Abstract:
The objective of the research is to examine the influence of Business Intelligence (BI) on Strategic Intelligence (SI). The research population consists of all employees at Commercial banks in Egypt.

The appropriate statistical methods such as Alpha Correlation Coefficient (ACC), Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA), Multiple Regression Analysis (MRA), were used to analyze the data and test the hypotheses.The research has reached a number of results, the most important of which are (1) organizations do not rely on BI applications and technologies as a repository of data and immediate analytical processing, (2) the organizations operate in a competitive framework, represented by other organizations operating in the Egyptian environment, which makes the organization’s environment suitable for using BI and competitive intelligence applications, (3) the low level of the organizations ’infrastructure to deal with the field of software that supports BI . Perhaps this is due to the organizations’ tendency to deal with technologies that work to accomplish the traditional activities of the organization, (4) the interest in BI was limited to certain aspects, the most important of which is the use of BI in reviewing and completing operations within the organization, while the lesser concerns were related to various aspects, the most important of which is cooperation with individuals inside and outside the organization, and the search for new knowledge, and allowing individuals to learn in multiple locations, (5) attention has been focused on the practice of BI in specific aspects, the most important of which is the focus on ensuring that workers in the organization understand the importance of BI for the success of the organization and considering this concept as part of the organization’s culture.

5) Rethinking Alphabet Instruction in Preschool Classrooms
Author Details: Jerry Aldridge, Ed.D., Jennifer Kilgo, Ed.D.-University of Alabama at Birmingham
Abstract:
During the first half of the 20th century, teaching the alphabet and letter sounds was not considered a priority for children in nursery schools, kindergarten, and even some first grade classes (Johnson, 1996; Pratt, 1948; Pratt & Stanton, 1926; Wolfe, 2000). Then, on October 4, 1957, the Russian government launched Sputnik 1, the first artificial earth satellite that orbited the earth until December 25, 1957. The United States government believed that the country was falling behind in science and technology and a push for more rigorous standards in all education subjects began. This included a downward push of academic standards that eventually made their way to kindergarten and preschool. Before that time, the nursery school curriculum was more concerned with social emotional development and learning through play. By the late 20th century, most parents and preschool programs expected children to learn at least some letters by the time they entered kindergarten (Teale, 1995). In 2021, most states have standards or benchmarks for children learning the alphabet and “The Head Start Outcomes Framework—‘Identifies at least 10 letters of the alphabet, especially those in their name’” (McKay & Teale, 2015, p. 19) before children enter kindergarten.
The purpose of this article is to describe the current trend for teaching the alphabet, report evidence based approaches for teaching the alphabet and letter sounds, explain other important research findings related to teaching the alphabet, discuss teaching the alphabet and letter sounds using children’s names, describe teaching the alphabet and letter sounds with environmental print, and to show other ways to continually support children’s alphabet/letter learning throughout the year.
