Ḥiyal is a hidden approach in order to achieve certain goals. This legal device is still debated among Muslim scholars. Some of them are more likely to allow it, while others do not. Nonetheless, Islamic contracts that consist of ḥiyal, such as tawarruq have been attaining attraction especially in the Islamic banking industry in Malaysia. It is offered widely through various Islamic banking products based on a specific guideline aimed at preserving the reputation and performance of Malaysian Islamic banking. Therefore, this study will examine ḥiyal concept from the fiqh perspective and the guidance of accepting ḥiyal contracts, particularly tawarruq-based deposit product offering at the Malaysian Islamic banking. To collect data, researchers utilised the library studies and field studies (interview). Library studies apply the method of documentation by referring to the ḥiyal discussion among Muslim scholars as well as the product disclosure sheet and the BNM tawarruq policy document. Meanwhile, the field studies employed the interview method which involve several informants among Shariah experts / muamalat and Shariah executives in Malaysian Islamic banking. The qualitative data were subsequently analyse using content analysis method descriptively. Research finding implies that although tawarruq contracts with ḥiyal elements were widely offered through Malaysian Islamic banking products, their acceptance took into account several guidelines, namely ḥiyal views from the perspective of fiqh, ḥiyal parameters, and BNM tawarruq policy document.   Ḥiyal merupakan satu pendekatan yang tersembunyi bagi mencapai satu matlamat khusus. Dalam perbahasan fiqh, fuqaha berbeza pandangan terhadap elemen ḥiyal. Sebahagian mereka lebih cenderung mengharuskan aplikasi elemen ini, demikian juga sebahagian lain tidak mengharuskannya. Namun begitu, kontrak yang mengandungi ḥiyal meraih penerimaan yang memberansangkan terutama dalam industri perbankan Islam di Malaysia, umpamanya dalam kontrak tawarruq. Ia ditawarkan secara meluas menerusi pelbagai produk perbankan Islam dengan berasaskan panduan khusus yang bertujuan untuk memelihara reputasi dan prestasi perbankan Islam Malaysia. Sehubungan itu, kajian ini akan meneliti konsep ḥiyal dari sudut fiqh dan panduan penerimaan kontrak yang mempunyai elemen ḥiyal, khususnya kontrak tawarruq dalam penawaran produk deposit di perbankan Islam Malaysia. Bagi mencapai objektif tersebut, pengkaji menggunakan kajian kepustakaan dan lapangan (temubual) bagi mengumpulkan data. Kajian kepustakaan mengaplikasikan metode dokumentasi dengan merujuk kepada perbahasan ḥiyal dalam kalangan fuqaha di samping lembaran pendedahan produk serta dokumen polisi tawarruq BNM. Manakala kajian lapangan menggunapakai metode temubual yang melibatkan informan dalam kalangan pakar Syariah/muamalat dan eksekutif Syariah di perbankan Islam Malaysia. Data yang diperolehi telah dianalisis menggunakan kaedah analisis kandungan secara deskriptif dan tematik. Hasil kajian mendapati meskipun kontrak tawarruq yang mempunyai elemen ḥiyal ditawarkan secara meluas melalui produk perbankan Islam Malaysia, penerimaannya mengambil kira beberapa panduan iaitu perbincangan ḥiyal dari perspektif fiqh, parameter ḥiyal dan dokumen polisi tawarruq BNM.

Phenomenology being among the qualitative research methods was used in this study. The research population is composed of the academicians working in the field of recreation in different universities of Turkey. Qualitative data collection method via metaphors was used. When metaphors are used to "describe", a situation, event and phenomenon are described as they exist (Yıldırım and Şimşek, 2013). Data from the study were collected by using a semi-structured metaphor form via survey online. The raw data obtained from the study were examined, incomplete or inexpedient ones were excluded and metaphors were modeled by transferring them to the Nvivo 10 program.As a result of the data obtained, the academicians working in the field of recreation use such concepts as escape, star, giant, happiness, music box, spring air, freedom, traveler, broken chain ring, octopus, life, Aladdin and the magic lamp, sun, a colorful cake with mixed fruit, work potential, a multi-purpose field or saloon, funfair, umbrella, flying carpet, human, Aegean sea, sea, rainbow, water, living, forest, fishing tackle, bridge, time, wind, chameleon, seasons, breath, science, nature and spice while describing the concept of recreation metaphorically. The data obtained after the interviews were then coded under the appropriate themes after being analyzed with the content analysis method. According to the data obtained, it has been found that it has been gathered under 5 (five) themes as "As a Value for Individual and Society", "Serving Needs", "Social Reputation", "Recreate" and "Self- realization". In conclusion, it is observed that the metaphors obtained comply with the recreation theories regarding the metaphorical perceptions of the academicians working in the field of recreation about the “recreation” concept.

Abstract Background: Nursing student numbers have risen in response to projected registered nurse shortfalls, increasing numbers of new graduates requiring transitional support and pressure on clinical placements. A Collaborative Clusters Education Model, in which Entry to Practice facilitators coach ward-based registered nurses to support students’ and new graduates’ learning, may address placement capacity. The research aim was to evaluate the acceptability of the Collaborative Clusters Education Model to stakeholders by examining their perceptions of the facilitators and barriers to the model in its implementation. Methods: A convergent mixed methods evaluation approach was adopted. The study took place in a large Australian health service in south-east Queensland. Participants included Bachelor of Nursing students, Entry to Practice facilitators, ward-based registered nurses, academics and new graduates. A mixed methods design was used. Elements included an online survey of nursing students, and interviews with new graduates, Entry to Practice facilitators, ward-based registered nurses, and academics. Descriptive statistics were calculated on quantitative data. Thematic analysis was conducted on qualitative data. Results: Participants included 134 nursing students, five new graduates, seven Entry to Practice facilitators, four registered nurses, and three nurse academics. Students rated facilitators’ effectiveness highly (4.43/5±0.75), although this finding is tempered by a low response rate (13.5%). For learners, the model provided access to learning experiences, although preferences for sources of support differed between students and new graduates, and further clarification of responsibilities was required. For other stakeholders, three themes emerged: students’ and new graduates’ integration into the workplace can promote learning; tensions arise in new ways to approach performance assessment; and aligning expectations requires high levels of communication. Conclusions: This evaluation found that acceptability was good but at risk from limited clarity around roles and responsibilities. Further research into this model is recommended.

This research presents a virtual exchange project between two tertiary institutions in New Zealand and Finland with 26 participants who were intermediate German language students. During the project, the students used a closed Facebook group to post about given topics; the posts combined video, audio, and text that adhered to multimodal meaning-making theory. The theoretical framework was task-based language teaching underpinned by the notion of engagement, social media in language learning, and telecollaboration. Language learning was viewed through a socio-cultural lens. A mixed-methods approach was used to collect data including questionnaires, interviews, and FB-logs. The qualitative data was analysed by content analysis method. The results indicate that the students perceived FB as an applicable tool for community building and they enjoyed the variation it brought to the course. Collaboration, use of communication tools, authenticity, and teachers' support fostered student engagement.
