imported and colonised. These tactics opened up possibilities and generated a new and alternative form of publicness, as well as a resilient and resistant community.

The ancient Romans famously distinguished between civic life in Rome and military matters outside the city—a division marked by the pomerium, an abstract religious and legal boundary that was central to the myth of the city's foundation. This book explores, by means of images and texts, how the Romans used social practices and public monuments to assert their capital's distinction from its growing empire, to delimit the proper realms of religion and law from those of war and conquest, and to establish and disseminate so many fundamental Roman institutions across three centuries of imperial rule. The book probes such topics as the appearance in the city of Romans in armor, whether in representation or in life, the role of religious rites on the battlefield, and the military image of Constantine on the arch built in his name. Throughout, the book reveals how, in these instances and others, the ancient ideology of crossing the pomerium reflects the efforts of Romans not only to live up to the ideals they had inherited, but also to reconceive their past and to validate contemporary practices during a time when Rome enjoyed growing dominance in the Mediterranean world. The book explores a problem faced by generations of Romans—how to leave and return to hallowed city ground in the course of building an empire.
