Recent research have aimed to know the effect of rational inquiry strategy on acquisition basic science processes for second intermediate students in physics. To verify the aim of this research , the researchers added the following zero hypotheses : No statistically significant differences at the level of significance (0.05) between the students mean scores of the two groups on basic science Processes test. The research was carried out on the second intermediate grade male students in Alam Al Yakeen school in Baghdad; belong to Education Directorate Al- Karkh/2, for the Academic Year (2014-2015) A.D. Prepared research requirements included ] selected the scientific subject chapters (6,7,8,9) from physics textbook, the formulation of behavioral objectives, prepared instructional plans for the experimental groups and control groups[ , after the presentation to a group of specialists . The researchers applied research tools by themself, and he adopts basic science processes test for (Qaisi ,2012) within the limits of his research, consists of (24) items of multiple choice and alternatives (4) by (8) paragraphs for each mental process, namely, (observation, measurement, classification, inference, prediction, communication, use of numbers, use the relationships of space and time). The research sample was selected intentionally by the researcher which consisted of (69) male students, randomized into two groups (35) students in experimental group and (34) students in control group. The two groups students have been equalization by the following variables: (Pre physics knowledge, physics scores at mid-year, age in month, basic science processes pre- test). Experimental group students studied by using rational inquiry strategy and the control group students studied by using traditional method, one of the researchers studied the two research groups by him two lessons per week. Research tool, were applied, basic science processes test to the students of the two groups, after completion the study of Physics chapters under research. Statistical tools used to deal with the results. The results showed (There is a statistically significant difference) between the experimental & control group students on basic science processes test, favor the experimental group students. According to mentioned above , the researchers had a number of recommendations which including to use in rational inquiry strategy teaching physics. In light of the results, researchers suggested a researcher that made conduct the effect of " rational inquiry strategy" on other variables and its effect on other science subjects
Translating culture-specific proverbs (CSPs) is a challenging task since they often occur in a peculiar context. Further, CSPs are intended to imply meanings that extend far beyond the literal meaning of such a kind of proverbs. As far as English and Arabic are concerned, translators often encounter problems in translating CSPs due to cultural differences between the source language(SL) and the target language (TL) as well as what seems to be the lack of equivalence for some CSPs.
In view of this, the present study aims at investigating the translation of CSPs in three English-Arabic dictionaries of proverbs, namely Dictionary of Common English Proverbs Translated and Explained (2004), One thousand and One English Pr

Because it is difficult to accept direct criticism, Satire appears as a literary tool in which vices, follies, abuses and shortcomings are held up to ridicule, with the intent of shaming individuals, corporations, government, or society itself into improvement. A satirical critic usually employs irony to attain this goal. Although satire is usually meant to be humorous, its greater purpose is often profitable social criticism, using wit to draw at

Purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship between Advertising Appeals, Attitudes toward Advertising, and Consumer Buying Behavior for Smart Phone The study was carried out on the students of Middle East University (MEU) In Amman- Jordan. A measurement scales with acceptable reliability and validity is developed to capture the dimensions of study variables. Four hypotheses were tested using Statistical package (SPSS-17). A two-step detailed statistical analysis of data was involved. First, descriptive statistics was performed to understand the underlying components of study variables; second, regression analysis and Path analysis using AMOS 7 were performed t

That is why they attribute such a high value to it, and the fear of the system's absence makes it inevitable for it to have continuity, for we live in a world full of surprises, rapid changes, confusion, and confusing
Atorvastatin calcium (ATR) is an antihyperlipidemic agent used for lowering blood cholesterol levels. However, it is very slightly soluble in water with poor oral bioavailability, which interferes with its therapeutic action. It is classified as a class II drug according to Biopharmaceutical Classification System (low solubility and high permeability).
Abstract This study aims to discover the ways that adopted by extremism to expand to new geographical areas, in order to spread out its ideology, which led to create new geo-strategic zone, aims to recognize ISIS’s strategy to move towards new geographic locations and the motivations behind these transformations, the study also analyses all aspects of this strategy, the group’s relationship with other terrorist groups in these areas and limits of the competition between them. The study also highlights the factors that have led ISIS to move to new geographical areas and its techniques to control them.
