This study aimed to develop a framework for marketing education which explores the synergistic interface of the business and other industries with the academic community. It investigated the emerging concepts, issues and concerns in the local and global community that greatly impinge on establishing a relevant and industry-driven business education particularly in the area of marketing management for St. Paul University Philippines (SPUP). This study made use of the mixed methods research design using both qualitative and quantitative methods of inquiry such as focus group discussion and modified Delphi technique. The Gap Analysis method was employed to determine the chasm or gap between the existing business programs with the desired business programs as envisioned by industry and other significant stakeholders. The participants of this study consisted of professionals, employers and/or entrepreneurs in the business industry as well as business academicians in the region. This study found out that industry-based exposure is important to develop the industry skills of the graduates. The Marketing graduates of SPUP have generally acquired skills, attitudes, and values desirable and needed in the business industry but they lack industry skills and opportunities for immersion to the environment of the world of work. The business industry practitioners require the Marketing Management graduates, adequate industry-based knowledge in relating with people or clients of varied backgrounds, analysis of business trends and introduction of innovative marketing strategies. The proposed framework emphasizes on the collaboration and integration of the business industry and SPUP in the delivery of Marketing education.

INTRODUCTION: Cancer patients experience a variety of physical and psychological symptoms. Some of these are related to disease progression, while others are early or late adverse effects of cancer treatment. Severity of these symptoms result in impaired quality of life and can often result in treatment delays or warrant additional supportive interventions. Thus, symptom management in cancer patients remains an important focus area for achieving desired outcomes of cancer treatment and preserving quality of life which happens to be a critical function of nursing practice. The current study aimed at describing the incidence of minor symptoms that cancer patients experience along with understanding different strategies that patients’ chose to manage minor adverse events vis-à-vis their efficacy. METHODOLOGY: The prospective study was conducted among 881 cancer patients, who were selected by convenience sampling technique. Statistical analyses were performed using SPSS Version 23 (Statistical Package for the Social Sciences) software. Categorical data were expressed as numbers and percentages. Categorical data were analyzed by fisher exact test and chi square test. P value <0.05 was considered as statistically significant. RESULTS: Off the total population, constipation being the most prevalent (22.48%) symptom reported among the cancer patients while the least reported symptom was appetite (12.73%). It has been seen that constipation (0.032), diarrhea (<0.001), insomnia (<0.001), nausea (<0.001) and appetite (<0.001) are the five common adverse effects experienced by the Cancer patients and shows statistically significant association with treatment methods. There was no statistical significance in relationship between vomiting resolution status and treatment method (<0.052). CONCLUSION: These findings demonstrate that high symptom incidence rates and self-management used render an improvement in current nursing management. Therefore, development of symptoms management groups, encouraging the use of self-care diaries and enhancing the quality of psycho-oncology services provided are to be recommended.

Tourism sector, specifically accessible tourism, is getting more positive progress in the last few decades. Studies in the past mainly focused on inclusive tourism or tourism for all. Somehow, accessible tourism, which includes people with disabilities, is one of the ignored consideration in the field of tourism development. Most studies have ignored the inclusion of people with disabilities in the tourism sector. Making tourism more accessible to the disabled is not only a social responsibility, but there is a significant economic and business need to improve accessibility as it can boost the attractiveness of tourism in Malaysia. Past evidences show that by making adjustments to facilities, providing accurate and important information, and understanding the needs of people with disabilities can result in increased number of visitors. Thus, the main purpose of the study is to investigate this overlooked segment of our society, in order to come up with recommendations that can influence the intention to travel among people with disabilities in Malaysia. Data will be collected from 100 respondents which includes 50 who are disabled and have traveled more than once and stayed in a hotel for at least one night within last year and 50 participants consisting of managers from different hotels operating in Malaysia by employing semi-structured interviews. These 50 respondents with disabilities include people with mobility and physical impairments and people with hearing and communication disabilities. The data gathered will be investigated by employing two statistical packages, namely SPSS and Smart PLS. Multiple regression analysis will be utilized to predict the value of the variables in this research.

One thing that can change water quality is the presence of marine debris caused by anthropogenic activities. In addition to the potential of natural resources that are widespread on the coast of Indonesia, the potential for pollution of the coastal and marine environment also has considerable opportunities. The purpose of this study was to determine the type, weight, composition of anthropogenic waste, and its management on the coast of Tegal City. This research was carried out on March 2-30 May 2020 at the Tegal City Environment Service/DLH, Central Java. Data collection consisting of waste composition data is then analyzed and used in waste management planning. The stages of work carried out are: the calculation of the characteristics of the waste in the form of specific gravity is obtained from the generation measurement using waste weight data. Based on the results of the research that has been carried out, it is concluded that the types of marine debris that are generally found at the research site are organic waste and inorganic waste. However, the most common type of waste is plastic waste. The most severe level of damage was found in the coastal area of Mintaragen Beach. The low level of awareness of environmental hygiene in the community is due to the fact that there are still some people who have not disposed of their garbage in its place, especially for tourists, and there are still some industrial managers who override industrial waste management before being dumped into irrigation streams or canals to the beach. There are still many traders who build tents on the beach. Other factors include environmental and socio-economic physical characteristics, culture, attitudes, and community behavior. In the operational technical aspect, starting from the storage, sorting, collection, transfer, transportation and management of waste. However, what has been realized is mostly only the transfer from the waste disposal site collection point, while the transportation and final processing of waste to be processed at the landfills has not been carried out optimally. One of the factors is the limited tools so that the waste is managed according to the ability of the community.
