Many are ill prepared for the student-centred learning strategies developed for them by the staff, strategies that emphasise inquiry, debate and analysis. Many prefer to memorise and reproduce material from lecture notes and similar basic material. Failure rates have risen, and many of those international students who eventually pass and go on to gain permanent residence find it hard to get work in accounting environments. Local students are now a minority in the subject. They are well adapted to student-centred learning and some resent the change in learning culture that the newcomers expect the staff to adopt.","PeriodicalId":85256,"journal":{"name":"People and place","volume":"16 1","pages":"12-20"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70433009","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}

This decline may be linked to increasing enrolments of international students with poor English language skills. Some university lecturers indicate that the quality of students entering their courses has declined, as has the quality of those graduating. In an environment increasingly dominated by the need to publish or perish, assessment tasks such as essays, case studies, and research reports, designed to improve the English language and communications skills of graduates, may have been compromised. This may contribute to the fact that many employers of graduates are concerned about the low levels of English language and communication skills displayed by accounting graduates, particularly international students.","PeriodicalId":85256,"journal":{"name":"People and place","volume":"15 1","pages":"22-29"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70433067","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}

It examines their potential equity outcomes and argues that, combined with recent changes to the eligibility requirements for the Commonwealth Seniors Health Card (CSHC), the new Seniors Concession Allowance serves to reduce equity in Australia's welfare system. The second concession, the Utilities Allowance that targets elderly Australians in need, is necessary due to deficiencies in the current method of indexing the aged pension.","PeriodicalId":85256,"journal":{"name":"People and place","volume":"47 1","pages":"24"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2005-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70432989","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}

Betts","doi":"10.4225/03/590AA592BE7BE","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.4225/03/590AA592BE7BE","url":null,"abstract":"Opposition to immigration in Australia has continued to weaken. Causes include: a strong economy, restricted access to welfare for new immigrants, less rhetoric about multiculturalism, and general ignorance about the demographic consequences. However, a strong emphasis on border control probably helps. Reformers’ protests about Australia’s tough asylum-seekers policy have had little effect on attitudes to boatpeople, but may have increased public confidence in legal immigration. But the pattern of decreased concern about immigration is not uniform; people in the outer suburbs of Sydney and in regional New South Wales do not share it, nor do low skilled workers. A curious finding is that people who vote green or belong to environmental groups are more in favour of immigration than others. This probably reflects in accentuated from the strong difference between members of the educated professional classes, with their cosmopolitan outlook, and people without university degrees and their more patriotic outlook.

This role is increasing as a result of the recruiting initiatives flowing from the Commonwealth Government's Strengthening Medicare program. Yet there are no requirements in Australia that these OTDs be first subject to a formal assessment of their medical knowledge, clinical skills and practice performance in a supervised hospital setting. A review of the situation in Canada, the United States and Britain shows that OTDs wishing to practise in these countries first have to undergo such an assessment. The reasons why Australia is different are explored. It is concluded that State and Commonwealth Government concerns about the supply of doctors have overridden worries within the medical profession about the readiness of OTDs to practice in Australia without formal assessment and further training.
