Students are not used as raters to evaluate or judge faculty members' academic performance in some universities because of the lack of trust. This study examined the extent to which students can give consistent and reliable ratings. Nineteen graduate students were asked to give ratings to the academic performance of a faculty member on two occasions with two weeks in between. Results showed evidence of interrater agreement and rater consistency. With appropriate training, students can be a reliable source of information about faculty members' academic performance.

The ambiguity regarding the mechanism and limits of the authority of the arresting operations carried out by the corruption eradication commission raises public assumption that the authority exercised by the corruption eradication commission has violated the law and even violated human rights, namely taking arbitrary actions (unprocedure).The problem in writing this study is How can the legal force of the operation of the corruption eradication commission arrest if viewed from the aspect of the Criminal Procedure Code and Law Number 30 of 2002 Concerning the Corruption Eradication Commission? What are the criteria for an alleged crime using a arrest operation? What is the ideal way for the Corruption Eradication Commission to carry out arrest operations? This study uses a Normative and Empirical Juridical approach. Normative research is carried out on matters that are theoretical principles of law, whereas an empirical approach is carried out to study law in reality. The results of the study found that legal force of the act of arrest operations of the corruption eradication commission if viewed from the aspect of the Criminal Procedure Code and Law Number 30 of 2002 Concerning the Corruption Eradication Commission actually the act of arrest operations of the corruption eradication commission does not have a strong legal basis from the juridical aspects of criminal law. problem of violating the principle of due processof law Criteria for Alleged Crime Using a hand arrest operation due to the type or quality of the target of corruption is not a simple crime and therefore the need for a hand arrest operation, and ideally the commission of asan corruption In carrying out arrest operations, it is necessary to have a good case administration system starting from the stage of collecting data and information that is based on an accurate and reliable source of information, after that conducting an investigation in accordance with the standard operating procedures that have been determined then at the execution stage such as conduct monitoring, undercover, tapping and then the operation of arresting the authority must be in accordance with the legislation. The suggestion that can be done is that the legal basis for Operation of Catching Hands must be immediately included in the article instrument in the corruption eradication commission law so that its authority is not at issue

Excitement, the strong positive affect engendered by new information, plays a key role in creative learning. The department chair noted as problematic for all programs that very few of our graduate students became faculty at major universities. But many of the students of Karon did become faculty at major universities, one index of quality of graduate training, as well as becoming competent psychotherapists. This was not because of any direct encouragement to become faculty members. The difference in his approach to graduate education from that of his colleagues can be summarized in four principles. First, remember that graduate students are just like the faculty, except that they are younger. Consequently, they have done less and read less. Second, teach what you know. Particularly if you have done original work, teach that. Your excitement will communicate itself. Third, encourage them to take their own work seriously, including their own research and clinical observations. Their own ideas are as valuable and as worth exploring and developing as any in the literature. Finally, if they are bright, get out of their way. This is related to Tomkins’ theory of the role of affects, especially interest-excitement, in learning and intellectual creativity.

Healthcare information contained on the World Wide Web is not screened or regulated and claims may be unsubstantiated and misleading. The objective of this study was to evaluate the nature and quality of information on the Web in relation to hand surgery. Three search engines were assessed for information on three hand operations: carpal tunnel decompression, Dupuytren's release and trigger finger release. Websites were classified and evaluated for completeness, accuracy, accountability and reference to a reliable source of information. A total of 172 websites were examined. Although 85% contained accurate information, in 65% this information was incomplete. Eighty-seven per cent of websites were accountable for the information presented, but only 24% made references to reliable sources. Until an organised approach to website control is established, it is important for hand surgeons to emphasise to their patients that not everything they read is complete or accurate. Publicising sites known to be of high quality will promote safe browsing of the Web.

This study aimed to identify the relationship between obtaining the academic accreditation and quality of academic performance with respect to some elements of the quality related to the students and faculty members as the most important elements of the inputs and outputs of the educational process. This study was conducted on faculty members in six of the scientific colleges at King Saud University in Riyadh, three of them obtained the accreditation and three of them did not. A Quotas sample has been withdrawn consisted of 296 single, where a questionnaire was distributed. The volume of responses was 246 weighing 83%. The study found out that (67.9 %) of the respondents in the colleges that received accreditation believes that there is a development in the quality of academic performance in college after obtaining the academic accreditation. The study also showed that (62.2 %) of the respondents in colleges who obtained the accreditation or did not obtain it believes that obtaining the accreditation necessarily leads to a quality in academic performance. As it turns out from the study that there is no relationship between obtaining academic accreditation and the quality of students that is, to obtain accreditation does not necessarily lead to quality learning outcomes of students, where it turns through the views of the respondents that the quality of the outputs of the educational process of students in colleges did not receive the accreditation is higher than in colleges obtained it. The results also showed that there is no relationship between obtaining an academic accreditation and quality performance among faculty members, it became clear that the faculty members in colleges who obtained the accreditation or did not obtain it agree on the quality of the performance of a faculty member.

The career to which most physical anthropology graduate students have aspired historically is that of college or university faculty member in an anthropology department with a graduate program. Through the early 1970s, such a career was not an unrealistic aspiration. However, an important employment threshold was exceeded in 1975; the production of Ph.D. physical anthropologists by U.S. colleges and universities exceeded the number of new Ph.D. physical anthropologists hired as faculty members by these departments. That trend continued into the 1980s, with one-third again as many doctoral degrees being granted in the field as there were job openings in U.S. anthropology departments.

The present study aims to evaluate the teaching performance of the faculty member at the Faculty of Education, University of Sirte, from the point of view of the students of the faculty as an approach to achieve quality in university education. The study uses the descriptive analytical method using the evaluation card of the faculty member in the fields of lecture planning, preparation, human relations, and evaluation methods. The study reached a number of conclusions, most notably: - Evaluation of the performance of the faculty member at the Faculty of Education is moderate, reflecting the dissatisfaction of students with this performance. - There are no statistically significant differences at the level of 0.01 due to the variables of gender, the semester, and the course in their responses about evaluating the performance of the faculty member. - There are statistically significant differences at the level of significance 0.05 for the variable of the scientific departments in the responses of students about the evaluation of the performance of the faculty member of the Faculty of Education in favor of the departments of (Mathematics, Chemistry, Physics, and Biology).
