Sinaloa is not far from other Mexican states where the relationship between industry, university and government does not converge on the same axis that leads to regional development to place the state in the first places in terms of competitiveness in technological development. In this state, the main activity has focused on primary production within the agricultural sector and not on innovation that generates high value-added products. Scientific production and its impact on regional competitiveness were evaluated when it is linked through the management model of the Technological Innovation Park of the Autonomous University of Sinaloa. Some of the results indicate that the PIT-UAS has a high potential to promote growth and economic development through the link between Higher Education Institutions and companies, whether they are established organizations, technology-based or Spin-off, as well as to promote academic and inter-academic production through publications and dissemination in high-impact magazines, congresses, symposia, and other activities that allow the dissemination of knowledge, all this through government incentives that promote and support said activities.

This quantitative research investigates the technical efficiency of LAZNAS (Lembaga Amil Zakat Nasional – National Amil Zakat Institution) with research period from 2012-2016. The research uses two approaches, namely non-parametric approach using two-stage Data Envelopment Analysys (DEA) to measure the efficiency level of amil zakat institutions, while parametric approach uses Tobit regression model to see the factors that influence the efficiency these institutions. This research uses DEA method with production orientation input approach. It is assumed that LAZNAS as the Decision Making Unit (DMU) of social institution has input variable in the form of Human Resources Expense (X1) and Operational Expense (X2). While the output variables consist of Zakat Fund (Y1) and Zakat Distribution (Y2). The results showed that 20 DMUs were in increasing return to scale and 2 DMUs are in the decreasing return to scale. The remaining 8 DMU are in efficient condition. Technical measurements show that BNI is the most efficient LAZNAS with an average efficiency rating of 92.8% throughout 2012- 2016 followed by LAZNAS Rumah Yatim with average efficiency 70.4% and PKPU with average efficiency 64.8%.

Deaf teachers have inadequate knowledge and professional training in American Sign Language (ASL) in Cameroon. Deaf learners are disadvantaged because of lack of signing competence from teachers. Teachers face problems in teaching many subjects since most of the signs referring to certain objects, practices and beliefs are absent in the culture of those who are not of American origin. A Cameroonian sign language should be developed and used in specialised settings. This study was done in four deaf schools: Morningstar, Mbingo, Ephphatha and Buea schools for the deaf. This descriptive survey made use of a questionnaire, interview and observation guides as instruments for data collection.
