O projeto, que conjuga uma abordagem qualitativa com uma abordagem quantitativa, e integra instrumentos e técnicas diversificadas, iniciou-se a 16 de março de 2020 e vai decorrer até 31 de março de 2021.No presente artigo vamos lançar um olhar sobre seis meses de notícias nos 308 municípios portugueses. A análise efetuada permite-nos afirmar,ainda que provisoriamente, queo fluxo de notícias nos websites dos municípios está em linha com o pouco peso estratégico que a cultura tem em muitas das dinâmicas das políticas municipais, tendo sido possível identificar um número residual de medidas das autarquias locais para a mitigação, a curto e médio prazos, dos impactos negativos nas organizações e profissionais do setor cultural.IMPACTS OF COVID-19 ON THE PORTUGUESE CULTURAL SECTOR: how did the 308 municipalities react to the pandemic?AbstractPOLOBS is conducting a research that focuses on the identification and examination of some of the impacts of COVID-19 on the Portuguese cultural sector. Beginning on the 16th of March 2020 and ending on the 31st of March 2021, this project combines qualitative and quantitative approaches and accommodates different tools and techniques. In this article we are going to take a look at six months of news in the 308 Portuguese municipalities. The analysis carried out allows us to affirm, even provisionally, that the flow of news on the websites of the municipalities is in line with the little strategic weight that culture has in many of the dynamics of municipal policies, and it was possible to identify a residual number of measures of the local authorities to mitigate, in the short and medium term, the negative impacts on organizations and professionals in the cultural sector.Keywords: COVID-19.

This study evaluated the adapted science and mathematics books for students with visual impairment in inclusive classrooms in Tanzania secondary schools. It was conducted in 14 regions using qualitative and quantitative approaches. Data were generated from a sample of 19 heads of school, 103 students, and 77 teachers. The findings of the study show that the books are appropriate for students with visual impairment. However, they lacked enough tactile illustrations and pictures. Further findings revealed that lack of braille knowledge among some teachers limited them from using the books. As such, a few teachers who had braille knowledge had started to use the books while those with limited knowledge did not. Most teachers reported lack of appropriate pedagogy for handling special needs in inclusive classrooms. Therefore, although the books are appropriate, a lot needs to be desired in building teachers’ capacity to use the books. Various inclusive methodological knowledge to teachers needs to be ensured. Furthermore, the books must be improved to include more tactile graphics and pictures to make them more reader-friendly for students with visual impairment. Other educational books, including three-dimensional (3D) models, should be part of the adapted books.

This study seeks to examine the overall efforts undertaken by Nepal to activate the South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation (SAARC), particularly after the indefinite postponement of its 19th Summit that was scheduled to take place in Islamabad, Pakistan, on November 9-10, 2016. As a strong proponent of regionalism and regional cooperation, Nepal’s position has always been making the regional body vibrant and result-oriented; and Nepal has been relentlessly working for the same since its very inception. Much has been written about SAARC and Nepal, still very little literature is available that sincerely digs out the concrete efforts made by Nepal to strengthen the SAARC process. Therefore, this study tries to fulfill this gap. Additionally, this aims to make policy prescriptions for the revival and strengthening of SAARC. The study consists of both primary and secondary data collected from books, seminar papers, policy briefs and newspapers. It applies both qualitative and quantitative approaches while analysing Nepal’s efforts in strengthening the SAARC process.

This study aims to analyze Layla Al-Atrash’s Nesa’a Ala Al-Mafareq stylistically to address the issue of an identity crisis and self-alienation by shedding light on the Arabic narrative discourse that is used by Al-Atrash in the selected novel. The stylistic analysis focuses on casting lights on how the five protagonists of the selected novel employed their feminist narrative discourse to represent their suffering and how the old cultural and social values affect their lives. To achieve the aim of the study, the researcher relies on Geffrey Leech's (2006) theory of figurative language to analyze the novel. Accordingly, this study is considered as the first study focusing on analyzing the language used by Al-Atrash linguistically in light of the stylistic analysis of figurative speech such as a simile, metaphor, hyperbole, personification, and metonymy. The researcher used both qualitative and quantitative approaches with (SPSS) program for statistics. The results showed that Al Atrash succeeded in utilizing her feminist narrative discourse linguistically to introduce the catastrophic situation the woman has in the masculine society. Taking into consideration metonyms with the highest rates (189) indicating the problems that the Arab woman encounters without finding a solution. Although hyperbole (126= 23%) refers to the writer's trial to support the readers with the perfect image of a woman’s life and why she surrenders to reality and accepts the outdated conventions and traditions.

Interpretive Reading

To gain insights that guide important business decisions and, consequently, turn data into business actions, various methods and types of data could be used depending on the data’s availability, accessibility, and costs. In consulting practice, the usage of widely published market reports and marketing studies is a standard routine. This paper is an example of how institutional theory could be applied in practice for analyzing and interpreting the findings from a typical market study. By contrast to other widely used qualitative and quantitative tools and techniques, applying institutional lenses is far to be mainstream for industry practitioners and strategy consultants. In the selected case from the wine sector, a market report has been hermeneutically “read” through lenses of institutional theory, which helped to identify coercive and mimetic types of isomorphism in the markets of Georgia and Ukraine.

Action research atau penelitian tindakan kelas (PTK) merupakan upaya para pendidik yang reflektif untuk meningkatkan kualitas pengajarannya sehingga hasil pembelajaran siswa juga semakin baik. Pada awal perkembangannya di Amerika Serikat di awal abad 20, PTK menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif. Namun seiring berjalannya waktu, masalah di bidang pendidikan dan pengajaran juga semakin kompleks sehingga beberapa pendidik mulai menggunakan pendekatan kuantitatif. Makalah ini bertujuan untuk memaparkan PTK dengan pendekatan kualitatif dan kuantitatif, disertai dengan contoh-contoh PTK di bidang pengajaran Bahasa Inggris sebagai bahasa asing untuk memperkuat alasan penggunaan masing-masing pendekatan tersebut. Pendekatan apa pun yang digunakan—kualitatif atau kuantitatif—bukan menjadi masalah dan masih dapat disebut sebagai PTK, asalkan tujuan penelitian tersebut dapat dicapai, yaitu peningkatan kualitas pengajaran.
