This research is for the purpose of constructing curriculums and solutions for beginner-level of percussion skill teaching. The researcher, in view of percussion learning difficulty, establishes "the national elementary school percussion teaching curriculums", containing percussion learning methods and key points in teaching. This research utilizes 12 fifth-graders from WuTang Elementary School in Pingdong County as study object. With tools such as class evaluation records, class activity records, teachers-students interaction records, to carries out complete observation records, which leads to a complete curriculum involving five mail subject units and 16 teaching units, over a total of eight weeks, 32 classes. Upon completion of this curriculum, 13 concrete methods were developed to improve problems with the fundamentals such as improper grasps of drum sticks, which may effectively address and solve beginners¡¦ learning-related problems; In order to improve teaching progress, the researcher also proposed that the learners become familiarized with the 16 percussion key points, such as the music melody etc..

Many actors claim results to be at the heart of their operations and to apply the Result-Based Management (RBM) approach in delivering humanitarian assistance, yet few are capable of clearly defining what it means and the long-term effects of this approach. Although seemingly simple from an outsider's perspective, the long-going debate on how to best measure and handle results demonstrate the complexity of the issue. This research examines how the RBM approach can be used by a humanitarian donor and looks specifically at the humanitarian unit (HUM) at Sida's methods for measuring results. It demonstrates that the difficulty in operationalizing ambitious goals and the lack of clarity of objectives hinder HUM from using results management to its full potential, especially when it comes to using the learning component to inform decision-making. The kind of results obtained depended on the reporting mechanisms and the partnership approach used at HUM facilitates the assessment of results; HUM's extensive knowledge of their partner's work is a comparative advantage which is not part of the RBM approach.

Nietzsche’s view of the self and will seems to culminate in a naturalistic account of human agency. If we understand Nietzsche as primarily a naturalist who thinks philosophy should more or less be modeled on the sciences whose investigations are restricted to empirical observation and whose explanations, like causal explanation, are natural (rather than supernatural), then ascribing a naturalistic account of human agency to Nietzsche is appropriate. However, I argue that attributing a naturalistic account of agency, or any account of agency to Nietzsche, misunderstands Nietzsche’s skepticism. I attempt to demonstrate the primacy of Nietzsche’s skepticism by showing how “his” naturalistic “account” of agency is best understood as an instrument in the service of his purely critical and deflationary project. To show the instrumental character of his “account,” I show how the account is used to oppose traditional notions of agency without itself becoming Nietzsche’s theory of agency.
