Use of Radio in Educating Diverse Cultures among Ado Ekiti Residents
Authors: I. O. Ajisafe, , D. Dada,
Published: December 2024

The history of human communication began with the oral or spoken tradition. Through the course of history, the dissemination of messages progressed from oral tradition to script, print, wired electronics, wireless electronics, and finally digital communication. This paper is about the use of radio in educating diverse cultures among Ado Ekiti residents. We are all different, hence, it is important to recognize each other's communication manners, and then learn to handle them. This paper examines intercultural communication and the importance of recognizing each other's communication manners and learning to handle it. Conditions for effective intercultural communication were discussed in the paper explaining the purpose and the principles of broadcasting, the nature of radio and television broadcasting, advantages and disadvantages of intercultural communication via broadcasting. It is imperative to note that communication is the active relationship established between people through language and several other forms whether it’s verbal or written communication. Therefore, it is germane to interpret what you see or hear exactly the way it is to evade needless confusion. When broadcasting, it is also very important to use simple and clear words while portraying your message so as not to be misinterpreted. This paper suggests the need for the government to promote the use of radio broadcasting in the state by providing adequate equipment and building the capacity of personnel in the industry. Dispensing information through this means would go a long way in educating, informing, and entertaining residents of the state with diverse cultural backgrounds.

Enhancing Data Security in Banking: The Power of Hybrid Algorithm-Based Solutions
Authors: Rakesh Bhavsar
Published: December 2024

A safe financial system requires a safe security system. It takes a secure banking system to stop sensitive data from being stolen from customers and banks. Important information may be quickly and easily exchanged online in the modern society. A hacker may more easily take our information the easier it is to transmit information. Thus, a robust security mechanism is necessary. Currently, a banking system must guarantee the secrecy of the customer's data in order to preserve the customer's trust in the system and data security. Bank-based security systems are made secure by means of cryptographic methods.
In RSA and ECC, two keys are generated: a private key and a public key. It is the best data security technique to protect the bank against online fraud. Stated differently, the digital signature standard and associated message verification are created by both public key algorithms. Moreover, the Diffie Hellman algorithm is calculated to provide the user's keys in a secure way. Regarding mutual authentication and key exchange, it is evident that ECC is more robust and offers more advantages than RSA. Elliptic Curve Cryptography and Random Access Keys (RSA) are two distinct asymmetric algorithms that are used in this research to create a strong security system that improves data security and takes into account key exchange and mutual authentication between two untrusted parties. Our system is protected against unwanted access by the use of the encryption methods RSA and ECC.

Published: December 2024

In this study, the effects of different heat treatment temperatures and times on the mechanical properties and microstructure of Twinning Induced Plasticity (TWIP) steel were examined. TWIP steel slabs produced by casting were shaped into plates by hot and cold rolling processes, respectively. The heat treatments were carried out at 600, 700, 800, and 900 °C for 20, 60, and 150 min. As a result of the experiments, M3C carbide precipitates were formed instead of twinning in the tempered sheets at 600 °C and 700 °C, and twinning occurred at 800 °C and 900 °C. The microstructure analysis and mechanical test results demonstrate that the carbide precipitates prevent twinning plane formation. The Vickers hardness and tensile test results showed the intense presence of carbides at 600 °C and 700 °C and twinning at 800 °C and 900 °C. As the annealing temperature and time increased, a decrease in hardness and tensile strength was observed. Elongation increased. However, as a result of annealing at 600 °C for 20 minutes, an increase in elongation and tensile strength was observed compared to the untreated sample.

This article describes the writings of one group of Hungarians in exile: the National Socialists in the period 1945–91. The followers of Ferenc Szálasi, the head of the short-lived National Socialist government, remained united. They found nothing in their past that they were willing to repudiate. They were proud of the Hungarian past and felt other nations did not appreciate Hungarian achievements. They remained convinced that Hungary by fighting on the side of Nazi Germany in fact had been protecting Western Europe from Communist tyranny. They looked at the liberal West with hostility. They claimed to see the conspiracies of the Jews both in the Soviet Union and in the United States.
Investigating Korean Language Learning Motivations: Trend and Implications
Authors: Wang Hye-Sook , Kelly Keenan
Published: December 2024

Due in part to the influence of Hallyu, student enrollment in Korean language courses at universities across America has skyrocketed. This study examines the various motivations college students have for studying the Korean language, paying particular attention to three variables. Six hundred and fifty-three responses collected for over 5 years in Korean language courses at an American university were categorized via an original framework for language learning motivations and analyzed using descriptive statistics to see a trend. The results demonstrated that the popularity of the various motivation categories differed noticeably by course level, gender, and heritage/nonheritage learner background. The desire to become a global citizen through travel and consume Korean popular culture drove many beginners to learn Korean, whereas students in the higher-level courses tended to be motivated either by a desire to connect with their families (for heritage learners) or by career prospects associated with Korean language proficiency (for nonheritage learners). Familial connections were also an important motivation for male students, whereas female students tended to note interests in Korean popular culture as most important. The study suggests that similar data at other universities could be useful in developing and utilizing effective curricular resources to motivate and retain Korean language learners.

A Cultural Mind That Computes
Authors: Li Weihua , Wu Jialei
Published: December 2024

The issue of nature vs. nurture in the field of education has enjoyed a long history of debate and discussion. In this article, we try to approach it from the perspectives of both cognitive neuroscience and developmental psychology in the attempt of developing a new cognitive-cultural perspective of education. We argue that education is essentially a cultural practice that could be viewed as a type of information processing due to its tight connection to language and cognitive process. We also bring forth a new dual-narrative framework that has the potential of explaining cultural phenomena related to issues faced in compatibility and identity development, both of which in our opinion are quite urgent matters that need to be addressed and discussed more in education.

Research on Problem-Oriented Teaching of Ideological and Political Theory Courses in Colleges and Universities
Authors: Wang Yajun , Huang Yongxin
Published: December 2024

The process of teaching ideological and political theory courses in colleges and universities is a process of resolving doubts and confusions. Problems are the chain that runs through this process and are the motivation for the development of thinking activities. The teaching of ideological and political theory courses in colleges and universities must adhere to problem orientation. Problem orientation is a distinctive feature of Marxism, an inherent requirement for teaching ideological and political theory courses well, and an era requirement that adapts to the needs of student development. Problem-oriented teaching activities must adhere to the basic principles of unity between theoretical indoctrination and problem inspiration, unity between teacher leadership and student subjectivity, and unity between value guidance and emphasis on effectiveness. As the main force in cultivating morality and cultivating souls, teachers of ideological and political theory courses should adhere to problem orientation, establish a student-centered teaching concept under problem orientation, optimize the teaching content system with "problems" as clues, and innovate teaching methods based on problem-based teaching.

In the realm of econometrics, the estimation of average treatment effects (ATE) has traditionally dominated causal inference, often oversimplifying the complex, heterogeneous nature of individual responses to interventions. This study introduces a nuanced approach, "Beyond the Average: Personalized Causal Inference in Econometrics with Machine Learning, " which leverages advanced machine learning (ML) algorithms to shift the focus towards personalized causal effects (PCE), thereby uncovering the variability in treatment effects across individuals. Utilizing a synthetic dataset designed to reflect realistic economic behaviors and responses, we employed Gradient Boosting Machines (GBM) and Causal Forests among other ML techniques to estimate conditional average treatment effects (CATE), providing insights into the heterogeneity of treatment impacts. Our methodology encompassed comprehensive data preprocessing, feature selection based on economic theory and ML insights, and rigorous model validation processes. The results reveal significant heterogeneity in treatment effects, challenging the conventional reliance on ATE and highlighting the importance of considering individual characteristics in policy design and evaluation. Specifically, younger individuals and those with lower income and education levels exhibited markedly different responses to the financial literacy intervention, suggesting that personalized approaches could significantly enhance the effectiveness of such programs. This study not only demonstrates the feasibility and value of applying ML to econometric analysis for personalized causal inference but also lays the groundwork for future research aimed at integrating these methodologies into practical policy - making. By moving beyond the average and embracing the complexity of individual differences, econometric analysis can offer more targeted, effective, and equitable solutions to societal challenges.

The Government of Andhra Pradesh has unleashed a new era in School Education by introducing extensive curricular reforms by bringing in a curriculum of national standards, teaching methods and an appropriate third party assessment system to the children studying in the Government schools with a long - term objective of preparing children for the challenges and career opportunities of 21st century so that they would grow into Global Citizens. The School Education Department of Andhra Pradesh, the largest department of the state, manages and regulates schools in various districts of the state. The primary and secondary school education is imparted by government, aided and private schools. These schools are categorized as urban, rural and residential schools. In 1950 - 51, the enrolment of girls was only 16 lakhs out of total enrolment of 67 lakhs in Class VI - VIII, then it followed an upward trend and in the year 2011 - 12, the enrolment of girls was 299 lakhs out of 630 lakh total enrolment. The enrolment rate of girls was 23.88 per cent in 1950 - 51 session and it increased up to 47.46 per cent in the 2011 - 12 session. The increase in this percentage is more than double, but even in 2011 - 12, fewer girls were enrolled in elementary school as compared to boys. Gender gaps in education increased with the level of education and if there are gaps in school enrolment then these gaps continue till higher education.
