The writer then presents a proposal to study the issue using the phenomenographic research method, a qualitative research approach. The study is based on the transcript of a forum group, using a semi-structured questionnaire (the transcript is not included). The writer provides an analysis of the results, showing the issues that emerged from the interview are the same as have been presented in the literature. The third section of this paper is a self-analysis of listening skills. While the interview was conducted in Australia, the text is applicable in any country. Bibliography lists 10 sources.

US. Versus Egypt: Role Of Culture And Religion In Education
[ send me this paper ]
15 pages in length. Obtaining an education does not reflect a level playing field across the globe; rather, the varying nature of cultural and religious influences serve to dictate the who, what, where, when and why of academic achievement. To compare America and Egypt where such influences are concerned is not unlike weighing apples against oranges, inasmuch gender oppression, social status and underlying reasons for seeking an education separate the two very different approaches. Unlike the United States where culture and religion are two separate entities, Egypt's influences are primarily one and the same in both a social and educational aspect. Bibliography lists 17 sources.
