An experience theory is required if the education is to be wisely carried out (John Dewey). Education is a discipline that saves lives if it is qualified, but loss of which could not be made up throughout generations if it is not qualified. The roots of society are based on the education, and educated masses and civilizations could either move into the future or could fall behind in the race of becoming civilized. The classical education notion which stays on the level of theory and is carried out, centering the teacher is being left by the developed countries and replaced with the education notion which centers the student and structures information by benefiting from experiences, thus aims to lead civilization race with citizens knowing the ways to reach the information and aware of their duties and responsibilities. While Kurt Lewin says nothing is as practical as a good theory, he also catches attention to the new education notion centering student that has changed and is changing. In this scope, the aim of this study is analyze how often active learning methods are used by history teachers through several variables. In the light of the data, after analysis results and explanations made in accordance with these results are written, the study is concluded with suggestions

Incidence and prevalence of infected Covid-19 are still rampant in the West and the most countries throughout world from 2020 to 2021. Although the incidence of infected Covid-19 in the developed countries has decreased down by the popular vaccination, it is still anxiety and worry to make more serious widespread from the variated coronavirus. It is a rigorous fact that there still are higher on the mortality to the seniors, special seniors who are resided at nursing homes. For seniors, the infected Coronavirus may product them a disastrous attack according to their pre-existing diseases, complication accompanied with Covid-19, and post-syndromes caused by Covid-19. Their Covid-19 may be more complex, more serious, harder to find a fast and effective therapies and easier to become to the post-syndromes which will make a bad influence to the quality of life in the rest of their life. TCM focuses to individual case, and pay attention more for their pre-existing diseases, complication with Covid-19, and possibility of post-syndrome’s production while some anti-coronavirus herbs are prescribed, so a more fixed prescription is made. In this clinical trial, the author classified 60 cases into two groups: over 45 years old as the observing group and under of 44 years old as the contrasted group, incidences on pre-existing diseases, complication and post-syndromes are observed separately; their results after treated by Chinese medical herbs are also observed. We recognize from these observation and analysis TCM treatment can significantly stabilized pre-existing diseases, treat complication together and prevent the post-syndromes’ occurrence while is treating to Coronavirus. TCM is a suitable treating choice to Senior with Covid-19.

Purpose – This paper aims to argue that the traditional belief that “consumer ethnocentrism is a phenomenon of the developed countries only” is no longer true. To establish this argument, our study assesses the applicability of the Consumer Ethnocentric Tendencies Scale (CETSCALE) in Bangladesh by judging the unidimensionality feature of the same. Design/methodology/approach – The methodology is based on sample of 788 respondents collected from 27 border and non-border districts of Bangladesh. Findings – Statistically significant results show that for the consumers of border and non-border districts, the original CETSCALE is, to a great extent, applicable as those groups have shown positive attitudes in retaining 12-14 items out of the 17 items of the original scale. However, the groups and the respondents as a whole did not agree with the unidimensionality feature of the CETSCALE. Practical implications – The results of the study show that Bangladeshi consumers prefer to see “Made in Bangladesh” tags when buying consumer products – a significant potential threat that the multinational companies need to address while planning to expand business in Bangladesh. Originality/value – This type of rigorous study on Bangladesh has never been done before. Moreover, the study identifies the difference in ethnocentric behavior of the consumers living in border and non-border areas – a study of ethnocentrism from a different point of view.

B2B development has been faster in the developed world comparing to developing countries. This chapter proposes a “tool” for managing CSF in B2B settings. The tool is in the form of guidelines, which are concrete and detailed, and which enable a more clear view of actions needed during the preparation stage of B2B projects. We argue that developing countries seldom have the luxury of affording failure in new B2B ventures, but that they instead must learn from the mistakes already made by the developed countries. Thus, our proposed guidelines are based on an existing framework and experiences made in the developed countries. The guidelines are furthermore discussed with regard to the specific problems and conditions that developing countries face. Much work still remains, and problems still must be resolved. From a global perspective, this is important for all of us!

Human nature is inevitably concerned with the past which, for nations no less than for individuals, forms a framework for present attitudes and sometimes a justification for present actions. In the developed countries of the West this framework is easily and frequently obscured, although its presence can be readily demonstrated. For those nations which have, until recently, been controlled by one or other of the European powers, however, the past provides a framework to which national appeal is often made in a particularly explicit way.

An attempt is made in this paper to consider first the current nutritional scene with its problems, and then to suggest strategies for improvement. Since the quality of people’s diets everywhere is influenced by many different factors, not least by availability of food, a bility to pay for it, and some (however basic) understanding of its effects upon health, a strong plea is made for consideration to be given to those most in need of nutritional help—the least advantaged and least motivated groups in the developed countries, as well as the poor in the Third World. Some strategies aimed at improving nutrition behaviour are outlined.

‘Biopiracy’ is an illegal appropriation of genetic resources or traditional knowledge by way of patents which restrict its future use. It has been observed in a lot of cases that the devel-oped countries make use of the biological resources or traditional knowledge of the devel-oping countries while inventing a new product. And when they claim a patent over their invention, they are denied of that monopoly right. The term biopiracy itself suggests 'biological theft' however it is not always the case. A number of regulations have been made in favor of developing countries to protect their resources and traditional knowledge but at the same time, it is evident that the developed countries do not apply the traditional knowledge 'as it is', they go beyond it and carry out further research and experiment to develop a new product. The fact that the mere sub-stance in a new product is a part of traditional knowledge of a particular country is not a suitable ground to revoke the application of patent. In most of the cases, patents have been denied to the developed countries on the ground that there was no novelty in their product as the product has been developed by using developing country's traditional knowledge is not justified. The interest of the patentee should also be taken into consideration.

This article highlights the pervasiveness of the products and processes of engineering in having improved the quality of life in the developed countries of the world. The airplane and its associated infrastructure of airports and ticketing schemes have come a long way since the Wright Brothers’ first flight in 1903, and the ensemble that goes under the rubric ‘airplane’ certainly warrants recognition as achievement. All the engineering achievements that have been identified as among the greatest of the past century leave room for improvement. Air conditioning and refrigeration are among the more domestic achievements of 20th century engineering, but at exactly what stage they became so is hard to say. Refrigerators especially came a long way in the second half of the century. Well-controlled air conditioning, for all the technological progress made in the field since air was fanned over a block of ice, seems to remain one of the great open problems of mechanical engineering. All achievements, engineering and otherwise, are relative to their time and circumstances.

This paper examines how international students in a local public institution perceived the quality of Malaysian-made cars and whether the country of origin is an important factor in determining the purchase decision of a car. A total of 176 full-time registered international students from 12 countries participated as respondents in this research. A purposive sample was used in this research whereby respondents were asked to complete a self-administrated questionnaire. The findings supported the literature which indicated that most respondents have a more favourable perception of cars made in the developed countries than cars made in developing countries. The influence of country of origin, also known as the “made in” effect, has been broadly defined as the positive or negative influence that a country’s product of manufacture may have on consumers’ decision processes or subsequent behaviour. The result of this research showed that the effect of country of origin is discernable among the respondents.

Growing involvement of Russian economy in international economic sphere increases the role of external risks. Financial problems which the developed countries are encountered with today result in volatility of Russian stock market, liquidity problems for banks, unstable prices. These factors in total may put longer-term prospects of economic growth in jeopardy. Monetary, foreign exchange and stock market mechanisms become the centerpiece of economic policy approaches which should provide for stable development in the shaky environment.
