Authors: Dumlao Mildred Lerios
Published: July 2024

The purpose of this study was to determine the home literacy environment and the reading levels of Grade 2 learners, as perceived by reading facilitators in Palauig District, Schools Division of Zambales, during the School Year 2023-2024. A quantitative-descriptive research approach was utilized for this study. Data collection was conducted through a validated questionnaire. The questionnaire focused on various aspects of the home literacy environment, including reading materials, access to community resources, engagement in reading activities, and involvement in reading. Additionally, Filipino and English reading levels of learners were evaluated using CRLAbased reading levels. The results indicated that both learners and reading facilitators recognized the importance of HLEs, particularly in terms of reading materials, access to community resources, engagement in reading activities, and involvement in reading. However, the Filipino and English reading results of learners revealed a light refresher reading level, as per the CRLA-based assessment. Furthermore, there was no significant difference observed in the perception of HLEs between learners and reading facilitators across all dimensions. Additionally, there was a very low and non-significant correlation found between learners' HLEs and their CRLA-based reading levels, which persisted across various dimensions. The study concluded that there is a need for an enhanced program targeting specific areas identified for improvement in the HLEs and the reading levels of Grade 2 learners. Despite the recognition of the importance of HLEs by both learners and reading facilitators, the study highlighted the need for interventions to address the observed light refresher reading levels and the lack of significant correlation between HLEs and reading levels.

Authors: Thomas Jullu Grayson , Amos Onesmo
Published: July 2024

This study focused on exploring Teachers’ Perceptions of Inclusive Education of Students with Hearing Impairment in Public Secondary Schools in Morogoro Municipal, Tanzania. Students with hearing impairment have equitable access to education. The research employed a mixed research philosophy, whereby the convergent research design was used. The sample size used was 32 respondents, where 30 are teachers, heads of schools, and Municipal Secondary Education Special Need Educational Officers (HoS and MSESNO). The instruments used were questionnaires and interviews. The study found positive perceptions of teachers on inclusive education of students with hearing impairment. The study also found that teachers don’t know how to use sign language which is the medium of information for students with hearing impairment. The study found that most of the respondents understand what inclusive education means, inadequate professional development, inadequate assistive technology for students with hearing impairment in inclusive regular schools Poor environmental conditions disrupt learning and teaching activities, few specialist teachers, and lack of stakeholder involvement make difficult to provide education for students with inclusive education also the curriculum is not suit students with hearing impairment. The study recommends in-service training of inclusive classroom teachers should be done from time to time by rechecking the inclusive education policies. Secondly, government should reform the curriculum which should show how students with disabilities are equitable access to education within the classroom. Thirdly, most teachers should be trained in using sign language to help students with hearing impairment in highly achieving academically. Fourthly, the infrastructure being rebuilt or built should be conducive to meeting the needs of all learners with disabilities as well as the availability of all assistive devices that may harmonize the learning process. By doing so, Tanzania may attain one of the keys to sustainable millennium goals of ‘Education for All’.
TRANSLANGUAGING PRACTICES LECTURERS USE WHEN TEACHING LITERACY AND LANGUAGE IN MULTILILINGUAL CLASSROOMS AT A SELECTED UNIVERSITY IN ZAMBIA
Authors: Ruth Mungala , Sani Mwanza David
Published: July 2024

The purpose of the study was to analyse translanguaging practices lecturers used in their lectures at one selected public university in Zambia. This study was conducted after all the lecturers underwent two years’ training on multilingual education and mother tongue based multilingual language teaching strategies including translanguaging. The lecturers were trained because they were not familiar with translanguaging pedagogy despite Zambia being multilingual and that they needed to train primary school teachers how to teach multilingual learners in Zambian multilingual classrooms. The study was conducted on a sample of 20 literacy and language degree students who were in the first year and 5 lecturers teaching literacy and language at the university. The sample was homogeneously selected and interview guides were used to collect data from lecturers while classroom observation method was used to collect data from classrooms. The study found that most lecturers translanguaged using practices such as code switching, translation and code mixing. The study showed that most lecturers and students translanguaged while a few did not. Those who did not translanguage explained that university teaching did not require translanguaging on the assumption that university students were proficient in English. Therefore, the study concludes that even with intensive training on translanguaging pedagogy, it is impossible for some university lecturers to apply translanguaging pedagogy at the university level owing to the anecdotal assumption that all university students are proficient in English.

Novel Repetitive Control Technique for Three Phase Four Wire Shunt Active Power Filter
Authors: CHODAVARAPU DIVYASREE ,   Department of EEE,Aditya College of Engineering & Technology,Surampalem,A.P,India, PRASAD Dr. K R K V
Published: July 2024

Abstract- Within the scope of this paper is an illustration of a discrete repeating control mechanism for a three phase, four wire (3P4W) shunt active power filter (SAPF). In power electronics device control designs, it is common practice to make use of two control loops: one with a quick acting inner current control loop and another with a slow acting outside voltage loop. The PI regulator has a hard time keeping track of the reference for the inner current loop since it is periodic. The ability of the repetitive controllers, sometimes known as RC, to follow periodic signals is well known and has earned them widespread recognition. RCs provide great gain at all frequencies. The significant increase in the higher frequency band may contribute to instability. As a direct consequence of this, the sensitivity function of the regular RC will be squared in the research that is being suggested. For the purpose of enhancing the power supply's overall quality, this project makes use of a fuzzy logic controller. This technique results in a sensitivity function that has a moderate amplitude, and it provides significant notches at frequencies ranging from low to middle, while it creates less notches at higher frequencies. This control approach has been evaluated on the 3P4W SAPF, and it is now being implemented there. Index Terms—Repetitive Control, Active Power filter, harmonic compensation, Power Quality, 3P4W, Load Compensation, Non-linear load, Unbalanced Load, Fuzzy logic controller.
PV- STATCOM FOR POWER OSCILLATION DAMPING USING FUZZY LOGIC CONTROLLER
Authors: SWAMY PURAMSETTI , RAJANI Dr. BODDEPALLI
Published: July 2024

Abstract- Flexible AC Transmission System (FACTS) devices like Static-Synchronous Compensators (STATCOM) have been used to improve the quality and control of power systems. This paper presents a Photovoltaic (PV) system as a STATCOM, termed PV- STATCOM, which utilizes a Fuzzy Logic Controller. The primary purpose of the STATCOM is to achieve Power Oscillation Damping (POD).During the day, when the system experiences oscillations, the PV inverter in the PV- STATCOM temporarily suspends real power generation (for a few tens of seconds) to act as a STATCOM and dampen the oscillations. Once the damping is achieved, the PV inverter's real power generation is gradually restored to its pre-disturbance levels. This allows for faster grid power restoration compared to grid code requirements. At night, when there is no real power generation from the PV array, the PV inverters can use their full capacity to dampen power oscillations. MATLAB simulations indicate that the proposed PV- STATCOM significantly increases power transfer capacity under various oscillation modes. Furthermore, the PV-STATCOM is a more cost-effective solution for POD compared to equivalent STATCOM devices. This method has the potential to provide substantial savings for power generation and distribution companies. Index Terms--Photovoltaic solar power systems, voltage control, reactive power control, power oscillation damping, FACTS, STATCOM, power transmission, PV ramp rate Fuzzy logic controller.
Factors that affect a better fiscally autonomous government: Evidence from an Indonesian newly autonomous region
Authors: Sukmadilaga Citra , Pramanda Muhamad Andri Arif , Yadiati Winwin , Yunita Devianti
Published: July 2024

This study aims to investigate the influence of fiscal decentralization and socio-economic determinants on fiscal autonomy, taking into account anti-corruption efforts as a moderating variable. This study uses a dataset that spans 5 years and focuses specifically on 74 recently established autonomous regions in Indonesia after the year 2004. This study shows that the factors that indicate fiscal decentralization, such as locally created sources of funds and means of profit sharing, have a favorable and significant influence on fiscal autonomy. In contrast, total allocated funds have a detrimental and significant impact, but the special fund has a negligible impact on fiscal autonomy. This study shows a strong and statistically significant correlation between local investment and fiscal autonomy when socio-economic aspects are taken into account. However, the analysis showed that inward investment has an unfavorable impact that is not statistically significant. Furthermore, this study shows that anti-corruption, when treated as a separate factor, has a favorable and notable influence. Furthermore, when used as a moderating variable, it can serve as a quasi-moderator for the relationship between each of the independent variables and fiscal autonomy, which acts as the dependent variable. His study contributes to the existing body of knowledge on fiscal decentralization by providing a more comprehensive understanding of its influence on fiscal autonomy.

Interior Wireless Channel Design and Performance Analysis
Authors: Jun Lim , Abdullah M.F.L
Published: July 2024

Infrared light for indoor wireless communications has received considerable attention recently. Unfortunately infrared are more susceptible to shadowing or noise source and have stringent alignment requirements. However, a reliable communication can be made possible by the design of transceiver, which in turn depends on designer’s knowledge on the propagation properties at infrared frequency and characterized infrared channel by measurements. The objective of this work, is to setup an indoor wireless infrared communication system, based on the Line of Sight (LOS) transmission link using a laser diode as the transmitter device and a photodiode as the receiver device. The main purpose of this setup is to determine the best channel characterization for an optical wireless communication by varying the parameters such as receiver bandwidth and transmission distance. This work is divided into two parts. The first part is to design and stimulate a transimpedance amplifier receiver with bandwidth adjustment capabilities using Multisim. The stimulation results shows that by varying the designed transimpedance amplifier receiver bandwidth, produces a cutoff frequency range between 10MHz to 100MHz while the gain remains at 15dB. Optsim is used to determine the eyediagram, bit error rate and the Q factor of the optical wireless system when the transmission distance is varied. The stimulated results shows that as the distance increase, the bit error rate decreased. The second part of this work is to setup the experimental system. The experimental measurement shows that the maximum transmission distance is 4m. As the distance increased, the transmitted signal becomes distorted due to ambient noise. The measured gain at 0m is -4.8dB, compared to the stimulated gain has a difference of 19.8dB.

Published: July 2024

The study aimed to examine the effect of feeding date palm with a product-based ration on the productivity of Awassi ewes raised intensively in the Qatari environment. The two matching total mixed rations consisted primarily of Rhodes and barely grains (CD), discarded dates, and crushed fronds (NCD). Forty-four Awassi ewes were divided into two matching groups. The groups were allocated randomly to the dietary treatments in a randomized block design experiment of 2 rams (mature fertile male sheep). Dates of service and lambing, ewes’ weights at conception and lambing, and lambs’ weights at birth and weaning (at 90 days of age) were registered. The type of diet had no effect on percentages of conceived and lambed ewes: gestation (150 ± 3.4 days), lambing interval periods (326 ± 17.4 days), litter size (117 ± 37.9 lambs/100 ewes), litter birth weight (3.9 ± 1.07 kg/lambing ewe), litter weaning weight (20.4 ± 5.83 kg/lambing ewe), weight of weaned lambs/ewe/year, weight of weaned lambs/kg of ewe weight/year, and weight of weaned lambs/kg0.75 of ewe weight/year. The NCD group had higher feed intakes (dry matter, DM, metabolizable energy, ME, and crude protein, CP) than the CD group. However, in terms of cost, NCD had a low cost of daily feed intake (1.88 vs. 2.42 riyals/ewe/day) and a cost of one kilogram of weaned lambs/ewe/year (30.8 vs. 43.2 riyals). It was concluded that feed based on date palm byproducts provided a performance not different from conventional feed but at a low feed cost.
Exploring the Dynamic Interplay between Religion and Culture: A Multidisciplinary Inquiry
Authors: Chukwudebelu Ifeanyi A.
Published: July 2024

This interdisciplinary study explores the symbiotic relationship between religion and culture, analyzing their dynamic interaction across diverse historical and geographical landscapes. Religion, as a non-material facet of culture, operates as a central institution characterized by rituals, beliefs, and communal practices, addressing existential questions concerning life, death, and purpose. Conversely, culture provides the contextual framework within which religious beliefs and practices develop and are expressed, reflecting the values, norms, and traditions of a particular society. Through a qualitative research framework drawing insights from anthropology, sociology, history, and religious studies, this study examines historical texts, scholarly articles, ethnographic data, and case studies to elucidate the multifaceted dimensions of the relationship between religion and culture. By integrating insights from various disciplines, this study aims to provide a nuanced understanding of the dynamic interdependence between religion and culture, offering fresh perspectives on how religion shapes cultural identity, societal norms, and individual beliefs. Furthermore, by highlighting the adaptability and resilience of cultural traditions in the face of religious influences, this study contributes to a deeper understanding of the complexities of human societies and the enduring influence of religion on cultural evolution. Through its comprehensive analysis, this study underscores the importance of studying religion and culture as intertwined phenomena that shape human experience and identity across diverse contexts.

Fraude in het betalingsverkeer: invloed van de mate van nalatigheid op de verdeling van de schade tussen de betaaldienstgebruiker en de betaaldienstverlener in het licht van artikel 169 VWEU

In deze bijdrage geven de auteurs hun visie op de onderdelen van PSD2, PSD3 en PSR die zien op de verdeling van de uit fraude in het betalingsverkeer voortvloeiende schade tussen de betaaldienstgebruiker en betaaldienstverlener. Uit artikel 169 VWEU blijkt dat de Unie ernaar streeft een hoog niveau van consumentenbescherming te waarborgen. Uit PSD2, PSD3 en PSR volgt dat de Europese wetgever kennelijk niet beoogt om het niveau van consumentenbescherming zodanig hoog te leggen dat betaaldienstgebruikers onder alle omstandigheden gevrijwaard dienen te worden van een uit betalingsfraude voortvloeiende schade. Op basis van PSD2 komen in beginsel alle verliezen die uit niet-toegestane betalingstransacties voortvloeien voor rekening van de betaaldienstgebruiker, indien deze verliezen zich hebben voorgedaan doordat hij frauduleus heeft gehandeld of opzettelijk of met grove nalatigheid één of meer van de op hem rustende verplichtingen niet is nagekomen. In beginsel, omdat in gevallen waarin de betaaldienstgebruiker, zonder frauduleus of opzettelijk te hebben gehandeld, de op hem rustende plichten niet is nagekomen, de rechter de aansprakelijkheid van de betaaldienstgebruiker kan beperken, met name rekening houdend met de aard van de persoonlijke beveiligingsgegevens van het betaalinstrument en met de omstandigheden waarin het is verloren, gestolen of onrechtmatig gebruikt. Door de auteurs wordt gezocht naar een antwoord op de vraag of de in PSD2, PSD3 en PSR opgenomen regels in voldoende mate bijdragen aan een hoog niveau van consumentenbescherming in het geval van fraude in het betalingsverkeer.
Child in Conflict with Law in India: Changing Concerns and Constraints
Authors: Parvez Nadeem , Gauhar Fasih Raghib
Published: July 2024

The irrefutable presumption that a child is innocent and incapable of committing any crime is refuted when that child commits a crime. These individuals are referred to as juveniles because they are not yet deemed mature enough to be held accountable for their actions in committing a crime. This article examines the various aspects of juvenile delinquency in India, with a particular emphasis on the state of Uttar Pradesh. The study examines the laws, organizations, and social and economic elements that influence the development of juvenile justice in this heavily populated and diversified state. The research endeavours to illuminate the effectiveness of juvenile justice policies and procedures by employing a blend of legal analysis, empirical research, and case studies. The research utilizes a broad interdisciplinary approach to examine the underlying causes, prevalent patterns, and socio-economic factors that contribute to juvenile delinquency. The study seeks to reveal the distinct contextual elements that impact rates of adolescent delinquency. Furthermore, it examines the efficacy of current rehabilitation and intervention programs, doing a thorough evaluation of their influence on the rehabilitation of juvenile offenders. The paper aims to provide significant insights to the academic discussion and policy formulation about juvenile justice in India. In the fast-changing contemporary landscape, it is necessary to periodically update the rules pertaining to juvenile justice and the imperative of safeguarding and nurturing them. Although the 2021 Amendment law has been officially published in the gazette, it is still pending enforcement by the central authority. In theory, the process of identifying answers and making necessary changes to the law is one aspect. However, the crucial point that remains is the timing and the level of effectiveness at which these changes will be put into practice and considered successful.

Grouping animals based on their morphological characteristics is crucial for understanding biodiversity and evolutionary relationships among species. This study aims to apply the K-Means Clustering algorithm to group animals based on their morphological characteristics and evaluate its performance. A secondary dataset from Kaggle containing 101 animals with 18 morphological attributes was used. Data preprocessing techniques such as handling missing data, removing irrelevant columns, and data normalization were performed. The optimal number of clusters was determined using the Davies-Bouldin Index and Silhouette Score, which resulted in 5 clusters as the best number. The K-Means algorithm successfully grouped the data into 5 clusters: flying animals with feathers, aquatic animals with fins, terrestrial mammals with hair and milk production, animals with many legs such as reptiles and insects, and terrestrial predators. Visualization of the clustering results using 3D scatter plots provided a clear visual representation. Interpretation of the results revealed patterns and evolutionary relationships between different groups of animals based on their morphological characteristics. This research contributes to the understanding of biodiversity, ecology, evolution, and conservation through morphology-based clustering, and demonstrates the effectiveness of the K-Means algorithm in this task.

O     capim     Vaquero é  uma promissora grama bermuda propagada    via    sementes resultado da mistura dos cultivares Pyramid, Mirage e CD90160, entretanto, por se tratar de uma gramínea em expansão, são escassas as informações sobre sua qualidade, especialmente na forma de forragem conservada como feno. Assim, objetivou-se avaliar as alterações bromatologicas em feno de capim Vaquero obtido em campo de produção de feno e armazenado até 56 dias. Adotou-se o delineamento inteiramente casualizado com seis tratamentos que corresponderam aos tempos de amostragem: -3 (momento do corte); 0 (momento do enfardamento); 7; 14; 28 e 56 dias (períodos de armazenamento), com quatro repetições. Mensurou-se os conteúdos de matéria seca (MS), matéria mineral (MM), matéria orgânica (MO), proteína bruta (PB), fibra em detergente neutro (FDN), fibra em detergente ácido (FDA) e hemicelulose, digestibilidade da matéria seca (DIGMS), nutrientes digestíveis totais (NDT), consumo de matéria seca em percentual do peso vivo (CMSPV) e valor relativo da forragem (VRF). Todos os parâmetros estudados foram afetados pelos tempos do período experimental com redução linear nos teores de MS, MM, FDN, FDA, hemicelulose e aumento linear da PB, DIGMS, NDT, CMSPV e VRF. Durante o periodo de armazenamento de 56 dias houve melhora no valor nutricional do feno de capim Vaquero evidenciado pelo aumento na PB, DIGMS, NDT, CMSPV e VRF e redução nos constituintes fibrosos (FDN, FDA e hemicelulose).

As invasões biológicas constituem uma das principais causas de perda de biodiversidade pelo mundo. Em ambientes aquáticos, a principal via de introdução de espécies exóticas é o escape acidental de espécies dos empreendimentos de aquicultura. Neste trabalho, objetivamos diagnosticar a piscicultura de espécies exóticas no estado de Mato Grosso, a fim de alertar para os possíveis danos ambientais que ela pode causar. Utilizamos os dados de produção aquícola do Estado de Mato Grosso, disponíveis na plataforma Sistema IBGE de Recuperação Automática – SIDRA, do Instituto Brasileiro de Geografia e Estatística (IBGE), no período de 2013 a 2019. Considerando as espécies cultivadas, i.e., nativas, não nativas e híbridas, a produção aquícola do Estado de Mato Grosso é baseada na exploração comercial de 28 espécies de peixes, sendo 78,57% de espécies nativas, 14,28% de híbridas e 7,15% de espécies exóticas introduzidas. Durante o período de 2013 a 2019, houve decréscimo de 55% na produção total do Estado, mostrando que apesar do desaquecimento do setor, há constância na produção de espécies exóticas, principalmente de tilápia, esta, listada como uma das maiores preocupações globais no que tange a invasões biológicas. Avaliamos que a produção aquícola de espécies exóticas constitui um sério risco à biodiversidade local, devendo ser evitada. Por outro lado, a produção de espécies nativas na aquicultura, deve ser incentivada devido ao seu grande potencial produtivo.

This research aimed to obtain nanosized magnetic particles with radioactive properties. Cesium ferrite nanoparticles (CsFeO2) were produced using the sol-gel/combustion method and the samples were characterized by FTIR, and showed peaks in the bands 305 cm-1 and 328 cm-1 attributed to g-Fe2O3, peaks at 318 cm-1 and 343 cm-1 reveal a secondary α-Fe2O3 phase, vibrations at 354 cm-1 are attributed to Fe-O in the octahedral sites. The neutral irradiation activated several radionuclides. The irradiation for 2h with the acquisition times of 600s and 7200s yielded Cs-134, Cs-134m and Mn-56, which was produced from the reaction 56Fe (nr, p) 56Mn. The irradiation of 4h with the acquisition times of 18000s yielded Fe-59 with Cs-134. The results of the present work show that it is possible to activate CsFeO2 nanoparticles by neutron irradiation to obtain potentially useful radioisotopes.
