This literature review describes web indicators for the impact of books, software, datasets, videos and other non-standard academic outputs. Although journal articles dominate academic research in the health and natural sciences, other types of outputs can make equally valuable contributions to scholarship and are more common in other fields. It is not always possible to get useful citation-bas...

The purpose of this study is to seek an interactive pedagogical model in teaching graphic design in higher education. Malcolm Shepherd Knowles, an American adult educator, adopted the theory of ‘Andragogy’ which focused on self-directed learning theories.
