In Pakistan, whether to enforce a 4-year BDS course versus a 5-year course, is a matter of debate that warrants multiple deliberations. In USA and Canada, dentistry is 4-year long course but students can apply for admission into dental school only when they have already done 16 years of schooling (i.e. a 4-years of graduate university education is the pre-requisite). On the other hand, In UK & Ireland, students can apply for admission into dental colleges with 12-years of high school education. However, they follow a 5-years BDS programme. Similarly, there is much difference on the emphasis on various subjects taught in the dental programmes. This paper critically appraises the PMDC and HEC advised BDS curricula in Pakistan and suggests an alternative curriculum that is more balanced in terms of subject distribution, assessment and above all contemporary to cater the evolving needs of the dynamic discipline of dentistry.

Financial education is one of the most recent themes in the scope of public policies, given its elevated capacity to generate positive external effects (LUSARDI, 2006). The challenge created with its integration into the National Common Curricular Base (BNCC) in 2020 hints at this relevance. It became the apex among several areas of knowledge, by becoming part of a series of subjects included in the Primary and High School Education curriculum. The idea is that this movement leads to a reformulation of the Basic Education curriculum through the efforts of all subnational entities, aimed at preparing pedagogical projects at schools that include financial education (BANCO CENTRAL DO BRASIL, 2013).

Interdisciplinary Study

Objectives: We assessed whether social inequalities in smoking observed among young adults born in Canada were also apparent in same-age immigrants. Methods: Data were drawn from an investigation of social inequalities in smoking conducted in an urban setting (Montreal, Canada). The sample included 2077 young adults age 18 to 25 (56.6% female; 18.9% immigrants who had lived in Canada 11.6 (SD 6.4) years on average). The association between education and current smoking was examined in multivariable logistic regression analyses conducted separately in young adults born in Canada and in immigrants. Results: About 19.5% of immigrants were current smokers compared to 23.8% of young adults born in Canada. In immigrants, relative to those with university education, the adjusted odds ratios (OR) (95% confidence interval) for current smoking were 1.2 (0.6, 2.3) among those with pre-university/vocational training and 1.5 (0.7, 2.9) among those with high school education. In non-immigrants, the adjusted ORs were 1.9 (1.4, 2.5) among those with pre-university/vocational training and 4.0 (2.9, 5.5) among those with high school. Conclusion: Young adults who had immigrated to Canada did not manifest the strong social gradient in smoking apparent in young adults born in Canada. Increased understanding of the underpinnings of this difference could inform development of interventions that aim to reduce social inequalities in smoking.

Land Titles

This paper presents land claimants' experiences in acquiring land titles under the sporadic and LAMP land titling schemes. Data were gathered using an interview schedule. Respondents were land claimants from the pilot areas of LAMP-PIO I. Most of them were old, married obtained high school education, and had annual income that fell below the poverty line. Findings showed that under tha LAMP scheme, claimants were able to get their title within about a year. On the other hand, it took an average of 7 years for land claimants to get their title in the sporadic scheme. Respondents who claimed that the LAMP scheme is more effective said that it is faster, cheaper and most importantly, has more systematic procedures.

Main Thing

Understanding the recirculation system as an environmentally friendly ecosystem-based fish farming method is the main thing that fish cultivators can apply in achieving sustainable fish farming. The objective of this research was to determine the perceptions of the fish cultivator community about the recirculation system. This research uses a quantitative approach with descriptive research methods. There are 21 respondents of which 19.05% with junior high school education and 80.95% senior high school. Respondents had more than 10 years as fish farmers. The results showed that the majority of respondents had a good perception of the recirculation system (57.10%) and the minority had a poor perception (42.90%). Furthermore, the perception of willingness to adopt a recirculation system, the majority of respondents did not have a willingness to adopt, 57.10% and a minority had a willingness to adopt 42.90%. In this study, it can be concluded that the understanding and knowledge of fish cultivators regarding the benefits and advantages of the recirculation system in fish farming will encourage good perceptions, on the other hand, if fish farmers have minimal understanding and knowledge, the majority of fish cultivators have doubts and a lack of willingness to adopt the recirculation system.

This paper aims to present how education for geoheritage and geodiversity should take place both in the school curriculum and in extracurricular activities at all levels of Romanian education (middle school, high school and university). The research method consisted in applying two questionnaires (10 questions, most with answers to choose from) both to pre-university teachers (especially those in geography) and students/graduates (especially from geography faculties in the country). The obtained results demonstrate the existence of two different visions: for middle and high school education, education on geoheritage and geodiversity takes place sometimes formally (based on curriculum hours according to the school’s decision) but predominantly informally (based on practical field applications), with most schools educationally limited in terms of environment/sustainable development; in contrast, university education on these subjects has a formal character (based on dedicated courses or field practice modules). The results, although encouraging for the moment, show that there is a need to intensify awareness and education on geoheritage and geodiversity at all levels, especially in higher education, by introducing specific courses/content at all universities in the country.

High School Library

Traditionally, the main clients of high school library are the faculty and students in the school; and the main purpose of high school library is providing educational resources. Because examinations strongly affect high school education, the restricted functions of the high school library are book delivery and holding exhibitions. If the high school library could enhance marketing and open to the community around the school, in one hand we can expand library service, in the other hand we can unite the functions of school education and social education via abundant community resources, create concrete school and social culture, make cooperative relationship between high school and community.
