Authors: Bwalya Peti Richard , Monga Yengo Hilaire , Kilufya Kisoma Hugues
Published: December 2023

But : Depuis quelques années, les différents secteurs d’enseignement se sont inscrits dans une logique de programmes de formation axés sur le développement des compétences. La République démocratique du Congo fait face à de nombreux défis dans son système de santé, et en particulier dans le domaine des soins infirmiers. Pour répondre à ces défis, une réforme structurelle et fonctionnelle de la direction des soins infirmiers dans les hôpitaux publics serait nécessaire, en tenant compte de l'articulation avec le système LMD qui est en arrimage dans l'enseignement supérieur congolais. Le passage au LMD fait partie d’une réforme, visant à harmoniser le système éducatif congolais avec les normes internationales et à faciliter la mobilité des étudiants et des diplômés sur le marché du travail.

Cette étude a pour objectif  de déterminer l’opportunité d’une réforme de la Direction de nursing dans sa structure organisationnelle et fonctionnelle en la dotant de professionnels qualifiés et bien formés dans chaque domaine d’apprentissage à l’ère de l’arrimage du LMD.

Méthodologie : De ce fait, l'étude utilise une méthodologie qualitative, avec des entretiens semi-structurés avec le personnel de l’Hôpital  Général de Référence de Kikula/DACO de Likasi, Province du Haut-Katanga en République Démocratique du Congo  au cours des mois d’Août et Septembre 2023. Un questionnaire a été déployé aux récipiendaires à l’aide de l’outil Kobotoolbox et les données ont été traitées à l’aide de SPSS, microsoft Excel et microsoft word dans l’élaboration des tableaux.

Résultats : Nous avons enregistré 62 soumissions des professionnels de santé. Ce qui a donné les résultats suivants en lien direct avec la thématique : 58,1% ont estimé nécessaire une réforme de la Direction de Nursing. Cette réforme concernerait à 90,32% une Direction de Nursing plurielle soit un leadership tournant à 88,7%.

Contribution unique à la théorie, à la pratique et à la politique : En conclusion, la réforme impliquerait une réorganisation de cette direction avec de nombreux avantages, entre autres l'amélioration de la technicité, l’efficacité dans la diversité des filières et des pratiques naissantes propres à chaque nouvelle discipline. De nouveaux défis de leadership s’accentueraient ipso facto inhérents à la réforme des matières et pratiques professionnelles. Ceci nécessiterait des formations continues pour les infirmiers déjà en service. 

La réforme de la Direction de Nursing contribuerait sûrement à une professionnalisation et l’autonomisation des infirmiers dans leurs diversités. De ce point de vue, il serait impérieux de mettre en place une nouvelle structure hiérarchique claire.

Published: December 2023

Purpose: The effective ways of handling misbehaviour in school is rarely deliberated upon by policy makers and educators. This research studied the effective strategies used in Public Senior High Schools in the Kumasi Metropolis of Ghana.

Methodology: The mixed-method approach was used to gather both qualitative and quantitative data with structured questionnaires and interview guides.

Findings: The analysis suggests that 92.21% of parents favoured suspension over rewards (9.03%). Teachers (86.74%) favoured referring students to the disciplinary committee over writing bad comments on students’ reports (34.8%). Students (86.13%) preferred use of reward to caning (57.07%) as most effective disciplinary strategy. The analysis of variance (ANOVA) further suggested a significant difference in the perspective of parents, teachers and students on the most effective disciplinary strategies like rewards (P≤0.001), inviting parents (P≤0.000), negative testimonials (P≤0.000), suspension (P≤0.000), disciplinary committee (P≤0.000), manual work (P≤0.000), and caning (P≤0.000). The managers support the use of counselling, cleaning, weeding, reflection and repeating a class as effective.

Unique Contribution to theory and practice: This study concludes with the proposition that disciplinary committee processes, suspensions and rewards for students are effective in handling student misbehaviour. It is recommended that parents, teachers, students and managers work together as collaborators in ensuring effective discipline in the school.

An empirical assessment of the impact and role of the indenting agents in the supply chain of pharmaceutical raw material from China
Authors: Pandey Kapil Dev , Narula Anupam , Singhal Richa , Kumar Nitendra
Published: December 2023

Even though India ranks third in the world for pharmaceutical output, there is an undue reliance on China for APIs (Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients), bulk pharmaceuticals, intermediates, primary raw materials, and fermentation technology. Only Chinese raw materials are used in the nation’s production of pharmaceutical raw materials. The Export Promotion Council for Pharmaceuticals is taking steps to reduce this undue reliance on China. If China elected not to provide those products, it would have problems addressing both domestic health needs and export requests. India must act to create a production process strategy since China’s costs are gradually growing. The Pharmaceuticals Export Promotion Council also represents these issues in the relevant fora, and the Center takes the condition into consideration. To accomplish these goals, the researcher in this paper is attempting to determine the impact of the indenting agent’s position in the supply chain between Chinese manufacturers and end-users during the import of pharmaceutical raw materials. China still has a more important role to play, though. To identify the variables and accomplish the research’s goals, analysis of variance methodologies was employed and 118 end consumers from various regions of India were recruited.

Authors: Pillai Rajani H. , Bi Aatika
Published: December 2023

The unanticipated global spread of the COVID-19 virus has posed an extra challenge to the world’s educational systems, forcing teachers to adopt online or blended modes of instruction. Teachers face a wide range of difficulties as they adjust to the digital pedagogical style, new pedagogical concepts, and the expectation that they will find creative solutions to meet the academic and personal needs of their pupils. Institutions of higher learning are working to develop programs to help students, especially those from underprivileged backgrounds, make up for academic ground they may have lost.In offline, online, and hybrid learning models, there is an increased emphasis being placed not only on the health and safety of instructors, but also on the collaboration between authorities and a wide variety of other stakeholders. While there is a growing body of study being conducted on related goods and initiatives in industrialized nations like the United States, there is a considerably smaller body of information that has been collected on the subject in developing nations like India. There is need for study on the efficacy of blended models as well as the health and happiness of the educators, and this may be done using qualitative, quantitative, or hybrid methods. In fact, there are a variety of assumptions about blended model implementation in education that are worth exploring beyond simple causality. Similarly, it is descriptive and exploratory in character, with the goal of learning how newer and more exact systems should be fashioned.The purpose of this study is to investigate the influence that blended teaching can have on the mental health of educators. Convenience sampling was used to obtain the sample for this investigation, and it was distributed throughout the teaching fraternities of commerce and management colleges. For the purpose of the study, a sample size of 150 educators was gathered, with a margin of error of 10% and a confidence interval of 95 percent. A qualitative pilot research was done on this topic with a group of fifty instructors, and a well-structured questionnaire was constructed by considering their findings. A statement based on a Likert scale is included in the questionnaire in order to gauge the challenges associated with blended learning as well as the personal wellbeing of the instructors. The statistical analysis of the data will be carried out with the help of the software packages SPSS and AMOS. The findings of the study will be of tremendous use to the teaching community in terms of coping with the obstacles posed by blended learning, and such methods can be widely implemented for the benefit of the students.

The virtual worlds may be described as a persistent online computer-generated environment that facilitates people’s interactions, working, playing games, hanging out in a park etc. These virtual worlds are created by using a technology known as virtual reality (VR). Initially, the concept of ‘Virtual Reality’ (Lanier, 1988) was used by airlines, car manufacturers and military. Later on, this technology was used in movies, computer games also. In the recent past one such virtual world was launched by Mr. Mark Zuckerberg and its name is ‘Metaverse’. This term was first used by (Stephenson, 1992) in a sci-fi novel Snow Crash which later on influenced The Matrix Series and Ready Player One – a Steven Spielberg film. Metaverse is a much wider conceptualization which  not only includes virtual worlds but also mirror world, augmented reality and internet (Smart, Cascio, Paffendorf 2007). The present paper is an effort towards understanding the emergence of Metaverse as a digital platform and its influence on the marketing activities.

Measurement and validity of Jennifer Aaker’s brand personality scale for Indian apparel brands
Authors: Kumar Jitender , Sikka Simran
Published: December 2023

In modern business, the rivalry has shifted from price to non-price, necessitating the use of not just the market, but also marketing tactics. Consumers are frequently connected to a product or a brand that is associated with their own identity. Positive purchase intention may be established through successful Brand personality as customers develop associations in their mental maps by responding to a brand. This study attempts to investigate whether the brand personality dimensions proposed by Aaker (1997) may be applied to Indian apparel businesses targeted at Generation Y. The study’s findings support the commonly acknowledged dimensions of brand personality, which are vigorous, integrity, charismatic, uniqueness, and versatility. However, due to the postmodern lifestyle of Generation Y, ruggedness was not extracted. The study discovered a new personality dimension for apparel brands that are Unique and versatile and might be further explored in more detail in the future. We offer recommendations for apparel brand managers on different marketing mix activities they might use to communicate alternative brand personas to Generation Y.

ZLOČIN GENOCIDA U PRAVU O ODGOVORNOSTI / THE CRIME OF GENOCIDE IN LAW OF RESPONSIBILITY
Authors: Omerović Enis
Published: December 2023

The paper deals with the issue of the responsibility of the main subjects of international law for grave breaches of obligations arising from the imperative norms of general international law in relation to the commission of the crime of genocide. The focus of this paper is in certain aspects of the relationship between individual criminal responsibility and the international responsibility of States and international organizations, which should be interpreted as two separate systems of responsibility in international law. Each system has its own special fundaments, features and characteristics. Consequently, the starting point is that the responsibility of States for genocide does not depend on the responsibility of individuals for the crime, although the International Court of Justice has made extensive use of the conclusions of the chambers of the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia. (Judgment from 2007). The paper therefore analyzes the question of the existence of a theoretical legal possibility for the so-called indirectly proving the responsibility of States (and international organizations) for genocide through a prior examination of the criminal responsibility of leaders, but also through proving a joint criminal enterprise for the purposes of committing the crime, or do these conceptions represent a starting point for the responsibility of the main subjects of international law or they are simply "proof" of the attribution of the act to a State? In this paper, we examine whether a joint criminal enterprise could be a reflection of a State plan and/or policy for committing the crime of genocide and how a collective plan or policy for committing that crime could be interpreted. After all, are they actually a dolus specialis of this crime, that is, whether a genocidal intent is manifested in a State precisely in a plan or policy?

Telecom Churn Prediction Using Machine Learning
Authors: Ashwini Atmaram Patil  , Nilesh R. Wankhade
Published: December 2023

Telecom churn prediction is a critical task for telecom companies to retain their customers. Churn refers to the phenomenon where a customer discontinues their subscription or service with a telecom company. Predicting churn helps telecom companies take proactive measures to prevent churn by identifying potential churners and offering them attractive retention strategies. This abstract presents an overview of the telecom churn prediction problem using machine learning techniques. The telecom churn prediction problem involves analyzing historical customer data, including demographic information, usage patterns, billing details, and service history, to predict whether a customer is likely to churn in the future. Machine learning algorithms are used to learn patterns and relationships from this data and make predictions based on new, unseen data. Telecom churn prediction using machine learning involves preprocessing historical customer data, feature engineering, selecting appropriate machine learning algorithms, evaluating model performance using various metrics, and deploying the best-performing model in a production environment. By implementing this process, telecom companies can reduce churn rates and improve customer satisfaction.

The study aimed to compare the effectiveness of two teaching strategies, one utilizing GeoGebra and the other employing traditional manual drawing tools in the guided discovery activities. A two-group experimental design with a pretest and posttest was used, along with a perception survey as qualitative support. The study was conducted over one grading period, involving a population of 120 Grade 9 students from Mindanao State University at Naawan-Integrated Developmental School. Data were collected through questionnaires and inductive reasoning activity worksheets developed by the teacher, which underwent rigorous reliability and validity testing. The Wilcoxon two-sample paired test results revealed a significant increase in scores from the pretest to the posttest for both the GeoGebra and the Conventional groups. However, the Mann-Whitney U-test and the independent t-Test indicated no significant difference between the two groups' performances in Mathematics proficiency and inductive reasoning activities, respectively. Furthermore, results of the perception survey showed highly positive perceptions of students on using GeoGebra, perceiving it to have enhanced their inductive reasoning ability. Overall, these findings suggest that using GeoGebra is equally effective as using manual drawing implements, having found no significant difference in performance between the two groups. Given these results and the positive review of students on the use of GeoGebra, it is recommended that the software's use be integrated into mathematics instruction.
