Published: September 2021

The study aimed at exploring the impact of information literacy on maize production and focused on a case study of small-scale farmers in Inonge village of Kanzungula District in Southern Province, Zambia. Besides the review of relevant literature, the study conducted a questionnaire-based case study on 20 small-scale farmers and conducted an in-depth interview with one agriculturalist from the Ministry of Agriculture. The analysis of the study showed that farmers need information for various purposes to enhance their agricultural activities, and they use different sources and media to access such information. Many of the farmers, however, are not well aware of modern techniques of agriculture and they seldom use such techniques for farming. Due to some problems such as high rate of illiteracy, inadequate contact with agricultural extension officers, language barrier and bad television and radio reception, farmers are not satisfied in getting agricultural information. The paper concludes that information literacy has an effect on maize production and certain recommendations for policy, practice and further research have been provided for the improvement of information literacy of the farmers in Inonge village. These include government to reconsider public agricultural policy reforms on one hand and for the local communities and their leaderships to reorganize themselves and tackle the information challenges facing them on the other.  More focused research was still needed to understand and contextualize Inonge village agricultural challenges and prospects.
Discovery Teaching about Calculating Side Lengths of Right Triangles Using Pythagoras Theorem with the Help of Geogebra Software
Authors: Nguyen Ngoc-Giang
Published: September 2021

Discovery teaching is an active teaching method that encourages learners to create their own knowledge. Students who participate in the discovery learning process will remember longer than the conventional teaching method. This teaching method is very important in the process of teaching innovation in Vietnam when changing from a teaching method that focuses on knowledge transmission to one that focuses on developing learners' capacity. Our study proposes an exploratory teaching method for calculating the side lengths of right triangles using the Pythagoras theorem with the help of GeoGebra software. By the method of empirical investigation, we surveyed 51 students in Bien Hoa city and used descriptive statistics with the help of SPSS software, the research has shown that the discovery teaching of calculating side lengths of right triangles using Pythagoras theorem with the help of GeoGebra software is needed. However, many teachers still do not fully understand the discovery teaching method. The research results also show that there are three groups of factors affecting the way of discovery teaching. First, the effort of teachers in teaching discovery is huge. Second, the time spent on discovery teaching is relatively large. Third, the current teaching environment has not yet met the requirements of discovery teaching. The findings from the research results are important for proposing a way of discovery teaching about calculating the side lengths of right triangles using Pythagoras theorem with the help of GeoGebra software.
Innovation First and Foremost: The Case of Oman's Ranking in the Global Innovation Index
Authors: Alkhanjari Almutasim
Published: September 2021

One of the most important reports that evaluate the degree of innovation in countries is the Global Innovation Index (GII). Oman's score has been exceptional from 2013, with experts anticipating it to ascend to the first 40 nations in GII; nevertheless, over the previous two years, the ranking of the country has significantly dropped to 80 in 2019 and is expected to remain to decline after being 57 in 2018. The study's objective is to determine the factors that led to the Oman decline in GII, analyze the involvement of public institutions in this drop in terms of policy change or reform, and explore the societal impact of this drop. Because of a lack of data on the subject, this exploratory, descriptive research used a combination of data collection methods, involving an interview with five specialists and a circulation of 204 survey questionnaires. To achieve uniformity and relevancy, participants were chosen based on the study's themes. This research focused on identifying the factors contributing to the sudden decline in the GII compared to prior years. Additionally, it layout a framework for key stakeholders to execute the major adjustments required to enhance performance in crucial innovation indicators. Finally, it will result in increasing professional and organizational awareness of policy instrumentation in Oman and will offer avenues for future research on this topic and governmental policies that will enhance several of the GII indicators, notwithstanding Oman's drop in ranking.

Internal control systems have been a challenge to the performance of Dairy Cooperative Societies in Kenya. Incidences of total disregard to rules and procedures, adherence to cooperative management regulations have been on the rise. The ability of the management to adhere to the internal controls systems is of importance and it’s bound to affect the financial performance of the societies. The purpose of this study was to determine influence of internal control on financial performance of Dairy Cooperative Societies. The study was restricted to Dairy Cooperative Societies licensed to operate in Meru County. . The study adopted a descriptive research design and made use of purposive sampling to generate a sample of 72 respondents. A questionnaire was utilized to collect data from the respondents. Data was analyzed and evaluated through the use of descriptive statistics; standard deviation, mean and percentages, and made use of ordinary linear regression models to generate the size of effects of independent variables on the dependent variable. Analyzed data was presented in tables and pie charts. The response rate of the administered questionnaires stood at 88.88%. This response rate was found to be sufficient for inferential statistical analysis. The coefficient of determination indicated that internal control contributed 65.7% of the variation in financial performance as explained by coefficient of determination which stood at 0.657. The p-value and regression coefficient internal control generated after running the regression model was (β= 0.232, p = 0.026). These results indicate that internal controls positively and significantly influenced the financial performance of Dairy Cooperative Societies in Meru County.

Published: September 2021

Objectives

Biological variation is defined as the variation in analytical concentration between and within individuals, and being aware of this biological variation is important for understanding disease dynamics. The aim of our study is to calculate the within-subject (CVI) and between-subject (CVG) biological variations of serum creatinine, cystatin C and beta trace protein (BTP), as well as the reference change value (RCV) and individuality indexes (II), which are used to calculate the glomerular filtration rate while evaluating kidney damage.

Methods

Blood samples were collected from 22 healthy volunteers for 10 consecutive weeks and stored at −80 °C until the day of analysis. While the analysis for serum creatinine was performed colorimetrically with the kinetic jaffe method, the nephelometric method was employed for cystatin C and BTP measurements. All analyses were carried out in a single session for each test.

Results

Analytical coefficient of variation (CVA) for serum creatinine, cystatin C and beta trace protein was 5.56, 3.48 and 5.37%, respectively. CVI and CVG: for serum creatinine: 3.31, 14.50%, respectively, for cystatin C: 3.15, 12.24%, respectively, for BTP: 9.91, 14.36%, respectively. RCV and II were calculated as 17.94%, 0.23 for serum creatinine, 13.01%, 0.26 for cystatin C, 31.24%, 0.69 for BTP, respectively.

Conclusions

According to the data obtained in our study, serum creatinine and cystatin C show high individuality, therefore we think that the use of RCV instead of reference ranges would be appropriate. Although II is found to be low for BTP, more studies are needed to support this finding.

Candidate Preference, State Context, and Voter Turnout: Comparing Non-Voters and Voters in the 2016 Presidential Election
Authors: Medenica Vladimir E. , Fowler Matthew
Published: September 2021

While much attention has been paid to understanding the drivers of support for Donald Trump, less focus has been placed on understanding the factors that led individuals to turn out and vote or stay home. This paper compares non-voters and voters in the 2016 election and explores how self-reported candidate preference prior to the election predicted turnout across three different state contexts: (1) all states, (2) closely contested states won by Trump, and (3) closely contested states won by Clinton. We find that preference for both candidates predicted turnout in the aggregate (all states) and in closely contested states won by Clinton, but only preference for Trump predicted turnout in the closely contested states won by Trump. Moreover, we find that political interest is negatively associated with preference for Clinton when examining candidate preferences among non-voters. Our analysis suggests that non-voters in the 2016 election held meaningful candidate preferences that impacted voter turnout but that state context played an important role in this relationship. This study sheds light on an understudied component of the 2016 election, the attitudes and behavior of non-voters, as well as points to the importance of incorporating contextual variation in future work on electoral behavior and voter turnout.

Published: September 2021

Glutaric acid is an attractive chemical compound which can be used for the manufacturing of polyesters, polyamides, and polyols. It can be produced by the synthesis (chemical method) and fermentation (biological method) process. Glutaric acid is presented with the lowest quantity in the fermentation broth and industrial waste streams. The separation methods of glutaric acid are difficult, costly, and non-environment friendly from fermentation broth. Reactive separation is a simple, cheapest, and environment-friendly process for the recovery of carboxylic acid. Which can be employed for the separation of glutaric acid with lower cost and environment-friendly process. In this study, response surface methodology (RSM) was used as a mathematical technique to optimize and experimental design for investigation of the reactive separation of glutaric acid from the aqueous phase. As per RSM study, 20 experiments with different independent variables such as concentration of glutaric acid, % v/v of trioctylamine, and pH for recovery of glutaric acid were performed. The optimum condition with maximum efficiency (η) 92.03% for 20% trioctylamine and pH = 3 at 0.08 mol/L of glutaric acid initial concentration were observed. The lower concentration of trioctylamine provides sufficient extraction efficiency of glutaric acid. This method can also be used for the separation from fermentation broth because a lower concentration of trioctylamine which makes this process environment-friendly. The optimization condition-defined quadratic response surface model is significant with R
2 of 0.9873. The independent variables defined the effect on the extraction efficiency of glutaric acid. This data can be used for the separation of glutaric acid from industries waste and fermentation broth.
Bar forces in pulp refiners
Authors: Kerekes R. J. , McDonald J. D.
Published: September 2021

Refiners develop pulp properties by applying forces on fibres during bar crossings. The size of these forces is critical in developing fibre properties while avoiding fibre shortening. This study has shown that bar force calculated from Specific Edge load (SEL) gives the same result as vector-based derivations of average bar force. Predicted forces agree reasonably well with ones measured by a novel piezo-electric sensor in refiner bars and forces estimated from measurements of fibre shortening.
An Enhanced Automated Particle Angularity Measurement Method
Authors: Roy N. , Vangla P. , Frost J. D. , Latha G. M.
Published: September 2021

Angularity is an important aspect of particle morphology, directly correlated to the mechanical response and strength of granular materials. Many researchers have proposed multiple direct and indirect methods such as visual charts, analytical formulas, and advanced image-based techniques for qualitative and quantitative assessment of particle angularity, but no single method has been fully successful in distinguishing all types of particles and obtaining an accurate quantitative value of angularity. Nevertheless, because of the significant importance of the parameter, researchers have been using a few generally accepted angularity quantification methods. This paper evaluates the conceptual merits and demerits of four such methods, namely, two analog methods called “roundness index” and “degree of angularity” coined by Wadell and Lees, respectively, as well as two image-based methods called “angularity using outline slope” and “gradient angularity index” proposed by Rao, Tutumluer, and Kim and Chandan et al., respectively. The latter two methods were developed for use in conjunction with the University of Illinois Aggregate Image Analyzer and the Aggregate Imaging System, respectively. A new approach for angularity quantification is proposed herein based on insights from a rigorous analysis and critical assessment of these methods. The proposed method is compared against the existing methods based on Ward’s linkage method of clustering and is shown to be superior at distinguishing between various classes of particles. The proposed approach is demonstrated to be a better measure of the sharpness of the meso-level geometrical features of importance along a particle’s outline that are the controlling parameters contributing to particle angularity, which consequently correlates to the kinematic and mechanical response of granular materials.

Published: September 2021

Aortic dissection is an aggressive and life-threatening cardiac disease that’s highly challenging in surgical operation. Bentall procedure comes with potential complications. How to manage these complications is important when it comes to improving patient outcome. In this case, we present a 41-year-old male patient with iatrogenic aortic dissection. He had aortic valve replacement and repair of an atrial septal defect in 2012. After five years, he suffered reoperation for aortic dissection. A year later, the patient was readmitted for a voluminous pulsatile mass over the anterior thorax, confirming the presence of a huge pseudoaneurysm originating from the left coronary bottom performed during the Bentall procedure. This required a third operation to repair the hemorrhagic site. Pseudoaneurysm is a common complication after the inclusion technique in the Bentall procedure. Effective hemostasis or tension-free anastomosis is important toward improving patient outcome.

PERWUJUDAN NILAI AL-BIRR WA AL-TAQWA DALAM KEPEMILIKAN
Authors: Ilmia Anisa
Published: September 2021

ABSTRACTIslamic economics is an economic system that is different from the capitalist economic system and the socialist economic system, one of which is the ownership rights. Islam recognizes the existence of human ownership, but still emphasizes that Allah SWT is the absolute owner of everything include the universe so that what humans have is only a mandate that must be obtained and utilized in accordance with Allah’s rules. Ownership is the integration of the Islamic economic system so that it contains an element of morality that will give birth to the value of the khilafah and the value of al-birr wa al-taqwa (goodness and obedience) in which both values are centered on divine value (Ilahiyah). The realization of these values in ownership has implications for the well-being and economic equalization to achieve “falah” (bliss of the world and the hereafter). Keywords : ownership, morality, value, Islamic economic, obedience

Perilaku produsen dipengaruhi oleh dua motif, yakni maksimalisasi profit dan minimalisasi biaya, untuk mencapai tujuan tersebut dibutuhkan suatu cara yang paling efektif dan efisien dengan memilih jenis sumber modal atau biaya. Perusahaan dalam pandangan Islam dapat memilih sumber modal yang tepat untuk mengoptimalkan output (produk) perusahaan, seperti qard, syirkah, mudharabah. Terdapat empat aspek dalam perdandingan sestem bagi hasil dan biaya: (1) biaya bunga yang harus dibayarkan produsen bersifat tetap, sehingga termasuk pada biaya (fixed cost), sedangkan dalam sistem bagi hasil akan mempengaruhi pada total revenue, (2) sistem profit sharing, ketika rugi kurva total revenue digambarkan dengan mulut buaya bawah, sedangkan ketika untung digambarkan dengan mulut buaya atas, berbeda halnya dengan sistem revenue sharing, kurva total revenue bergeser mendekati garis horizontal, (3) produksi dalam jumlah yang sama (Q), biaya total sistem bagi hasil selalu lebih kecil dibandingkan sitem bunga, dikarenakan bunga menjadi beban bagi produsen, karena biaya tetap  naik, maka akan meningkatkan biaya total, (4) memaksimalkan produksi tanpa ada perubahan biaya, dengan menggunakan kurva TC yaitu membandingkan biaya total sistem bunga dengan sistem bagi hasil, dari hasil analisis menunjukkan biaya yang sama, jumlah produksi yang dihasilkan sistem bagi hasil lebih efisien dibandingkan sistem bunga. Kata Kunci: Sistem Bagi Hasil, Sistem Bunga, Biaya Produksi
SUKUK AND BONDS IN INDONESIA: AN OVERVIEW
Authors: Witro Doli , Setiawan Iwan
Published: September 2021

From the early 1920s to the late 20th century, there were at least 25 financial crises globally. In 2018, the Global Islamic Finance Report reported that Indonesia has tremendous potential to develop Islamic finance. Some of the Islamic financial products that can be developed in Indonesia are bonds and sukuk. Bonds are a product of the capital market.

Response of Cireundeu Indigenous Community to Modernization and Islamic Da’wah
Authors: Abidin Yusuf Zainal
Published: September 2021

This article describes the dynamics of the indigenous people of Cireundeu in Cimahi with their specific systems in responding to the current modernization and Islamic da’wa activities. Using a qualitative approach, this article argues that the encounter of their traditions with modernization and Islamic da’wa activities which are new traditions, has made indigenous peoples syncretize through parochalization and universalization. Parochialization is carried out by adjusting outside traditional values through their symbols, while universalization is carried out by promoting their local values or practices such as food security into a broader norm. However, interactions with various other traditions have shown continuity in customary preservation and at the same time have shown discontinuity in symbolic matters, their norms, and practices as indigenous people.Artikel ini menguraikan tentang dinamika masyarakat adat Cireundeu di Cimahi dengan berbagai sistem spesifik yang dimilikinya dalam merespon arus modernisasi dan aktivitas dakwah Islam. Dengan menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif, artikel ini berargumen bahwa perjumpaan tradisi mereka dengan modernisasi dan aktivitas dakwah Islam yang merupakan tradisi-tradisi baru telah membuat masyarakat adat melakukan sinkretitasi melalui parokialisasi dan universalisasi. Parokialisasi dilakukan dengan penyesuaian nilai-nilai tradisi luar melalui simbol-simbol mereka dan universalisasi dilakukan dengan mempromosikan nilai-nilai atau praktik-praktik lokal mereka seperti ketahanan pangan menjadi norma yang lebih luas. Namun demikian, interaksi dengan berbagai tradisi lain ini telah memperlihatkan kontinuitas dalam dalam pelestarian adat dan pada saat yang sama telah pula mempelihatkan gejala diskontinuitas pada hal-hal yang bersifat simbolik, norma dan praktik mereka sebagai masyarakat adat.
