چکیده
This qualitative case study discusses a personal experience of using several online activities with a group of adult students. The study illustrates how an online environment can supplement face-to-face teaching to produce greater significant learning experience for students. The online environment was based on using open source learning management systems. The study examines a group of post graduate adult students’ perceptions on their first interaction using active pedagogy in an online environment. The study demonstrates that the environment is well accepted by students and had greatly contributed to their lifelong learning skills such as communication and critical thinking skills. In this environment students were engaged in attaining six learning goals that are in line with Fink’s “Taxonomy of Significant Learning” [1]. This study is an encouragement for the adoption of blended learning at local institutions.

Alternative Assessments and EFL Learner Autonomy
Alternative assessments have evolved from an epistemological change in education. They see assessment and instruction as two sides on the same coin which go hand in hand. The traditional roles of both teachers and learners are, consequently, modified which is essential for better language development. In this line, the present study aimed at comparing the effects of portfolio and journal writin...

Linearization of M-LINC Systems Using GMP and Particle Swarm Optimization for Wireless Communications
In this paper, an efficient algorithm for the efficiency maximization of the multilevel linear amplification using nonlinear components (M-LINC) systems is proposed regarding the linearity of the system. In this algorithm, we use the generalized memory polynomial (GMP) to provide a behavioral model for the power amplifier (PA) and calculate the power spectral density (PSD) of the output signal ...
