Ideological Orientation of and Educational Guidance for Contemporary Chinese Youth Against International Background
At present, the higher education of Chinese youth has to face the reality of internationalization. There is no doubt that Chinese young people’s ideology and thoughts have undergone complicated as well as profound changes in the process of internationalization, assuming brand-new characteristics and showing new trends. If we carefully analyze the complicated impact on contemporary Chinese youth’s ideology by internationalization and study the different features coupled with orientation of their thoughts, it will be of great significance for the research on methods and countermeasures for ideological education of Chinese youth against the international background.

My profoundest gratitude goes to Dr. Nagwa Megahed, my thesis’ advisor. Dr. Megahed had taught me innumerable lessons and insights on research’s and presentation’s mechanisms. Without her dedication, support and the technical and editorial comments she provided me with, this report wouldn’t have been in its current shape. 
 
I would also like to extend my sincere appreciation to Dr. Ted Purinton, the reader of this research who strongly supported me at an early stage of this study and helped me formulating the initial idea of this research. 
 
My thankfulness should also be extended to the GSE/AUC’s fellowship program and Misr El-Kheir’s supplementary program for covering my research expenses, and partially covering my courses’ tuition fees. 
 
In addition, my gratitude goes to the data collection team; Ms. Zeinab Al-Hawary, Ms. Intisar Soliman, Ms. Rahma Ibrahim, Ms. Hanaa Al-Samman and Mr. Ahmed Gaweesh, they all did a great contribution to the research.

Time series analysis based effectiveness evaluation of instructional activities
Because there are many dimensions to pedagogical work, it is best to apply multiple methods to evaluate the effectiveness of teaching methods and other correlative instructional activities. Most current approaches of effectiveness evaluation could not give appropriate graphics or quantitative indicators which can provide intuitive explanation. A time series analysis based effectiveness evaluation method is proposed in this paper. This new approach can provide a visual and statistics way to describe the intrinsic correlation of the data series and help to make effectiveness evaluation effectively.
