¶ … socialization of doctoral students the authors John C. Weidman and Elizabeth L. Stein utilize the framework for graduate and professional socialization to explain the socialization of doctoral students to academic rules of research and scholarship. The researchers reveal information about the perceptions of doctoral students on social science and on the foundation of education. The researchers also present information socialization of the students with their peers and with members of faculty. The authors employed a multivariate analysis to support the framework. The analysis helped to emphasize the social relationships between students and the members of faculty. The main objectives of the study were to examine the structures of faculties in relation to the student's socialization and to determine ways that could help create a supportive environment/structure that could help students taking graduate programs by using academics and legislations to help colleges to bring up professionals.
While in the second article Developmental networks and learning: toward an interdisciplinary perspective on identity development during doctoral study the authors Vicki Bakera and Lisa Lattucab explore two theory families i.e. developmental networks and sociocultural perspectives so as to create an interdisciplinary channel to doctoral studies as an alternative route towards becoming a professor. Bakera and Lattucab review the main points of the two theory families before discussing their conjectures and their combinations. The study also involves a discussion of research and theory. According to the two researchers, doctoral education is undergoing huge changes that are predicted to continue in the long-term. One of the main changes is the increase in number of students accepting non-academic careers and increase in number of professional doctorates. The framework used in the study helped address the concerns of academics/scholars, by reviewing theory the authors attempted to link academics to identity development among students undertaking doctoral studies with the aim of joining faculty. The objective of the authors was to explore the relationships of students both within and outside academics.
The third article Critical Thinking in Distance Education and Traditional Education by Lyn Visser, Yusra Visser and Charles Schlosseer is a bit different from the first two based on the fact that it doesn't specifically investigate the perceptions of doctoral students. Instead the authors...
Disaster Classification Classifying disasters and comparing their impact on populations can be very difficult due to the widely varied nature of potential disasters and the different types and levels of damage they can cause. One means of classifying disasters that is frequently used is simply to note the origin of the disaster, or the primary cause of the disaster, which is useful because it can provide varying degrees of detail that,

Matrix or the Cave? The Matrix (1999) has singlehandedly brought the debate over the epistemology of the Real into popular dialogue. For the first time in centuries --if not in history-- a large section of the common crowd had a metaphor by which to question the very existence of objective reality. At bus-stops and street-corners, in fast-food restaurants and movie-houses, populations who would never have read Plato or Heidegger were discussing
PIAGET vs. VYGOTSKY Compared: Piaget and Vygotsky Piaget vs. Vygotsky: The role of language in cognitive development Jean Piaget's theory of human development is fundamentally a biological one: Piaget believed that all human beings go through a series of developmental stages, and the ability to understand certain concepts such as volume and mass is determined by the biological and developmental stage of the brain, more so than culture. If the child is not
Marx, Plato, and the Matrix There are various dichotomies that are explored in the 1999 film the Matrix including concepts of reality and illusion as well as the relationship between man and machine. The concepts of reality and illusion can be explored through a comparative analysis of Plato's "The Allegory of the Cave," whereas the relationship between man and machine can be explored through comparative analysis of Marx's Communist Manifesto.
