A sponsor may agree to pay a student’s fees for an entire program, individual course, or a set period of time (eg one year or semester). They have the option of paying the fees in full, a percentage of the fees or a flat amount.

Much of what they present as assessment in fact appears to be evaluation. Complicating matters, many defi nitions of assessment actually incorporate the word evaluate. Assessment is a type of evaluation that gathers evidence perhaps from the applica tion of evaluation research. The purpose of assessment or evaluation is either account ability or service/program improvement. Both terms actually portray accountability and improvement differently.","PeriodicalId":270331,"journal":{"name":"The Business & Management Collection","volume":"59 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-03-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132202778","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
{"title":"Trafficking in human organs in Europe","authors":"Silke Meyer","doi":"10.1201/b11262-5","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1201/b11262-5","url":null,"abstract":"An unsuspecting tourist was supposedly drugged in his hotel room by a prostitute and woke up the next morning in a bathtub full of ice, minus a kidney. It is a scenario that has been passed around the world in different versions via email to a countless number of people and it is what many people believe to be the phenomenon of traffi cking in human organs, while police as well as organ transplant foundations have tried to stop it several times already. Several internet sources as well as several national and international tabloids offer horrifying stories about organ snatchers operating throughout the world. These crime rings supposedly take organs from human beings without their consent and sell them on the black market for enormous amounts of money. But what is traffi cking in human organs really about? Is it a phenomenon that really exists? Or is it just a myth, the public wants to believe in, because mass media and tabloids sell it so well? When talking about traffi cking in organs, we fi rst of all have to move away from the idea of crime rings snatching people to take out any kind of transplantable organ available in order to sell it on the black markets because this business is mainly based on living donations. The only similarity between the suspense version and the phenomenon being worked on in this article is the profi torientated attitude of the actors in the business of traffi cking in organs. The forms, this phenomenon actually takes, are far different from the crime legend mentioned above. Still, this phenomenon does include victims as well as organized criminals that get together due to certain socio-economic circumstances as well as fateful decisions to improve their living conditions.","PeriodicalId":270331,"journal":{"name":"The Business & Management Collection","volume":"161 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-11-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114679243","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
