The flipped classroom, as an active learning model, has given remarkable results in several areas in the university teaching; however, its execution is still able to improve. This research shows the implementation and improvement of the flipped classroom model in the course of Pavements. It evaluates their influence on the students’ final grades and their learning experience. Three groups of students participated in this study, who enrolled in the course of Pavements in the Civil Engineering. Group A took the course with the traditional model, while Group B took it with a flipped classroom, and Group C experienced it with a reinforced flipped model. Groups did the course the subject in 2017, 2018 and 2019, respectively. Results show that even though with the flipped classroom models, the finals grades did not increase compared to the scores of the traditional model; however, it improved their learning experience. The students were more satisfied with the method; they even asked for fewer modifications than they did in the traditional model. This research shows that adding little academic things to the course, it would greatly influence their students' opinion.

The objective of this research was to survey research data of Rajamangala University of Technology Phra Nakhon that was 1) published, 2) cited, and 3) published with regard to the collaboration of its researchers with those of other universities in both national and international journals during the years 2008-2013. Such related data was collected from journals that appeared in 1) the database of Thailand Journal Citation Index Centre (TCI), 2) Web of Science database (WoS) and 3) RMUTP Research Journal. Analyses applied included social statistics particularly descriptive statistics which were frequency, percentage and weighted score from six indicators. From the survey, it was found that there were 586 lecturers and researchers in the university 118 out of 586 had research work published. The most important findings are as follows. First, during six years (2008-2013), the university had 141 published research articles. 91 percent were published nationally and 9 percent internationally. The weighted score is 61.33. Second, there was only 12 article that was cited in a national journal, representing 8 percent. But could not find article that was cited in international journals. Finally, there were 40 articles, or 28 percent, that were produced under the collaboration with researchers from other universities.

Increasing energy demands and diminishing fuel supplies have left nations desirous of avenues to minimize their reliance on traditional energy sources and a need to infuse supplementary technologies. Biogas technology is one such trajectory that can contribute to the reduction of dependency on fossil fuel as well as allay environmentally problems. The University of Technology, Jamaica (UTech) and Pennsylvania State University (PSU), in pursuit of investigating the potential of biogas in the agricultural sectors of Jamaica and Pennsylvania, United States, sought to use biogas generated from livestock (chicken, swine and cow) waste as an alternative energy source. A 32 factorial design resulted in the construction of seven (7) laboratory scale biodigesters, each with a volumetric capacity of 8 L. Variations of the ratio, (i.e. chicken manure in combination with pig or cow manure) and retention time enabled the monitoring of biogas flow-rates, temperature, pH, residual mass along with percentage methane production. From the data collected mathematical models relating the flow-rate and percentage methane concentration were deduced in order to facilitate the design of a pilot scale digester on the Silverdene poultry farm in the Parish of St. Catherine, Jamaica.

Academic Content

The adoption of undergraduates into research teams upon entering university representsa marked change from the prescriptive lecture-lab format that underpins current teachingformats within the physical sciences. One such approach has been piloted at NottinghamTrent University - though not as a replacement for traditional teaching methods but ratherto compliment and enhance the university experience for new entrant undergraduates.The programme has aimed to foster a student centred approach to their studies withinchemistry through providing a genuine, real world context wherein they can tackle realproblems that will help to reinforce the academic content and develop transferable skills.While the programme can be viewed as an enhanced work experience programme forundergraduates, its principal aim is to provide a pro-active mentoring framework that willnurture student enthusiasm for the subject. The logistics of running such a programmeare outlined and the preliminary outcomes from the initial pilot are discussed.

Abstract We report on the publishing and collaborative patterns of researchers in the applied sciences and engineering disciplines at a technological university in South Africa, Cape Peninsula University of Technology. The study focused on works published over a 10-year period (2005–2014) and was based on citations of peer-reviewed literature from Scopus. The results showed a steady growth in research outputs in science and technology at the university. There has also been a growing trend of international collaboration in certain disciplines. This scoping study serves as a benchmark for similar studies.
