Roshanak Akrami, Allameh Tabatabaee University and Islamic Azad University, Tehran South Branch
Teaching American Literature: A Journal of Theory and Practice Spring/Summer 2018 (9:3) Roshanak Akrami, Allameh Tabatabaee University and Islamic Azad University, Tehran South Branch "'O Captain! My Captain!' Trump is President": Teaching American Literature in Tehran Abstract: This paper is an account of my experience teaching American Literature to graduate and undergraduate students of English Language and Literature in Tehran, Iran. American Literature is planned as a two-hour course for these students and is usually designed based on an official syllabus created by Iran's Ministery of Science, Research, and Technology. This syllabus, however, suffers from the absence of women writers, African American writers, and Native American voices. I tried to revise it to meet the current shift in the way American literature has come to be defined, that is as a multicultural multinational entity. The limited scope of the course is the first limitation that I faced. It forced me, as it has forced my colleagues who teach this course, to leave out some important representatives of American Literature. Lack of background knowledge on American history and Christianity is another issue that creates difficulty in understanding some concepts and texts and consequently, which leaves less time to enjoy literary texts. Despite these difficulties, teaching this course has been so far the most exciting part of my academic career. As I am writing this paper I have the opportunity to teach American literature to some brilliant undergraduate and graduate students of English language and literature at one of the most esteemed universities of Iran in Tehran. I taught American literature to two other undergraduate classes last semester (Spring 2017) as well. -

GE.12-14079 A/HRC/20/NGO/105 The situation of higher education in the Islamic Republic of Iran Higher education is a prerequisite to achieve better living standards. Every year, more than 1 Million of Iranian high school graduates compete in an entrance exam for the Iranian national public universities, which if they are successful, will give them a vital criterion for future job opportunities. According to the Iranian Constitution, “The government must provide all citizens with free education up to secondary school, and must expand free higher education to the extent required by the country for attaining self-sufficiency.”Additional, such provisions are also required due to the Islamic Republic’s commitment to the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR), the International Covenant on Economic Social and Cultural Rights (ICESCR), the International Convention on the Elimination of Racial Discrimination (CERD) and the UNESCO Convention against Discrimination in Education. However, students face serious barriers while studying at the universities. -

Comparing Energy in Different Buildings Using Two Insulators

Mat is made up of Agave plans which are now produced in Iran; gunny made up of plant fibers which is producing in Iran both can be used in walls of buildings to reduce energy loss in cold season. In this work the thermal conductivity for mat is to be 0.06949 J/s.m°c and also from temperature gradient curve it was found that the temperature changes uniformly with thickness of the mat and also the thermal conductivity for gunny is to be 0.080 J/s.m °c and also from temperature gradient curve it was found, the temperature changes uniformly with thickness of the gunny. Finally the difference of the energy gain in the brick buildings with & without the mat was estimated to be 1.9656×10³ kcal in the cold season in Tehran for 150 days. Ultimately it was estimated energy gain in the brick buildings with & without the gunny to be 2.393×10 5 kcal in the cold season in Tehran for 150 days. -
Graduate School of the Environment and Energy Handout
ISLAMIC AZAD UNIVERSITY Science and Research Branch Graduate School of the Environment and Energy Handout 2013 Islamic Azad University; Science and Research Branch Graduate School of the Environment and Energy Graduate School of the Environment and Energy of Science and Research Branch in Islamic Azad University, has spared no efforts to expand its research and educational activities at postgraduate and doctorate levels in the past 20 years. These efforts have successfully resulted in training and educating of quality lecturers, researchers and experts who now serve across the country and abroad. Quite a few of the first doctoral graduates of the faculty have achieved associate professor rank in different universities where they lecture and conduct and lead research projects. Noting its activities in publication, education and research areas, the FEE has been identified as a ‘distinguished institution’ amongst other environmental faculties in the country. These achievements are the result of the past and present activities of the faculty which will only be continued and expanded in future. With the support and collaboration of the higher authorities, the university administrators and the alumni the school is determined to progress and flourish as a non-governmental scientific and research center at world level. The faculty began activities in 1990 in 3 major disciplines, namely Environmental Engineering, Environmental Management and Environmental Sciences, at post-graduate and Ph.D. levels. Since the first semester of 2003-2004 the School is offering master degree in Environmental Law and Environmental Economics, these being sub-disciplines of Environmental Management. Starting with the first semester of 2004- 2005, Environment Design Engineering and Water Resources, being sub-disciplines of Environmental Engineering, have admitted students at the Masters level. -
