Students' assessment and class management: A critical Approach
We know that the teaching method is effective only if it reaches the targets of the program. Teaching the students in each level should be tested. The assessment and the testing of the students are important parts of teaching and learning process. The students learn very well in classes is constant and is part of student’s expectations. The assessment can be done in various ways, through testing at the end of the term, or can be done continuously. However testing and assessment should be taken really seriously if we want to achieve high results in our work as English teachers. Also the class management plays an important part in the process of teaching-leaning and it is closely connected to the assessment and testing of the students. Key words: assessment, class management, teaching, learning. testing

Dissipation Loss Effects in Isolated and Coupled Transmission Lines
This paper describes a computer-aided analysis of dissipation losses in uniform isolated or coupled transmission lines for microwave and millimeter-wave integrated-circuit applications. The analysis employs a quasi-TEM model for isolated transmission lines and for the even- and odd-mode transmission lines associated with coupled-line structures. The conductor and dielectric losses are then related to equivalent charge density distributions, which are evaluated using a method-of-moments solution. The transmission lines treated by this analysis may contain any number of Iossy conductors and inhomogeneous dielectrics, consisting of any number of different homogeneous dielectric regions. A development is provided to explicitly relate the four-port terminal-electrical performance of directional couplers to evaluated even- and odd- mode loss coefficients. Examples of evaluated losses are presented in graphical form for isolated lines of inverted microstrip and trapped inverted microstrip and edge-coupled microstrip with a dielectric overlay. The analysis accuracy has been confirmed using microstrip and coplanar waveguide configurations. A comparison is made of the total loss characteristics for microstrip, coplanar waveguide, inverted microstrip, and trapped inverted microstrip. Calculations are compared with measurements for the coupled-line structure. Accuracy of the solution and suggested refinements are discussed. Five computer programs are documented.
