This research develops big-book literacy media and analyze the media reliability. The method was research and development, using Thiagarajan’s model design, i.e., the 4-D model. This model was composed of four phases, namely Define, Design, Develop, and Disseminate. The developed big-book literacy media was given a reliability percentage of 100% by media experts. The media, accordingly, was categorized as very reliable. It was given a reliability percentage of 92% by language experts, and as such, was considered very reliable as well. Practitioners/users gave a reliability percentage of 98%, classifying the media as very reliable. By accumulating the reliability percentages given by media experts, language experts, and practitioners/users, we could infer that the developed media had a mean reliability percentage of 96.7%, predicating it as a very reliable one. Based on the results of validation and school test, we could declare that the developed big-book literacy media was very reliable to use in a learning process at elementary schools. Grounded on the test using two data collection techniques, which were observation and interviews with teachers and students as users in this test, we could sum up that the developed big-book literacy media was reliable to use in a learning process.

Published: January 2024

The purpose of this study was to investigate on an assessment of the effectiveness of the preventive maintenance policy in enhancing quality assurance in education provision: a case of selected schools in Chibombo district. The study employed a mixed paradigm and descriptive survey design that sampled DEBS officials, Head teachers, PMS coordinators, teachers and pupils. Data was obtained from respondents by means of interviews, questionnaires and observation checklist. The target population was 1280 respondents while the sample size was 128 respondents. Frequency, percentages, tables, graphs and pie-charts were used to analyze the quantitative and qualitative data obtained. Data was then analyzed manually in some cases and also, a combination of software MS Access and MS Excel. According to the findings, the study found that the activities which was in place was general cleaning one day per week. The study also found that discontinuity was the biggest challenge administrators experienced, and that many projects were abandoned. Unfortunately, the motto that "prevention is better than cure" was not evident among teachers and learners. The conclusion of this study with respect to the application of ethical theories to the findings is that the inner ethical motivation required for adequate care of property in teachers and learners is missing. The study therefore recommended that there is a need for greater emphasis to be placed on character formation in education as is specified in the Zambian Document Educating Our Future. Also, the spirit of the PMS policy directives needs to be more greatly emphasized in order to motivate action, rather than the more exclusive legal dimension which does not suffice to ensure the implementation of the policy.
Utilizing remote sensing data and ArcGIS for advanced computational analysis in land surface temperature modeling and land use property characterization
Authors: S M Mustaquim
Published: January 2024

This paper provides a summary of the remote sensing analysis conducted, which utilized satellite images to model changes in land cover and their influence on Land Surface Temperature (LST). The primary determinant of surface overheating is identified as vegetation, with water bodies playing a significant role in LST regulation. Conversely, areas with bare soil and built-up infrastructure contribute to elevated LST levels. Therefore, it emphasizes the importance of implementing measures like urban forestry, creating water bodies, preserving existing ponds, and minimizing construction activities to prevent further increases in LST and mitigate ecological damage. Even in cases where tree planting isn't feasible, introducing shrub-type vegetation in barren urban areas is recommended as an effective means to resist soil heat buildup. Consequently, increasing vegetation cover is highlighted as a crucial factor in controlling LST within both urban and non-urban environments.

Published: January 2024

The study investigated the strategic impact of knowledge entrepreneurship on Foreign Direct investment in Nigeria. This study examined the rate of foreign Direct Investment (FDI) in Nigeria because the country has witnessed massive downward sliding of foreign direct investment in recent times. To solve this problem, this study is aimed at ascertaining the nature of impact Knowledge entrepreneurship has on foreign direct investment. The study also investigated the cause of the massive downward sliding of foreign direct investment in Nigeria. This study adopted the survey design. Simple random sampling technique was used in selecting the 200 staff of selected foreign direct investment firms in Nigeria. Findings revealed that there is a positive and significant relationship between knowledge entrepreneurship and Foreign Direct investment in Nigeria. This means that the knowledge of Foreign Direct Investment opportunity in another country will accelerate the action of the entrepreneur in taking advantage of the opportunity to make profit in that country. This is in tandem with Knowledge Spillover Theory of Entrepreneurship. Knowledge entrepreneurship has the potency to attract foreign direct investment hence the positive and significant correlation. The study also found that knowledge entrepreneurship has resulted in technological transfer to Nigeria and employment generation as well as increased profitability and market share of the FDI operating in Nigeria.The study concludes that knowledge entrepreneurship is a viable business model in Nigeria and that the reason for the massive and downward sliding of Foreign Direct Investment in Nigeria currently is as a result of the national challenges of high insecurity and exchange rate volatility.

Authors: Yunita Lestari Indrianto  , Evan Nugroho  , Bartolomeus Alvin Tjandra  , Whenny Aphrilia Pramusinta  , Mangkubumi Putra Wijaya
Published: January 2024

Introduction: Prostate cancer, the primary contributor to cancer-related fatalities in Western countries, predominantly impacts individuals between the ages of 45 and 60. The World Health Organization (WHO) has documented 1,414,259 new cases worldwide. Diagnosis methods include prostate biopsy, PSA testing, and MRI, with risk factors such as age, weight, race, and family history contributing to the varied epidemiology of the disease. Treatment alternatives such as surgery and radiation therapy come with notable side effects, prompting ongoing research into alternatives like prostate artery embolization (PAE) for benign prostatic obstruction. However, the role of PAE in patients with prostate cancer remains uncertain. Aim: The purpose of this systematic review is to determine the efficacy of Prostatic Artery Embolization as one of the palliative management strategies for clinical outcomes in prostate cancer. Method: We searched for English-language full-text literature from Pubmed, Cochrane, Wiley Library, Proquest, SpringerLink, and ScienceDirect databases from January 2013 to Desember 2023. Based on the 1442 journals identified in this study, the number of evaluated articles is 6. Results: In six studies, PAE induces tissue ischemia through femoral artery embolization, offering promise for localized prostate cancer treatment. Administered under local anesthesia, PAE has shorter hospital stays and is well-tolerated compared to TURP. After PAE treatment, significant IPSS reduction occurred, with improved outcomes reported at 1 and 6 months. Histopathology showed necrotic zones, but viable cancer cells persisted. PAE is a valuable adjunctive therapy for reducing organ-at-risk doses in exclusive prostate radiation therapy. Conclusion: PAE is a minimally invasive treatment for LUTS related to BPH and its potential in managing PCa. PAE, utilizing femoral artery occlusion, shows significant short and medium-term reductions in IPSS. While there's notable success in PCa management and reduced radiation doses, further research is essential for a comprehensive understanding of PAE's efficacy in localized PCa treatment.

This comprehensive literature review explores the intricate relationship between air pollution and cardiovascular diseases, emphasizing the global significance of this environmental concern. The study delves into key air pollutants, including Particulate Matter (PM), Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2), Ozone (O3), and Sulfur Dioxide (SO2), revealing their associations with cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. The detrimental effects involve systemic inflammation, oxidative stress, endothelial dysfunction, and atherosclerosis. The review meticulously analyzes epidemiological studies, such as the UK Biobank study, linking long-term exposure to ambient air pollution, specifically PM2.5, PM10, NO2, and NOx, with increased risks of all-cause and cardiovascular mortality. Specific populations, characterized as susceptible or vulnerable, are identified, including adults over 60 and individuals with pre-existing health conditions. Studies examining genetic variations, blood pressure changes, and meteorological variables contribute to understanding individual susceptibility. The review highlights the role of air pollution in influencing sleep patterns, physical activity, and temperature-related cardiovascular strain. Furthermore, it emphasizes the importance of recognizing air pollution as a modifiable risk factor, providing evidence of its association with cardiovascular risk factors and Dyslipidemia. The impact of air pollution on diverse cardiovascular outcomes, including heart failure, stroke, and ischemic heart disease, is discussed. The review underscores the urgent need for public health interventions and policy recommendations to mitigate air pollution's adverse effects. Recognizing air pollution as a significant risk factor for cardiovascular diseases, the study advocates for proactive measures to reduce pollution, promoting cardiovascular health and creating a cleaner environment for future generations.

Conservation agriculture is one of the innovative techniques that has proven to be successful in terms of decreasing effort, time, and expenses. The current study used two key criteria to prove some relevant findings for Conservation agriculture in order to test the results of its success, they are the bulk density (which measures soil compaction, de-oxidation and a lack of ventilation) as well as the percentage of soil organic matter. Four regions have been selected for different periods of adoption of conservation agriculture (2, 5, 10) years and other area is a unplowed fallow soil for comparison. The results revealed a great superiority for all conservative agriculture regions in terms of organic matter percentage and soil compaction. Also, the results also indicated that the spectral signatures of the areas that have been used for long-term the conservation agriculture are less than those of fallow soil due the effect of organic matter. This is an encouragement to use this technique of agriculture, where the soil surface appears to be unaffected by the agricultural machines.

Morphometric and landscape factors influencing the precipitation and temperature fields in the Western regions of Ukraine
Authors: Mkrtchian Alexander , Shuber Pavlo
Published: January 2024

The paper deals with the analysis of the influences of terrain morphometric parameters on the spatial distribution of temperature regime and precipitation amounts in the Western regions of Ukraine. Among the terrain morphometric parameters that presumably influence the distribution of precipitation and temperatures, the absolute elevation, the surface aspect factor and the vertical dissection index have been considered. The latter two were calculated by the respective focal operators applied to DEM.
As to the precipitation amounts, the most strongly influencing factors have been the vertical dissection index, the surface aspect factor and the absolute elevation. The absolute elevation was influencing the most strongly when averaged in the 7 km moving window, while the optimal size of the moving window for the vertical dissection index has been 10 km, and 50–70 km for the aspect factor. The largest precipitation amounts are observed on north-western macroslopes, the smallest –on south-eastern ones. The multiple correlation coefficient observed was above 0.98, while the coefficient of partial correlation for the vertical dissection index was above 0.9. When only weather station located in the plains were considered separately from those in the mountains, this relationship nearly disappeared. Thereby the distribution of precipitation is mostly influenced by high-scale terrain dissection, characteristic of mountainous areas.
Average monthly air temperatures, however, have shown the strongest relationship with the absolute elevation, while the vertical dissection index is having some impact, and the impact of the surface aspect factor being rather week. The influence of elevation on average monthly temperature appeared to be the strongest in summer and the weakest – in winter, probably because of the frequent development of temperature inversions. Vertical temperature gradient appeared to be lower in months when the cyclonic type of atmospheric circulation prevailed. Under the prevailing anticyclonic weather types eastern slopes were somewhat warmer than the western ones, under the prevailing cyclonic weather types – other way round.
It was shown that the terrain morphometric parameters can serve as good predictors of the temperature regime and precipitation amounts and as such can be used for the purpose of the spatial interpolation of weather stations data to obtain spatially distributed data.
Key words: precipitation, air temperature, morphometric parameters, multiple regression.
Morphometric analysis of landforms in the vicinity of the Palaeolithic site Ihrovytsia I in Podillia and prospects for the protection
Authors: Shevtsova Anastasiia
Published: January 2024

The landforms have always had a significant impact, both on the formation of ancient settlements and on the conditions for further preservation of natural and social monuments. The study of morphometric characteristics of the landforms is one of the key parts of a comprehensive study of such cultural heritage objects as Palaeolithic sites. The purpose of this article is to analyze the main morphometric characteristics of the landforms of the vicinity of Middle Palaeolithic site Ihrovytsia I in Podillia, which belongs to the main Palaeolithic sites of the Ternopil centre, as well as the creation and presentation of protection documentation (passport). Certification is a mandatory measure that contributes to the preservation of archaeological sites, including Palaeolithic sites. The passport contains all the necessary information about the history, main characteristics, preservation conditions, as well as the condition of the monument. Such passports allow the persons and agencies responsible for the preservation and protection of cultural heritage to quickly and in sufficient detail get acquainted with the condition of the objects in order to develop an effective action plan for their reconstruction and preservation. The passport is developed for the Ihrovytsia I as a complex monument of nature and society, taking into account the most important criteria for the organization of the protection regime: the type of object, scientific value, accessibility for visiting and inspection, state of preservation, recommendations for use, etc. The main problems of protection of the Palaeolithic site Ihrovytsia I are related to the fact that: the Palaeolithic site Ihrovytsia I, like some other sites of the Ternopil Palaeolithic group, is not included in the list of cultural heritage monuments; so far no certification of the Palaeolithic site has been carried out, no information stands and signs have been installed; the proper mode of use of the monument, the territory adjacent to it is not established; a zone of protection of the Palaeolithic site as a valuable archaeological territory has not been created, no control of economic activity is carried out, which may negatively affect the state of preservation of the monument.
Key words: Palaeolithic site Ihrovytsia I; Ternopil Palaeolithic region; Podillia; morphometric analysis of landforms; geoinformation systems; certification of objects of heritage.

Authors: Hipni Mohammad
Published: January 2024

Applying Islamic law within the framework of social culture is never complete for research. Certain social entities understand Islamic law, originating from revelation to produce unique legal products. Roma Toah inheritance in Madurese society is a division of inheritance intended for all heirs without being based on the individual principle as in Islamic inheritance law in general. This study aims to understand the construction of social, cultural, and religious inheritance of Roma Toah in the people of West Madura, who are known to be firm in upholding their religious teachings. This study uses a qualitative method approach using a socio-legal approach. This study uses social construction analysis so that the meaning of the inheritance of Roma Toah can be well understood. This research resulted in the following findings; first, the legacy of Roma Toah survives based on the local wisdom of the Madurese community, based on two aspects that align with Islamic values; maintaining family ties intact and family economic resilience. Second, by using social construction analysis based on three phases; externalization, objectification, and internalization, the Roma Toah inheritance is built on a harmonious blend of culture, social, and religion through the legitimacy of traditionalist Madurese Ulama so that it is considered a system that does not conflict with Islamic values in maintaining family and economic integrity.

Authors: Fadhilah Defi Rahmi , Salma Salma , Elfia Elfia , Mawaddah Arini Alfa
Published: January 2024

This study delves into post-divorce wives' rights, particularly examining the impact of Jurimetrics. Divorce rulings often inadequately support these rights. The Talu Religious Court, part of the Padang High Religious Court, employs Jurimetrics due to disputes over divorce-related issues. Through normative legal research and content analysis, it's evident that Jurimetrics-influenced decisions notably enhance wives' rights compared to non-Jurimetrics rulings. These decisions prioritize fairness by considering factors like minimum wage, husband's income, and marriage duration. Notably, the application of Jurimetrics in divorce proceedings consistently leads to more equitable and just outcomes for wives, presenting a systematic and fair approach rooted in principles of fairness and justice. Overall, employing Jurimetrics significantly bolsters the protection of post-divorce wives' rights, providing a methodological framework founded on fairness and equity within divorce adjudications.
