Interdisciplinary Studies Journal, vol. 3, no 2, 2013.
This journal, the Interdisciplinary Studies Journal (ISJ), is an international forum exploring the frontiers of innovation, creativity and development. This journal does not limit itself to traditions specifically associated with one discipline or school of thought per se but embraces consideration of emerging issues assessing novel terrains and encouraging change. ISJ serves to both industry and academic communities by advancing the premises for implementing research into practice. These quarterly journal issues are published under a distinguished list of editors, including special issues, comprising an expected annual volume of over 700 pages. ISJ is listed in the Ulrich’s Periodicals Director, and indexed and abstracted in the ProQuest.
All the ISJ papers are expected to contribute to raising awareness and rethinking the concept of interdisciplinarity. The readership of this journal consists of academics and (post) graduate students together with executives and managers, policy makers and administrators from both public and private sector. ISJ aims to publish papers on diverse subjects related but not limited to service innovation and design, nursing and coping at home, security and social responsibility, and student entrepreneurship.
In this special unfereed issue of ISJ we are delighted to present to you a variety of research articles and practical papers. Adulesi, Nnadi and Amaewhule examine the impact of school selection process on the academic performance of minority ethnic students. Perez describes microinsurences in three articles. In her first article Perez describes common issues which affect the growth and development of microinsurance as an access of financial services to the poor. In the second article Perez goes on examining the nature of performance assessments in microfinance. In her third article Perez decribes the important role of doners in the microinsurance programs. In his article Kiabel assesses the internal auditing practices on the financial performance of government-owned companies in Nigerian context.Nwokah and Gladson-Nwokah examine the relationship between the dimensions of customer experience and delivery total customer experience management. Yusim, Kulapov and Fialkovsky describe how the number of firms influences the development and welfare of an economy. Ponkratov depicts the current status and the future forecast of taxation of oil and gas production in the Russian Federation. In the LbD in Practice section we are proud to bring to you a great example of implementing the Learning by Development –model in practice. Heiskanen, Kämäräinen and Jokela describe the pedagogical arrangements of simulation-based learning Laurea Hyvinkää unit.
