Unpacking the Role of Higher Education Institutions in Accelerating Women’s Progressive Education in Kenya
Authors: Odhong Emily A. , Achieng Cynthia O.
Published: May 2024

Due to unprecedented global challenges, labour market dynamics, and uncertainties, higher education institutions have no options but to adopt new approaches to enhance adaptability. In Kenya, despite many efforts made to accelerate women's empowerment, only 29 percent of women between the ages of 15 and 49 are empowered. The universities have a unique capacity and potential to develop skills, foster knowledge, and mobilize educational resources. Hence, accelerating an inclusive socio-economic recovery starts with a solid foundation of human capital which entails: health, education, skills, jobs, and growth to boost progressive education.  The significance of the study is to: expand access to progressive quality education for girls and women; inform policies; enhance capacity to upscale women’s holistic learning and most importantly promote resilience and innovativeness among higher education institutions to emerge stronger. The main objective of the study was to analyse the role of higher education institutions in accelerating women’s progressive education in Kenya. The study was anchored on John Dewey's theory and women's empowerment framework, which cuts across and support both dependent and independent variable. The study adopted a mixed-method research design and, a pragmatic and constructive research philosophy. The researcher adopted a triangulation approach in sampling techniques where stratified, purposive, and random sampling techniques were applied.  The study sample size comprised 129 - degree students and 26 lecturers. Questionnaires were adopted as the data collection tool.  Based on the regression results, the study findings reveal that the R-squared is 0.62, the Adjusted R-squared is 0.61, the F-statistic of 31.94, and a p-value of 0.0000. This implies that the model explains 61% of changes in women’s progressive education. The study concludes that the public-private nexus, blended learning, digitalization, and student retention explain a 61% percent change in women’s progressive education. The study recommends: First, strengthening of public-private nexus through institutional industry linkages, upscaling support through adequate funding of women’s education, and considering Students as Partners in their learning. Second, embracing a blended learning approach to reduce the dropout rate of female students and upscale women empowerment through the integration of ICT skills training. Third, institutions should commit adequate resources to promote effective digitalization and improvement in ICT infrastructure that facilitates learning and is user-friendly to lecturers, learners, and administrators. Lastly, promoting students’ retention through mentorship, semester check-ins, workshops, and effective lecturers, to enhance student enrollment and acceleration which increases completion rate and school-to-work transition, and embracing transformative and sustainable leadership.
The Use of One-Part Directives in Developing Play Skills in Children With Autism During Trial-Based Instructions
Authors: Lao-Namocot Maria Lourdes
Published: May 2024

Play is one of the core deficits in autism. Children with autism have very different play behavior. The current study examines the of using a one-part directive during trial-based instructions on developing play skills in young children with autism. With the use of Single-subject research as an in-depth type of quantitative study of the response of an individual or a group of individuals to intervention. Participants were five children diagnosed with autism ages three to five years old. The task was introduced in a single case design across all sessions in both generalization settings. The participants seemed to have no apparent intervention effects, and one showed a decrease in play following the intervention. The possible reasons for the variability across participants and suggestions for improving methods in developing play skills are discussed. Acquisition and generalization of play skills may be affected not only by which play skills are taught but also by how play skills are taught. The careful selection of play activities may develop spontaneous play among children with autism and their peers.

Review of Correlations between Unconfined Compressive Strength (UCS) Values and Dynamic Cone Penetrometer (DCP–DN) Values of Stabilized Soils
Authors: Benard Baya Lameck , Ibrahim Lingwanda Mwajuma
Published: May 2024

This paper discussed test methods, test and sample types, types of stabilisers and soils, applications, and limitations of various developed relationships between UCS and DCP DN values. The review of correlations between unconfined Compression Strength (UCS) values and Dynamic Cone Penetration (DCP-DN) values of stabilised soils will provide guidance on the selection of suitable regression models from what is available in the literature to enable the estimation of UCS from DCP values. The DCP test was found to be economical, rapid, portable, easy to operate and understand, and the most versatile test that provides comprehensive results. Many studies and various nations have adopted the ASTM D6951 DCP equipment for use. Previous studies show that DCP DN values are affected by the soil type, stabiliser and curing period, particle size, plasticity, moisture contents, liquid limit, dry density, UCS, confinement in mould, and investigation depth. The various existing regression models are useful for quick estimation of in-situ UCS of stabilised layers since the termination of in-situ UCS is expensive, tedious, difficult, and time-consuming. However, these regression models must be used with caution as they are dependent on material properties and other factors that influence the DCP DN values. Furthermore, the available correlations cannot be treated as an absolute substitute for laboratory values, and their application requires experience and engineering judgment. This allows further research to develop multiple regression models to correlate UCS and DCP with the same compactive effort and mould size, which will consider material properties and the effect of confinement on the laboratory DCP DN test in the standard mould.
Assessing the Effect of Curricula Variation in Mathematics Teacher Education on Teaching Competency
Authors: Ezekiel Kihwele Jimmy , Mgata Fred
Published: May 2024

Curriculum development processes at universities are decentralised, resulting in varying subject-matter mastery levels among graduates. The paper examined the effect of teacher education curricula variation on mathematics teachers’ competencies. The study employed a case study design with 18 mathematics teacher graduates from nine teacher education institutions working in the Manyara region. The study used in-depth interviews, open-ended questionnaires, and documentary review methods to collect data. The findings revealed that despite mathematics teachers’ mastery of the subject matter, their competence slightly varied in some topics. There are mismatches between courses at different universities and topics in secondary schools that affect teaching competencies among teachers. Decentralised curriculum development at teacher training institutions results in dissonant curricula that produce different qualities in teachers. Despite various capacity-building mechanisms, teachers inadequately elevate their competencies. The study recommends the development of compulsory modules across teacher education institutions to reflect secondary curriculum requirements.
Validation of the Developed Structural Equation Model on Factors Influencing Artisans' Performance in Tanzanian Building Construction Projects
Authors: Juma Shengeza Japhary , John Msambichaka Joseph , Hassan Mwishwa Yazid
Published: May 2024

Artisans are key players in the construction industry. Artisans, in conjunction with other players, are responsible for turning drawings into tangible structures using materials and equipment. However, several reports suggest that their performance is inadequate, attributing it to poor workmanship and productivity. This study explores the influencing factors (IFs) for artisan performance and how disregarding these IFs leads to poor performance through the development of structural equation modelling (SEM). The study focuses on validating the developed SEM on IFs categorised as informal training factors (IF), motivational factors (MF), qualification factors (QF), and formal training factors (FF) and their impacts regarding achievements of workmanship and productivity by artisans when disregarded. The study validates the SEM model using a questionnaire distributed among construction industry experts. The study results demonstrate that disregarding IFs has a high, negative impact on artisan performance. Specifically, IF was found to have the most significant effect on artisan performance when ignored, with a mean score of 4.09, followed by MF = 4.00, Q = 3.82, and FF = 3.55. In the case of the model's applicability, effectiveness, and adaptability, the mean scores were 4.00, 3.55, and 3.45, respectively, indicating that the construct depicted in the model is highly applicable. The study concludes that considering IFs for artisan performance is crucial for addressing the root causes of poor performance and improving project success in the construction industry.
Modeling dominant height growth of teak plantations in the Caribbean region of Colombia
Authors: Martínez Camilo E. , Orrego Sergio A.
Published: May 2024

Identifying sites with adequate biological productivity is a critical factor in ensuring timber production and the profitability of forest-based investments. The productivity of forest sites is influenced by climatic, edaphic and topographic variables, as well as by silvicultural practices. Site index is a phytocentric method widely used to assess site productivity and its estimation is based on dominant height growth modeling. Teak is the fifth most planted forest species in Colombia, and its importance is associated with high economic returns and profitability. This study aims to model dominant height growth using the generalized algebraic difference approach for teak plantations established in the Caribbean region of Colombia. The Lundqvist-Korf model, in which the correlation of the residuals was handled with a continuous autoregressive specification of the first order, resulted in a satisfactory statistical estimation of the dominant height growth. The results indicate that in the Caribbean region of Colombia, productive sites for the establishment of teak plantations can be found as productive as in some tropical American countries and better than some sites in Asian countries. This suggests a potential for the expansion of teak plantations and forest-based investments in Colombia.

The Politicization of the Government/ Labour Relations in Ghana (1982-1992)
Authors: Walida DJEBAILI
Published: May 2024

À moins d'être autoritaire et répressif, aucun gouvernement au monde ne peut prétendre réussir sans le soutien de sa main-d'œuvre. Etre aux prises avec un partenaire aussi puissant signifie un échec flagrant de toute politique. Au Ghana des années 1980, cela n’a pas fait exception. Le présent article vise à souligner le rôle central que le Congrès des syndicats a joué dans le processus de démocratisation qui a donné naissance à la Quatrième République en 1992 à la suite d'un intense affrontement syndicat-gouvernement. Initialement une organisation ouvrière dont la tâche principale était de protéger les droits des travailleurs, le syndicat s'est retrouvé entraîné dans un conflit politique avec le gouvernement au pouvoir de l'époque, le Conseil Provisoire de Défense Nationale. Les violations des droits du travail par le gouvernement et le programme dereconstruction soutenu par le Fonds Monétaire International ont été les principales sources des griefs des travailleurs.
Abstract
Unless authoritarian and repressive, no government in the world can claim to succeed without the support of its labour force. To be at logger heads with such a powerful partner merely means a blatant failure of any policy whatever. In the Ghana of the 1980s, this was no exception. The present paper sets out to underscore the pivotal role the Trade Union Congress played in the democratization process that gave birth to the Fourth Republic in 1992 through an intense union-state clash. Initially a labour organization whose main task was to protect the rights of the workers, the syndicate found itself driven into a political conflict with the ruling government of the time, the Provisional National Defence Council. The violations of the labour rights by the government and the backed-up International Monetary Fund reconstruction programme were the main sources of the labour grievances.

L’auteure nous présente par la suite les travaux de recherches publiés sur les représentations des langues et leur apprentissage ainsi qu’un certain nombre de facteurs qui ont aidé la langue maternelle à se frayer un chemin en classe de langue étrangère. Différentes fonctions sont affectées à la langue première pour faciliter l’élaboration d’un répertoire verbal plurilingue et plusieurs théories y sont discutées. Enfin, l’auteur nous suggère de dépasser le décloisonnement disciplinaire en prenant en considération les pratiques langagières plurilingues et multiculturelles.
Abstract
The work Mother tongue in the foreign language class by V. Castellotti presents and illustrates with great clarity a point of view on the question of the role of the mother tongue in the foreign language classroom. It explains to us that the first language is beginning to regain a certain enthusiasm in foreign language classes thanks to the conjunction of research carried out on the cognitive and sociolinguistic levels. A number of concepts related to language contact are defined in this work. The author presents us the published research work on language representations and their learning as well as a number of factors that have helped the mother tongue to find its way into the foreign language classroom. Different functions are assigned to the first language to facilitate thedevelopment of a plurilingual verbal repertoire and several theories are discussed. Finally, the author suggests that we go beyond disciplinary de compartmentalization by taking into consideration plurilinguals and multiculturals languages practices.

Mélancolie, ironie, fureur ; modernité de Baudelaire
Authors: AGOSTINHO Larissa Drigo
Published: May 2024

Il s’agit ici d’analyser trois affects qui parcourent la poésie baudelairienne et les rapports qu’ils établissent entre eux. Nous examinerons d’abord la théorie baudelairienne du beau et de la modernité pour ensuite réfléchir, à partir de Walter Benjamin, sur le rapport entre l’antiquité et la modernité. C’est ici que le rapport entre mélancolie, ironie et fureur peut être analysé surtout si nous prenons en compte le rapport entre Baudelaire et la société de son temps. La relevance de cet article est qu’il met en lumière la porté critique de l’ironie et met l’emphase sur la procédure du choc comme forme de pointer le caractère innommable de l’expérience.
Abstract
The aim here is to analyze three affects that permeate Baudelaire's poetry and the relations they establish between them. We will first examine the Baudelaire's theory of beauty and modernity and then reflect, based on Walter Benjamin, on the relationship between antiquity and modernity. It is here that the relationship between melancholy, irony and fury can be analyzed especially if we take into account the relationship between Baudelaire and the society of his time. The relevance of this article is that it highlights the critical scope of irony and emphasizes the procedure of shock as a way of pointing out the unspeakable character of experience.

Political connections and corporate ESG performance
Authors: Hu Ying , Cheng Hui , Li Heng
Published: May 2024

With the popularization of the concept of sustainable development, corporate ESG performance has attracted more and more attention from all walks of life. However, there is still a lack of in-depth discussion on what factors affect corporate ESG performance, especially in a political and economic system like China. This article takes A-share listed companies as a sample to empirically analyze the impact of political connections on corporate ESG performance. The study found that political connections can promote corporate ESG performance by increasing media attention and reducing financing constraints. Further research found that this promotion performance is more significant in non-state-owned enterprises. This article combines the national conditions with Chinese characteristics, enriches the research on the factors that promote corporate ESG performance from the government perspective, and deepens the research on the role and consequences of political connections.
Bioplásticos: Sustentabilidad Ambiental y Principales Tendencias
Authors: Aponte Gloria , Soledad Beatriz
Published: May 2024

El objetivo de este artículo es presentar un análisis sobre el rol que tienen los materiales bioplásticos (biopolímeros) en materia de sustentabilidad ambiental y las principales tendencias a nivel mundial. Para ello se realizó un análisis de la literatura publicada tanto en artículos publicados en revistas y congresos especializados y las solicitudes de patentes publicadas en el período 2011-2021; así como también fuentes de información en el área de mercado. Entre los principales resultados se encuentran: El impacto ambiental causado por la gran cantidad de materiales de desecho no degradables está impulsando la investigación para desarrollar nuevos materiales biodegradables que puedan fabricarse a partir de recursos naturales como biomasa, plantas y bacterias. Hay una intensa actividad de investigación y desarrollo en el área de bioplásticos a nivel mundial, así lo indican la tendencia creciente que presentan las publicaciones y solicitudes de patentes en el área, así como las tendencias de mercado que cada vez van incursionando en nuevas áreas con aplicaciones novedosas desplazando así, poco a poco, a los plásticos convencionales.
