8. READABILITY OF TEXTBOOK VS LINUS SCREENING TEXT: IMPLICATION ON YEAR 4 POST LINUS PUPILS

Author

Charles, Cleopatra, Yunus, Melor Md, Charles, Cleopatra, and Yunus, Melor Md

Abstract

Reading is one of the most important skills that need to be acquired. Due to this the Malaysian government implemented the LINUS programme in school to help pupils master the basic skill involved English. The problems for most LINUS pupils come after they pass their LINUS screening. They were not able to read most materials in the text and read with difficulty. It is hoped that by finding the readability level of the texts in the textbook and the LINUS screening it will shed a light on how teacher could handle the problems. For this study 6 texts; 3 from each the Textbook and LINUS screening respectively was chosen randomly. The texts were calculated using the SMOG, FOG, Flesch-Kincaid and Spache formula to obtain their readability level. Spearman correlation test was conducted to see the consistency between the readability formulas in predicting the difficulty level. It is found that the texts in the textbook is more difficult compared to the LINUS texts.

12. Challenges in the Use of Performance Data in Management: Results of a National Survey of Human Service Nonprofit Organizations.

Abstract

Nonprofit organizations are increasingly pressured to measure their performance. Although several studies identify driving factors of measuring performance in public organizations, there is limited understanding of current performance management practices at nonprofit organizations. Drawing from an online survey of mid- to large-sized nonprofit human service organizations across the United States, this research examines: (1) the types of performance information human service nonprofits measure; (2) the frequency of using performance data; and (3) the challenges nonprofits commonly face integrating performance data into management. Our empirical evidence suggests that human service nonprofits must recognize that data collected to meet external accountability requirements, often mandated by government or funders, may not provide meaningful information that organizations can use to enhance performance. We also discuss the nuanced role tangible incentives play in nonprofit performance management. The article concludes by highlighting the need for nonprofit managers and grant makers to work together to develop measures that meet both accountability and performance improvement aims.

13. As despesas municipais em saúde impactam as Internações por Condições Sensíveis à Atenção Primária (ICSAP)? Uma análise em municípios de Minas Gerais.

Author

dos Santos, Lucas Maia, Gonçalves, Márcio Augusto, Charles, Cleopatra, dos Santos, Lucas Maia, Gonçalves, Márcio Augusto, and Charles, Cleopatra

Abstract

O objetivo deste artigo foi avaliar o efeito das despesas municipais de saúde, com foco na atenção básica, sobre a porcentagem de Internações por Condições Sensíveis à Atenção Primária (ICSAP). Por meio de um modelo de efeitos fixos, analisamos a população de 853 municípios do Estado de Minas Gerais, durante os anos de 2004 a 2013. Os resultados mostraram que as despesas municipais em saúde são importantes para a variação da porcentagem de ICSAP, juntamente com saneamento básico e grupos de indivíduos específicos, especialmente, crianças e gestantes. No entanto, os resultados mostraram que aumentar o investimento municipal em saúde não seria a alternativa mais eficaz, dado que para obter uma redução mínima unitária das ICSAP seria necessário um aumento, relativamente, elevado no nível de investimentos per capita em saúde.

17. Nonprofit Arts Organizations: Debt Ratio Does Not Influence Donations—Interest Expense Ratio Does.

Abstract

Due to increased competition for scarce resources, scholars and practitioners have been devoting more attention to identifying the factors that drive private contributions to nonprofit organizations in recent years. This study aims to investigate whether capital structure decisions made by nonprofit managers have an impact on future contributions from individual donors. More specifically, it asks whether debt is associated with a reduction in future financial support. This study relies on data derived from the DataArts Cultural Data Profile to answer this question. It utilizes a log-log model where the dependent variable is defined as total private contributions in the current period. Results indicate that an increase in the interest expense to total expense ratio is associated with a decrease in future contributions. A nonprofit’s debt to assets ratio, however, does not have a statistically significant impact on future contributions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
