Effect of Leadership on strategy execution in private secondary schools in Murang’a County, Kenya

Most private schools execute diverse strategies in an adhoc manner without a centralized strategic plan document. This leads to diverse challenges that results to low success levels in strategy execution. The challengesnormally emanate from the complexity of strategy execution owing to the leadership and the stakeholders’ managementinvolved in the execution.Therefore the study sought to examine the effect of leadership on strategy execution in private secondary schools in Murang’a County, Kenya. The study was informed by dynamic capabilities theory. The study targeted eighteen private schools in Murang’a County. Using questionnaires, and applying random sampling, primary data was collected from a sample of 69 teachers out of a populationof 216 teachers. The quantitative data was analyzed using SPSS that generated both descriptive and inferential statistics. Bivariate linear regression analysis indicated that resource availability had a significant effect on strategy execution in private secondary schools in Murang’a County, Kenya, with Beta coefficients(β 0.591, p<0.05). Therefore, based on the findings, the study recommended that in private secondary schools the leader’s problem solving skills should be a critical aspect when a private secondary school is recruiting strategy execution team. The proprietors and management should also come up with programs that boost problem solving among the senior staff in the private schools.In addition, leadership communication skills should be thoroughly enhanced in the private secondary schools with a very clear line of communication and probably a communication policy established to enhance strategy execution.
Tectonic evolution of the northern New England Fold Belt: Carboniferous to Early Permian transition from active accretion to extension

The northern New England Fold Belt in central and southern Queensland comprises a collage of terranes the complexity and variety of which dominantly reflect tectonic events in the l 00 million year interval from mid­ Carboniferous through the Middle Triassic. We present a synthesis of our current, but evolving, understanding of the Carboniferous to Late Permian tectonic evolution of this region which we argue was controlled by a transition from active continental-arc/ accretionary processes to widespread crustal extension. Contrary to earlier interpretations, we find little evidence for the existence of an Early Carboniferous magmatic 'arc' (Connors-Auburn Volcanic Arc) that forms a companion to the more easterly interpreted forearc and accretionary complex elements. These elements, together, have been interpreted widely in terms of segments of a complete subduction complex. Dating of the magmatic elements of assumed Early Carboniferous age shows them to be overwhelmingly Late Carboniferous to Early Permian in age. The Connors-Auburn Volcanic Arc and the Early Permian Camboon Volcanic Arc arc thus part of a single, broad magmatic cycle that we propose should be called the Connors-Cam boon Province. Significant intraformational unconformities within the volcanics of this province are interpreted as evidence for ongoing extension. The present data allow two alternative end-member interpretations, or perhaps more realistically mixtures of these end-members. These are: (i) the existence of Late Carboniferous subduction and associated magmatism that is transitional in nature to Early Permian extension; and (ii) a more controversial interpretation of a passive margin within which all magmatism of Late Carboniferous to Early Permian age records a continental-scale extension and thermal event. Evidence for this thermal event is recorded much further east of the traditionally recognised magmatic province in the Connors-Cam boon Province as extension and crustal melting in the earlier forearc assemblages. Irrespective of these interpretations, the calc­ alkaline-dominated phase of volcanism is transitional into the late Early Permian and formation of the Bowen Basin, a basin that originally extended eastward of the present structural margin to a shallow-marine coastline. The extensional phase of basin formation is characterised by elastic sedimentation into developing grabens and half­ grabens and associated mafic-dominated volcanism. Elements of basin formation are recognised throughout the northern New England Fold Belt and the distribution of· Bowen Basin' rocks differs significantly from traditional models.
Estimation of rainfall erosivity by mapping at the watershed of macta (algeria)

Abstract The aim of the present study is to estimate rainfall erosivity in the Macta watershed of western Algeria. Mapping using GIS (geographical information system) allowed better visualization of the erosivity. Five indices of erosivity were tested on a rainfall series of 42 stations over a period of 41 years. The indices used were the Arnoldus index, the Arnoldus modified Fournier index (MFI), the Rango-Arnoldus index, the Leprun index and the Val et al. index. Rainfall of between 300 and 400 mm occurs in 24 stations (57% of the watershed) where the respective values of the Arnoldus, MFI and Rango-Arnoldus erosivity range from 86.54 to 123.93 MJ Mw/ha.year, 47.47 to 75.33 and 16.11 to 36.13, respectively. Monthly rainfall variability has an important role in the concentration of erosivity. Erosion values (MFI) at the watershed range from 19.22 to 126.78, which indicates a low erosivity potential. Rainfall of less than 300 mm recorded in 15 rain gauges (36%) has respective erosivity values ranging from 39.78 MJ Mw / ha.year, 19.22 and 3.34 to 109.73, 50.27 and 17.80. The erosivity index depends not just on the annual rainfall but also on the intra-annual rainfall pattern. The ratio of the MFI index to the Rango-Arnoldus R index will be closer to unity when rainfall is higher. The lower the rainfall, the more the ratio increases in favour of MFI index. The same indices are very close when the annual rainfall reaches and exceeds 500 mm. Our study has shown the importance of inter-annual variability and its influence on rainfall erosivity. The same index of erosivity can have different values for the same amount of annual rainfall, which means that it is the inter-annual variability of rainfall that leads to a high erosivity index. The method of calculating erosivity described by Paez proved effective, as it overcomes the constraint related to the unavailability of rainfall intensity data, especially in semiarid areas. ____________________________ 1Laboratory for the Analysis of Biological Systems and Geomatics, University Mustapha Stambouli of Mascara, Mascara, Algeria.

Investigating the Effect of 7e Learning Cycle Model of Inquiry- Based Instruction on Students’ Achievement in Science

Understanding of scientific concepts is becoming increasingly difficult for young learners, especially those in basic schools. The difficulty is about the teaching approach adopted by the science teachers. The traditional teaching approach that is, lecturing, is often used by teachers because of its ease of use and lack of knowledge of alternative teaching approaches. This study was conducted to compare the 7E learning cycle model with the traditional lecture method. An experimental and control group approach was used, each group consisting of 20 students. The study found that students instructed using the 7E learning cycle model showed better performance and understanding of concepts than the control group, as the statistics show a significant difference in the performance of the two groups. The researchers suggest the adoption of the inquiry-based approach in teaching integrated science at the basic levels, especially the 7E learning cycle model.
2 Analogy and metareasoning: Cognitive strategies for robot learning

All intelligent forms share a conundrum: they not only must deal with novel situations but also must start with what they already know; how, then, can any intelligent form deal with any novelty? Of course, no intelligent form addresses all novel situations very well; if and when it does not, it may be unable to accomplish its goals or suffer harm in the process, perhaps even perish. Thus, if we are to build long-living robots, we must provide them with the capability of dealingwith at least some kinds of novelty. Further, if wewant robots to live and work among humans, then we may start with humanlike, human-level, cognitive strategies to addressing novel situations. Research on cognitive science suggests four broad categories of mechanisms for addressing novel situations. The first is situated cognition and learning. The intelligent agent, human or robot, starts with knowledge of the world in the form of a policy of actions to be taken in different states in the world, executes the policy, often fails, but learns from the failure by incrementally modifying the policy. The mechanism of situated (or reinforcement) learning not only is general purpose and can be quite effective but also can be computationally costly. The second cognitive mechanism is through social learning. The agent starts with knowledge of primitive objects, relations, events, and actions. The intelligent agent is situated in a sociocultural context where the agent may learn by observing a teacher, or the teacher may actively help the agent learn through demonstrations or corrections, or the agent may actively learn by asking questions of the teacher. This interactivemechanism can be costly, too, when a large number of observations and demonstrations are needed, but if a faithful teacher who patiently provides trustworthy answers is available, then this method can be quite effective.
The Analysis of Brand Awareness Measurement in Amil Zakat Institution of Nu Care Lazisnu Bandung

Amil zakat institutions must continue to compete positively by maintaining a positive image or making people aware that this institution can manage ZIS funds properly. To be known and remembered by the public, an institution must create and increase brand awareness. The method used in this research is a descriptive method to describe the brand awareness of NU CARE-LAZISNU Bandung with a sample of 100 respondents from Bandung. In this study, researchers distributed questionnaires to respondents. Based on the analysis of brand awareness measurement in NU CARE-LAZISNU, Bandung has not been able to occupy the top of mind and brand recall because the value obtained is minimal. NU CARE-LAZISNU Bandung is at the brand recognition and unaware stage. NU CARE-LAZISNU Bandung's marketing strategy can carry out by using social media because the community is now inseparable from social media.
Identifying factors contributing to annoyance from neighbourhood noise

Studies have shown that neighbourhood noise is the second most annoying noise source in Germany, but little is known about the characteristics that affect the annoyance ratings of neighbourhood noise. In a population-representative survey commissioned by the German Environment Agency, we examined noise annoyance due to various noise sources in Germany. For neighbourhood noise, relevant characteristics and factors that potentially contribute to the annoyance ratings were examined. In total, four representative areas in Germany were selected. Each area was stratified according to its density of agglomeration (inner city, urban fringe, rural area). A mixed-method design was used. First, neighbourhood noise was qualitatively assessed by means of focus groups. In a second step, a questionnaire study was conducted. In total, 1,973 questionnaires (online and paper-pencil) were filled in. In this paper, we investigate the influence of different non-acoustical factors contributing to neighbourhood noise annoyance judgments, e.g. density of agglomeration, house type, relationship to neighbours, satisfaction with the neighbourhood, one’s own perception as a causer of noise, and annoyance due to other noise sources. Results will be discussed.
Correlation and Path Coefficient Analysis of Yield and Component Traits of KAFACI doubled haploid Rice (Oryza sativa L) Genotypes in Malawi

The present study exhibits a yield and yield component traits correlations and path coefficient analysis in some KAFACI doubled haploid and other rice {Oryza sativa L} genotypes. The experiment was laid out in a Randomized Complete Block Design {RCBD} with 3 replications at Lifuwu Agricultural Research Station trial fields during the 2018/2019 and 2019/2020 rainy seasons. Eight selected traits namely number of productive tillers per hill, spikelets per panicle, panicle length, days to 50% flowering, days to maturity, 1000 grain weight, and grain yield were considered in this study. ANOVA table illustrated significant differences (p<0.001) for all studied traits and this means that the germplasms comprised a pool of genotypes with huge variations. The new promising lines, which exceed the yield, record of 7000kg/ha of paddy rice for Malawi varieties were identified in the present evaluation of KAFACI lines. Generally, genotypic correlations were higher than phenotypic correlations though in some instances were similar implying that much expression of the lines were influenced by genetic factors. Grain yield showed positive significant correlation with number of productive tillers per hill and only positive in panicle length and spikelets per panicle. This means selection for these traits can improve grain yield. Path Coefficient showed that characters like days to reach maturity, panicle length and spikelets per panicle were directly influencing grain yield thus are important contributors in coming up with selection criteria for the set objectives in a rice breeding program.
A study on drug induced cutaneous adverse drug reactions at a tertiary care hospital, Mysore, India

Background: Drugs, however safe and efficacious, are associated with risk of adverse reactions. Adverse Drug Reactions (ADRs) are one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality. ADRs was rated as the fifth leading cause of death among all diseases. Consequences of ADRs range from diminished quality of life, increased physician visits, hospitalizations, and even death. The objectives of the study were to obtain information about drug induced cutaneous adverse reactions and to establish the causal relationship.Methods: Observational cross sectional study, a total of 76 patients were recruited for the study,conducted in dermatology outpatient department of K R Hospital Mysore Medical College And Research Institute Mysore for 3 months. The drug reactions were recorded in ADR form of Central Drugs Standard Control Organisation (CDSCO). Causality was assessed using Naranjo algorithm and World Health Organization- Uppsala monitoring centre (WHO-UMC) criteria.Results: 76 patients with CADRs were included in the study during the 3 months study period. Most common age group with CADRs was 20-30 years; with 55.73% of females 20.26% male and the most common suspected drug group causing CADRs was antimicrobial 35.46%. And most common lesion is maculopapular rashes. According to Naranjos scale 67.30% of CADRs were probably caused by drugs.Conclusions: variety of drugs causes CADRs. Awareness among clinicians is required for active reporting of CADRs. Patients need to be educated for the cautious use of drugs causing ADRs to prevent the same.
EXPLORING ROLE OF MICROCREDIT IN ENHANCING WOMEN EMPOWERMENT: A QUALITATIVE STUDY

In the current era, researchers throughout the developing countries are highlighting the impact of microcredit programs on women empowerment. Therefore, this research explores what is meant by empowerment and how it is related to women. The study highlights the role of microfinance institutions (MFIs) in enhancing women empowerment and also emphasizes its importance in poverty alleviation. The research uses interview based qualitative approach for in-depth analysis of three MFIs operating in Lahore. The outcomes of the study reveal that MFIs leads to significant improvement in women’s social status and their family well-being. The findings further reveal that a rise in awareness regarding women’s empowerment in a society leads to increase social status of the whole economy. Thus, the study affirms a significantly positive impact of microcredit program on women’s empowerment.
The Relationship Between Workplace Spirituality And Organizational Performance

This study aimed to examine and analyzed the relationship between workplace spirituality and organizational performance, where the workplace spirituality is divided into three main aspects, the sense of community, meaningful work and inner life . This study used a survey method with data collection techniques using a questionnaire. The research data were analyzed using multiple linear regression. This study provides results that (1) workplace spirituality measured by aspects of sense of community has a positive and significant effect on organizational performance; (2) workplace spirituality has a positive effect that measured by meaningful work aspects on organizational performance; (3) workplace spirituality that measured by inner life did not affect organizational performance. The implication of this research we expected eventually to the services organization, especially hospitals to be expensive to conduct training related to spirituality and provide a working environment that can support the spirituality of the employees, so as to create an environment that is comfortable and friendly for every employee in the organization.
Unraveling the Eclipse Mechanism of a Binary Millisecond Pulsar Using Broadband Radio Spectra

The frequency dependent eclipses of the radio emission from millisecond pulsars in compact binary systems provide an opportunity to understand the eclipse mechanism and to determine the nature of the eclipsing medium. We combine multifrequency observations from the upgraded Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope and model the broadband radio spectrum in the optically thick to thin transition regime to constrain the eclipse mechanism. The best-fit model to the eclipse phase spectra favors synchrotron absorption by relativistic electrons. We are able to strongly constrain the frequency of onset of the eclipse to 345 ± 5 MHz, which is an order of magnitude more precise than previous estimates. The dependence on the magnetic field strength of synchrotron absorption allowed us to estimate the magnetic field strength of the eclipse medium to be ∼13 G, which is very similar to the values obtained by considering a pressure balance between the incident pulsar wind and the stellar wind of the companion. Applying this method to other millisecond binary pulsars will enable us to determine if the eclipse mechanisms are all the same and also estimate the wind and magnetic field properties of the companion stars. The method could also be applied to other systems where pulsars interact with companion winds in binary systems and in all cases it will lead to a better understanding of the evolutionary processes.
Role of soil nitrogen amendments in management of ozone stress in plants: a study of the mechanistic approach

In view of the increasing concentration of tropospheric ozone (O3), it becomes important to develop mitigative measures which help in sustaining plant yield. On the basis of a few experiments, soil nitrogen amendments have given some promising results and can be used in partial amelioration of O3 stress in plants. The aim of the present experiment was to evaluate the interactive effects of ambient O3 and nitrogen treatments on selected physiological, biochemical and morphological characteristics of palak (Beta vulgaris L. var Allgreen) plants. The experimental design consisted of three nitrogen treatments i.e, control (no supplement nitrogen), recommended dose (N1) and 1.5 x recommended dose (N2). The results of the experiment showed that the mechanisms through which nitrogen amendments assisted the plants to cope with O3 stress were dominated by the physiological features like stomatal conductance at low nitrogen dose treatment, while at higher nitrogen dose treatment, biochemical characteristics are more prominent. Alteration in the enzymatic and nonenzymatic antioxidants in nitrogen treated plants as compared to control, clearly suggest a reduction in O3 stress upon nitrogen amendments. Biomass allocation pattern is also modified by nitrogen treatments to sustain higher yield. The positive effect of biomass allocation was more prominent in N2 plants where yield increments were higher. The yield increments, as compared to control were higher in N2 as compared to N1, indicating that higher nitrogen dose was more effective in partial amelioration of O3 stress. However, more experiments are required to be planned to determine the exact dose of nitrogen amendments needed for different plants.
Work Engagement Across Different Generations in Finland: A Qualitative Study of Boomers, Yers and Xers Suomäki Anu, Kianto Aino, Vanhala Mika

In this world of constantly growing global competition, work engagement is an essential driver of organizational success. However, it seems that the source of such engagement varies amongst employees of different generations. Thus, this research aimed to ascertain whether or not generational differences matter when it comes to work engagement. This qualitative study provides insight into the multigenerational workforce of today’s knowledge-intensive work environment by clarifying the antecedents of work engagement for members of different generational cohorts. This paper also addresses whether or not generation can serve as a means for segmenting the workforce. The results demonstrate that despite slightly different emphases, people of all ages follow similar constructions of work engagement. The topic of this study is both current and beneficial as it provides new knowledge on both work engagement and generational research while offering suggestions to organizations seeking to engage their workforces.
Legal text processing within the MIREL project

We present the roadmap and advances in the area of Information Extraction from legal texts within the EU-funded MIREL project (MIning and REasoning with Legal texts). We describe the resources and tools we have developed for Natural Language Processing in the legal domain, i.e., annotated corpora and automated classiﬁers for Named Entity Recognition and Linking and Argument Mining. Our ﬁnal objective is to identify arguments, their content and the relations between them in legal text, with a proof-of-concept in judgments of the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR), to ﬁnally support reasoning tasks over mined argumentative structures. This representation will arguably be useful for applications like a reading aid, enhanced information retrieval, structured summarization, intelligent search engines or information extraction. All tools and resources are available at https://github.com/PLN-FaMAF/legal-ontology-population and https://github.com/PLN-FaMAF/ArgumentMiningECHR .
