Authors: Sarie Fatma , Mohammad Wily , Jamin Nunung Suryana , Ramlan Winarto
Published: February 2024

This study looks into the complex factors that affect dairy producers in South Bangka's use of agricultural technology. Structural Equation Modeling-Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS) was used to examine the correlations between farmers' knowledge, motivational factors, technology adoption, and demographic characteristics using a sample of 112 farmers. The results highlight the importance of education and adaptability to change by showing a strong positive correlation between demographic characteristics (age, education) and technological adoption. Farmers' knowledge was found to be a crucial element; a substantial positive association suggests that adoption is positively influenced by a deeper understanding of agricultural technologies. Economic incentives and perceived benefits were found to have significant positive connections with technology adoption, indicating the role that perceived benefits play in encouraging the acceptance of new ideas. The model's significant explanatory and predictive ability was validated by the SEM-PLS study, offering a thorough framework for comprehending and improving South Bangka's adoption of technology. The findings highlight the need of a comprehensive strategy that takes into account farmers' goals, experiences, and degree of knowledge in order to promote the adoption of sustainable technologies.

High School Interrupted: A Case Study of Postsecondary Pathways and College Choices Following the Covid-19 Pandemic
Authors:   , Cook Robert
Published: February 2024

This instrumental case study explored how the COVID-19 pandemic influenced post-secondary pathways and college choices of participants in an Upward Bound Program. In the aftermath of the pandemic, community college enrollment was projected to increase, instead two-year institutions experienced significant declines. Prevailing assumptions about college enrollment may not be accurate, and existing college decision models do not account for the effects of a worldwide pandemic. The study was guided by the Iloh model of college going decisions and trajectories, and the college-conocimiento framework. The findings suggested students’ academic engagement and mental health declined during the pandemic. This in turn impacted their resolve to attend college, and influenced the factors they considered when selecting a college. Additionally, the findings suggested students relied on Upward Bound as their primary postsecondary planning resource.

Relationship between Foreign Exchange Reserves and Economic Growth in Tanzania: Application of Wald Granger-Causality Test
Authors: Jacob Richard , Magungu Angel
Published: February 2024

The study investigates the causal relationship between foreign exchange reserves and economic growth in Tanzania from 1990-2021. The study employed the Wald Granger-Causality Test to examine the causal relationship between variables. The results from the Wald Granger-Causality- Test revealed the unidirectional causal effect of economic growth on foreign exchange reserves. This implies that the value of economic growth can be used to predict the future value of foreign exchange reserves in Tanzania in the short and long run. In contrast, foreign exchange reserves cannot be used to predict the economic growth movement. Furthermore, findings indicated that foreign exchange reserves positively affect economic growth in the long run, implying that increasing foreign exchange reserves increases financial growth. Due to these findings, it can be concluded that foreign exchange reserves act as an integral catalyst for sustainable development in a country. Improving monetary policies and reserve management strategies would strike a balance between holding reserves and managing external debt. While reserves can be used to service debt and enhance creditworthiness, excessive reliance on reserves for debt servicing may deplete the buffer needed for crisis management. Policymakers must consider the country's specific circumstances and continually assess and adapt strategies to promote sustainable economic growth.
Estimations of Multidimensional Energy Poverty in Tanzania
Authors: Mhagama Geofrey
Published: February 2024

This study assesses the level of multidimensional energy poverty in Tanzania. The study uses descriptive and inferential statistics based on data from the 2015-2016 Tanzania Demographic and Health Surveys (DHS), as they provide the most comprehensive datasets for this analysis. The analysis revealed that 74.1% of households were in rural areas, while the remaining 25.9% were in urban areas. Moreover, the study found that 80.6% of household heads were considered multidimensionally energy-poor. For inferential statistics, the Alkire-Foster estimates found that 81.2% of households in Tanzania were multidimensionally energy-poor, with higher rates of energy poverty in rural areas (94.2%) and among female-headed households (84.0%). Moreover, the findings show that the dimension of modern fuel contributes the most to the Multidimensional Energy Poverty Index (MEPI) (43.6%) compared to the asset (17.9%) and education (38.5%) dimensions. The study recommends that Tanzania invest in expanding access to modern cooking fuels and electricity, improving asset ownership, and enhancing educational opportunities to address multidimensional energy poverty. We recommend that the government emphasize and focus on both renewable energy and energy efficiency development in the country by implementing energy initiatives based on National Energy Policy 2015 to increase access to modern energy services and share renewable energies in the electricity generation mix to enhance availability, reliability, and security of supply.

Authors: Nyamboga Hebron , James Mgale Yohana , Rwela Tumaini , Mpasa Oscar
Published: February 2024

Avocado farming has grown into a significant agricultural industry in the Rungwe District, significantly contributing to the local economy. Improving market access for avocado farmers is essential to raising rural incomes and enhancing their standard of living. This paper aims to determine the most efficient avocado marketing channels and analyse the factors affecting marketing channel choices by avocado farmers in the Rungwe District. The study involved 196 smallholder avocado farmers and key informants. Data were collected through interviews, questionnaire surveys, and documentary reviews. Findings showed that the main avocado marketing channels used by farmers in the Rungwe District were categorized into brokers (90.3%) and local traders (9.7%). The local traders’ marketing channel was more efficient, with a price spread (per kg) of TZS 400 and a farmer’s share in consumers’ price of 75%. In comparison, the brokers’ marketing channel had a price spread of TZS 1300 and a farmer’s share in the consumer’s price of 48%, though it had a higher net price received by farmers (TZS 1200) than local traders (TZS 500). Findings from the multiple binary regression analysis indicated that the education level of the household head, farming experience, household size, farm size, access to market information, price, quantity of avocado purchased, mode of payment, and access to extension services had a significant influence on the choice of marketing channel. The findings recommend expanding avocado marketing channels and strengthening avocado farmers’ access to market information, extension, and credit services.

Authors:   Directorate of Information and Technology, National Open University of Nigeria, C. U Ezeanya , E. M Onyeji , I. A Ejimofor ,   Department of Computer Engineering, Madona University
Published: February 2024

Improving student performance in an academic pursuit is one of the key concerns of institutions especially open and distance learning institutions where learners are separated from the institution by geographical region. The current observation of low-quality graduates from colleges and universities, particularly in open and distance learning, can be attributed to the lack of mechanisms that could help administrators at universities to forecast the academic achievement of the concerned students in the coming years. The goal of data mining in education is to create models, algorithms, and techniques for analyzing information gathered from learning environments to comprehend and enhance the learning process. The goal of this research is to identify patterns in the measures of academic achievement and how they relate to admission, high school, and personal information about the students. These findings can serve as a solid basis for customizing and enhancing the curriculum for open and distance learning to better suit the needs of individual students. Also, the research work identified factors that had a crucial influence on overall students’ performance. Hybridizing Naïve Bayes and K-Nearest Neighbor were used as Classifiers to develop a model for predicting the performance of students. The new model which is the hybridized model (combined Naïve Bayes and K-Nearest Neighbor) predicts better results than individual Naïve Bayes and K-Nearest Neighbor algorithms which shown itself as the best prediction and classification model.
Can the Russian Constitution Still Strike Back?
Authors: Bobrinsky Nikolai
Published: February 2024

Three decades after the adoption of the Russian Constitution, we must admit that it has not become an effective safeguard against the usurpation of power and state terror. The conditions under which the Russian Constitution could have served as a secure barrier to the revival of authoritarianism and state terror is a profound question warranting a separate discussion. I suggest that we should look a few steps ahead and imagine an optimistic scenario of a new attempt to establish democracy and rule of law in Russia – regardless of how improbable such a scenario may seem at present. One of the priorities of such an attempt will be to overcome impunity for the perpetrators of crimes of the Putin regime.
Das Bundeskriminalamt als überdimsensionierte Plattformpolizei

Das von der Bundesregierung vorgeschlagene Digitale-Dienste-Gesetz (DDG-E) soll im Bundestag bis zum März abschließend verhandelt werden und dann schon im April in Kraft treten. Ein wichtiger Aspekt des Gesetzentwurfs erhält bisher zu wenig Aufmerksamkeit: Was genau soll eigentlich das Bundeskriminalamt (BKA) nach § 13 DDG-E - der nationalen „Begleitgesetzgebung” zu Art. 18 Digital Services Act (DSA) - machen? Ist diese Rolle im gegenwärtigen Entwurf hinreichend abgesichert? Und bedarf es dafür wirklich - wie geplant - 450 Stellen?

O objetivo deste artigo é analisar os registros de representação semiótica presentes em exercícios que tratam da noção de equação em livros didáticos de matemática do terceiro ciclo do ensino fundamental no Haiti. A abordagem teórica adotada foi a teoria dos registros de representação semiótica de Duval, que nos permitiu coletar, analisar e interpretar dados relevantes para compreender melhor a complexa dinâmica entre a língua natural, a representação gráfica, linguagem simbólica. A abordagem metodológica é qualitativa, documental, do tipo estudo de caso. A análise dos livros mostra que o registro algébrico predomina no livro da 8ª série (54,29% dos exercícios), enquanto o registro da linguagem natural está mais presente no livro da 9ª série (73,28%). Notamos uma ausência de representação gráfica, limitando a compreensão das relações matemáticas e isso pode dificultar a compreensão de conceitos abstratos.

Murabahah financing is one type used in the Islamic financial system. A murabahah contract is a sale and purchase contract at a price disclosed and acknowledged by both parties since the beginning of the transaction. In murabahah contract financing, the bank or financial institution as the financing party will buy the goods the customer needs and resell them to the customer at a price previously disclosed. The research aims to determine how the murabahah contract financing is implemented at the SRB. The research method used by the author in this study is descriptive analysis with a qualitative research approach. The study results show the implementation of murabahah financing at PT.BPRS HikmahWawaah starts with financing applications, collecting the necessary files, conducting surveys to check prospective customers, and PT.BPRS HikmahWawaah, in deciding whether to provide financing to prospective customers, must go through a meeting financing committee to see whether the prospective customer can pay off his obligations. In assessing the financing, BPRS Hikmah Wahyuah uses the 5 C principles: character, capacity, capital, collateral, and economic conditions.

Este artigo pretende investigar a construção da identidade profissional docente no Brasil a partir da análise dos períodos históricos, desde o colonial (época do desenvolvimento da educação pelos jesuítas e na sequência, a expulsão deles por Marquês de Pombal e suas respectivas Reformas na Educação), passando pelo Império brasileiro e a criação das Escolas Normais, e na República, com as Reformas no Ensino. Recorremos à revisão bibliográfica como método de análise e discussão, com base nos seguintes autores: Saviani (2008); Negrão (2012); Brzezinski (1996); Nóvoa (1995); Maciel e Neto (2006); Neves (2007); Sucupira (2001); Tanuri (2000); Tardif (2014). O resultado a que se chega é a constatação de que a docência é uma profissão que está em constante construção.

Technological Innovation has become an indispensable tool for organizations to gain competitive advantage, increase performance, venture into new markets and survive in such a competitive atmosphere. A plethora of research has found that technological innovation is a critical factor that improves organizational performance. The study focused on investigating the effects of technological innovation on the performance of SMEs in the manufacturing industry. The study objectives were to establish the factors that influence technological innovativeness among manufacturing SMEs in Zimbabwe, determine the effect of product innovation on the performance of manufacturing SMEs, to ascertain the effect of process innovation on the performance of manufacturing SMEs in Zimbabwe and to establish the challenges faced by SMEs in the manufacturing sector adopting technological innovation in Zimbabwe. A quantitative research approach was adopted. The researcher used simple random sampling in this study and every member in the sample size has an equal opportunity to be selected. A total sample size of 66 respondents was selected randomly. A structured questionnaire was distributed to respondents and the response rate was approximately 76%. Data was processed on excel which was later uploaded on the SPSS and SmartPLS version 3.2.1 softwares. Cronbach Alpha of 0.886 was obtained and this indicated the strong reliability and validity of the study results. Composite and Average variance extracted was also used to assessed the validity of the study. It was discovered that experienced human capital, leadership, access to funding, competition, and organisation mission and culture are important in influencing innovation in SMEs. In addition, the study revealed that product and process innovation had an impact on manufacturing SMEs’ organizational performance that was statistically significant. It emerged that product and process innovation improves a number of financial performance indicators for a business, including sales growth, market expansion, rising customer happiness, and rising profit margins. Therefore, in line with the findings, the study recommends that the government must develop and implement a wide range of innovation policies that encourage best practices and support company growth and should support the creation and ongoing operation of innovative businesses through partnerships. Future studies should expand the study’s scope and sample size and other factors related to product and process innovations. In addition, future research has to take into account the creation of national and regional government policies that encourage innovation among SMEs.

Butter product is one of most important Dairy products in the livestock production and referred as livelihood base that ignites economy of the farming communities in Kedidagamela districts and Kembata Tembaro zones of Southern Ethiopia. But the level of value addition in butter and its determinants and optimal value addition channel was not identified and updated. Hence, the study done based on targets of gathering update information to examine factors affecting butter supply in the value chain and indicate optimal value addition channel for the districts. The study done at Kedidagamela districts of Kembata Tembaro zone and used cross sectional data from household survey of 101 households. The study applied multiple linear regression model and descriptive statistics for analysis. The study finding indicated that level of butter supply defined as function of agricultural and off-farm income earned, age of respondents, area of improved forage at farm land, number of cow owned and feeding and medication costs of dairy cow. The study identified the optimal value chain for producer that provokes the household to adopt value addition practise in making different products rather than selling fresh milks for consumers. The study points out that butter supply to market can be enhanced through promotion of improved forage cultivation, enabling producers to earn income from agricultural and none agricultural activities, reducing feeding and medication cost of cow rearing, owing more cows and obtain experience in production. The level of value added in dairy products and income of producers can be optimized in adopting value addition practices of daily products that experienced by more than two third households in the districts.
A NOVEL CELL BY CELL ARTIFICIAL NEURAL NETWORKS APPROACH FOR PREDICTING THE TEMPERATURE OF STEADY STATE, INCOMPRESSIBLE, LAMINAR FLOWS

A cell-by-cell artificial neural network approach is used to predict the temperature field of steady-state, incompressible, laminar flows in a two-dimensional computational domain. The temperature field is characterized by the initial flow velocity, fluid temperature and the temperature of the wall boundaries. Two types of neural network architectures are developed in this research, namely cascade-forward and feedforward models. Both models are trained using Levenberg-Marquardt and Bayesian regularization backpropagation algorithms. The training data for the models are obtained by solving the Navier-Stokes equations for steady-state, incompressible, heat conducting laminar flow in two-dimensional domain using commercial ANSYS Fluent software. The results show that the predicted values produced by the ANN models are in good agreement with the CFD simulation data. Even though the introduction of artificial neural networks at the cell level increases the complexity of the training process, this drawback is compensated by the increase in flexibility (generality) of the models. More importantly, the results show that the cell-by-cell artificial neural network approach is capable of providing an accurate prediction of the temperature field for the fluid flow investigated in this research, as indicated by the statistical indices used to evaluate the performance of prediction models. The feedforward ANN model trained using the Bayesian regularization backpropagation algorithm gives the most accurate predictions among all models.
