The Statutory Interpretation of Renewable Energy Based on British Government Constitutional Forms towards New Public Management of Sustainable Development for Corporate Governance Using Artificial Intelligence
Authors: Llarena Zharama
Published: February 2024

Purpose: The current production for energy consumption generates harmful impacts of carbon dioxide (CO2) to the environment causing instability to sustainable development goals. The constitutional reforms of British government serve to be an important means of resolving any encountered incompatibilities to political environment. This study aims to evaluate green economy using developed equation for renewable energy towards political polarization of corporate governance.

Methodology: The Kano Model Assessment is used to measure the equivalency of 1970 Patents Act to UK Intellectual Property tabulating the criteria for the fulfillment of sustainable development goals in respect to the environment, artificial intelligence, and dynamic dichotomy of administrative agencies and presidential restriction, as statutory interpretation development to renewable energy.  

Findings: The constitutional forms of British government satisfy the sustainable development goals needed to fight climate change, advocate healthy ecosystem, promote leadership of magnates, and delegate responsibilities towards green economy. The presidential partisanship must be observed to delineate parties of concerns and execute the government prescriptions in equivalence to the dichotomous relationship of technology and the environment in fulfilling the rights and privileges of all citizens. Hence, the political elites can execute corporate governance towards sustainable development of renewable energy promoting environmental parks and zero emission target of carbon dioxide (CO2) discharges.

Implications to Theory, Practice and Policy: The economic theory developed in statutory interpretation for renewable energy serves as a tool to reduce detrimental impacts of carbon dioxide (CO2) to the environment, mitigate climate change, and produce artefacts of bioenergy and artificial intelligence promoting sustainable development. It is suggested to explore other vulnerabilities of artificial intelligence to prosper economic success.

Published: February 2024

Purpose: This study aimed to examine the relationship between attitudes toward the electronic tax system and VAT compliance while assessing the mediating effect of the adoption of the electronic tax system among SMEs in Fort Portal City, Western Uganda.

Materials and Methods: The study used a cross-sectional design, adopting a quantitative approach. The study used a survey method with a structured self-administered questionnaire to collect data from the managers. The study population comprised 297 SMEs, generating a sample of 165 SMEs in the Central and North Divisions of Fort Portal City. SMEs were selected by stratified simple random sampling while respondents were purposively selected. Pearson correlation and Hierarchical multiple regression analysis techniques were employed using SPSS version 22.

Findings: The study established that the adoption of the electronic tax system partially mediates the relationship between attitudes towards the electronic tax system and tax compliance among SMEs in Fort Portal City. It was established that whereas attitudes towards e-tax system predict tax compliance, the effect is better felt through the adoption of the e-tax system.

Implications to Practice and Policy: Premised on the technological acceptance model, the study has brought out the inevitable role the adoption of the e-tax system plays in explaining the relationship between attitude toward the e-tax system and tax compliance among small and medium enterprises. SMEs are urged to ensure tax compliance and maintain a good reputation through online registration, filing of tax returns, and prompt settlement of tax obligations to limit tax avoidance and incidental consequences.

It identifies some of the confusion around the specificity of higher education administration and presents a definition that clarifies how administration differs from management, leadership, and governance, as well as circumscribes the role of academic and career administrators in relation to those of administrative staff members. The article closes with recommendations for future research.
Transition Experiences of Mature Students at Ontario Colleges
Authors: Jafar Hayfa F.
Published: February 2024

Drawing on 24 semi-structured interviews, this small-scale qualitative study delves into mature students’ social, academic, and career preparation experiences pursuing college education. Using Schlossberg’s (1989) transition model, the findings reveal that mature students’ overall experience is influenced by their mature status, as they possess greater confidence derived from their previouswork and education experiences and the acquisition of new skills from their programs. However, some mature students perceive the career services offered by the college as being geared toward younger students, often disregarding their previous work experience. Consequently, they find these services less applicable to their needs. The transitioning-in stage for mature students is characterized by initial uncertainty that gradually transforms into a growing sense of confidence, fuelled by their experiences. These experiences motivate mature students to actively contribute to the college community by becoming mentors and assuming a supportive role for younger students during the transition-through stage. The transitioning-out for mature students involves evaluating career options and harbouring some skepticism. Nonetheless, the majority of participants expressed positive experiences and excitement about the new chapters in their lives. This study highlights the significance of tailored support and resources that acknowledge the specific needs and experiences of mature students throughout their college education.

Authors: Elliott Sean , Fitzgerald Carolyn
Published: February 2024

This study identifies factors contributing to the success of foster care alumni (FCA) who graduate from post-secondary education (PSE), despite institutions devoting little effort to making PSE accessible to FCA. Nine FCA PSE graduates were interviewed about their success.  Responses were analyzed using an exploratory method to identify themes related to factors deemed critical to theirgraduation from PSE. Ferguson’s (2019) conceptual model of a Student Development Pathway was used to organize findings; success factors were analyzed accordingly to their role in the Preparation, Awareness, Engagement, Transition, and Persistence phases. Findings suggest the role of coaching and caring adults was most notable in the Preparation, Engagement, and Transitional phases to PSE. Determination factored predominantly during the Persistence phase, and Resistance was most associated with the Preparation and Persistence phases. Findings also indicated numerous untapped opportunities and initiatives that could make PSE more accessible and achievable for FCA.

Where Did They Go? Regional Patterns in Early Transfer in Ontario Post-Secondary Education
Authors: Hillier Cathlene , Sano Yujiro , Pizarro Milian Roger , Zarifa David
Published: February 2024

Research on transfer student flows has focused almost exclusively on transitions occurring between colleges and universities. Few have sought to systematically examine the regional dimensions of these student flows, and how they may map on to prevailing migration patterns that drive individuals out of remote geographical regions. Through this study, we perform the first comprehensiveanalysis of regional dynamics in early transfer student flows within Ontario post-secondary education (PSE), drawing on novel administrative linkages within Statistics Canada’s Education and Labour Market Linkage Platform (ELMLP). Our empirical analyses (i) map the magnitude of transfer student flows across the province, and (ii) statistically model the predictors of within- and cross-region forms of student transfer. Our findings demonstrate that PSE students commencing their studies in the provincial north are more likely to transfer out of their region, and that correcting these imbalances could serve as a useful strategy to retain and inject further human capital into northern communities. We explore the implications of these findings for both provincial policy makers and researchers interested in how geography shapes student trajectories.
The Origin and Evolution of an Anomalous Academic Credential: The Ontario College Advanced Diploma
Authors: Skolnik Michael
Published: February 2024

The Ontario College Advanced Diploma requires three years of post-secondary education and the attainment of learning outcomes like those of a three-year baccalaureate degree. Except for one other Canadian province, no similar academic credential is awarded by colleges in Canada or the United States. For these reasons it has been viewed by some as an anomalous academic credential. This article relates how Ontario colleges came to offer such a rare credential and how the credential survived for over half a century. Employing the concept of path dependence, the origins of the advanced diploma are traced back to the institutes of technology that were first established in Ontario in the 1940s. The article employs a mix of historical inquiry, document analysis, enrolment trend analysis, and literature review methodologies.

Authors: Omaye Solomon Ochada , Sa’ad Suleiman , Usman Ali Baba , Rasheed Shehu El
Published: February 2024

By adopting the Cobb-Douglas production function, this study examined the relationship between energy consumption, GDP, capital stock, and labour in 22 African countries from 1990 to 2018. To achieve this goal, the simultaneous equations were analysed after utilizing the Generalized Method of Moments (GMM)/Dynamic panel data estimation approaches. To determine the most fitted model between the fixed and random model, the study employed the Hausman model and its approved the random model as the best fitted model. According to the empirical results, energy consumption has a strong positive influence on GDP. This suggests that as the economy expands, so will energy consumption. The coefficients of labour and capital are significant, though labour implies negative effects. Also, GDP has a firm positive influence on energy consumption. This suggests that as the economy expands, so will energy consumption. Capital has a positive coefficient. This means that the countries are capital-intensive. The Labour coefficient is negative and statistically significant, indicating that capital is more energy intensive than labour-intensive generates the majority of GDP. This also implies that capital replaced labour in those countries. Further, the Dumitrescu Hurlin Panel Causality Tests revealed a bidirectional relationship between GDP and energy consumption. Thus, there is a bidirectional relationship between energy consumption and GDP across the entire continent. Energy policy formulations are likely to be the best long-term economic growth strategy in African countries.

Published: February 2024

Extension services are intended to promote “agricultural development” by enhancing farmers’ technical expertise, farm management abilities, and an efficient information system. This will ultimately lead to increased production, higher returns on investment, and a long-term boost for the local, national, and international economies. Little or no success information was recoded in terms of extension policies and language of communication used by extension workers in Nigerian context. Effectiveness of these policies and language of communication used in the implementation of extension services for crop farmers was not much available. To achieve this, there is need to study the factors influencing the achievement of extension services among crop farmers. Correlation and regression model were used to achieve the cause-effect analysis among the policies and language of communication in influencing crop farmers on the achievement of extension services in North-eastern Nigeria. The findings revealed that the relationship between policies and language was positive and highly significant (p<0.05) among the crop farmers on achievement of extension services. Language of communication recorded the strongest (r = 0.739) relationship. The cause-effect relationship between the variables further showed that policies and language of communication significantly (p<0.05) affected achievement of extension services among crop farmers. The regression model was significant with an R-value of 0.755. In this respect, the current study concludes that language of communication of extension workers influences the achievement of extension services delivered to crop farmers in North-eastern Nigeria.

banjir bandang yang terjadi di Bukit Lawang Bahorok menewaskan sekitar 300 jiwa dan menghancurkan 400 bangunan, banjir bandang Wasior pada tahun 2000 menyebabkan kematian 150 orang dan banjir bandang Jember tahun 2006 menewaskan lebih dari 100 orang. Curah hujan ekstrem dengan intensitas tinggi yang disertai terjadinya kegagalan lereng (slope failure) punggung badan air yang menyebabkan terjadinya damming di saluran air merupakan karakteristik utama dari banjir bandang, Dampak tersebut menyebabkan banjir bandang terjadi sangat cepat flash dan membawa bahan rombakan (debris flow). Penelitian metodologi pendekatan kerentanan banjir bandang adalah pendekatan analisis dimensi fisik. Metode Multi dimensi Metode Multi dimensi mengabungkan kerentanan internal (sosial) dan kerentanan eksternal (bangunan), dimana kerentanan internal adalah berupa komponen kerentanan individu seperti elemen-elemen berisiko, paparan fisik, karakteristik sosial dan kelembagaan yang bertanggungjawab atas paparan. Pendekatan analisis kerentanan fisik memerlukan data elemen berisiko yang terpapar yaitu karakteristik bangunan yang terpapar (jenis bangunan, jumlah lantai, luas, bahan konstruksi yang digunakan dan tahun konstruksi), nilai/harga bangunan berdasarkan ukuran/denah bangunan.

Kualitas air sungai di Indonesia umumnya semakin menurun, termasuk kualitas air sungai Weh Toweren. Jumlah penduduk yang semakin bertambah berdampak pada meningkatnya limbah buangan penduduk ke perairan. Peningkatan ini juga memaksa semua sektor produksi dan konsumsi meningkat sehingga memperparah kerusakan sungai. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah menilai kualitas air di muara Sungai Weh Toweren. Metode penelitian ini menggunakan metode diskriptif laboratoris. Penentuan status mutu air sungai menggunakan metode Storage and Retrieval of Water Quality Data System (STORET). Parameter yang dijadikan dasar penentuan status kualitas air sungai berupa parameter fisika dan kimia. Parameter fisika terdiri dari suhu, kecerahan, kekeruhan, padatan terlarut dan padatan tersuspensi. Parameter kimia terdiri dari pH, oksigen terlarut, kebutuhan oksigen biokimiawi, kebutuhan oksigen kimiawi, nitrat, nitrit, sulfat dan minyak lemak. Data kualitas air yang digunakan merupakan data sekunder yang diperoleh dari Dinas Lingkungan Hidup Kabupaten Aceh Tengah periode 2017 s/d 2021. Terdapat beberapa parameter dengan nilai maksimum telah melewati baku mutu air Kelas I diantaranya; TSS, BOD5 dan COD. Berdasarkan analisis STORET, bahwa status mutu air Sungai Weh Toweren apabila dibandingkan dengan baku mutu air Kelas I berada pada Kelas B atau “tercemar ringan” dengan indeks STORET (-8). Parameter yang menyebabkan mutu air sungai tercemar, antara lain oksigen terlarut dengan skor (-2), BOD5 (-2), COD (-4).

Aceh merupakan provinsi yang berada dibagian paling barat dari kepulauan Indonesia dan dikelilingi oleh perairan, terletak di daerah tropis yang menerima radiasi matahari paling banyak. Kondisi wilayah Aceh yang bergunung-gunung dan berlembah-lembah mengakibatkan pola curah hujan yang berbeda-beda dan beragam. Laut merupakan peranan yang lebih penting dari pada daratan dalam proses terjadinya hujan. Dimana sebagian telah memberi kesimpulan bahwa SML dengan curah hujan memiliki kaitan. Oleh karena itu, perlu dilakukan penelitian mengenai hubungan suhu permukaan laut (SML) terhadap awal masuk musim hujan dan karakteristik curah hujan di wilayah Utara-Timur Aceh. Tujuan dari kajian penelitian ini adalah untuk mendapatkan informasi dari pengaruh antara SML dengan curah hujan di wilayah Utara-Timur Aceh. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah analisis korelasi. Berdasarkan hasil analisis data pada wilayah Utara-Timur Aceh pola curah hujan diwilayah Utara-Timur Aceh bertipe monsun dengan sedikit pengaruh dari ekuatorial. Korelasi antara curah hujan dengan anomali SML menunjukkan nilai yang berbeda-beda disetiap wilayah. Hasil analisis korelasi awal masuk musim hujan tertinggi terjadi pada daerah Banda Aceh dengan nilai sebesar 0,1495 yang terjadi pada dasarian ke 25 dan lama musim hujan berlangsung selama 12 dasarian. Sedangkan awal masuk musim hujan terendah terjadi pada daerah Aceh Timur yaitu 0,0278 yang terjadi pada dasarian 24 dan lama musim hujan berlangsung selama 13 dasarian.

Introdução: Quando se trata de literatura policial, a escritora inglesa Agatha Christie é considerada uma das romancistas mais bem sucedidas da história da literatura pelos seus inúmeros livros vendidos. Devido ao seu aprendizado recebido em hospitais durante a primeira e a segunda guerras mundiais, Agatha Christie adquiriu conhecimento sobre vários venenos que aparecem em suas obras. Em venenos e produtos químicos, é utilizado o sistema harmonizado de classificação e rotulagem de produtos químicos (GHS) para definir os seus perigos específicos. Objetivo: Apresentar uma proposta didática de como as histórias de Agatha Christie podem ser utilizadas no ensino do GHS. Material e métodos: Foi realizada um levantamento bibliográfico dos venenos que aparecem em obras de Agatha Christie. Os venenos foram triados a partir de uma busca informações sobre sua classificação no GHS no site PubChem. Baseado nas informações obtidas, foi desenvolvida uma proposta didática de ensino do GHS. Resultados: Das obras de Agatha Christie foram levantados 28 venenos diferentes, sendo triados 20 a partir da busca de informações sobre sua classificação no GHS pelo site PubChem. O ácido fórmico foi utilizado como modelo para apresentação de uma proposta didática de como um conto “A maldição dos Lemesurier” pode ser usado em sala de aula no ensino do GHS. Conclusões: As obras de Agatha Christie apresentam diversos tipos de venenos que podem ser utilizados como recurso didático no ensino do GHS. Novas pesquisas aplicando a proposta apresentada devem ser realizadas para discutir a proposta didática apresentada.

The concept of Open Balkan emerged four years ago among high-ranking officials of Balkan countries, driven by the aspiration for increased cooperation in economic and other vital areas. The collaboration between Serbia, North Macedonia, and Albania aims to tackle socio-economic challenges, fostering regional cooperation for better state integration and the joint use of resources to combat unemployment and economic issues. This initiative has led to various agreements and acts forming the legal framework, mirroring the European Union’s values of unrestricted movement of people, goods, capital, and services. Key areas include establishing a single market, recognizing diplomas and qualifications, introducing administrative benefits in employment, and streamlining work permits. Facilitating free labor market access reduces emigration and aligns labor supply and demand across sectors. The construction of a unified labor market involves implementing an electronic system for identifying and applying for freelance jobs within the regional Union, serving as a potent tool for migration control and addressing labor shortages in specific professions.
