Denna studie handlar om den matematiska strategin bar modeling som är tagen från undervisingen i Singapores skolor. Syftet med studien är undersöka om bar modeling fungerar som matematisk strategi och hur eleverna upplever arbetssättet. Utöver att studera metoden i praktiken studeras också hur lärarna uppfattar bar modeling.        För att studera bar modeling och vad lärare har att säga om arbetssättet har två metoder använts; fem observationer av elevgrupper och fem intervjuer med lärare. Detta för att ta reda på elevernas respektive lärarnas uppfattning om metoden.     Resultatet i studien visar att lärarna är överrens om att bar modeling mycket väl kan hjälpa många elever vid problemlösningar. Alla lärare ser det simpla sättet att förenkla svåra och komplicerade matematiska problem som metodens största fördel. Observationerna av elevgrupperna visade att metoden underlättade processen av att lösa problemet när uppgifter var matematiskt utmanande. Något lärarna såg som en nackdel är att det kan vara svårt att få med en hel skola eller i alla fall sitt arbetslag att börja arbeta med den nya metoden. Vidare visade också resultatet från observationerna att metoden gav ett bra stöd vid problemlösningar som är mer utmanande rent kunskapsmässigt.

人際關係或個人之間的互動過程，長期以來是國際關係裡較少關注的面向或被預設為相同的假設而忽略的部分，但在受到中華文化影響並以華人為人口主體的兩岸三地乃至新加坡，關係與人際情誼有重要的影響力。本研究認為「人際關係與情誼」在國家之間的雙邊關係上扮演了一定的角色，為了進一步分析人際關係與情誼在雙邊關係的作用與效果，本研究擬將人際關係與國際關係進行連結化分析，並且試圖建立「人際關係與國際邦誼路徑圖」以作為研究途徑，討論人際關係如何建立、強化，乃至深化國際邦誼，又當人際關係產生分歧、惡化時如何讓雙邊關係倒退，並結合華人的背景與文化，進行案例的研究與討論。 本研究分為三部分：第一部份在建立人際關係與國際邦誼路徑圖，旨在完整地描繪人際發展的起承轉合，以作為第二部分案例研究時的架構及依據；第二部份以第一部份所建立的人際關係與國際邦誼路徑圖為基礎，將臺星關係的發展依時序按照臺灣領導人的更迭分為四組進行案例研究；最後一部分在比較四組案例人際關係的互動差異，並為臺灣未來在對外政策提供建議。 過去因為臺灣與新加坡的特殊關係，不僅讓臺灣在對外關係上有所突破，新加坡更在促進兩岸關係的和平發展上，扮演了至關重要的角色，從1993年的辜汪會談到2015年的馬習會均選擇在新加坡，從李光耀到李顯龍，這對父子成為緊張兩岸關係裡唯一受雙方信任的第三國。 人際情誼是臺灣在對外關係，尤其在對東南亞關係上扮演至關重要的角色。對於外交處境艱難的臺灣而言，找到自身在區域中，尤其是受到華人文化影響的次區域裡無可取代的角色，尤其關鍵。 / Inter-personal relations and its process have been greatly overlooked and oversimplified in analysis of international relations, besides its impacts on daily international life. In the Chinese civilization, inter-personal relations are essential regarding social process. Besides, Inter-personal relations are playing crucial rule in those states, including R.O.C. (Taiwan), P.R.C. and Singapore have strongly affect by the Chinese civilization and culture. In order to analyze the relations between Inter-personal relations and international relations, my thesis is trying to establish a roadmap of inter-personal relations and international relations that can improve our understanding how inter-personal relations affect international relations on the basis of Chinese culture. The thesis will divided into three parts. The first part is the building of roadmap of inter-personal relations and international relations. The second part use the roadmap of inter-personal relations and international relations to analyze the following chapter of case studies that examining the interpersonal relations between state leaders of Taiwan and Singapore. The last part is the conclusion of the thesis and the suggestions for policy makers in Taiwan.

This thesis is based upon ethnographic research conducted in Singapore between September 2008 and October 2009 and over a decade of observation and experience as an expatriate woman. It explores the relationship between two migrant women, an expatriate woman and a migrant domestic worker (MDW), focusing on interrelated processes shaping migrant subjectivities. The relationship between between 'upper circuit' transnational elites and 'lower circuit' migrants is an area of transnationalism that has received little attention. Yet, expatriates and MDWs routinely live together. I consider how overlapping transnational fields impact how both groups of women deal with class, racial and cultural differences and how they negotiate versions of femininity in their domestic interactions. I argue that the women‘s dual migrant status renders visible coexisting and competing forms of power that are often overlooked in studies of domestic work. A crucial aspect of my research design is that I include the perspectives of both expatriate women and MDWs as well as those of expatriate men. Most studies of domestic work focus on either the employer‘s (usually female) or the employee‘s (usually female) viewpoint and overlook male influence on household dynamics and the shaping of domestic femininities. My approach allows for a richer analysis of how class, racial/ethnic and sexual positionings (among others) both motivate and constrain how individuals identify themselves vis-à-vis 'others' across national, racial, class and cultural divides. My findings are organised along four dimensions. First, I examine how shared migrant status is utilised by expatriate women and MDWs in their respective distance-making processes. Second, I explain how through performing domestic labour both groups of women are 'doing' different versions of femininity that are simultaneously accomplishments of class and racial identities. Third, I focus on how sexualised and racialised discourses about migrant women‘s bodies permeate expatriate women‘s and MDWs‘ relationships. Finally, I link my study of the micro-politics of migrant women‘s relationships with the larger context of increasing transnational migration and globalisation.

This study examines the effects of delisting on firm value, risk and market liquidity. In a world where markets are becoming increasingly integrated, delistings may prove counter productive. We use the unique event, free from company specifics, that occurred on January 2, 1990 in the stock exchanges of Singapore and Malaysia to test for the above effects. On that day, dual listed companies were required to delist from the foreign stock exchange. We also use this event to test if the Singapore and Malaysia markets are globally integrated. Since financial data is found to show persistence in volatility, we model the return generating process in a generalized autoregressive conditionally heteroskedastic (GARCH) framework that takes into consideration changing volatility. For comparison purposes, OLS and Time-Deformation models are included. The study found delistings to decrease firm value, the size of which is related to how actively the stocks were previously traded on the foreign stock exchange. Risk levels increased following delistings. Nevertheless, thinly traded stocks showed significant changes in neither firm value nor riskiness. Further evidence of new listings to increase firm value was noted. Consistent with the political motive hypothesis, delisted stocks showed an increase in post-event volume, but however, lost relative liquidity compared with other stocks. While all portfolios considered show evidence for existence of conditional heteroskedasticity, comparison with standard OLS event-study results yields similar conclusions, although the return generating models with GARCH errors result in lower abnormal return variances. As for the time-deformation model, trading volume was found to be a good proxy for rate of information flow only for smaller capitalized stocks. Correlation and regression analyses showed that the Singapore and Malaysia markets are integrated to some degree with the international markets, such that a major delistings event between both markets did not change the pricing of risk in these markets.

The successful economic growth and the rapid changing of urban development had changed Singapore from a developing to a developed country. The living environment of Singapore has been changed with in the last 25 years. My thesis mainly describes foods and food markets in Singapore. Due to better educational background, higher consumption power and small family planning, the eating habit of Singaporeans has changed. A lot of young Singaporeans today, don't buy their daily marketing needs from the traditional wet market for they prefer to do their weekly marketing in the comfortable, clean, convenient and air conditioned modern supermarket. With the advance electronic cooking equipment in kitchen, they save time in cooking to buy prepared or instant cooked food from supermarkets, instead of raw foodstuff from the traditional wet markets. These rapid changes of the Singaporeans' life style and eating habit created an opportunity. For me to look into the area that directly or indirectly involved with my professional work as a practicing graphic designer and a design educator. The area I am looking into is 'the value of food packaging'. I realized that the contrast of the traditional foodstuffs selling in traditional wet market and the imported foodstuffs displayed within the modern supermarket, the difference has signaled a strong message. If the traditional foodstuffs still does not improve their dull and unhygienic image to catch up with the rapid changing urban living environment. They will disappear from our dining table sooner or later. My thesis has to reach 2 aims. Firstly, to awake the design students (tomorrow's designer). To be more sensitive towards the local traditional food markets. Discover the values of the local ethnic foodstuffs and going to find out why these delicious and remarkable local foodstuffs been rejected outside of the modern supermarket. To create a new image through packaging design to replace with the original dull and unhygienic image. Secondly, the contents and the criterias of the modern packaging design I proposed within this thesis, could be applicable in the practicing design field, food manufactory and most importantly, in the design institutions / Master of Design (Hons)
