Best Practice STEM-Based Differentiated Mathematics Learning for Improving Learning Outcomes and Self-efficacy of High School Students
Authors: Slk Angga Permana , Fitriani Nelly
Published: October 2024

Learning outcomes and self-efficacy are important learning factors. Mathematics learning outcomes can reflect the extent to which students have developed as learners, while self-efficacy reflects students' self-confidence in their own abilities in solving mathematical problems. This study was based on a qualitative approach, best practice. This best practice uses the STAR flow (“Situasi, Tantangan, Aksi, Refleksi”). The situation at SMAN 1 Mande, especially class XI, shows low learning outcomes and lack of self-efficacy. The challenge faced is planning and implementing differentiated learning to improve learning outcomes and student self-efficacy. Through a STEM-based differentiated learning approach, researchers designed and implemented contextual learning on the theme of global warming with integrating science, technology, engineering and mathematics. The results of this best practice indicate an increase in learning outcomes and student self-efficacy. STEM-based differentiated learning can also improve understanding of mathematical concepts at the high school level. Researcher recommend that educators embrace differentiated learning strategies by customizing their approaches to accommodate the diverse needs such as students' level of readiness, interests, and student’s learning profile. The significance of comprehending student characteristics, such as learning styles and thinking abilities is paramount, especially in the implementation of student-centered learning. Additionally, educators are advised to prioritize aligning learning objectives with the curriculum, ensuring relevance and engagement. This various approach aims to create a dynamic learning environment to resonates with students individualized level. Develop interventions to address students' lack of confidence in solving mathematical problems can improve self efficacy.

Published: October 2024

Malaysia’s captivating attractions are increasingly promoted through community-based ecotourism (CBE) initiatives. These efforts aim to empower local communities, conserve nature, and generate income by involving locals in managing ecotourism resources and activities, ensuring both economic benefits and sustainability of protected environments. CBE highlights diverse customs and cultures, enhancing ecotourism experiences through local resources. Understanding tourists' attitudes and preferences is crucial for developing sustainable cultural tourism packages. Key inquiries involve measuring local community participation, artistic elements, and tourism offerings in CBE management around protected parks. Evaluating tourism preferences and willingness to pay (WTP) for attributes provided by local businesses is essential for effective CBE management strategies in rural areas. This study employs the Choice Experiment model to analyze tourists' preferences for CBE activities and their marginal willingness to pay (MWTP) for management attributes at Min House Camp (MHC) in Kubang Kerian, Kelantan. The attributes examined include local community involvement, activity packages, accommodation facilities, and information provided. The study found 'super' package activity, increased local participation and employment, excellent accommodation, and adequate information to be the most important attributes. The study suggests that business owners and local managers adopt the CBE concept and focus on the key qualities that have been identified. Local communities and stakeholders should implement new tour packages at MHC, combining desirable features to meet market demand. Future studies could use a mixed logit model to account for multiple attributes of community ecotourism tours in protected parks.
Analyzing the Impact of Financial Liberalisation on Malaysian Bank's Performance: Quantile Regression Analysis
Authors: Arifin Nur Afizah Muhamad , Osman Ismah , Shaharuddin Norhasimah , Mat Nor Fauzias
Published: October 2024

This study employs quantile regression analysis to examine the impact of financial liberalization on the performance of Malaysian banks, focusing on how these effects vary across different performance levels. A liberalized banking sector prompted commercial banks to intensify risk-taking activities, which ultimately could affect the bank’s performance. Using quantile regression analysis, it shows that only the middle quantile indicates all the significant variables for both OLS and quantile analysis. This study found that lower-performing banks may face adverse effects, including increased risk and deteriorating performance, due to heightened financial liberalization. The findings highlight the differential impact of financial liberalization across the performance spectrum and suggest that while liberalization can drive economic growth targeted regulatory measures are necessary to support less and mitigate potential risks to overall financial stability in Malaysia.
Evaluating Trust in Blockchain Technology for Waqf Adoption: Insights from Importance-Performance Map Analysis
Authors: Mokthar Mohammad Zulfakhairi , Sapuan Noraina Mazuin , Safian Sharul Shahida Shakrein
Published: October 2024

Blockchain technology offers transformative benefits for waqf by enhancing transparency, security, and efficiency. Its decentralized ledger system allows for independent transaction verification, reduces central authority risks, and improves accountability. However, while the potential benefits are significant, the success of blockchain-based waqf initiatives hinges on the level of trust that stakeholders place in this technology. Therefore, the study aims to examine the effect of trust in blockchain technology on the intention to adopt waqf blockchain with insight from importance-performance map analysis to better understand the relations between trust and intention. The study adopted a survey research design and data was collected through questionnaires distributed throughout Malaysia. The collected data were then analyzed using Smart-PLS software. The results of the analysis indicate a strong positive relationship between trust in blockchain technology and the intention to adopt waqf blockchain. However, the importance-performance map analysis shows a critical disparity exists between user expectations and actual performance, especially regarding the transaction process, which scored the lowest in performance. This implies a need to focus on improving the transaction process to align with user expectations.
Islamic philosophy and modern social science: The need to re-examine the methods of forming social theories in the sphere of religious culture
Authors: Halilovic Seid
Published: October 2024

Social theories are logically associated with a series of terms that
represent their principles and consequences. When they are realized in
society, they actualize the entire network of their conceptual additions in
a logical order. One part of this network primarily attracts the attention
of the scientific community, while the other one remains hidden and takes
the form of marginal knowledge. Modern social science theories move from the
margins to the center of society once their philosophical principles are
actualized even in the sphere of general culture. In the context of Islamic
culture, these theories appeared in the shadow of the credibility of the
political and economic domination of Western societies, and their
philosophical principles remained hidden on the margins of domestic
knowledge. In the domestic cultural atmosphere, based on significantly
different knowledge, modern social theories have caused cultural and
historical disturbances, because they have not been reconstructed in
accordance with the needs of the cognitive heritage of Islam. Logical
principles of modern science have gradually left the marginal sphere and
dominantly influenced their new and weakened cultural environment, which is
facing identity challenges and crises on its way to complete
transformation.
From secession to submission: an ethical framework for non-territorial autonomy
Authors: Buzar Stipe
Published: October 2024

The purpose of the paper is to ascertain when non-territorial autonomy (NTA)
arrangements are a morally appropriate response by states to various
minority claims, given possible alternatives. As such, it is not about the
relationships between minorities and majorities, but minorities and the
state. The two main questions are: (1) What are the criteria of moral
appropriateness? (2) When are any of the alternatives morally appropriate?
Methodologically speaking, it makes sense to start from the most difficult
of the alternatives to justify secession because it represents the most
extreme possible claim of a minority towards a state, or even against a
state. Once such a criterion or set of criteria is established, the criteria
for other alternatives can only be reasonably lower, and the criteria for
secession will be indicative of what these lower criteria could be.

Through a fishbone diagram approach to find out the root of the problem followed by Failure Mode Effect Analysis (FMEA) including Pareto diagrams and risk map analysis to get priority risk problems in the form of production fluid processing methods. Furthermore, through the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) approach, the alternative solution taken is to modify the production fluid processing with CSSR (Contain, Sediment, Separate, Recovery) innovation. The results of this CSSR innovation are no more produced water is discharged into the environment so that the Tanjung Field Manager’s policy of moving towards zero produced water discharge is achieved. With this innovation, the processing efficiency of the production fluid in 2nd year (prediction) after innovation is 97.5%, up from 66.6% in initial year before innovation. By optimizing the use of produced water, the need for clean water for the injection program can be minimized. The reduction of clean water usage from Initial year to 2nd year (prediction) is 83.1%. The efficiency ratio of this innovation is 11.10 > 1 indicates that the program generates more savings and revenue than its cost, making it a worthwhile investment. In energy reduction, the effectiveness of this innovation from Initial year to 2nd year (prediction) is reducing energy by 94.96%. In emission reduction, the reduction of CO2 emission load from Initial year to 2nd year (prediction) is 95%. This innovation contributes to the 6th Sustainable Development Goal (SDGs) “Clean Water and Sanitation,” the 7th SDGs “Clean and Affordable Energy,” the 12th SDGs “Responsible Consumption and Production,” 13th SDGs “Handling Climate Change,” and the 14th SDGs “Ocean Ecosystems.”
Die Kritische Theorie zwischen Spätmoderne und Postmoderne: Nostalgie als Kritik
Authors: Zima Peter V.
Published: October 2024

Ausgehend von der Überlegung, dass die wichtigsten Vertreter der Kritischen Theorie (W. Benjamin, Th. W. Adorno, M. Horkheimer, H. Marcuse und J. Habermas) der sog. Frankfurter Schule im Bildungsbürgertum der liberalen Ära aufgewachsen sind, wird gezeigt, dass ihre Gesellschaftskritik von den Prämissen und Wertungen des liberalen Individualismus ausgeht. In diesem Kontext ist die Ambivalenz ihrer Kritik sowie Adornos und Horkheimers Satz aus der Dialektik der Aufklärung zu verstehen: "Nicht um der Konservierung der Vergangenheit, sondern um der Einlösung der vergangenen Hoffnungen ist es zu tun." Der nostalgische Ton, der in diesem Satz anklingt, durchzieht nahezu alle Werke der Frankfurter Philosophen. Obwohl postmoderne Autoren wie Z. Bauman, J.-F. Lyotard, M. Maffesoli und J. Baudrillard in mancher Hinsicht an die Kritische Theorie anknüpfen, verabschieden sie die aus dem liberalen Individualismus stammenden Wertsetzungen.

Authors: Husari Fatimatelbatoul M. , Assaad Mohammad A.
Published: October 2024

Handwritten character identification finds broad applications in document analysis, digital forensics, and human-computer interaction. Conventional methods encounter challenges in accurately deciphering a range of handwriting styles and variations. Consequently, investigating intelligent system for handwriting identification becomes crucial to enhance accuracy and efficiency. This paper introduces an innovative hybrid deep learning architecture, seamlessly integrating the strengths of convolutional neural networks (CNN) and long-short term memory (LSTM) within a one single framework. The combination of these structures enables the model to effectively capture both spatial features and temporal dependencies inherent in handwritten strokes, resulting in improved recognition performance. The proposed 2DCNN-LSTM algorithm has been tested on MNIST dataset. The proposed hybrid CNN-LSTM structure has been compared to conventional intelligent machine learning methods, and the results demonstrate the superior performance of the hybrid CNN-LSTM, showcasing heightened accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, and other evaluation metrics.

The level of the population well-being in the regions of the Russian Federation: institutional and infrastructural support
Authors: Artemova Olga V. , Melenkina Svetlana A.
Published: October 2024

The article examines the level of population well-being in the regions of the Russian Federation from the standpoint of their institutional and infrastructural support. It is a high-quality institutional environment and developed infrastructure that are the most important conditions for ensuring the population well-being in Russian regions. The authors note a significant differentiation in income levels and their polarization (by fund ratio, decile ratio), which is reflected in the poverty level of the population of the regions. The article presents the results of a study on two regions of the Russian Federation: one leading region and one outsider region, identified by the results of an earlier study conducted by the authors. Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous District is represented as the leader in terms of well-being, while the Republic of Ingushetia is an outsider. The authors proved that the Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous District, being in an unfavorable climatic zone, forms institutional and infrastructural conditions conducive to systematic work on social development and support of the population. At the same time, there is an increase in indicators of social inequality in the region, which may contribute to the development of social tension. Regarding the outsider, the Republic of Ingushetia, it was shown that, having conditions favorable for life and work, and forming an adequate institutional environment and social infrastructure, the region is characterized by an unfavorable social situation: low incomes of the population, high unemployment. The authors believe that it is possible to solve problems in the social sphere with the effective realization of the potential of the region and significant support from the federal center.
History of the Ancient World in Soviet Schools during the Great Patriotic War: Meaningful Recommendations for Teachers
Authors: Konopatkin Vladislav A.
Published: October 2024

This article analyses the advisory articles by V.I. Avdiev and A.N. Pankratova on ancient history lessons at school during the Great Patriotic War. According on these works, as well as other explanations of the evacuated professors, the local authorities published their own methodical manuals in 1942-1943. Based on these materials, the author concludes that Soviet teachers turned out to be essential workers on the ideological front. The events of antiquity were presented in a simplified way - states waging wars in antiquity were declared either explicitly “good” or explicitly “bad”, depending on the aims of the teacher. This dichotomy created room for historical analogies: comparisons were made with modernity, which were also simplified as much as possible for the sake of clarity. Lessons on the history of the ancient world had different objectives which helped to instill confidence in the younger generation that the Soviet Union was on the right side in the unfolding events. The struggles of the Soviet Union were compared to the liberation wars of antiquity. The teacher, when comparing it to the events current in the country, should have emphasised the complete political freedom of the citizens of the socialist homeland, where all forms of exploitation of man by man had been destroyed and thus attempts to turn the free proletariat living under socialist formation into slaves that existed exclusively within slave-holding societies were contrary to all the laws of historical development.

Authors: Rofiyanti Eka , Sumaryana Asep , Ismanto Slamet Usman , Sukarno Dedi
Published: October 2024

Urban areas are increasingly vulnerable to fire disasters due to high population density, sprawling infrastructure, and often inadequate safety measures. This study aims to analyze the capacity of the DKI Jakarta government in terms of human resource capabilities, asset readiness, and budget planning capabilities. Furthermore, it measures the government’s success as evidenced by the public response to the achievement of firefighter performance. This study uses qualitative analysis with a content analysis approach. Data sources come from annual performance report documents and the content of the DKI Jakarta Fire Department website containing city disaster information. Performance report and website data are analyzed and used as research data to support qualitative analysis. This research shows that command decisions are essential in the organizational structure of the fire brigade. Both laboratory services are carried out optimally as a concrete effort to map fire potential. The laboratory tests the safety and suitability of firefighting equipment. Available budgetary support provides broad operational powers for the fire service. The government’s strength in minimizing or overcoming fire problems has received a positive response from the public. The operational achievements of firefighting continue to be consistent and increase. Ultimately, this research provides scientific insight into disaster mitigation and reducing the fire risk in cities.

“I saw you on TV – here’s my problem”: Exploring participant experiences with second stories following mental health disclosures on Norwegian television
Authors: Lånkan Kjersti Blehr
Published: October 2024

The emotional and confessional nature of mental health disclosures on television sometimes induces audiences to share their own personal stories of mental health struggles in return. The term testimony loop is suggested to conceptualise this phenomenon, whereby Norwegian television participants become receivers of many audience testimonies through private messages on social media platforms. The participants represent the programme to the public and perform emotional labour through interacting with the audience and engaging with the testimonies received. While some television participants in this study, particularly the females, genuinely appreciated their role as helpers, others found this appeal to interact emotionally strenuous. By way of the television participants’ own attestations, this study seeks to enrich the understanding of the complexities involved in confessing personal stories of illness, suffering, and trauma within the context of mass media.

ИСТРАЖИВАЊЕ БРУТАЛИСТИЧКОГ АРХИТЕКТОНСКОГ ПРАВЦА НА ПРИМЕРУ ИСТОЧНЕ НЕМАЧКЕ
Authors: Јерковић Никола
Published: October 2024

Променом архитектуре града, стамбеног простора и јавних површина, мења се и стил живота људи, њихова свест и укус. Све то заједно доводи до промене потреба појединца, његових измењених афинитета и укуса. Човек на другачији начин посматра предмете око себе и ана­лизом једног архитектонског правца насталог после Другог светског рата, названог брутализам, наслед­ника модернизма, и анализом модела аутомобила, у овом случају аутомобила источнонемачке марке „трабант“, анализираће се и сагледавати животни циклус стамбеног простора, временског периода и предмета у њему. Предмет рада биће анализа зграда које су настајале у оквиру брутализма – архитек­тонског правца, а које су изграђене на територији Источне Немачке. Овим радом се, такође, скреће пажња на повремену површност људи у приступу употребним предметима, па се тако лако дозвољава да неки скоро безвремени производи, понекад суровом оценом релевантних критичара у датом моменту, постају веома брзо симболи неквалитетне робе. Покушаће се наћи одговор на питање зашто се олако дозвољава човеково повиновање предрасудама, пот­рошачком друштву и цикличним модним трендовима, и да ли све заједно, једно произилази из другог и једно иницира друго и да ли се све врти у једном зачараном кругу. „Трабант“ представља персонификацију јед­ног људског друштава и диктираних промена и циклуса у њему.

Accountability, Donor Funding and Non-Governmental Organisations in Kisumu County in Kenya
Authors: Wicklife Odhiambo Okinda  , Dr. Simon Oluoch Ondiwa
Published: October 2024

Accountability is an important aspect of all organisations today. Accountable NGOs have been found to receive large funding from donors and thus undertake development programs that alleviate human suffering. This study is set to establish the accountability of donor funding by non-governmental organisations in Kisumu County. The study adopted a descriptive survey design. The target population was the NGOs located in Kisumu County- Kenya. The population was made up of all the 187 NGOs in the region. The use of open-ended questions was justified because some of the information concerned sensitive matters of the NGOs, particularly those involving finances and governance. The study established that donor funding was dependent on the accountability mechanisms put in place by the implementing NGOs. The study revealed that NGOs were expected to keep a minimum set of financial statements, e.g. Statements of comprehensive income, statements of financial position and cash flow statements. The study revealed that community involvement in the oversight of NGOs was still not adequately practised and that satisfaction of the employees with their pay perks could not be established. Donors were keen on compliance with the laws of the country and involved the oversight bodies in checking the compliance and legitimacy of the NGOs before funding and partnering with them. It was established that donors expected performance measurements to be done and that NGOs prepared specific reports. The donors also demanded that the authenticity of the financial statements be verified by independent auditors. Therefore, this study recommends that NGOs develop proper and effective accountability mechanisms to measure performance and enhance legitimacy and accountability. This will include using proper performance measurement tools and compliance with donor and government regulations to secure sustained financing and ensure that the County's development agenda is achieved. The study further recommends that the NGOs procure the services of recognised audit firms that will offer value-adding audits, which, in effect, will boost donor confidence.
Trade Openness, Export Quality and Economic Growth Nexus in Kenya
Authors: Washington Mbuthia Gacheru  , Dr. Charles Gachoki
Published: October 2024

Economic growth is a major concern for developing and underdeveloped countries. High economic growth creates opportunities for poverty eradication, employment creation, investment, and wealth creation. While measures to enhance cross-border trade are regarded as effective in enabling economic growth, studies have yielded mixed results on their impacts. Kenya's trade openness level has declined, besides the country implementing various policies to strengthen cross-border trade. Trade openness declined from 57 percent to 27 percent between 1990 and 2020, underscoring the need to understand its effects on Kenya's economy. The general objective of this research was to analyze the impact of trade openness on Kenya's economic growth, and the specific objectives were to determine the impact of trade openness on the economic growth of Kenya and to establish the effects of the quality of exported products on economic growth in Kenya. Ordinary least squares estimation technique was used to determine the relationship among variables. The study established that trade openness does not lead to increased economic growth in Kenya. The research further found that an increase in the quality of exports increases economic growth in Kenya. The study concluded that Kenya should enhance the quality of its exports and diversify them to improve economic growth. Further, the paper observed that Kenya should lower the cost of doing business in the country to make her industries and products competitive, which can help ensure trade openness positively impacts the country's economy. It was observed that attempts to restrict trade openness are likely to lead Kenya to experience similar measures from its trading partners.
