Abstract: In a fast-paced world, where technology, infrastructures and human capacity building are some of the key drivers of many societies. As growths and changes in these aspects and many other important areas of the societies becomes inevitable one would expect the same growth and positive changes in the area of women’s right to live and express themselves in all areas of the society such as social, political, entertainment, leadership etc. However, this isn’t happening in many societies today, as women are being systematically discriminated upon and subjected to live by certain rules and regulations unlike their male counterparts. This has been made very possible as many of these discriminating laws are mainly based on religious and traditional teachings and doctrines, which are mostly misinterpreted and used against women’s right to freedom and expressions in the entire society, in many occasions women and girls are made to believe that is for their own good but it turns out to be logically discriminating and oppressive in its entirety. Today men in many countries are given higher rights and priorities directly and indirectly as a result this leads to gender inequality and then violence against women of all sorts which is then justified. Women are expected to endure and live with such hash and some cases unbearable conditions imposed on them. The issues of domestic violence committed mostly against women generally, has clearly become a norm in many societies today with the authorities doing less or nothing. The methodology used in the research is mainly a qualitative approach in carrying out the study, and that is done by carrying out an in-depth comparative study of domestic violence against women in Malaysia and Iran this entails researching into the religious, traditional, political, societal, norms, laws, teachings, believes and awareness level in both countries.

Abstract: Mankind is bestowed with the unique brain of wisdom unlike the rest of the creatures and creations of life made up of different kinds of bio-living-matters in God’s Language-chemistries with pre-planned live-on-and-on-tricks for years together on our Planet Earth. South Africa has been technically found and practically fixed up to be the place of cheer-flag where the hunting scientific search engines halt moving no inch further since the original materialistic evidence of mankind formation, evolution, survival and bushcraft-skills existence is plenty. This, we call today- ‘population-spread globally’ in perpetual migrations expanded.

Such an important spot named South Africa has indeed mobilized the global personalities of mankind’s virtues and illustrations such as Nelson Mandela & Mahatma Gandhi from within the South African environs to stamp out the ills plaguing the mankind such as the racial bias on the soil of South Africa.

A dynamic finding of my  research tempo is that while both Gandhi & Mandela are gifted out of the Mother Nature’s engraft-altering of bio-mechanical practices of Creation of Mankind, this Paper designates to its credibility that it is the Nature’s balancing act between  Syngraft  &  Xenograft forces in the  Nature’s casualization laboratory/workshop .

Abstract: The study is aimed to determine the relationship between classroom environment and the academic achievement. The respondents were 55 third year Radiologic Technology students enrolled in Cebu Doctors’ University. They were made to rate their classroom environment by answering the Classroom Environment Assessment Tool formulated by the researcher. The final grades of the students in each major course were used to determine the level of academic achievement. The study utilized the descriptive correlational design to determine the relationship between the classroom environment and the academic achievement. It was found out that there was a significant correlation between the physical environment and the students’ academic achievement in Computed Tomography Scan. The result showed that as the quality of the physical environment increased, the academic achievement of the student also increased. There was a significant correlation between the emotional climate and the Nuclear Medicine students’ academic achievement. The findings suggest that the physical environment slightly influenced the academic achievement of the students in Radiologic Technology.

Keywords: academic achievement, classroom environment, physical environment, nonphysical environment, radiologic technology, intellectual climate, emotional climate, social climate.

Abstract: Mahatma Gandhi known as the Father of the Independent Indian Nation is not only a down-to-earth practitioner of social movements in a spiritual way but also a spiritual politician in human social values of co-existing, co-operating and co-educating. He shot up to world-wide name-value and public fame portrait from the colonial British-Africa-India protocols for his leadership to give rise to an Independent Indian Nation from a 200-year long foreign control mode.

Even though he does not need introduction, there remains a great deal of study and research in academic circles to precisely frame his roles not only in his many Indian but also several African episodes. This Paper has original researched deliberations not xeroxed from any other lectured sources and that’s why, chosen not to cite in-text references albeit brief list at the end for chance confronting why-what in them.

This self-directed top-order re-re-researching such Indo-African ‘Colossus’ is soul-hinting to me to ferret out the so far unheard as far as possible in the form of a day-lighted-delightful-tunneled research-work-master-piece. Hence the titled-product on Gandhi’s Africanism & Africa’s Gandhi-ism became my central idea explored with a mind of their being mirror images, parallel lines and synchronization phenomenon in history.

Abstract: Development of holistic community requires approaches that are directed by evangelical perspectives. This paper aimed to investigate the aspects of holistic community development while arguing the secular and religious perspectives and views. The manuscript also proposed development of holistic community within the organization ‘Developing Our World’. Author used Christianity as the missionary statant for the proposed organization. Holistic perspectives of community development are substantially guided by religious views and norms particularly those addressed by the evangelical aspects in Christianity. However, secular views of community development do not view religious perspective as much important. Thus, author used an evangelical missionary statement and holistic perspective to develop potential themes from the collected secondary data in this paper.  Five major themes have been devised from the collected secondary data. These include secularism and holistic community development; evangelism and holistic community development; religious foundation and holistic community development; the foundational concepts about holistic community development based on "the great narrative of scriptures"; and the value of applying the concept in the mission field today.
