In this book, we put forward a holistic conceptual framework for
implementing Scholarship of Learning and Teaching (SoLT) in higher
education. Unlike previous SoLT studies, which usually focus on a
specific aspect, here various aspects are integrated into a
holistic framework. Further, it identifies three main stakeholders,
namely, the higher education institution, teaching staff, and
students. These stakeholders are in turn connected by four
interlocking themes: staff professional development, enhancement of
student learning experiences, assessment, and digital technologies.
Presenting chapters that address these four themes, this book
supports the advancement of SoLT in higher education in relation to
existing theories and emerging practices. By helping academics and
leaders in higher education to implement SoLT for the improvement
of student learning and teaching practices, it also makes a
valuable contribution to the field of teacher education.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 15th
International Conference on Network and System Security, NSS 2021,
held in Tianjin, China, on October 23, 2021. The 16 full and 8
short papers presented in this book were carefully reviewed and
selected from 62 submissions. They focus on theoretical and
practical aspects of network and system security, such as
authentication, access control, availability, integrity, privacy,
confidentiality, dependability and sustainability of computer
networks and systems.
Pivotal to Asia's future will be the robustness of its medical
universities. Lessons learned in the past and the challenges facing
these schools in the future are outlined in this collection, which
offers valuable insights for other medical education systems as
well. The populations in these rapidly growing countries rely on
healthcare systems that can vigorously respond to the concerns of
shifting demographics, disease, and epidemics. The collected works
focus on the education of physicians and health professionals,
policy debates, cooperative efforts, and medical education reform
movements.
This book is a progressive exposition on Halliday's academic
thought and its origins by the renowned linguist Hu Zhuanglin,
based on 30 years of research. The first part, "Chinese Origin,"
introduces readers to the author's gradual understanding that
Halliday's academic thought mainly came from Chinese scholars such
as Wang Li, Luo Changpei, and Gao Mingkai. In 1980s, Halliday and
his students introduced the theory of Systemic Functional
Linguistics into the foreign language and linguistics circles in
China; thus, Halliday's academic thought returned to where it
originated. The second part, "A Discussion of Theories," mainly
addresses the author's experience and further discussions after
learning Halliday's theory. The theme of the third part is
"Discourse Analysis" and focuses on the greatest difference between
Systemic Functional Linguistics and traditional grammar—sentence
grammar. Halliday emphasizes the study of "discourse," and
sentences are only the embodiment of discourse at the next level.
The fourth part, "The Study of Chinese," applies Halliday's
linguistic theory to the evolution of the research of the Chinese
language in China, which can better explain the theme of "return"
and is of great significance for Chinese scholars' understanding
and application of Halliday's academic thought. Â
Petroleum polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are hazardous
environmental pollutants, and PAH exposure causes public health
risks and raises environmental concerns. While it has been
demonstrated that PAHs could be degraded by many bacterial
isolates, little is known about PAH degradation by yeast,
especially for high molecular weight (HMW) PAHs. In this study, the
performance of isolated yeast strains to degrade HMW-PAHs was
investigated in liquid culture, slurry reactor and different
biological wastewater treatment systems. The meta- genomics
techniques such as fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH), 16S r
RNA gene clone libraries and denaturing gradient gel
electrophoresis (DGGE) of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplified
16S and 26S rRNA genes were used to study microbial structure
dynamics. Variations of some functional genes (nahAc & C230)
responsible for the degradation of aromatic compounds were also
followed. The book is important for both students and researchers
wishing to increase their understanding in the field of petroleum
biodegradation and environmental meta-genome biotechnology.
