OgdenThe concept of how formative assessment has been pushed aside for generations is troubling in all areas of education, especially when students are learning solely in non-primary languages. The formative assessment process is a must for any truly significant learning to occur. Exploring the summative assessment, formative assessment, and Classroom Assessment will provide a better insight into lesson planning as well as see how easy it is to become trapped in old teaching styles. The newest teaching styles and theories embrace the formative assessment process and Classroom Assessment Techniques because they have helped teachers see the problems faced when only summative assessment occurs and CATs have also helped bring back the process of formative assessment which allow teachers and students to understand the importance of significant learning as well as achieve it.Publication IPOs in Cambodia - A Research on the First 5 IPOs In Cambodia(CamEd Business School, June 30, 2017) Varabott HoThe term initial public offering (IPO) that we study in the class of Foundations in Financial Management (FFM) is not a new thing.

Nowadays it is more associated to new dotcom or FinTech entrepreneurs in Silicon Valley, who become billionaire on their latest IPO. In the report we will come back to understand what is an IPO? What is it for? How did it work in Cambodia? How did the shares perform? All these questions and more will be developed in this report.Publication Measuring the Performance of an Employee is an Essential Tool within Management Control(CamEd Business School, June 30, 2017) Muhammad M.

An analysis of public-listed companies’ mission statement on the Cambodian stock exchange was undertaken and compared with the recommendation of Campbell and Yeung. This was followed by a simple financial analysis of return on capital employed between a firm that has a better mission statement as compared to another public listed firm whose mission statement was not as effective. Controlling for other variables, there may be a positive correlation between a firm’s mission statement and its financial performance.Publication The Volatility of the CSX Index: GARCH(1,1) Model(CamEd Business School, June 30, 2017) Siphat LimThis study was conducted to predict the conditional variance as well as the volatility of the return of the CSX Index by employing the GARCH(1,1) model with daily data from 19 April 2012 to 12 June 2017. The estimated result of the GARCH(1,1) model which was derived by the maximum likelihood estimation method had revealed that the conditional variance was highly explained by the lagged of square residual as well as the lagged of forecast variance and no ARCH effect was found in this study. The explosive process did not exist, but a mean reverting variance process was detected since the persistence, 𝛼𝛼 + 𝛽𝛽 < 1. The long-run daily volatility was estimated to be 1.349403% per day or 21.42% per year. Keywords: CSX Index; GARCH(1,1); Conditional Variance; Volatility.Publication To what extent did the decolonisation of Malaysia inform or parallel the French withdrawal from Cambodia?(CamEd Business School, June 30, 2017) Perter BainbridgeThis paper will focus specifically on two countries which were European colonists. The UK for Malaysia and France for Cambodia. It will analyze the extent to which the de-colonization processes can be compared and how they did not operate in isolation of each other. The French were well aware of the Malayan Emergency and the British were well aware of the French defeat at Dien Bien Phu and its implications for the region.
