This study aimed to explore the perceptions of secondary school teachers in the State of Qatar toward the criteria for designing and evaluating e-learning  and educational software in education in the independent secondary schools. A questionnaire was designed and validated, and was administered to a sample of 400 male and female secondary independent school teachers. The results revealed the following: High agreement among most of the teachers about the importance of the instructional design criteria for e-learning and educational software. A significant difference was found between male and female teachers in favor of male teachers; and a significant difference was found between those who attended computer workshops only and those who attended computer workshops plus ICDL, in favor of the latter group. No significant interactions were found for: gender by years of experience;  gender by computer workshops; gender by major; years of experience by major; years of experience by computer workshops; and computer workshops by major. The results were interpreted and some recommendations and future studies were suggested

This study aimed to identify teachers' implicit beliefs about the creativity of learners in primary, middle, and secondary schools and explore the differences in implicit beliefs according to the teacher's gender, specialization, training, and experience. The study participant’s comprised 200 male and female teachers from primary, middle and secondary schools in the State of Kuwait during the 2018-2019 academic year. The study tools consisted of the Electronic Measure of the Teachers' Implicit Beliefs of Creativity. The results showed that developmental beliefs were the most prevailing beliefs among the teachers, followed by the environmental beliefs; and, finally beliefs about personality traits. Also, the study found no statistical differences in the implicit beliefs of creativity attributed to the gender or specialization of the teacher. Furthermore, implicit beliefs about creativity attributed to training favor those who received training on creativity and differences attributed to years of experience, in favor of teachers with more experience (10-15 years). Moreover, the results showed differences in implicit beliefs of creativity that can be attributed to the educational stage in favor of the secondary school. The study presented a set of recommendations for training teachers about creativity and how to deal with creative students.

Crioceris12-punctata, Linn, is an introduced species, and has been working northward from Maryland, according to Professor J.B. Smith, who some time ago informed me that it was present in New Jersey, and would in time reach Connecticut. The first speciment recorded from the State was taken by a student assistant June, 16th, 1902, who collected a single speciment on asparagus upon the Station grounds in New Haven. On May 23rd, 1903, I took male and female specimens from the same locality. We may now expect this species to become thoroughly established here as a pest of asparagus, beetle, C. asparagi, Linn.

A New Species

Only three species of Trichomyia Haliday have been recorded in Mexico. Trichomyia cirrata Coquillett, 1902, is recognized by its female characteristics, T. fairchildi Vargas and D az-N jera, 1953, was described based only on the wing and must be considered as species inquirenda, and T. maldonadoi (Vargas, 1953), which was described based on one female specimen. Specimens of Trichomyia collected in the states of Campeche, Yucatan, and Oaxaca, Mexico, allowed this female to be associated with the male of T. brevitarsa (Rapp, 1945), thus providing a first report of this species in Mexico. Consequently, T. maldonadoi is proposed as a synonym of T. brevitarsa. Additionally, a new species of Trichomyia from the state of Veracruz, Mexico, is described and illustrated based on the male and female characteristics.

The Impact

The study aims to know the Impact of gender on the use of cybercafé. The study focused on the frequency and purpose of using cybercafé by male and female users. It also focused on the problems encountered by male and female users while using Internet at cybercafé. An aggregate of 450 copies of questionnaires were circulated to the cybercafé user, of which 416 properly filled questionnaires were returned. Data was analyzed using SPSS 21.0 version. It was observed that male users had a long history of using cybercafé than female counterparts (p<.000). The data also indicate that there is an association between the frequency of visit to the cybercafé and the gender (p<.000). High cost of Internet services (74.2%), noisy environment in and around the cybercafé (55.76%) and slow Internet connection (49.75%) at cybercafé were major problems faced by the cybercafé users.
