A Scoping Study Into Perceptions of Phonological Pedagogy in Rural Ghana

By: Christopher John Counihan

Ghana's education system is in a state of transition. Since the introduction of the Free and Compulsory Universal Basic Education (FCUBE) initiative in 1995, the country has struggled to meet with the demands of providing accessible schooling for children at any level. Moreover, with the underdevelopment of early year's and primary provision, more children face slipping through the net. The battle to get children into schools and keep them there is proving to be problematic across the country. As a result, children are losing out on vital core learning experiences, particularly literacy. English is the medium of instruction in Ghana and is taught in schools from the primary level. However, with a blend of English and mother tongue instruction, children are finding it significantly harder to grasp the basic skills. As a result, support from NGOs and teaching professionals have sought to find practical solutions through vis à vis and reciprocal partnerships.

Unsolved Problems in Astrophysics

By: John N. Bahcall,Jeremiah P. Ostriker

The field of astrophysics is in the midst of a technological renaissance. The emphasis of this collection of essays, composed by a stellar group of astronomers and astrophysicists, is on the current state of our knowledge as a preparation for future unraveling of more mysteries of the universe, which appear most amenable to solution. Aspiring atrophysicists will be enthralled.

The Action Plan for Australian Lizards and Snakes 2017

By: Nicola Mitchell,Neil Cox,Philip Bowles,Reid Tingley,Stewart Macdonald,Glenn Shea,J Scott Keogh,John Woinarski,David Chapple

Lizards and snakes (squamate reptiles) are the most diverse vertebrate group in Australia, with approximately 1000 described species, representing about 10% of the global squamate diversity. Squamates are a vital part of the Australian ecosystem, but their conservation has been hindered by a lack of knowledge of their diversity, distribution, biology and key threats. The Action Plan for Australian Lizards and Snakes 2017 provides the first comprehensive assessment of the conservation status of Australian squamates in 25 years. Conservation assessments are provided for 986 species of Australian lizards and snakes (including sea snakes). Over the past 25 years there has been a substantial increase in the number of species and families recognised within Australia. There has also been an increase in the range and magnitude of threatening processes with the potential to impact squamates. This has resulted in an increase in the proportion of the Australian squamate fauna that is considered Threatened. Notably over this period, the first known extinction (post-European settlement) of an Australian reptile species occurred – an indication of the increasingly urgent need for better knowledge and management of this fauna. Six key recommendations are presented to improve the conservation management and plight of Australian squamates. This Action Plan represents an essential resource for research scientists, conservation biologists, conservation managers, environmental consultants, policy makers from Commonwealth and State/Territory governments, and the herpetological community.
