Abstract:
Purpose The purpose of this study is to understand the destination image perceptions about Australia – a Western culture country – as held by the rapidly increasing, high spending, culturally dissimilar new segment of travellers, the Emiratis[1] from the United Arab Emirates (UAE). Design/methodology/approach A qualitative methodology was used to understand the cognitive, affective and conative images of Australia. A structured categorisation matrix was used to analyse the data so that only aspects fitting the matrix were selected. Findings Within the cognitive variable, Australia was found to be pleasant, family oriented, a fun place, laid back and the local people friendly. From an affective factor perspective, Australia was seen as being exciting, because of the variety of activities available for these tourists. Exciting was expressed by words like fantastic, amazing and extreme experience. In terms of the conative variable most of the Emirati tourists expressed strong feelings to go back to Australia and to even re-visit with friends. They also mentioned that they would recommend Australia to family and friends. Research limitations/implications A limitation of this study was that our sample comprised informants mainly from the Emirates of Abu Dhabi and Dubai, the two largest Emirates of the nation. The study offers destination marketing organisations’ (DMOs) insights into Emirati travellers’ perceptions about Australia, which would benefit destination marketing. Originality/value This study examines the under researched area of how Australia – with its liberal Western culture – could be better marketed to the growing numbers of culturally conservative, high spending Emirati outbound tourists from the officially Islamic UAE, and also more generally to the socio-culturally homogeneous Gulf Cooperation Council region that the UAE is part of. Whilst destination image is an intensively analysed topic within the realm of tourism research, and reportedly a powerful influence on destination choice, the extant literature on how Australia is perceived as a travel destination by Emiratis is scant. For DMO’s attempting to attract wealthy Emirati tourists into Australia, this research is valuable and timely, as several Emiratis are seeking newer travel destinations away from the Western hemisphere, where the general anti-Arab/Islamic sentiments are currently quite strong.

Abstract:
United Arab Emirates nationals (‘Emiratis’) constitute less than 10% of the resident population of Dubai. Despite having access to free education in the public sector, where Arabic is the medium of instruction, more Emirati families in Dubai choose to enrol their children in private schools (specifically English-medium schools) than public ones, believing that they offer better teaching and learning, better English instruction, and better school leadership. There is growing concern among policy makers and Emirati parents that young Emiratis are in danger of becoming detached from their national language and culture. The regulatory authority for private schools, the Knowledge and Human Development Authority (KHDA), is encouraging the private sector to explore bilingual educational models. This study seeks to establish the type of Arabic-English bilingual educational model that would suit the needs of Emirati families, and to explore the circumstances in which it can take root in Dubai’s private K-12 sector. The design follows a mixed methods sequential two-phased design utilising multiple sources of data generated through: written essays by a sample of 12 Emirati students selected from two schools (the qualitative phase), and a questionnaire directed at a broader set of Emirati students (the quantitative phase). Findings suggest a model built on four core principles: (1) explicit mention of bilingualism as a stated goal; (2) the use of both Arabic and English as mediums of instruction, with subjects divided more or less equally between them; (3) the deployment of first language Arabic and English teachers in equal measure or, alternatively, the utilisation of bilingual teachers; and (4) the promotion and use of Arabic in everyday tasks, both at home and in school. The findings also advocate that the model could assume any of multiple variants of Baker’s (2011) four strong bilingual types: immersion, maintenance, dual language, or mainstream. To bring the model to fruition the government of Dubai should consider investing in the initial training and retraining of Emirati teachers with the end goal that these teachers should populate Dubai’s Arabic-English bilingual schools, while also partially funding scholarship programmes that would encourage Emirati parents to select bilingual schools over other types.

Abstract:
This article explores the changes in the Emirati school system from Arabic to bilingual curriculum (English and Arabic) as well as the influence of English in Emirati Arabic: English loanwords and verbs in Emirati Arabic; as well as their occurrences in light of age and gender, two important social variables related to linguistic behavior. To do so, we administered questionnaires and recorded Emirati high school students (aged 17-18), Emirati alumni from 38 to 50 years old, as well as elderly Emiratis aged 64 to 66, which means a generation gap of over 40 years from the youngest to the eldest group. We will analyze which English loanwords and verbs are present in Emirati Arabic due to historical reasons and the most recent incorporations due to modernization factors.

Abstract:
Background: Phenotypic differences in Parkinson’s Disease (PD) among locals (Emiratis) and Expatriates (Expats) living in United Arab Emirates have not been described and could be important to unravel local aspects of clinical heterogenicity of PD pointing towards genetic and epigenetic variations. Objective: To investigate the range and nature of motor and nonmotor clinical presentations of PD and its impact on time to diagnosis, local service provisions, and quality of life in Emiratis and Expats in UAE, as well as address the presence of current unmet needs on relation to care and etiopathogenesis of PD related to possible genetic and epigenetic factors. Methods: a cross-sectional one point in time prospective, observational real-life study of 171 patients recruited from PD and Neurology clinics across United Arab Emirates from 2019–2021. Primary outcomes were sociodemographic data, motor and nonmotor symptoms (NMS), including cognition and sleep, and quality of life (QOL) assessments, Results: A total of 171 PD patients (52 Emiratis 119 Expats) were included with mean age (Emiratis 48.5 (13.1) Expats 64.15 (13.1)) and mean disease duration (Emiratis 4.8 (3.2) Expats 6.1 (2.9)). In the Emiratis, there was a significant mean delay in initiating treatment after diagnosis (Emiratis 1.2 (0.9) Expats 1.6 (1.1)), while from a clinical phenotyping aspect, there is a high percentage of akinesia 25 (48.1) or tremor dominant (22 (42.3)) phenotypes as opposed to mixed subtype 67 (56.3) in Expat cohorts; double tremor dominant, especially Emirati females (25%), had a predominant lower limb onset PD. Both Emirati (27.9 (24.0)) and Expat 29.4 (15.6) showed moderate NMS burden and the NMS profile is dominated by Sleep, Fatigue, Mood, Emotional well-being 3.0 (1.1) and Social Stigma 3.5 (0.9) aspects of PDQ8 SI measurements are predicted worse QOL in Emiratis, while lack of social support 2.3 (1.3) impaired QOL in Expat population. Awareness for advanced therapies was low and only 25% of Emiratis were aware of deep brain surgery (DBS), compared to 69% Expats. Only 2% of Emiratis, compared to 32% of Expats, heard of Apomorphine infusion (CSAI), and no (0%) Emiratis were aware of intrajejunal levodopa infusion (IJLI), compared to 13% of expats. Conclusion: Our pilot data suggest clinical phenotypic differences in presentation of PD in Emiratis population of UAE compared to expats. Worryingly, the data also show delayed treatment initiation, as well as widespread lack of knowledge of advanced therapies in the Emirati population.

Abstract:
The UN Human Development Report 2020 ranked the United Arab Emirates (UAE) as having achieved ‘very high human development’ and as being at the 31st position among all countries. Despite this, the ever increasing obesity rates among Emirati youth, higher than international standards, is alarming. This research aims at identifying how different perceptions of the built environment by parents and adolescents are likely to affect physical activity (PA) choices among male and female Emirati youth. This can help inform better health and education policies to achieve three of the interconnected UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), namely good quality health and well-being, quality education, and gender equality, that the UAE strives to achieve. Responses from 335 students (aged 14–20) from six schools and 250 parent responses in the Al Ain region of Abu Dhabi Emirate were used to understand the mean variation in perception of five built environment constructs. Further, multinomial logit regression was used to assess the health condition using the perception, behavior, and built environment measures. Results indicate that Emirati males perceive the built environment factors as barriers more than female adolescents. Parents perceive street crossing (p < 0.016) and sidewalk characteristics (p < 0.020) to be more of a hindrance. Traffic exposure, self-reported physical activity, and walkability near homes and schools significantly affect Emirati adolescents’ health conditions. Recommendations are made for various stakeholders including parents, school authorities, Abu Dhabi Municipality and Transportation, and the Urban Planning department on ways to enhance the built environment and encourage PA and well-being of Emirati adolescents.

Abstract:
We delineate the clinical characteristics, incidence, and prevalence of pediatric-onset multiple sclerosis in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates, from 2010 to 2014. Eighty-two patients (65% female) were identified. Fifty-three (64.6%) were Emiratis (45 from Abu Dhabi and 8 from 5 other emirates) and 29 were expatriates. Mean age of onset was 15.9 years overall, 15.3 years in males and 16.3 years in females. Patients with onset before age 12 years presented with visual symptoms while those with onset after age 12 years presented with a mixture of visual, motor and sensory symptoms. Interferon beta-1a was the most frequently used disease-modifying therapy (48%). In Abu Dhabi Emirati nationals, the age- and sex-adjusted prevalences were 26/100 000 for males and 36/100 000 for females. The total incidence in Emirati nationals from 2010 to 2014 was 2.3/100 000 for ages 10 to 14 years and 7.2/100 000 for ages 15 to 19 years. By comparison with international cohorts, the incidence of pediatric-onset multiple sclerosis in Abu Dhabi is higher whereas gender distribution is similar.

Abstract:
It is evident that generational shifts in tourist behaviour facilitate the anticipation and accommodation of future trends in the industry. Although a unique and influential tourist segment, the millennial generation of the United Arab Emirates (UAE) has not been adequately researched. This paper aims to explore the travel patterns of Emirati millennials; particularly their preferences, their online travel behaviour and the impact of social media on their choices. After reviewing the academic and trade literature on millennial travelers and some cases of existing innovative practices of tourism businesses targeting millennials, the paper will present the results of a survey conducted to investigate the travel patterns of young Emirati travelers, contributing to the literature on this emerging segment which is almost nonexistent. The research offers useful insights into what Emiratis value the most, their preference for leisure travel to new destinations and the influence of travel apps and social media on their travel planning. The research led to the development of suggestions for businesses aiming to attract millennials.

Abstract:
Abstract During the last decade Emirati women, due to their ever increasing educational achievements—sustained by a state politics of modernization—have ventured into a great variety of occupations. As a corollary, the term “women leadership” has become fashionable in public and governmental discourses, highlighting Emirati women’s successes. In the article, I compare the state narrative on women leadership and female empowerment with the experiences of 30 Emirati women leaders from the cultural sector with whom I conducted extensive interviews (2018–19) about their career pathways, family background, achievements, and the various challenges and obstacles they face—both at work and at home. In this context, it is examined how Emirati women leaders are compelled to navigate between state feminist discourses and the still prevalent conservative gender role and value expectations in the United Arab Emirates. Finally, I discuss whether and to what extent UAE state feminism facilitates Emirati women’s empowerment.

Abstract:
Introduction: Cardiovascular disease was the leading cause of death among women in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) in 2010. Heart attacks usually occur at an older age in women compared to men, consequently the atypical symptoms of heart disease that often appear among women are masked by symptoms of other chronic diseases. Non-recognition of symptoms could explain the reason behind delays in seeking healthcare and the high mortality following a heart attack among Emirati women. This study seeks to a) highlight the awareness of heart diseases among Emirati women and b) to understand Emirati women’s healthcare seeking behaviour. Methods: A cross sectional, descriptive study was conducted using a survey instrument adapted from the American Heart Association National survey. A convenience sample of 676 Emirati women between the ages of 18-55 years completed the questionnaire. Results: The study showed low levels of awareness of heart disease and associated risk factors in Emirati women; only 19.4% participants were found to be aware of heart diseases. Awareness levels were highest in Dubai (OR 2.18, p<0.05) among all the other emirates and in the 18-45 years age group (OR 2.74, p<0.05). Despite low awareness levels, women paradoxically perceived themselves to be self-efficacious in seeking healthcare. Interestingly, just 49.1% Emirati women believed that good quality and affordable healthcare was available in the UAE. Only 28.8% of the participants believed there were sufficient female doctors to respond to health needs of women in UAE. Furthermore, only 36.7% Emirati women chose to be treated in the UAE over treatment in other countries. Conclusion: Emirati women clearly lack knowledge on severity and vulnerability to heart disease in the region that is essential to improve cardiovascular related health outcomes. This study has identified the need for wider outreach that focuses on gender and age specific awareness on heart disease risks and symptoms. The study has also highlighted potential modifiable barriers in seeking healthcare that should be overcome to reduce morbidity and mortality due to heart disease among national women of UAE.

Abstract:
We in the College of Education at Zayed University are committed to excellence. With that in mind, we developed a very ambitious project to create an IOS math app to encourage grade six Emirati students to engage with mathematics. Additionally, our project aimed to provide Emirati students (boys and girls) opportunities to explore mathematics based on modules grounded in the Emirati culture. More specifically, the IOS math app contained three modules - Henna (in Arabic حنة ), Prayer Beads (مسبحة), and Bamboo Baskets (سلال البامبو ). The Henna explored geometric transformations; Prayer Beads investigated patterns in Algebra, and Bamboo Baskets examined circumference, diameter, reading a ruler, and where does pi come from. This paper will provide a detail description and project justifications. Along with a short analysis of the grade six Emirati students’ henna designs, as the designs relate to geometric transformations.Keywords: Ethnomathematics. Grade Six. United Arab Emirates.

Abstract:
The number of Gulf students, particularly those from the United Arab Emirates (UAE), who travel specifically to the United Kingdom (UK) for tertiary educational purposes, are continuously increasing. Immigration and sojourning discussions have been informed by concepts of globalisation, postmodern identity and cultural nationalism. This work discusses and draws on such concepts to inform the study, which focuses on acculturation experiences of Emirati student sojourners. Reflecting upon sojourner identities during their time abroad, as well as repatriation experiences when back in the UAE, this study explores cultural identity transformation for Emiratis between two different locations. The samples were of 25 participants in total. Of those, there were 16 UK based sojourners (4 as pilot studies) and 9 UAE repatriates. Different sets of students were interviewed and therefore the sojourners were not the same repatriated students. Their interviews were collected, coded, analysed using deductive thematic analysis, guided by research questions and the theoretical framework, that resulted in the identification of five themes: Emirati cultural identity, Emirati cultural identity affected through acculturation, sojourner acculturative strategies used in the UK, repatriation difficulties and repatriation strategies used upon return to the UAE. A stronger connectivity to the cultural dimensions of Emirati identity resulted in a more successful acculturative outcome, with fewer repatriation challenges for Emirati students. The study aims to extend understanding of cultural identity and acculturation through the data emerging from this investigation. Implications of the study for support of Emirati students in higher education are also explored.

Abstract:
Skilled readers are often characterised as more metacognitively aware than less skilled readers. This thesis reports on findings from a study that explored metacognitive awareness of reading strategy usage of Emirati learners of English as a foreign language (EFL) enrolled in post-secondary educational institutions in the Emirate of Abu Dhabi in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). The research had two key goals: first, to identify participants’ metacognitive awareness of the reading strategies they use when reading academic texts in English and, second, to establish whether there were any identified differences between male and female participants. Together, these goals allow the study to contribute to the development of effective L2 English language development in the UAE. Located within the pragmatic research paradigm, the study involved a mixed methodology and an explanatory sequential design. It consisted of two phases: the first, quantitative phase surveyed 386 students’ metacognitive awareness using the Survey of Reading Strategies (SORS; Mokhtari & Sheorey, 2002) consisting of a 28-item questionnaire. The next, qualitative phase involved a total of 40 participants, who were required to read a selected passage and reflect on their reading and thinking process using a think aloud protocol.

This thesis explored the cultural dimensions of information use of post graduate Emirati students in order to understand how information use is experienced in light of what is revealed when national culture is explored. Seven cultural dimensions of information use became evident in this mixed methods study. This research provides empirical data contributing to the discussion of how culture intersects with information use in higher education. New contributions are provided which underpin the relationship between culture and information use. They also support the design and implementation of pedagogical approaches that recognise cultural diversity of learners.

Abstract:
This study explored the factors which affect the feeding and weaning practices of Emirati mothers as well as the experiences and perceptions which influence their breastfeeding decisions. It used both quantitative and qualitative methods to examine Emirati mothers’ understanding of infant feeding and to identify the factors which appeared to have a relevant effect and locate them in their cultural context. n the survey, a convenientce sample of 593 mothers with infants aged up to 2 years was interviewed face to face in the maternal and child healthcare centers in Al Ain, Dubai and Abu Dhabi. The interview was based on a pretested structured questionnaire. The results of multiple logistic analysis showed that the time of initiation of the first breastfeed was significantly associated with the infant’s birth weight (OR=2.007; P<0.023), parity (OR=2.139; P<0.001) and rooming in (OR=21.70; P<0.001). As for the feeding patterns, the results of the multiple logistic analysis revealed that rooming in (OR=4.485; P<0.001), feeding on demand (OR=2.290; P<0.005) and feeding more frequently at night (P<0.001) emerged as significant factors associated with exclusive or almost exclusive breastfeeding practices. The duration of breastfeeding rate was significantly influenced by many variables. Concerning the duration of lactational amenorrhea, the, the multiple logistic analysis showed that mother's age, breastfeeding duration and the early introduction of formula milk and solid food emerged as significant variables. Among the 593 infants in the study, 24.1% were predominantly breastfed,25% of the infants were exclusively breastfed, and 49.4% were almost exclusively breastfed since birth. Fifteen Emirati mothers from each city were interviewed about their breastfeeding practices, beliefs and perceptions. The following themes emerged: the influence of others, the sources of information, infants’ behavior, knowledge of and attitudes towards current WHO recommendations and mothers’ perception of the benefits of breastfeeding. Health promotions and healthcare facilities failed to deliver the message of the importance of exclusive breastfeeding. Grandmothers and mothers-in-law appeared to influence the mother's breastfeeding practices. In conclusion, there is a need for a national community-based breastfeeding intervention programme for the promoting exclusive breastfeeding practices as part of a primary public health strategy.

Full text
Abstract:
This practice-based thesis focuses on the Emirati burqa or ‘mask’, a form of face covering worn by the majority of Emirati women in the United Arab Emirates until the late 1960s that reveals the eyes but does not cover the hair or body. Framed by Daniel Miller and Aida Kanafani’s theories of material culture and embodiment that focus on dress as an intimate sensory object, this practice-based thesis is the first in-depth study of the Emirati burqa that engages with the histories and materiality of the burqa as an intimate object once made and worn by Emirati women. At the core of this thesis is women’s practice: the practices of women burqa makers, the diverse female practices of burqa wearing and my practice as a woman artist from the UAE. Through experiments with traditional craft materials, inscription methods, workshop initiatives, film, photography and installation, my engagement is with performing the material culture of the female burqa as a response to its disappearing practices and its previously little recorded history. The thesis first analyses the history of the burqa face covering in the Arabian peninsula through a specific focus on the written and visual accounts of mid-nineteenth and mid-twentieth-century British travellers in Arabia. It then examines and records the material craft of Emirati burqa-making based upon interviews with burqa makers and textile producers and accompanying ethnographic fieldwork conducted in the UAE and India. This includes photographic documentation of the processes involved in the production of the burqa textile, a study of burqa manufacturing brands and packaging, and an analysis of the material construction of the burqa and how it is worn in the UAE. Based on interviews in the UAE, Bahrain and Qatar and a variety of visual and textual sources, the thesis identifies the different types of Emirati burqa in relation to age, status, and regional identities. It further shows that the Emirati burqa differs from those worn in the neighbouring Gulf States of Bahrain, Qatar, Oman and Saudi Arabia, and focuses on burqa wearing practices and associated uses of the burqa textile in the UAE. Engaging with these research findings, the culmination of the thesis is the body of art works exhibited in the 2014 London exhibition, ‘An Intimate Object’, that re-animates the burqa as a living object with its own history and new contemporary meanings. Focusing on the significance of the body and senses in knowledge production, the art practice shows the burqa has ‘a voice’ in a conversation that draws upon past traditions referencing protection and its value as a personal and precious object. The burqa speaks, its indigo residue bleeds as an active witness to its lost past. It also plays a part in rediscovery or keeping the past of this material object alive through contemporary art practice as an aesthetic and political strategy.

Abstract:
The university years often overlap with young adulthood which is a key life stage when health behaviours and wellbeing may be compromised. To inform culturally appropriate interventions to address this, there is a need for more research in Arabic speaking populations as research with university students in Western countries may not be generalizable in the Arab world due to socio cultural differences. The aim of this thesis was to understand physical activity, sedentary behaviour and psychological wellbeing in Emirati university students. Study one was a psychometric study of a self-administered version of the Global Physical Activity Questionnaire-Arabic (GPAQ-Arabic). A total of 93 Emirati university students completed the instrument on two occasions 7 days apart, and 48 also wore an accelerometer for 7 days. Test-retest reliability and criterion validity were assessed using Spearman’s rho and Bland-Altman plots. Test-retest reliability was acceptable for moderate to vigorous physical activity (MVPA), but fair for sedentary behaviour. Criterion validity of the MVPA measure was fair. Study two involved the development and psychometric assessment of a domain specific, self-administered, Arabic language, sedentary behaviour questionnaire (The Sitting and Reclining Time Questionnaire-Arabic [SART-A]). A total of 61 Emirati university students completed the instrument on two occasions 7 days apart, and 26 also wore an accelerometer for 7 days. Test-retest reliability and criterion validity were assessed using Spearman’s rho and Bland-Altman plots. Test-retest reliability of the SART-A was acceptable for weekday, weekend day and usual day sedentary behaviour, however the criterion validity of the instrument was less promising. Studies three, four and five used data from a cross-sectional survey study of Emirati university students. A total of 628 participants completed Arabic language questionnaires assessing physical activity; sedentary behaviour; psychological wellbeing; knowledge of physical activity guidelines and mental health benefits, and preferences for activity type and context. Generalised linear modelling was used to assess potential differences in prevalence by gender. Bivariate associations using explanatory variables of age, gender and BMI were also explored for knowledge of physical activity guidelines and mental health benefits, and preferences for activity type and contexts. Almost three-quarters (74%) of students met guidelines of >150 minutes of MVPA/week. Median time spent in sedentary behaviour was 10 hours/day on a usual day, weekday, and weekend day. A total of 69% reported high or very high satisfaction with life. However, 65% also reported depressive symptoms, 69% reported anxiety symptoms, and 46% reported stress. No significant gender differences were found. Only 3% of respondents correctly identified activity guidelines as 150 mins/week MVPA. Most respondents believed that exercise could improve wellbeing (69%), and help manage depression (71%) and anxiety/stress (74%). Women were more likely than men to view exercise as a way to manage depression (p=0.003) and anxiety/stress (p=0.002). A fun element was the most preferred context for physical activities (87.1%). Walking (66.7%) and swimming (61.7%) were the most preferred activity types. Men had significantly higher odds to prefer competitive activities; and football, weights, and jogging. Women had significantly higher odds to prefer activities with people of the same gender, with supervision and done at home; and walking, aerobics, cycling, squash, and yoga. Study six involved five focus groups with female Emirati university students (n=25) to explore barriers to and enablers of physical activity. Emergent themes were identified and analysed using Nvivo software. The main barriers were lack of family support, gender roles associated with family responsibilities, social media use, lack of convenient access to female only facilities, and hot weather. The main enablers were low cost and convenient female only gyms; support via friends, family and social media; and physical activity timetabled within the academic schedule. Study seven was a systematic review and meta-analysis study to assess the efficacy of physical activity interventions to promote wellbeing in university students. Five databases were systematically searched to identify randomised controlled trials. Methodological quality of studies was assessed using Downs and Black scale and quantitative analysis was performed using Revman 5.3 software. A total of 6,138 studies were identified and 11 were included in the final review. Overall, there was a small significant effect of physical activity for depression (standardised mean difference (SMD) 0.47), and anxiety (SMD 0.28). There was no significant effect of physical activity for quality of life. This research program indicates that Emirati university students have high levels of sedentary behaviour, depression and anxiety. Physical activity interventions could be an acceptable and effective way to manage depression and anxiety, however, the majority of students lack knowledge of physical activity guidelines. Interventions should be tailored by gender for context and type and should also consider specific socio-cultural barriers and enablers related to female students’ participation. More research is needed to identify valid self-report measures of MVPA for this population.

Abstract:
Titled: Exploring a Transformative Pedagogy with Blended Learning for Emirati Higher Education Students, this portfolio relates a process of reflective praxis with the development of a pedagogy which was co-constructed with Emirati students. These students were studying in the first cycle of a bachelor's degree in Communications and Media Management at the United Arab Emirate's Higher Colleges of Technology between 2001 and 2004. The portfolio describes this collaborative instructional design project using English as a Second Language (ESL) and constructivist theory, exploratory and web based learning within the formation of a community of !earners via asynchronous !earning networks. Dilemmas of cultural synergy are discussed that may face sojourning Western educators working within the Higher Colleges of Education: the portfolio proposes strategies for the development of an appropriate methodology, responding to the question: I. How to develop a functional pedagogy that is culturally sensitive and relevant to Emirati students? Information technologies provide the opportunity for faculty to develop and augment instructional course design. Within the functional pedagogy proposed in this portfolio is rationalised the requirement to supplement aspects of the pedagogy online. Therefore, the portfolio also propose strategies for the development of a supportive e-learning portal appropriate to this cohort of students, responding to the question: 2. How to develop an e-learning aspect that is supportive of the pedagogy? The portfolio uses two case studies to make a comparative evaluation of the receptivity of students to contrasting modes of teaching approaches, reporting the pedagogic development of a two year undergraduate degree program. Reflective practice and cohort feedback over a two year period produced thick longitudinal feedback from the gender-separated Emirati cohort. This feedback took the form of daily email communication, focus groups, tutorials and questionnaire responses. The portfolio investigation added a major retrospective response with a questionnaire adapted from the established Barker and King model of 1993. (See Appendix H for further academic validation of this model and Appendix F for the developmental feedback from students), Pertinent research and theory are discussed through analysis of the learning outcomes for both the students and faculty participants. Recommendations are made that expatriate Western staff develop awareness to the culturally defined learning needs of the HCT Emirati students. The pedagogy and online learning support were perceived by the cohort as a new style, which responded particularly well to their needs, interest and expectations.

Abstract:
Coffee plays a significant role in today’s Arab culture, and it has long been considered one of the main aspects of Arab history, culture, heritage, and hospitality. It has even been recognized by UNESCO, which added Arabic coffee to its Intangible Cultural Heritage List following the application by several Gulf countries. This study explores the nation-building process of the United Arab Emirates (UAE) through its heritage, with specific reference to the coffee pot (dallah). The UAE forms its national identity (the Emirati identity) by deriving it from a broader identity (that is, being Arab) and defining it to a regional identity (Khaleeji). Moving from a regional to a national identity is intended to unite the seven emirates under one standard identity, but at the same time contain common characteristic features and solidarity with Khaleej and other Arabs. Slight differences to strengthen the desired national (Emirati) identity and differentiate the UAE from the neighbors will be enough in creating national heritage. This study examines how the UAE attempts to create its own heritage, one that is common among its seven emirates, to unite them under one identity. The coffee pot, however, has common features with other Arab and Khaleeji countries, as can be clearly seen from the map. Meanwhile, the process is still in progress, and to date, no consensus has been achieved.

Abstract:
The Country Diagnostic Study (CDS) for United Arab Emirates (U.A.E.) uses the Hausmann-Rodrik-Velasco growth diagnostics model to identify the binding constraints being faced in its quest for higher economic growth and make recommendations to relax these constraints. Hence, the findings of the CDS can help the Islamic Development Bank in identifying areas where it can have a greater impact and provide an evidence basis to support the development of the Member Country Partnership Strategy. U.A.E.’s development journey has been painstakingly crafted over time, with the latest being Vision 2021. Launched in 2010 and in the aftermath of the global financial crisis (GFC), Vision 2021 was designed to place the U.A.E. among the best nations in the world. It has achieved several targets under the competitive knowledge pillar of the Vision, but some key targets related to economic growth, innovation, and knowledge workers are yet to be fully realized. This is because growth has been low and inadequate with relatively low private investment since the 2008–2009 GFC, leading to a lower than potential real GDP trend. To bring in private investment and improve growth, both quantity and quality of human capital may need to be scaled up through improving the education system and spending on research and development to support industry-university collaboration on innovations. Efficient institutional governance in the areas of corruption control, regulatory quality and conducive bureaucracy is necessary for the vibrant functioning of the private sector.

Full text
Abstract:
As the Taliban’s forces swept across Afghanistan in July and August, their triumphalist—and fundamentally revolutionary—discourse became exponentially more pronounced. The moment it seized Kabul, however, the Taliban had to reorder its communications priorities. As Afghanistan’s new de facto government, it needed to expand on what its outreach strategists had been doing to date, i.e., setting out political aspirations, emphasizing military capabilities, and attacking the legitimacy of adversaries. Now, it had to take on a more complex strategic communications task: demonstrating that its new state would be able to follow through on what as a movement it had been promising for decades. Drawing on tens of thousands of data points ingested by ExTrac’s automated crawlers from the Taliban’s online networks on Telegram and Twitter as well as an array of pro-Taliban static websites, this report examines how the fall of Kabul impacted the Taliban’s outreach strategy.

Full text
Abstract:
The United Arab Emirates (UAE) has some of the highest electricity and water consumption rates in the world. A driving factor is the presence of electricity and water subsidies and their impact on the investment in efficiency, technology adoption, and implementation of best practices. Decades of subsidization have made Gulf Cooperation Council businesses some of the world’s most inefficient energy and water consumers, and there is a growing consensus in the UAE that a comprehensive conservation plan is needed. However, for any comprehensive conservation plan to be successful, it must include tariff reform as a cornerstone. The social and political issues associated with tariff reform are not trivial. A comprehensive approach needs to be developed and implemented while energy prices are low and the initial impact on customers can be minimized.
