Remembering Wang Fo-wen, educator and scholar a brief look at his prominent career and the influence of John Deweys educational philosophy

Xing Hong, Ina Zhang

Abstract

Wang Fo Wen (1903 1972) w as a prominent educator in Malaysia’s education history, distinguishedin particular by an incredible career of some four decades in Malay(si)an Chinese education. Studying in the Southeast University in Nanking of China where he was trained as a bilingual educationist, Wang Fo Wen was imbued with the teaching principles of renowned American educator John Dewey and his Chinese student Tao Hsing chih; and upon graduation, Wang signed up for “overseas Chinese education” and was sent to British Malaya (then to Dutch Indonesia) to teach in Chinese high schools in the 1922s. This paper traces Wang Fo Wen’s life trajectory in Malay(si)a, by examining the three vastly different, if not contrasting, roles that he assumed in Malayan Chinese education at different st ages of her life, respectively as Chinese language high school teacher in the 1920s 30s, Chinese Schools Inspector in the 1930s 50s, and as principal of Foon Yew High School, the first independent Ch.....

Software and hardware FPGA-based digital watermarking and steganography approaches: toward new methodology for evaluation and benchmarking using multi-criteria decision-making techniques

Zaidan, B. B.

Abstract

Evaluating and benchmarking software and hardware ¯eld programmable gate array (FPGA)-based digital watermarking are considered challenging tasks because of multiple and con°icting evaluation criteria. A few evaluation and benchmarking techniques/frameworks have been implemented to digital watermarking or steganography; however, these approaches still present certain limitations. In particular, ¯xing some attributes on account of other attributes and wellknown benchmarking approaches are limited to robust watermarking techniques. Thus, this study aims toward a new methodology for evaluation and benchmarking using multi-criteria analysis for software and hardware \FPGA"-based digital watermarking or steganography. To achieve this objective, two iterations are conducted. The ¯rst iteration consists of two stages: discussing software and hardware \FPGA"-based digital watermarking or steganography to create a dataset with various samples for benchmarking and discussing the evaluation m.....

Integrating bel canto singing techniques in performing selected Chinese Art Song based on its classical poetry

Liu, Lijia

Abstract

This creative work dissertation focuses on the performer as a co-creator in perfoming selected Chinese art songs based on its classical poetry by integrating Bel Canto singing techniques. By reviewing literature and performances, there were problems with performers' unclear pronunciation and inability to accurately express the charm when the singer use Bel Canto singing techniques. There are two objectives. The first objective leads to two sub-objectives. The first sub-objective is to compare the similarities and differences between Italian and Chinese in Bel Canto singing, and the second sub-objective is to apply the techniques of Yi Zi Xing Qiang and Run Qiang to perform Chinese art songs based on its classical poetry. The second objective is to perform the selected repertoire. This creative work dissertation is based on practice-led research, with the practice process as the research process and the results presented in the form of two recitals. The results suggest that the author a.....
