  • A Legacy in Chinese Education History, Or a Solution for Modern Undergraduates in China?
    Journal of Education and Learning; Vol. 9, No. 6; 2020 ISSN 1927-5250 E-ISSN 1927-5269 Published by Canadian Center of Science and Education Chinese Shuyuan: A Legacy in Chinese Education History, or a Solution for Modern Undergraduates in China? Zhen Zeng1 1 School of Foreign Studies, Guangxi Normal University, Guilin, Guangxi, China Correspondence: Zhen Zeng, 82 Liuhe Road, Qixing District, Guilin, Guangxi, Postal Code: 541004, China. E-mail: [email protected] Received: September 28, 2020 Accepted: November 19, 2020 Online Published: November 26, 2020 doi:10.5539/jel.v9n6p173 URL: https://doi.org/10.5539/jel.v9n6p173 Abstract The paper looked into concepts claimed to be essence of Chinese residential college, an on-going institution presumed to be a solution towards undergraduates’ issues in some pioneer universities in China. It’s analyzed that Chinese residential college today in China is not a Shuyuan that was ever striving as a unique education mode in ancient China, even if it’s named after Shuyuan in Chinese, concerning on its nature, function and goal, while it’s not a conventional residential college in English speaking countries neither. By investigation and comparison of its origin, function and features among Shuyuan and Chinese residential college, the spirit of development of a human with goodness and well-being through pursuit of knowledge and culture inherited and transmitted in Shuyuan is unearthed, which is supposed to be the resource of inspiration when the pioneer universities and educators designed and operate residential college on Chinese campus, though the effects couldn’t be accounted as appealing as what Shuyuan produced in ancient China.

  • Call for Papers Special Issue on New Advances of Privacy Protection and Multimedia Content Security for Big Data for IETE TECHNICAL REVIEW
    Call for Papers Special Issue on New Advances of Privacy Protection and Multimedia Content Security for Big Data for IETE TECHNICAL REVIEW Aims and Scope Multimedia signal processing and Internet technology are omnipresent in our daily lives, however, a lot of relevant security issues have emerged as well, such as covert communication using multimedia files, copy-move forgery in digital images and videos, biometric spoofing. To address these issues, many multimedia information security techniques were proposed utilizing the methods in areas like deep learning, signal and image processing in encrypted domain, and privacy protection. Nevertheless, there are some notable shortcomings in research methodologies. Current studies for the multimedia content security are often based on the strict conditions that are nearly impossible to meet up in real world. Furthermore, the high computational complexity of the current methods makes it hard to handle the big data in the cloud computing environment. All these drawbacks limit the applications of the secure techniques in practice. This special issue will focus on the latest research on the topics of privacy protection and multimedia information security, with a particular emphasis on novel and highly efficient methodologies that have the potential to be used for big data. Possible topics for the manuscripts submitted to this special issue include, but are not limited to: Multimedia Fingerprinting and Traitor Tracing Multimedia Watermarking, Fingerprinting and Identification Multimedia Forensic, Authentication and Encryption Multimedia Privacy Protection for Big Data Steganography and Steganalysis for Big Data Signal Processing in the Encrypted Domain Coverless Information Hiding Biometrics Encryption and Hashing in cloud storages Source Device Identification and Linking Security of Large Multimedia System Covert Communications and Surveillance.
