Study of The Relationship Between Students' Belief and Attitude Toward Physics and GPA
Authors: Diyana Tsania Nur , Pebriana Irvany Nurita
Published: April 2023

The Grade Point Average (GPA) score is the average value of each student who has studied for several semesters. This value is considered a representation of students' success in learning. Meanwhile, it is known that success in studying physics is not only influenced by cognitive abilities but also related to other things including students' beliefs and attitudes toward physics. This study aims to examine the relationship between students' beliefs and attitudes towards physics on GPA scores. This study used a survey research design with a total of 69 students from the third-year physics education department as subjects. Spearman's Rank Correlation analysis was used to determine the relationship between students' beliefs and attitudes toward physics with GPA scores. The results of the study show that there is a relationship between the two but with a very weak relationship. The correlation coefficient value obtained is 0.132 while the significance value is 0.281. These results indicate that the relationship that occurs between the two variables is not significant.

Сюни-ванк, или церковь св. Григория (VII в.): Попытка нового прочтения скульптурных изображений
Authors:   Ереванский государственный университет Ереван, Армения, Акопян Заруи
Published: April 2023

В монументальной скульптуре средневековой Армении, а также Грузии есть изображения, которые не поддаются интерпретации в силу своей нестандартной иконографии. Это изображения объемных голов и человеческих ликов, являющихся частью внешней, а иногда и внутренней декорации церковного здания, образы которых не совпадают с широко известными изображениями персонажей из Священной истории. Tакие объемные головы в убранстве Сюни-ванка и будут в центре внимания в рамках данной статьи. В отличие от целого ряда памятников с изображениями скульптурных голов, именно на примере Сюни-ванка, а также храма в Кумурдо данные образы выделяются более отчетливо, так как здесь параллельно имеются разные скульптурные группы, из сопоставления которых выявляются характерные особенности интересующих нас изображений. В статье также приведены предварительные выводы о месте и значении скульптурных голов в декоративном убранстве средневековых церквей. In the monumental sculpture of medieval Armenia, as well as Georgia, there are images that cannot be interpreted due to their original iconography. These are images of human faces or voluminous heads, which are part of the external, or sometimes internal, decoration of church building, and they do not coincide with the well-known Biblical images. These kind of voluminous headsare in the decoration of Syuni-vank church that will be the focus of this paper. Unlike a number of monuments with sculptural heads, it is on the example of Syuni-vank, as well as the cathedral in Kumurdo, that these images stand out more clearly. As there are other sculptures as well in the decoration of the mentioned churches, so the comparison of them reveals the very characteristic features of the images under discussion. The paper also provides preliminary ideas about the role and significance of the sculpture heads in the decoration of medieval churches.

A Critical Discourse Analysis of Doctor Dickson Tsey’s Speech on Quality Teacher Education in the 21st Century
Authors: Vinyo Innocent Yao
Published: April 2023

Aim: Socio-education drives the growth and development of contemporary societies. Quality teacher education greatly influenced learning outcomes. The study aimed at exploring how language was employed to call for strategic partnership in the production of quality teachers in a speech by Doctor Dickson Tsey.

Methods: The study employed qualitative method specifically the critical discourse analysis to analyze Doctor Dickson Tsey’s speech.

Results: The study found out that frequent use of simple present tense articulated the real issues of quality teacher education during the speech delivery. It was obvious that the speaker identified himself as a stakeholder of quality teacher education due to his frequent use of we/us; pronouns in the speech. Doctor Dickson Tsey’s chose and used possessive adjectives such as my, our, your, his and her as modifiers in his speech to describe the ownership of AMECO. Figures of speech such as hyperbole, idiom, repetition and personification were used by Doctor Dickson Tsey to create mental images and sensory impressions for emotional effect and intensity. It was also found out that the speech called for stakeholders’ support for quality teachers’ education.

Conclusion: The roles of strategic partners in providing quality teacher education cannot be underestimated. Stakeholders such as government, the church, traditional leaders, principals of colleges of education, alumni, staff and students were addressed by the speech suggesting that partnership is very crucial for quality teacher education in the 21st Century.

Recommendations: The study recommend that Doctor Tsey’s speech should be considered by policy planners of education to enable them factor quality teacher education programmes into the country’s educational policies. Colleges of educations should incorporate quality teacher education activities into their carriculum to enhace their training. Stakeholders of teacher education should initiate programs to create awareness in the public on the need to support quality teacher education. There should also be unity among the stakehoders and the colleges since a strategic partnership cannot be built in the absence of strong collaboration and togetherness. This study shall serve as a basis for further research in areas that influence learning outcomes such as community-teacher relationship.

Published: April 2023

The end-of-term ratings are one of the most crucial components of improving educational institutions' ability to assess teachers' performance. The paper-based evaluation system for teachers at Cebu Technological University's Tuburan Campus is time-consuming and laborious. During the flexible learning, the school uses Google Forms to create surveys to rate the teachers which also has shortcomings since Google Forms has limited functions. To solve these issues, the proponents created a web-based evaluation system that makes it simple for students to rate their professors and generates evaluation reports at ease. Additionally, the system gives the system administrator the ability to control colleges, users, and evaluations. It will save time and manpower because the results are created automatically. The system was developed using HTML, CSS, Bootstrap, PHP, and MySQL while adhering to the Agile Model of the Software Development Life Cycle. The proponents allowed the SAST Coordinator and students to test the system and evaluate each module during the usability testing. Throughout unit testing, integration testing, and system/alpha testing, the system was successful and performed as planned. Enhancements to the system's features is highly recommended in order to augment the system’s functionality including further study on the system's technology acceptance.

Authors: Herlindah  , Darmawan Yadi
Published: April 2023

The development legal theory and progressive legal theory are legal theories that are widely known in Indonesia. Both of them have inspired many legal experts and legal actors in Indonesia. The slow pace of legal reform in Indonesia, especially in eradicating corruption, is a big challenge that this nation must face. Therefore, the contribution of various parties is needed to answer the challenge. This article attempts to review the development legal theory and progressive legal theory in the context of legal reform in Indonesia. The study finds that both theories are very relevant to the current development of law in Indonesia. From the perspective of development legal theory, legal reform must be carried out by formulating laws that can encourage community transformation. On the other hand, the progressive legal theory emphasizes reforms in legal institutions and individual law enforcers. The law must be carried out by actors who have integrity and dare to take methods of a legal settlement that are out of the ordinary while remaining oriented and committed to the values ​​of justice and humanity.

The Variant Readings in Islamic Law
Authors: Melchert Christopher
Published: April 2023

The accepted variant readings (qirāʾāt) of the Qurʾān have often been characterized as those that may be recited in the course of the ritual prayer. However, it appears on examination that premodern juridical handbooks laying out the rules governing the ritual prayer rarely discuss textual variants. When they do, it is almost always to rule out variants reportedly recited by Companions before the caliph ʿUthmān promulgated a single orthodox text. Also, contrary to what some scholars continue to allege, it is doubtful whether the acceptance of seven, ten, or any other number of accepted variant readings has been affected by judicial rulings or fatwas from jurisprudents backed by state power. What constrained specialists to restrict themselves to widely accepted variants was evidently fear not of the state but of disapproval from fellow specialists.
Bloody Wrath and Healing Touches: Joseph and His Brothers in Early Imāmī Shīʿī Tafsīr
Authors: Shiran Adi
Published: April 2023

The meetings between Joseph and his brothers in Egypt are often portrayed in Qurʾān commentaries as dramatic occurrences. A few early Imāmī-Shīʿī commentaries mention a peculiar account that describes the heated clash between the brothers and Joseph following Joseph’s accusation that one of them stole from him. A comparative examination shows that a second version of this tradition appears in contemporary Sunnī exegesis, and that earlier Jewish Midrashim influenced both Muslim versions. This paper will suggest that the Muslim versions consciously altered the Jewish exegetical narrative to agree with the qurʾānic one and that the Islamicized version of the tradition was adopted “back” into later Jewish exegesis. The differences between the Imāmī and Sunnī versions suggest that each community had independent access to rabbinic lore. The paper also studies elements in the Imāmī version that are absent from both the Sunnī and Jewish versions, including unusual bleeding from various organs and a golden pomegranate. Finally, it offers some preliminary observations concerning the considerations that might have led to the unique developments exhibited in the Imāmī version.
How Familiar Are Ninth-Graders with Climate Change and How Well Do Teachers Understand the Need for Comprehensive Discussion of the Issue of Climate Change
Authors: Plohl Igor
Published: April 2023

Climate change is one of the key problems which humanity has already begun to face and which it will most certainly continue to face in the future. Due to the consequences of the changing climate and of climate change mitigation, changes will also be needed in many areas of human activity (economy, energy industry, politics etc.). Another important area is education. With the intention of pointing out the importance of teaching about climate change in compulsory education, a research study was conducted on the familiarization with the issue of climate change among ninth-graders, and a research study on the understanding of the need for a comprehensive discussion of the issue of climate change among primary school geography teachers in Slovenia. The leading hypothesis that pupils do not gain enough knowledge in geography lessons in primary school and that they are not informed enough about the issue of climate change was confirmed using a descriptive and causal non-experimental research method; this situation should be improved by supplementing the geography curriculum for primary school with a comprehensive discussion of the issue of climate change.

Published: April 2023

A case study during geography lessons is a working method that enables pupils to apply their knowledge to a specific issue. Thus they do not focus on merely one geographic category (e.g. climate or population), but connect various processes and contemplate their interaction. Simultaneously, teachers can develop the critical thinking of pupils based on an actual example. For this purpose, teachers can prepare numerous assignments at various taxonomic levels. The example described above was used in 8th grade during a discussion on Central America.
Sfidat e trajtimit të fëmijëve në stomatologjinë pediatrike
Authors: Latifi-Xhemajli Blerta
Published: April 2023

Stomatologjia në vetvete është një degë e vështirë e mjekësisë, pasi përkushtimi dhe saktësia që kërkohet nga mjeku stomatolog është shumë më i lartë se në shumë drejtime tjera të mjekësisë [1]. Ajo që punën e stomato- logut e bënë të vështirë është fusha relativisht e vogël e punës, gjë që e bënë të vështirë trajtimin e një pacienti fëmijë. Puna me pacientë të rritur është më e lehtë, para së gjithash, e kupton rëndësinë e bashkëpunimit me mjekun dhe rëndësinë e intervenimit, ndërsa fëmijët nuk janë në gjendje të kuptojnë rëndësinë e trajtimit. Edhe pse stomatologjia e fëmijëve (pedodoncia) është formë e specializimit stomatologjik sikurse edhe fushat e tjera stomatolgojike, megjithatë, ka veçoritë e saja, siç janë saktësia, kujdesi, stabiliteti, qëndrueshmëria dhe fokusi i jashtëzakonshëm i pedodontit gjatë trajtimit të fëmijëve [2]. Puna me fëmijë kërkon shumë durim, përpjekje, an- gazhim fizik e psikik, si dhe kohë, e cila në shikim të parë duket e padobishme por, që në të vërtetë, është shumë e nevojshme.

Pedodontët shpeshherë trajtojnë fëmijët të cilët nuk bashkëpunojnë me mjekun, si pasojë e mospërgatitjes së tyre nga prindërit, shpreshherë madje edhe të frikësuar nga prindërit duke e marrë stomatologun si ndëshkim ndaj sjelljeve të tyre. Për më tepër, këta prindër shpesh kanë pritshmëri gjithnjë e më të ulëta për fëmijët e tyre dhe pritshmëri më të larta nga stomatologu. Qas-
jet e këtilla janë të gabuara, nuk përfiton as fëmija e as stomatologu [3]. Një faktor tjetër i rëndësishëm në tra- jtimin e fëmijës është edhe prindërimi. Prindërimi ka ndryshuar shumë vitet e fundit. Sot, familjet kanë pësu- ar ndryshime në dinamikën prind-fëmijë. Familjet janë të pushtuar nga sulme të pamëshirshme nga mediat dhe gjenden në një luftë kulturore në të cilën fëmijët ndiko- hen nga interneti, televizioni apo mesazhe të tjera [4]. Di- vorci, lodhja e prindërve dhe një mënyrë jetese e nxituar, i pengojnë prindërit të vendosin kufij, të ofrojnë disiplinë të qëndrueshme në familje andaj fëmijët nuk kanë paso- ja për sjelljet e tyre. Hulumtimet tregojnë se e gjithë kjo ka ndikuar në shëndetin mendor, emocional dhe fizik të fëmijëve me reflektim edhe në mënyrën e sjelljes dhe me- naxhimin e tyre në ordinancën stomatologjike.
Brejtja e smaltit në ortodonci – shqyrtim literature

Një prej zhvillimeve më të rëndësishme në historinë e ort- odoncisë ka qenë aplikimi i ngjitjes direkte të breketave dhe ateçmenëve tjerë ortodontik në dhëmbë, që u bë e mundur përmes brejtjes së smaltit. Për herë të parë bre- jtja e smaltit u prezantua nga Buonocore. Mirëpo, ishte George Newman ai i cili këtij veprimi i gjeti zbatim në ort- odonci duke e mundësuar ngjitjen direkte të ateçmenëve ortodontik në sipërfaqen e dhëmbit. Megjithatë, shumë shpejt u konstatua se brejtja e smaltit shkakton dëme të ndryshme në sipërfaqen e tij. Prandaj, autorë të ndryshëm kanë bërë hulumtime të shumta për të siguruar ngjitjen e mjaftueshme të ateçmenëve në dhëmb, duke shkaktuar sa më pak dëm në sipërfaqen e smaltit, përmes zvogëlimit të përqendrimit të acidit dhe kohës së veprimit.

Obturimi i tërësishëm i sistemit të kanalit të rrënjës së dhëmbit është një ndër fazat më të rëndësishme gjatë ter- apisë endodontike. Prandaj, qëllimi i këtij studimi in vitro, ishte që të vlerësohet dhe të bëhet krahasimi i mbushjes apikale me materialet endodontike me EndoRez pastë, Endomethason pastë, si dhe Resilon/Epiphany sistem, pas përpunimit të kanaleve të rrënjës së dhëmbit.

Mostrat e 80 dhëmbëve një rrënjësh të nofullës së sipërme u ndanë në tri grupe eksperimentale, varësisht prej materialit me të cilën u obturuan. Pas përpunimit me teknikën crown down, mostrat e grupit të parë u obtu- ruan me EndoRez pastë në kombinim me Thermafil ob- turatorin, mostrat e grupit të dytë u obturuan me Endo- methason pastë të kombinuara me sistemin Thermafil, si dhe mostrat e grupit të tretë u obturuan me pastën Epiphany në kombinim me Resilon. Mikrorrjedhja apikale është përcaktuar me anë të stereomikroskopit me anë të cilit është bërë matja e rrjedhjes së ngjyrës në të tretën apikale, si dhe rezultatet e fituara në mënyrë statistikore janë përpunuar dhe krahasuar me anë të t-testit.

Në grupet e përpunuara me teknikën crown down dhe të obturuara me Thermafil obturator dhe pastë të Endo- methason-it, rrjedhja mesatare e ngjyrës ishte më e lartë krahasuar me mostrat e obturuara me pastë të rezinës në kombinim me Thermafil sistemin, si dhe grupin e obturuar me Resilon/Epiphany.
Që të tri teknikat e obturimit treguan rrjedhje të ngjyrës, por mikrorrjedhje më të vogël u vlerësuan në mostrat e obturuara me Resilon/Epiphany sistemin.
Indikatorët radiomorfometrikë - Vlefshmëria e tyre në detektimin e hershëm të osteoporozës

Osteoporoza është një ndër sëmundjet më të rënda siste- mike të kockave dhe një ndër problemet më të mëdha shëndetësore në mbarë botën, jo vetëm për shkak të përkeqësimit të kualitetit të jetës, por dhe humbjes së af- tësisë, dhe eventualisht me përfundim fatal.

Osteoporoza është sëmundje progresive metabolike e kockave, e cila karakterizohet me humbje të masës kock- ore dhe dobësim mikro-arkitektural, e cila tutje zhvillo- het në formë progresive dhe karakterizohet me rritje të fragjilitetit të kockave dhe rritjes së rrezikut për frakturë të kockave. Komplikimi më i shpeshtë tek të sëmuret me osteoporozë është fraktura vertebrale dhe në shumtën e rasteve sëmundja diagnostikohet vetëm kur ndodhin thy- erjet e kockave, andaj sëmundja konsiderohet e rëndë me kosto të lartë të shërimit dhe rehabilitimit, dhe jo rrallë herë përfundon edhe me fatalitet [1-3].

Me qëllimi të diagnostikimit dhe trajtimit me kohë të os- teoporozës para se të ndodhin frakturat, shkenca ka ha- pur dimensionet e saja hulumtuese duke përfshirë dhe metoda të tjera diagnostikuese ku përveç DXA – testit (Dual-energy X-ray Absorptiometry), si testim standard, të cilat do të ishin me kosto efektive dhe me të arritshme për popullatën.
Duke qenë se shërbimet stomatologjike janë lehtësisht të qasshme dhe radiografia panoramike është pjesë e ru- tinës diagnostikuese stomatologjike, shkencëtarët kanë hulumtuar për parametra radiomorfometrik që do shër- benin për qëllime të diagnostikimit të osteoporozës në praktikën stomatologjike. Indikatorët radiomorfometrikë më të përdorur për këtë qëllim janë: indeksi kortikal man- dibular (MCI), indeksi panoramik mandibular (PMI) dhe indeksi mental (MI). Me anë të këtyre indekseve është treguar lidhshmëria e tyre në përcaktimin e hershëm të cilësisë, sasisë së kockave të nofullave dhe korrelacionin me densitetin mineral të kockave (DMK). Në bazë të krit- ereve të OBSH-së vlerat e DMK–së ndahen në:

- 1.0 deri në –2.5 (osteopeni) dhe
- nën –2.5 (osteoporozë).

Një prej teknikave më të sakta për matjen e DMK-së është testi DXA. Në shumë vende, shumica e popullsisë nuk ar- rijnë të përballojnë koston e testit DXA, prandaj bëhen hulumtimet alternative diagnostike [4-6].

New Models of Azerbaijani, Turkish and English Proverbs
Authors:   Philological Faculty of the Azerbaijan State Pedagogical University, Baku, MEMMEDOV KHANKISHI
Published: April 2023

"There are now many works on this subject in academic journals around the world. The reason is very simple: there are enough intelligent people who bow and kneel before the depth, wisdom, power, intelligence and reason of the untold wealth of the peopleʼs history called folklore. This study examines several new models of proverbs and their structural-semantic analysis, not found either in reality or in academic folklore archives. It is noted that these models and terms are used in the literature for the first time by the author of these lines. These are the following: 1) dildonmez (unrelenting) proverbs – here the consonants “l” and “r” are not used, causing the tongue to turn in the mouth; in other words, the language in such works should remain in a stable state and not change its state during the performance; 2) evvel-akhir (beginning-end) proverbs – (literally “beginning-end”, i.e. the same sound at the beginning and at the end of the line); 3) chokhyarpag (multi-leaved) proverbs – literally “multi-leaf”; where the text is built on cross rhymes and named according to the number of cross lines: ikiyarpag/goshayarpag (two-leaved/double leaved), uchyarpag (three-leaved), dordyarpag (four-leaved), beshyarpag (five-leaved), etc. The results of the study show that the internal semantics of proverbs hides an inexhaustible stylistic richness, as well as reveal the possibility of creating images of languages. It is noted that, from the point of view of the modern system of thinking, the new models of approach of Azerbaijani, Turkish and English proverbs “dildonmez”, “evvel-akhir” and “chokhyarpag” require their systematic study, as well as their transmission to the younger generations. Because today the world needs more intellectual weapons, and this is the need of the hour. Keywords: Azerbaijani folklore, Turkish folklore, English folklore, “dildonmez” proverbs, “evvel-akhir” proverbs, “chokhyarpag” proverbs, structural-semantic analysis."
Personal Experience Stories at the Crossroad of Archaeology and Folklore
Authors:   Bartın University, Turkey, KARATAŞ HİCRAN
Published: April 2023

"Archaeological heritage of Turkey has been suffering for ages from severe destruction through the activities of local antiquities looters. The main reasons for this escalating phenomenon among the Turkish population include poverty, enhanced global demand for looted archaeological material in the worldwide market, gaps in laws, folklore, and the addiction to adrenalin experienced by looters. To comprehend the ongoing archaeological destruction caused by looters in Turkey, we need to be willing to investigate their folklore formed in the framework of illicit looting. Even though Turkish law strictly states looting as a crime, Anatolian-Turkish folklore, including oral tradition, does not condemn looters even as deviants. Hence, folklore must be listed as one of the significant excuses why Anatolian archaeological heritage keeps being looted. In recent decades, the destruction of archaeological sites of Anatolia and the loss of cultural heritage have entered a dangerous phase due to local looters having access to technological devices, software, and international connections, as well as folkloric spiritual, ritualistic guidance. My research aims to understand how and under which circumstances looters become looters in the first place. Keywords: Turkey, cultural heritage, folklore, antiquities looters, personal experience narratives. "

"The article analyzes folk winter holidays celebrated in December before Christmas as the greatest holiday of all Christians. There is a combination of folk (pre-Christian) traditions with Christian traditions, which co-exist to this day. The holidays analyzed in the research are dedicated to the most common names of saints in Western Podillya (as well as in Ukraine as a whole), which are most often given to the local residents. Dmytro’s/St. Demetrios Day celebration, in addition to its Christian custom, characterized by church services in memory of martyrs and honoring birthday people, is also known by the traditions related to celebrating the land in winter period, protecting cattle, as well as the cult of deceased ancestors. Celebrations of Dmytro’s/St. Demetrios holiday are proceeded by the celebration of Michael’s Day, which symbolizes the arrival of winter. In Western Podillya St. Michael is known as a protector against evil forces. He is also perceived by the locals as the patron saint of wild forest animals and hunters. Until the middle of the 20th century St. Catherine’s Day celebration in Western Podillya followed the rituals reflecting pre-Christian beliefs. Among them are rites of “destiny calling”, fortune telling and divination (considering the destiny of a future marriage couple), as well as honoring the cult of ancestors. During Varvara/St. Barbara celebration the most evident are magical actions associated with fire and water as the main elements in the world creation and symbols of the Nativity of Jesus Christ in the Christian tradition. Such lunar symbols as dumplings and pies are important for the understanding of celebration rituals. Most ritual actions convey love courtships related to the choice of a future marriage partner. St. Anna’s holiday completes the cycle of holidays related to Christmas celebrations. It marks the beginning of Christmas preparations: women clean houses, men arrange farm buildings and property, provide food for festive meals, girls organize groups for singing carols and other traditional customs of Christmas holidays celebration. Keywords: Western Podillya, Christian religion, ceremonial action, divination, folk holiday. "

"Authors concentrate on the very fact that there existed among the cultures of Eurasia songs resembling Japanese oiwake, this uniquely sophisticated form that were also in some respects analogous to it in significance. That solo-performed lyric “long” song is an international phenomenon, one that is found to this day along practically the entire length of the Great Silk Road. Such masterworks constitute one-of-a-kind creative products that are, as it were, Mona Lisas of oral tradition. Authors gave the creator of lyric songs, the lyric singer and poet, the name Homo Lyricus. The article consists of six sections: Just how unique is oiwake? (preface); Methodological foundations (after Boris Putilov); Toward future research: hypotheses and limitations; Lyric drawn-out song in the great expanse of typological succession; On the problem of authorship in Eurasian drawn-out song; Some concluding theses on freedom as the essence of lyric song; and a musical supplement. Note: “folkloric culture,” as opposed to “folk culture,” the term is Boris Putilov’s.

Staff turnover is an important issue in SMEs in Nigeria. Staff turnover refers to voluntary resignation from or involuntary loss of a job. Findings indicate that resolutions on staff turnover are usually based on subjective interpretation of a range of internal or external factors in the workplace. The internal factors include job satisfaction, organizational commitment and age, while the external factors usually comprise the social environment, educational experiences, family responsibilities, religious beliefs and changing work values. Increasing rate of staff turnover is a disturbing problem to employers in Nigeria, especially in the SME sub-sector mostly affected by both voluntary and involuntary turnover of labour as a result of the search for job satisfaction and higher wages fuelled by the get-rich-quick mentality of an average Nigerian youth. This development underscored this study which evaluated the factors responsible for staff turnover intentions and the on SMEs. Keywords: Staff turnover, job satisfaction, SMES, Labour, Employers.
Transformational Leadership Style: Implication for Nursing Practice
Authors:   Department of Business Administration Nexus International University Uganda., Chika F. Ogenyi
Published: April 2023

Nurse leaders are responsible for fostering an atmosphere of ongoing education and professional growth via the mentoring of their fellow nurses. They also serve as role models for younger nurses, some of whom may eventually advance to leadership positions within the nursing profession. Accordingly, building strong nurse leadership abilities are very necessary for those who work in the nursing profession and want to develop their careers. To develop one's leadership potential, it is frequently necessary to hone in on a core set of abilities that are particularly applicable to nursing administration. These abilities include the ability to make decisions, provide direction, resolve conflicts, effectively communicate, and adjust to changing circumstances. Nurse leaders are continually required to make choices, both big and little, ranging from the formulation of rules for the nursing staff to the upkeep of patient records. Nurse leaders are looked up to by resident nurses and other junior nurses for decision-making and guidance on a day-today basis. Skills in efficient, unambiguous, and effective decision-making will result in a health sector that is more structured and pushed in the direction it should go. Nurse leaders are therefore required to use interpersonal and motivational leadership tactics in order to effectively lead the individual and group of trainee nurses who report to them. Within the context of the health care system, this paper reviewed transformational leadership style and its implication for nursing practice. Keywords: Transformational, Leadership, Style, Implication and Nursing.

Effective time management in the work of a manager is an important prerequisite for achieving strategic goals of the organization. Time is a special and worthy commodity that is given equally to everyone regardless of age, nationality, whether public or private sector. Time is always ever present to everyone, but no one ever seems to have enough of it. In Nigeria, the need for time management in organizations especially the public service cannot be over emphasized. Time management helps in achieving individual and organizational goals in view of the limited amount of time available to man. The study therefore beams a search light on organizational activities and effective time management, as well as, the relationship between managers and subordinates as regards time management. The effective management of time and other inputs or resources in a system is behind growing productivity, while the ineffective management of these inputs accounts for ebbing productivity and, the manager is responsible for this management in the system. Reports show that 3 out of 4 ventures die every year in Nigeria. This is not unconnected with ineffective management of time and other material and human inputs or resources in the venture. Consequently, this paper examined ways of promoting sustainable productivity and employee performance through effective time management. Keywords: Organisational, Activities, Time, Public Relations and Practitioners.
