Abstract
Mathematics education serves as a critical foundation for fostering analytical thinking, problem-solving skills, and innovation in an increasingly interconnected world. This study conducts a comparative analysis of mathematics curriculum frameworks in six countries renowned for their educational excellence: Finland, Singapore, Japan, South Korea, Canada, and the United States. Using a qualitative research design and document analysis, the study examines the philosophical underpinnings, content structure, pedagogical approaches, and assessment practices of these frameworks.

Findings reveal diverse educational philosophies shaped by cultural, social, and economic contexts. Finland emphasizes holistic, student-centered learning; Singapore prioritizes mastery through the Concrete-Pictorial-Abstract approach; Japan focuses on collaborative problem-solving; South Korea adopts a rigorous, exam-oriented system; Canada promotes inquiry-based and flexible provincial curricula; and the United States ensures consistency through the Common Core Standards.

The study highlights best practices such as Finland’s emphasis on equity, Singapore’s mastery learning model, and Japan’s collaborative methods, while also identifying challenges in exam-driven systems like South Korea. The research underscores the need for adaptable curriculum frameworks, especially in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, to ensure equitable access to quality education and effective integration of technology.

This comparative analysis provides actionable insights for enhancing mathematics education worldwide and lays the groundwork for future studies on integrating global best practices into localized educational contexts.
Women Empowerment- A Retrospect & Prospect Study
Authors: - Dr. Poornima Yerramilli
Published: January 2025

“Women Empowerment”, as a movement has been in existence since the dawn of history. Half of the population of the world has been discriminated and ill treated as the “Second sex”. The pioneers of the Feminist Movement, Mary Wollstone Craft, Charles Fourier, Simon de Beauvoir and their followers Raja Ram Mohan Roy, Mahatma Gandhi, Sarojini Naidu, Savithri Bai Pule and many other kind hearted persons have kept the torch of the woman empowerment burning.
But women have to go many miles to reach their destination of gender equality. Starting with man, the hunter, the lives of men have been taken to represent those of humans overall. There is only silence about the data of women’s achievements who comprise the other half of humanity. There is little about the achievements about the women as the data available is mostly about men, by men, and for men and the world has been designed for the advantage of men. If we look at the data available about this, the data bias is evident in every sphere of human activity.
As it is difficult to eradicate the evils perpetrated by men against the women, women should learn to wait and strive hard to fight for equality with men. The Government has come forward to help women in a number of ways, but even that Government which is dominated by men has been not entirely successful in putting an end to gender inequality. A bewildered and horrified humanity looks on helplessly at the male sponsored State enforced slavery of women in Afghanistan. Meanwhile women should start learning new techniques, to rise in this male dominated would by conquering their shyness and softness. They should learn to postpone the display of their goodness and selflessness and start working for their promotion by mastering the skills needed to outshine men. Men also should sincerely work against the discrimination of women instead of mutely glorifying them.

Homes for Tomorrow: The People-First Path to Sustainable Design
Authors: - Sanjeev Duseja
Published: January 2025

Sustainable design is about creating products, spaces, and systems that respect our planet while improving the quality of life for everyone. At its heart, it’s about finding smarter, more thoughtful ways to live and work without exhausting the earth’s resources.

Key elements of sustainable design include:

Energy Efficiency: Using less energy doesn’t mean sacrificing comfort. Designs incorporate renewable energy, like solar power, and clever innovations, like smart appliances and energy-efficient lighting, to keep spaces functional and inviting.

Resource Optimization: Sustainable design embraces a “waste-not” mindset, making the most of what we have. By reusing materials, recycling, and designing with durability in mind, we create systems that last and reduce our environmental footprint.

Thoughtful Material Choices: The materials we choose tell a story. By opting for non-toxic, locally sourced, or renewable materials, we craft spaces and products that are healthier for both people and the planet.

Water Conservation: Water is life, and sustainable design respects that by incorporating solutions like rainwater harvesting, water-efficient fixtures, and systems to recycle and reuse water wherever possible.

Community and Equity: True sustainability considers people. It means designing spaces and products that are accessible, inclusive, and supportive of diverse needs while building stronger, more connected communities.

Sustainable design isn’t just about solving problems—it’s about creating opportunities to live better, more connected, and more harmonious lives. By thinking creatively and responsibly, we can shape a future that’s kinder to our planet and better for everyone.

Published: January 2025

This research paper explores the economic thoughts of Dr Bhimrao Ambedkar, Mahatma Gandhi, and Karl Marx, focusing on their visions of equality and justice. Dr Ambedkar advocated for state socialism and emphasised non-violence, democracy, and technological progress to uplift marginalised communities. Gandhi proposed the principle of trusteeship and promoted moral and spiritual development, and urged the wealthy to act responsibly for the welfare of society. Marx, on the other hand, emphasised the revolutionary class struggle to eliminate capitalism and establish a classless society. While Marx relied on conflict and materialism, Ambedkar and Gandhi prioritised social reform and non-violent methods. This study highlights how the ideas of Ambedkar and Gandhi provide solutions to contemporary socio-economic issues, offering sustainable, inclusive, and humanistic alternatives to the radical ideology of Marx.
Reflecting Aquatic Life and Ecology in Literature: A Study of Animal Dreams
Authors: - Rojer J , - Dr. V. L. Jayapaul
Published: January 2025

Abstract
Water is the source of all living beings and is necessary for the existence of both biotic and abiotic factors. It connects the whole ecosystem and is a foundation for the welfare of society. If anything harms the water bodies, it affects the whole of humanity. More than 70% of the earth’s surface is surrounded by water so paying adequate attention to the water bodies like rivers, oceans, streams, and lakes is required to be an ecologically conscious person. Showing proper concern for the environment is necessary for every individual. The American novelist, political activist, and biologist Barbara Kingsolver’s works centre on ecological issues which create consciousness among the readers. Her novel Animal Dreams is one such novel that significantly highlights the issues of pollution in the river Grace made by the Black Mountain Mining Company. Degradation and exploitation of the natural world are projected by Kingsolver in the novel. When the major water source of the people is being contaminated by the mining company, the characters in the novel start protesting against the company to safeguard the river Grace, which is their evidence for fertility. This paper aims to study the importance of the preservation of waterbodies to have an appropriate climate, food, economy, and oxygen in the light of Barbara Kingsolver’s Animal Dreams.
A Feminist Perspective of Kantian Justice
Authors: - Dr. Arpita Basak
Published: January 2025

This essay expands on Immanuel Kant’s approach to justice theory. The primary features of the method are closely related to Kant’s ethical philosophy. The foundation of his moral philosophy is the Supreme Principle of Categorical Imperative, sometimes referred to as a Principle of Universalizability. Discussions of various formulations of the categorical imperative provide us a variety of concepts, such as duty, freedom, and right. In ‘The Metaphysics of Morals’, Kant makes a distinction between two crucial ideas that are central to his Moral and Political Philosophy: the notion of virtue and the doctrine of right. The word “right”, as used by Kant, suggests a set of laws. In the same way, he employs the word “justice”. According to him, the idea of justice is independent of a person's feelings, aspirations, or inclinations; therefore, the application of the laws of justice is not dependent on the good intentions of an individual. In actuality, human legislation addresses it. He places a strong emphasis on autonomy and reason as the qualities that distinguish moral beings and political ideas. He distinguishes between sensation and reason, and he denies the latter any role in the development of moral principles. The feminist perspective is brought into foreground by this method.

The Role of Social Media Sentiment in Predicting Stock Returns: An Econometric and Text Analytics Approach
Authors: - Rajmeet Singh
Published: January 2025

This study investigates the role of social media sentiment as a predictor for stock returns, employing an econometric and text analytics approach. As social media platforms have proliferated, they have transformed into significant sources of real-time sentiment that can influence market behavior. Traditional stock prediction models primarily rely on historical data and financial metrics, often overlooking the impact of public sentiment expressed on platforms such as Twitter and Reddit. This research addresses the gap by exploring how social media sentiment can augment existing financial indicators to enhance predictive accuracy. Utilizing econometric models alongside sentiment analysis techniques, the study identifies key sentiment indicators and tests their correlation with stock returns. The findings suggest that integrating social media sentiment into financial analysis not only provides actionable insights for traders but also refines long-term investment strategies for institutional investors. By demonstrating the incremental value of this alternative data source, this research contributes to the evolving landscape of financial modeling in the digital age.
Iqbal’s Critique of Western Conception of Time: A Philosophical Analysis
Authors: - Shaista Akhter
Published: January 2025

This manuscript investigates Allama Iqbal’s astute critique on materialism and its concomitant mechanistic worldview, which interprets the cosmos as a fixed and immutable entity. This paradigm has been progressively undermined and, as of today, has been largely repudiated even within those intellectual circles that once fervently upheld it. This situation can be traced back to the intellectual legacy of the 17th century, marked by the emergence of novel scientific methodologies and philosophical frameworks introduced by luminaries such as Descartes, Galileo, and Newton. However, it is essential to recognize that no philosophical or scientific perspective can be regarded as definitive, as our comprehension of philosophy undergoes significant radical shifts and fluctuations. As knowledge progresses and new avenues of inquiry are explored, alternative perspectives, likely more robust, become conceivable.
The Modern theory of relativity in physics supports Iqbal’s standpoint by depicting matter not as a static substance, nor reality as an unchanging entity-views commonly associated with Classical materialism and classical Greek philosophy-but rather as a system of interrelated events, characterized by a dynamic void and continuous creative evolution. Time is characterized as subjective and objective, as well as sequential in nature, and is not an absolute. However, Iqbal enriches this interpretation by introducing the notion of ‘duration’ in conjunction with linear time, positing that ‘reality deep in its inner being lies, perhaps the dream of a new birth’ and ‘Time represents a free creative movement, and reality possesses a spiritual essence’. So this distinctive viewpoint challenges the constraints of Western philosophical thought and presents a novel framework for understanding the concepts of time and reality.
Forensic Accounting Skills as Determinants of Self-Efficacy in Fraud Detection: A Study of Social Security Account Officers
Authors: - Adrian M. Gomez
Published: January 2025

This study examined the impact of forensic accounting skills on self-efficacy in detecting fraud, specifically employer delinquency, among Philippine Social Security System (SSS) Account Officers in Regions III (Central Luzon), IV-A (CALABARZON), and IV-B (MIMAROPA). It assessed the proficiency levels of Account Officers in key forensic accounting skills—Technical and Analytical Skills, Effective Communication Skills, Psycho-Social Skills, and Accounting and Auditing Skills—and evaluated their impact on self-efficacy. The study also aimed to propose a competency development plan to enhance fraud detection capabilities. Using a descriptive-correlational research design, data were collected through a researcher-made questionnaire, validated, and pilot-tested with Region V (Bicol) Account Officers. Descriptive statistics and regression analysis were used to analyze the data. Findings revealed advanced proficiency in all forensic accounting skills, with Psycho-Social Skills positively influencing self-efficacy, while Effective Communication Skills showed a negative impact. Technical and Analytical Skills and Accounting and Auditing Skills did not significantly affect self-efficacy. These results highlight the importance of targeted training and development initiatives focused on Psycho-Social and Effective Communication Skills to enhance the self-efficacy of Account Officers in fraud detection. A competency development plan was proposed to address these findings and improve fraud detection capabilities.
STRUCTURING FEATURES OF NON-NEWTONIAN OILS
Authors: Sakit Rasulov Sakit Rasulov
Published: January 2025

The rheology problems of non-Newtonian oil, accompanied by the physical phenomena of for-mation and destruction of coagulation structures and aggregates, significantly affecting the flow are considered and analyzed. Also are considered issues of hydrodynamic interaction of particles leading to the formation of disordered structures, which significantly change the rheological prop-erties of non-Newtonian oil. It has been noted that the formation of coagulation structures de-pends on energy dissipation, viscosity, stress or shear rate, and the size of the particles forming the structure. With increasing asphalt-resin content in the oil, the probability of particle collision in-creases, increasing the rate of formation of various disordered structures up to a framework that nullifies the rate of oil flow. Non-Newtonian oils are characterized by a fairly high content of as-phalt-resinous substances and paraffinic compounds that are prone to coagulation structures and aggregates. This factor significantly affects the rheological properties of the oil, primarily its effec-tive viscosity and diffusion, making its transport and storage difficult.
Keywords: rheology, non-Newtonian oil, coagulation structures, models, asphalt-resinous sub-stances, kinetics, technology.

Authors: Hasanova Amaliya Hasanova Amaliya
Published: January 2025

In the modern world, providing people with ecologically clean food products, including meat and dairy products, is an urgent issue. In the studied northeastern slopes of the Lesser Caucasus and southern and northeastern slopes of the Greater Caucasus there are favorable physical and geo-graphical conditions for the development of animal husbandry. In recent years, the increasing im-pact of human economic activity has had a negative impact on the degradation of large natural landscapes and biogeocomplexes. Because of this, the ecological structure of many populations is changing and there is a real threat of destruction of certain hierarchical groups of animals. Infesta-tion of livestock with various helminthic pathogens causes quality of milk products, live weight of animals, reduction of wool quality, weakening of fertility, delayed growth and development, low nutritional value of meat, etc. causing productivity losses, including mortality among animals. In-fection of livestock with helminthic pathogens is associated with environmental conditions and anthropogenic factors. In this regard, it is necessary to study the peculiarities of distribution of helminthic pathogens common among sheep in the region by landscape-ecological zones, infection rates, population dynamics of the main and intermediate hosts, parasite-host relations in mixed invasions, population structure of helminths in the external environment and in the host organism.
Keywords: biogeocomplexes, helminth pathogens, livestock, sources of infestation.

Published: January 2025

Dating violence is a significant public health concern, particularly among youths, where emotional and behavioural factors may contribute to the escalation of such behaviours. This cross-sectional study investigates the influence of emotional regulation and alcohol abuse as well as sex on dating violence among young adults in Lagos State, using a sample of 486 participants. It was hypothesized that young adults who are male will be more likely to engage in dating violence than females and emotional deprivation and alcohol abuse will have an independent and joint influence on dating violence among young adults. The results revealed a significant influence of sex on dating violence (t = 3.197; df (485); p <.05). Furthermore, male young adults were more likely to engage in dating violence than their counterparts. Additionally, alcohol abuse was found to have both independent and joint predictive effects with emotional deprivation on dating violence (R² = .310, F (2,484) = 108.49, p < .05). The study suggested that parents and caregivers should consciously pay attention to both the physical and emotional needs of children. The study also advocates for comprehensive programs by governmental and non-governmental organizations to prevent and minimize alcohol abuse among young adults in Lagos state and for those experiencing dating violence, the study encourages seeking help and speaking out, emphasizing that victims are not to blame and that support is available. Additionally, perpetrators of dating violence are encouraged to seek help to improve their behaviour

Published: January 2025

Tractor safety on public roads is a critical concern in modern agriculture, necessitating the integration of advanced safety technologies to mitigate risks and enhance operational efficiency. This paper explores the significance of the Overtake Warning (OTW) system as a proactive safety solution designed to address the challenges associated with overtaking manoeuvres and vehicle interactions on roadways.
The OTW system serves as a vital component of Operator Assistance Systems, providing tractor operators with real-time alerts and warnings when vehicles attempt to overtake. This enhances situational awareness and reduces the likelihood of collisions. By leveraging radar sensors, intelligent algorithms, and warning logic, the OTW system offers a comprehensive approach to road safety, enabling operators to make informed decisions and navigate roadways with heightened safety consciousness.
Statistics reveal the prevalence of road accidents related to overtaking manoeuvres, rear-end collisions, poor visibility conditions, and driver distraction, underscoring the urgent need for advanced safety systems like the OTW system. By incorporating visual and acoustic warnings, the OTW system aims to prevent accidents, streamline tractor operations, and promote a culture of safety compliance among operators and road users.
This dives deeper into the OTW system's design, functionality, and benefits, highlighting its role in enhancing tractor safety protocols, reducing accident risks, and fostering a safer road environment for agricultural operations. The insights presented underscore the importance of technological innovations in improving road safety and advancing the efficiency of tractor and in general off-road vehicle operations on public roads

Published: January 2025

Thermal runaway is a serious safety concern in lithium-ion batteries, the type commonly used in electric vehicles (EVs). It's a cascading event where a battery's internal temperature increase triggers a chain reaction that can lead to fire and explosion. Due to internal short circuit there can be damage to the separator, a thin membrane separating the positive and negative electrodes, can cause them to come into contact, leading to a current surge and heat generation. This damage can be caused by physical impact, manufacturing defects, or degradation over time. Even there are chances of external short circuit, where in the battery's positive and negative terminals come into unintended contact with a conductive material, a large current can flow externally, causing rapid heating. Due to over usage of batteries, sometimes over charging is done in which pushing a battery beyond its safe charging voltage can cause internal damage and heat generation. A specified battery pack when connected to mechanical load for traction, such as in Electric vehicles will be recommended to operate at rate speed and rated distance, but to reach last mile connectivity sometimes over usage of battery results in over discharge, which means draining a battery below its safe minimum voltage, and it can also stress the battery and increase the risk of thermal runaway. The environmental conditions also affect the battery state and in situations where extreme heat can accelerate chemical reactions within the battery, increases the risk of thermal runaway. In the present work the authors have attempted to model a thermal runaway in a lithium-ion battery pack. A lithium ion pack with relevant energy requirement calculations are performed for electric vehicle of 100 BHP equivalent conventional IC engine and presented. Python code is used through the pybamm library module and electrochemical parameters are modelled for lithium ion cell.

Published: January 2025

In this paper, new vector fields are defined along a curve lying on an orientable hypersurface with nonvanishing extended Darboux curvatures of the second kind, and some new planes and curves are introduced using these vector fields in Euclidean 4-space. It is also shown that in 4-dimensional space, these new planes play the same role that the Darboux vector W = 𝜏𝑔T − 𝜅𝑛V + 𝜅𝑔N plays in Euclidean 3-space. Besides, developable and non-developable ruled hypersurfaces associated with these new vector fields are defined.
