Published: June 2023

Academic management activities are an essential part of the world of education related to the teaching and learning process. Currently, the academic information system at one MTs school in Bandung is still being done manually, such as recording student data, teacher data, subject data, scheduling data, and class data. However, this method is considered less effective because it is prone to damage or loss of data. This study aims to develop a system for data collection in teaching and learning activities. In developing the academic system, the author uses a qualitative descriptive method, in which data collection is carried out through triangulation, data analysis is inductive/qualitative, and research results emphasize meaning rather than generalization, emphasizing use cases. The programming language used to design and implement this academic information system is PHP with SSL, and the database used is MySQL. The results of this research can assist Curriculum officers and teachers in managing student data, teacher data, subject data, scheduling data, and class data more quickly and reduce the risk of data damage or loss.

Published: June 2023

The purpose of this research is to examine how top management applies leadership and provides appropriate rewards to employee styles during the COVID-19 pandemic and endemic, as well as the impact on the company's financial performance. The research method used is descriptive quantitative, which is based on the philosophy of positivism. The population in this study were all employees of the Asep Stroberi Restaurant from its 11 branches, namely 396 employees. The research sample was all employees at Asep Stroberi Restaurant Ciawi Tasikmalaya, with a total of 36 employees. The results of the study found that financial leadership style has a positive impact on performance, while rewards on financial performance have a negative impact, which means that if there are too many rewards, financial performance will be disrupted or not good enough. This research can be taken into consideration by top management before giving rewards to employees, as a record of financial conditions before giving rewards.

Published: June 2023

The researcher conducted a study to understand the impact of work discipline and non-physical work environment on employee performance in a local government agency in Bandung. Additionally, this research aims to analyze the most dominant factors influencing employee performance between work discipline and the non-physical work environment in this particular local government agency being studied. The researchers interviewed 65 employees using questionnaires.
The research using path analysis found that the variables of work discipline and non-physical work environment in one of the local government agencies in the city of Bandung are valid. The conclusions and considerations regarding the research results emphasize the importance of paying attention to work discipline and non-physical work environment to enhance employee performance. The research findings indicate that Work Discipline (X1) significantly influences Employee Performance (Y). Furthermore, the Non-Physical Work Environment (X2) also significantly influences Employee Performance (Y).
To improve work discipline in one of the local government agencies in Bandung, we recommend that supervisors allocate time to supervise the implementation of company tasks and impose appropriate sanctions on employees who violate discipline. Leaders must pay attention to and be aware of any violations committed by anyone without discrimination among the employees. The company should also provide recognition to employees who perform well to enhance their performance. To improve the non-physical work environment, the researcher recommends organizing events or activities that can strengthen the relationship between employees and superiors, fostering mutual assistance and care among them. The local government agency should also maintain leaders who provide technical assistance to subordinates when they face difficulties, as it will significantly assist other employees.

Nghiên cứu này được thực hiện để kiểm tra khả năng dự đoán mô đun đàn hồi uốn tĩnh (MOE) và độ bền uốn tĩnh (MOR) thông qua các giá trị vận tốc truyền sóng ứng suất (SWVL) và khối lượng riêng (KLRL) đo trên các khúc gỗ ở 06 dòng Bạch đàn (UP54, UP95, UP99, U892, U1427 và PN14) được trồng khảo nghiệm bởi Viện Khoa học Lâm nghiệp Việt Nam năm 2014 tại Quảng Trị. Kết quả nghiên cứu đã chỉ ra có tương quan rõ ràng giữa SWVL với MOE và MOR khi hệ số xác định (R2) lần lượt là 0,57 và 0,51. Trong khi đó giá trị khối lượng riêng đo trên khúc gỗ không phải là một chỉ số tốt để dự đoán các tính chất cơ học khi không có tương quan được tìm thấy giữa KLRL với MOE và MOR. Khi hai chỉ số SWVL và KLRL được kết hợp với nhau thông qua giá trị mô đun đàn hồi uốn tĩnh động lực học (EL) thì tương quan gữa EL với MOR đã tăng lên 10% so với khi chỉ dùng một chỉ số SWVL, trong khi tương quan với MOE là không thay đổi. Kết quả nghiên cứu gợi ý rằng, công nghệ sóng ứng suất đo trên các khúc gỗ có thể dự đoán được một số tính chất cơ học (MOE và MOR) gỗ Bạch đàn và sự kết hợp với giá trị khối lượng riêng có thể tăng hiệu quả dự đoán giá trị MOR.

The Work-Family Roles Dynamics during Home-Based Teleworking
Authors: Eniola Olawunmi Elizabeth
Published: June 2023

Teleworking from home gives workers some degree of temporal and spatial flexibility, and at the same time, poses some consequences in terms of conflicts from the demands, requirements, expectations, and behaviors from the forces associated with both work roles and family roles. This integrative literature review investigated the conditions or forces that are responsible for the bi-directional inter-role conflict and the outcomes of the conflict when employees are teleworking from home, by synthesizing new and grey literature about work-family conflict and home-based teleworking. The forces from the work and family systems which are organizational, personal, spatial, temporal, technological, psychological, and familial are the crux of the work-to-family conflict and family-to-work conflict as they either cause friction or smoothness to the transition from work roles to family roles and vice versa during home-based teleworking. The forces either act as catalysts or inhibitors during the transition from work (family) roles to family (work) roles. The findings from this review were synthesized into the work-family roles dynamics model by incorporating concepts from physical sciences. The work-family roles dynamics model provides insights into the transition of home-based teleworkers and the work-to-family conflict and family-to-work conflict that ensue in the work and family systems. This article also offers a definition of work-family conflict based on knowledge from the synthesized literature. The work-family roles dynamics model posits new explanations about teleworking from home and bi-directional inter-role conflict. The work-family roles dynamics theory yields new ideas and questions for future research and implications for human resource management.
Study of Nick’s Characteristics into Writing the E. Hemingway’s Story.
Authors: Ahmed Tho Alfaqqar Ali
Published: June 2023

Ernest Hemingway is particularly known for his over-the-top style, which appears much simpler than it actually is, and its celebration of a specific type of hero who is tested, usually by war, and who emerges with a new outlook on life and the world. These heroes are usually thought to reflect elements of Hemingway's own life and personality, and this can be seen in the many figures representing different aspects of Hemingway's life. And in the stories about him there is a contrast between the world of Michigan, the smalltown world from which Hemingway came, and the world of war to which he was sent. Nick finds that the idyllic nature of Michigan is not as idyllic as it seemed, as in "Big Two- Hearted River" where his beloved fishing turns into something that recalls the horrors of war and shows violence and pettiness in the young. The city that mourns him. Nick had a good relationship with his father as the two hunted together and as the father got tired of teaching the boy how to deal with the realities and pressures of this life. Nick finds a contrast between his life, Michigan, and life in Europe and so begins to question the nature of American life in many ways. Nick's stories often present a clash of innocence and experience as Nick encounters people more world-weary than himself. In "The Battler," Hemingway offers a story that serves as a cautionary tale for those who will try to fight the world, because the world will always win
Socioeconomic Impacts of Development-Induced Displacement on Informal Settlement in Qalacha Khamdan, Kabul City, Afghanistan
Authors: Hakimzai Mubarak Shah , Zaheer Naeemullah , Saberi Saber Shah
Published: June 2023

Development-induced displacement projects mainly involved locations with informal settlements, especially slum and squatter areas which left behind many socioeconomic impacts on displacement households. This forced displacement has caused breaking living patterns and social networks, destroying economic status, increasing infectious diseases, and other severe health problems. Many development projects, such as dam projects, airports, and road projects, have been implemented since 2001 in Afghanistan. The Kabul-Logar Road extension project, located on the southern side of Kabul city, has foreseen will destroy the existing socioeconomic status of Qalacha Khamdan's dwellers. Therefore, this paper examines the socioeconomic impacts of development-induced displacement on informal settlements in Qalacha Khamdan by the Kabul-Logar Road extension project. Data has been collected through site observation, questionnaires survey of heads of families affected, interviews with key informants, committees’ members, and some data from Cernea's model (IRR). The finding shows that the displaced population has lost social cohesion, social ties, close connectivity with brothers, relatives and neighbourhoods, businesses, valuable lands and well-designed homes. Finally, this study argues for more government and private sector involvement to manage the socioeconomic impacts of development-induced displacement after displacement.
Combine Therapy of Gallic Acid and Allicin in Management of Diabetes
Authors: Kumar Roshan , Sood Prachi , Rana Dr. Vinod , Prajapati Anand Kumar
Published: June 2023

Type 2 diabetes, also known (DM) is a metabolic disorder with a high mortality and disability incidence. The development and activation of oxidative stress (OS) are crucial to the pathogenic development of DM. Pathophysiological evidence suggests that OS contributes to the onset and progression of DM through its association with hyperglycemia, resistance to insulin, and inflammation. It's worth noting that more and more studies are investigating the benefits of natural antioxidants for managing DM. Many different types of culinary and herbal plants contain the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory compounds gallic acid (GA) and allicin, respectively. The synthesis of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) is inhibited, fat is stored less, blood sugar and weight are improved, and the body produces fewer AGEs, according to the study's authors. Inhibition of RAGEs and prevention of AGE activity following treatment with GA and allicin resulted in reduced oxidative stress and enhanced insulin secretion. The goals of this article are to (1) provide evidence that GA and allicin may be effective antihyperglycemic treatments for DM and its complications and (2) provide a comprehensive review of the current state of knowledge regarding studies examining the role of oleic acid in this disease.

Background: The issue of pluralism has always been a topic of conversation from time to time, along with scientific developments. Likewise, theological thinkers and Islamic thinkers have highlighted pluralism to date regarding pluralism in Islamic education. Pluralism is an essential issue because it has contributed to developing the world of Islamic education. Purpose: This article examines the understanding of the concept of religious pluralism put forward by one of the Islamic leaders, namely Saykur Yasin or Buya Sakur. Methods: This qualitative research uses content analysis with data sources from books, journals, and YouTube related to Buya Sakur’s thoughts. Results: The concept of religious pluralism of Buya Sakur in developing Islamic education can be seen from the concepts he teaches at Islamic boarding schools, public recitations, and da’wah through Chanel YouTube. The uniqueness of pluralism thinking, according to Buya Sakur, is that the reality of life in this world shows pluralism and various ethnic groups, skin colors, languages, and different religions that receive recognition from God as reality Conclusion: The concept of religious pluralism that he conveyed was very different from that of other figures or scholars. Some claim that he has a concept of understanding, especially regarding religious pluralism which is liberal in orientation and adheres to relativism.

Mineral and coal mining activities in Indonesia have been going on for a long time, and because of this, many legal instruments that support it have certainly been formed. Its arrangements regarding the exploitation of minerals and coal are in accordance with Pancasila and the 1945 Constitution, however, because the Minerba Law was only able to reach legal actions after the publication of the Minerba Law, matters related to contracts of work that existed before the Minerba Law were not covered. The existence of a contract of work is considered inconsistent with Pancasila, namely the Fifth Precept “Social Justice for All Indonesian People” and Article 33 paragraph (3) of the 1945 Constitution concerning the substance of earth, water and natural resources “controlled by the state” and “used for the greatest prosperity of the people” . Post-reform, with the spirit of decentralization and regional autonomy, mining policy was directed at supporting mining management authority by local governments, and at the same time, an concession system based on mining business licenses was introduced. Contracts of work, which are standard agreements, should provide a greater portion of profits to the Indonesian people as owners of natural resources, because they have a higher bargaining position. In reality, by becoming a party to a contract of work, it does not give the Indonesian government a balanced bargaining position. To be able to accommodate the interests of the community in terms of cooperation contracts in the field of mining exploitation, it is necessary to revise existing contracts by incorporating provisions that are legally binding on business actors and the Government, especially those relating to aspects of community development and the implementation of social responsibility of business actors.

Published: June 2023

The article presents the attitude of the Communist Party towards religious communities on the local level in Kamnik in the first post-war years, particularly the attitude towards the Catholic Church and partly towards Jehovah’s Witnesses, who were the most active non-Catholic religious community in the area. Compared with other areas in Slovenia, the Party’s attitude towards the Church in the Kamnik area was slightly less conflictive in the post-war period; however, we can see the Party’s strong tendencies for controlling the Church and its members and for limiting the Church’s social influence.
Upravna ureditev Ljubljane in njenih občin v času socializma
Authors:   Study Centre for National Reconciliation, Piškurić Jelka
Published: June 2023

The article deals with the administrative arrangement of Ljubljana and the gradual formation of five urban municipalities during the period of socialism. Ljubljana experienced the most administrative changes between 1952 and 1963. The introduction of the communal system strongly influenced the development of Ljubljana. Five municipalities gradually formed in its territory: Bežigrad, Center, Moste - Polje, Šiška and Vič - Rudnik. Since Ljubljana was administratively divided into several municipalities, its development was decentralized despite the establishment of a city council with rights in the development of the city as a whole. More or less extensive rural areas joined the new municipalities. Connecting with rural areas was the result of the political decision to eliminate social and class differences as well as the differences between the city and the countryside.
exploratory investigation of traditional scoring in diving and relationships to the development of Artificial Intelligence opportunities
Authors: Jakab Simon , Davis Paul , Whyte Ian
Published: June 2023

This study investigated the conceptions of perfection that figure in the minds of divers, coaches, and judges. Additionally, consideration was given to their views of whether an Artificial Intelligence (AI) based scoring system could be relied upon to yield authentic results, allied with the desirability of its use. Six participants (2 each of diver, coach, judge) were interviewed. Following verbatim transcriptions, thematic analyses were conducted to identify commonly occurring themes relevant to diving and its scoring system. The results of this preliminary study have shown a leaning towards clarification of the rules on point deductions by FINA (Fédération Internationale De Natation/ International Swimming Federation). Furthermore, the concept of perfection in diving changes from country to country and culture to culture, providing further difficulties in the objectivity of judging and there was a call for openness and clarity. With the human element of judging carrying weakness and allowing for errors, subsequently, it was felt by the respondents that some parts of a dive should be measured with technology where feasible. There was a consensus that judges could not be fully replaced without substantive changes to the sport of diving, in effect losing the artistic element that is subjectively assessed.

Authors: Rodrigues Claudia Miranda , De Aguiar Leonel Azevedo
Published: June 2023

Esse artigo visa discutir um dos princípios ontológicos da prática profissional do jornalista: a busca de verdade como dever fundamental. Ao considerar a premissa do jornalismo como forma social de conhecimento, esse trabalho apresenta a relação entre notícia e conhecimento a partir das obras de Park (2008), Genro Filho (2012), Meditsch (1997) e Sodré (2009). Em seguida, discorre sobre a questão da veracidade dos enunciados jornalísticos e de que modo a crença verdadeira justificada (LISBOA & BENETTI, 2015; CORNU, 1994) se constitui como o solo epistemológico que edifica o processo do conhecimento pelo jornalismo. Conclui que a credibilidade, principal capital simbólico do jornalismo profissional, resulta do imperativo da verdade como critério normativo do processo de produção da informação jornalística. A metodologia está baseada na pesquisa bibliográfica, tendo como método a revisão sistemática da literatura.
Mestres artífices em Minas Gerais/Brasil do século XVIII, arquitetura religiosa: miscigenado saber fazer para intervenção
Authors: Jacques Fabiana Mendes Tavares , Dutra Ilka , Civale Leonardo
Published: June 2023

Nas Minas Gerais/ Brasil do século XVIII uma arquitetura singular foi desenvolvida. Considerada um fenômeno, abrangeu não somente o principal estilo arquitetônico da época, mas também a forma de vida, a mentalidade e o comportamento social. Chama-se este estilo próprio de Barroco Mineiro. Essas características peculiares estão diretamente ligadas à sociedade e história da região. A capitania mineira foi a primeira na colônia a possuir uma população essencialmente urbana. A partir de 1720, com a população organizada administrativamente em vilas e freguesias, o maior monumento era a Igreja Matriz, símbolo do poder religioso que tinha seu correspondente na esfera administrativa, nas Casas de Câmara e Cadeia. A construção dessas obras seguiu duas vertentes de conhecimento técnico: o acadêmico, por meio de tratados arquitetônicos vindos de Portugal; e o prático dos mulatos, adquirido do convívio entre os elementos português e africano, sendo depois desenvolvido de forma diferente. Esses artesãos não se organizavam em corporações de ofício. Partindo deste conhecimento e compreendendo a importância dos saberes-fazeres dos mestres artífices para o desenvolvimento da arquitetura Barroca em Minas Gerais, este trabalho se propõe a analisar a prática de construção desses indivíduos com o fim de preparar um material que colabora com os projetos de intervenção dessa arquitetura de referência nacional, considerando seus princípios originais de construção.

Published: June 2023

Os benefícios da prática de exercício físico são conhecidos e relatados por inúmeros especialistas e estudiosos acerca do tema e cada vez mais eles vêm sendo evidenciados pelos meios de comunicação, mídias sociais e profissionais da área. Mesmo sabendo de sua importância, por que tantos jovens optam por não praticar as atividades propostas pelos professores de Educação Física? Estaria a disciplina sendo vista como atividade extracurricular e sem importância para alguns alunos? O objetivo do presente estudo é identificar fatores responsáveis pelo afastamento dos alunos das aulas de Educação Física.  Entende-se este tema de uma extrema importância para aqueles que têm interesse em promover uma educação significativa para seus alunos, pois a Educação Física pode propiciar diversos benefícios, melhorando a saúde de forma geral. Deste modo, identifica-se a necessidade de se observar o fazer pedagógico do docente, que deve apresentar novos conhecimentos na prática de atividades físicas, oportunizando vivências que de fato serão praticadas, incluindo aqueles que um dia se sentiram excluídos. Percebe-se que ainda ocorre discriminação relacionada à Educação Física escolar, que é vista como algo banal e sem importância para a própria escola. Tendo em vista que nem todo desinteresse é por parte do aluno, existe uma parcela de responsabilidade do próprio professor de Educação Física, pois compreende-se que o mesmo tem extenso repertório educativo e deveria utilizá-lo para desenvolver competências e habilidades, além de incentivar e conscientizar a autonomia nas práticas de atividades físicas, não restringindo o ensino a somente algumas modalidades esportivas, privilegiando somente os mais aptos fisicamente.
Reflexões sobre a formação de professores e o modelo gerencialista neoliberal: uma análise a partir da resolução CNE/CP n. 2/2019

O estágio atual do capitalismo define, com base em seu receituário neoliberal, novas configurações para a agenda educacional global. Suas novas diretrizes reconhecem a educação como um processo indispensável para inserir os países no processo de competição, próprio do ideário do capital, bem como tornar o sistema educacional responsivo e ajustado as demandas da economia global. Dialogando com o aprofundamento da lógica neoliberal-gerencialista no Brasil, esse artigo propõe refletir criticamente sobre a concepção de formação de professores exarada na Resolução CNE/CP n. 02/2019, assim como a confluência de interesses entre instituições do Estado e setores empresariais e seus reflexos sobre as dinâmicas curriculares para formação do educador. No tocante as disposições metodológicas, empreendemos uma revisão bibliográfica e uma análise documental na busca de compreender as raízes da proposição e das concepções exaradas na Resolução CNE/CP n. 02/2019.  Com o aporte crítico de análise de diversos autores, tais como: Gentili (1996), Freitas (1995), Antunes (2000), Ball (2005), Pimenta (2008), Azevedo (2008), Lima (2012), dentre outros. Os resultados apontam que as diretrizes formativas preconizadas em 2019 não se configuram em novidade, mas em reelaborações aprofundadas da lógica gerencialista neoliberal, iniciada no final do governo de Fernando Henrique Cardoso (FHC). Esses agentes disputam o Aparelho Estatal há mais de duas décadas e buscam impor uma hegemonia interpretativa e o fortalecimento das redes de influência que buscam a abertura de mercados no campo educacional. Está posto, pois, que a lógica neoliberal, que hoje se fortalece e é gestada dentro e fora do Conselho Nacional de Educação, explicita, em certo grau, o avanço do gerencialismo educacional que configurou as Diretrizes de 2019. Menos autonomia e mais controle, menos heterogeneidade e mais homogeneidade, mais conhecimento útil e menos conhecimento crítico sintetizam as concepções políticas sob as quais elas foram pensadas e formuladas.
Sentidos e significados de ser professor para docentes experientes: o ciclo de vida profissional de professores
Authors: Da Silva Nathália Ferreira , Da Silva Maria Eneida , Da Silva Kátia Augusta Curado Pinheiro Cordeiro
Published: June 2023

Este trabalho propõe a análise dos sentidos e significados de ser professor para o docente experiente, sendo considerados experientes os docentes que atuam há mais de cinco anos em sala de aula, a fim de compreender como esses professores se desenvolvem e enxergam a profissão durante os anos de exercício da docência. A pesquisa se justifica não somente pela aquisição de conhecimentos sobre o tema proposto, mas pela expectativa de que esses conhecimentos possam contribuir para o entendimento da construção de sentido feita pelo docente ao longo de sua vida profissional e a dinâmica presente entre diferentes concepções. Com base em autores que apresentam essas diferentes concepções, como Huberman (2000); Tardiff (2000); Saviani (1996); Freire (2005); entre outros, a análise se dá a partir do levantamento de dados por meio de questionário, além de revisão bibliográfica de textos sobre o ciclo de carreira profissional e as formas de significação do ciclo de carreira. Quanto aos resultados, foram analisadas questões que buscam informações sobre o tempo de vida profissional docente e sobre os sentidos e significados acerca desta questão durante o ciclo de vida profissional. A partir da análise dos dados, foram encontradas seis categorias utilizadas para demarcar os significados presentes nas respostas, sendo elas: o potencial transformador social; ensino de conteúdos; afetividade e vocação; formação e realização profissional; aprender ao ensinar; e dificuldades, insatisfações e lutas. Essas categorias expressam o sentido de ser professor em diversos momentos do ciclo de vida profissional.

Published: June 2023

Na região amazônica, o fruto do cupuaçuzeiro é um importante componente de renda dos pequenos produtores rurais. A fruta apresenta um grande potencial de exploração pelas suas propriedades orgvanolépticas, diversidade de utilização e alto valor comercial. O cupuaçu possui semente recalcitrante, por esse motivo o armazenamento de suas sementes para reprodução é considerado um desafio e necessita ser conduzido em condições apropriadas a manter sua qualidade fisiológica. Procurou-se saber mais sobre o percentual germinativo de sementes de cupuaçu armazenadas em embalagens de polietileno e ao natural, no intuito de estipular o tempo e o material adequado para seu armazenamento. Foi realizado teste de viabilidade após determinados períodos de armazenamento. As embalagens de polietileno demonstraram maior eficiência na armazenabilidade de sementes de cupuaçu, apresentado mesmo após 168h o teor de água de 42,7%, com percentual germinativo de 77%. Enquanto as sementes armazenadas ao natural pelo mesmo período apresentaram teor de água considerado baixo para sementes recalcitrantes, prejudicando seu percentual germinativo que atingiu apenas 8%.
Government policy on former foreign migrant workers who are at risk of infecting HIV/AIDS in East Lombok District, Indonesia

Published: June 2023

Purpose: This study aims to determine government policies for former migrant workers at risk of transmitting HIV/AIDS and find solutions to improve the effectiveness of these policies. The Province of West Nusa Tenggara is ranked fourth in Indonesia due to the increasing transmission of sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) and HIV/AIDS among migrant workers from Lombok. The main factor causing the high number of Indonesian workers going abroad is the economic factor. This sending of workers has a negative impact on their return to the district, for example the spread of HIV/AIDS and STDs.

Design/Methodology/Approach: This study used a qualitative-descriptive approach to understand the behavior, views and attitudes of migrant workers towards government policies and the risk of HIV/AIDS transmission. Determination of informants in this study using a purposive sampling technique.

Finding: The results of this study explain the risk of HIV/AIDS transmission and the lack of information about transmitting HIV/AIDS among migrant workers.

Conclusion: Migrant workers are marginalized and lack sufficient knowledge about HIV/AIDS transmission and its prevention. Their perception of risk is generally low, services and access to information about HIV/AIDS and its impacts are limited and there are cultural misunderstandings and the high cost of treatment for foreigners among illegal migrant workers.

Research Limitations: The study’s focus is limited to the East Lombok District. Other provinces have not been addressed.

Practical Implications: The results of this study can be used as a reference for local governments to make or reformulate health policies.

Contribution to Literature: This case can be used as a reference for developing health policies especially for Indonesian migrants.
Head teachers' perceptions about time spent on teaching and learning: A context from Nepal
Authors: Kunwar Rajendra , Shrestha Amrit Kumar , Poudel Kamal Kumar , Phuyel Shyam Prasad
Published: June 2023

Purpose: The study explores the perceptions of head teachers about time spent on teaching and learning in their schools. Specifically, the study investigates the headteachers' perceptions of teacher-spent time (TST) in teaching and its implementation status in school-level education in Nepal. 

Design/Methodology/Approach: It is based on the qualitative descriptive survey research design. It was carried out with ten community school headteachers of the Ilam district as the sample. Six of them belonged to three rural municipal areas, and four were from two municipal areas. The sample for the study was drawn purposively. A semi-structured interview was used to collect the data from the headteachers as the respondents, and the data was analyzed by applying the thematic analysis technique under five themes. 

Findings: The result indicates that the disparity among the schools in terms of physical conditions and resources resulted in workload management problems, challenges with TST implementation, and weak supervision. 

Conclusion: It was concluded that the promotion of teacher awareness about their profession was necessary for effective TST implementation and the overall development of quality education. 

Limitations and Implications: The study uses only one variable-headteachers' perceptions of TST and a small sample that may affect the generalizability of the result. So, it is suggested that a further study be conducted covering various dimensions of TST. 

Practical Implications: Despite these limitations, the study has a number of practical implications for the Nepalese education policy and practice as well as other contexts with a comparable set of circumstances. These include improving school leadership, enhancing teacher preparation, and addressing resource shortages to improve student learning outcomes.

Contribution to Literature: The study can contribute to the literature on education by highlighting the perspectives of head teachers and providing insights into effective strategies for optimizing the amount of time spent on teaching and learning.
Factors Influencing Maltese International Sports Performance in the Pan-European and Microstate Contexts: An Empirical Study
Authors: Muscat Inglott Matthew , Vella White Corissa
Published: June 2023

Little scholarly attention has so far been given to discerning macro-level factors influencing Maltese underperformance in international sport. Degrees of financial investment, as well as national socio-economic metrics like Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and the Corruption Perceptions Index (CPI) have previously been linked with international sports performance outcomes in larger countries, so we carried out a three-stage study to explore if and how such relationships scale down from the pan-European to small-state contexts, and what implications they might have for Maltese sport. We used a post-positivist quantitative approach, with statistical analysis of secondary data using ordinary least squares regression and basic comparison of proportions. GDP and population were the strongest predictors of Olympic success at the pan-European level, more so than actual total financial investment. At the small-state level, however, GDP per capita was more predictive than GDP alone, while CPI was the strongest predictor of all. A more fine-grained comparative analysis between Malta and other small states supported the notion that a Maltese underperformance problem does indeed exist. The findings clearly show a disconnect between competitive sports and non-competitive physically active recreation in Maltese policy-making, where a more holistic approach appears warranted. While Malta, like any small state, would meanwhile do well to maximise its GDP per capita and lower systemic corruption in pursuit of better international sports performance, more empirical research is needed to fully understand and eventually control the underperformance problem.
