Authors: Vouyoukas Constantinos , Tzouriadou Maria , Anagnostopoulou Eleni 
Published: January 2025

In recent years it has been argued that for compensating children's difficulties in school achievement their underlying cognitive and learning strengths and weaknesses should be considered. This requires a different approach to evaluating children's difficulties in school learning, which should include not only their school achievement, but also the underlying cognitive abilities or aptitudes. The aim of this study was to examine if underachievement or low language school achievement of children from low socioeconomic status families can be predicted by their learning and language aptitude. One hundred and ten 10-12 years old primary school students from the area of Macedonia, Greece, were assessed with a psychometric standardized learning aptitude test (DTLA-4) and a psychometric standardized language aptitude test LaTo Level II. Their language school achievement was assessed with an informal language test based on the school curriculum. Research findings indicated that both learning, and language aptitude may predict students' oral and written language achievement. More specifically, general mental and language aptitude significantly predicted total language school achievement (p=.006 & p=.000), the receptive language system significantly predicted reading comprehension achievement (p=.000), the organization language system significantly predicted argumentative achievement (p=.002), the expressive language system significantly predicted written expression achievement (p=.002), the semantic language modality significantly predicted written expression achievement (p=.005), and the morphological language modality significantly predicted syntax and spelling achievement (p=.001 & p=.004). Recommendations highlight the importance of students’ difficulties early identification and the critical role of school-based evaluation teams.

My aim is to note the lack of consensus surrounding a definition, indicating instead that we ought to look for various attributes and instances of fascistic events and movements. In introducing the contributions in this volume, I seek to highlight not merely their scholastic value but the role they can play in helping us make sense of the fascist phenomenon.

Published: January 2025

Good sleep quality in congestive heart failure (CHF) patients helps repair heart muscle cells. Sleep hygiene is one of the non-pharmacological interventions to overcome sleep disorders. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of sleep hygiene on sleep quality in CHF patients. A Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT) with two groups was taken using probability sampling with block random sampling method. Sleep quality was measured using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and sleep habits using the Sleep Hygiene Index (SHI). Outputs were measured based on the change in the mean between the measurement time using the paired t-test and the difference in the mean between groups using the independent t-test. A total of 30 respondents were involved in this study. The intervention group showed a significant improvement in sleep quality after sleep hygiene therapy with a mean difference (MD) of 4.20 (SE=0.70; p-value=<0.01). Sleep quality between the two groups showed a significantly greater difference in the intervention group than in the control group (MD=-2.13, SE=1.00, p-value=0.04, effect size (Cohens'd)=-0.77). Sleep hygiene is a non-pharmacological intervention that effectively improves sleep quality in patients with CHF.

Published: January 2025

This study explores the essential factors and challenges shaping the Board Licensure Examination for Professional Teachers (BLEPT) performance of Bachelor of Elementary Education graduates of Batch 2022 within the new curriculum framework. It intended to profile, describe the influencing factors on exam performance in terms of personal, school, and home-related/family factors, discover the challenges perceived to impact performance, and propose a sustainability plan to achieve better performance in the licensure exam. A mixed-method approach, specifically descriptive phenomenology was employed with 51 respondents in the quantitative and 14 participants in the qualitative part. Key findings show the dominance of females (82%) in teacher education, most of them attended the formal review sessions (75%), and the majority are passers (82%). Influences of factors have a very great extent which underscores positive self-perception in personal factors (4.36), satisfaction with school infrastructure, faculty competence, curriculum, and administration (4.57), and a generally supportive family environment, although with variations in parental monitoring (4.28). The challenges include work-life integration, financial strain, and psychological and emotional stress emphasizing the multifaceted nature of exam preparation. No significant disparities emerged based on sex and BLEPT outcome (student/personal factors, p = .249; school-related factors, p = .664; and home/family-related factors, p = .855), highlighting consistent influences across diverse groups. However, significant distinctions were discovered in student and home-related factors between formal review attendees and non-attendees (with Cohen’s d values of 0 .69 (large effect) and 0 .65 (large effect), respectively), emphasizing the impactful role of formal reviews. The study recommends a sustainability action plan to lessen these challenges and enhance the preparation process for future exam takers.

COVID-19 brought a massive shift to the teaching and learning practices in higher education in Bangladesh. Although many universities in Bangladesh have started hybrid education, including both online and offline education styles, many students still need help with this hybrid process. The study aimed to evaluate the modifications made to teaching and learning strategies due to COVID-19 and to find the prospect of a shift towards Hybrid course delivery in higher education in Bangladesh. The study followed a quantitative method where the data collection was done through a close ended questionnaire using multistage sampling consisting of both stratified and simple random sampling. Students from 20 universities, whether public or private participated in this study. The study stratified the data with 20 responses per university and analysed 400 responses. The data was analysed using SPSS software for descriptive statistics, cross tabulation and chi square test. By conducting the Chi-square test (p> 0.05), the overall results of the study revealed that the universities conducting online classes, exams during the pandemic or not have no significant impact on the students preferring a hybrid course delivery. This is because the wave of digitalization has spread and made students accustomed to online education, courses and teaching platforms making them believe that Hybrid course delivery is a unique opportunity to combine the best aspects of both in-person and online learning, address the limitations of traditional classroom models, is cost effective and more flexible. The findings of this study will assist addressing the existing research vacuum in this field and help policymakers, administrators, educators, academicians, University Grant Commission (UGC) authorities, related ministries, and university authorities to rethink the process of Higher Education in Bangladesh.

Authors: Madodi Mussa 
Published: January 2025

Despite the Tanzanian Government’s efforts in promoting its Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) to address problems facing their surrounding communities, the strategy has insufficiently institutionalized to bring the expected results. This study is an endeavor to have an assessment of Community Engagement Program which was established as among the strategies of stimulating the Community Development Training Institutes (CDTIs) and Community Development Technical Training (CDTTIs) to perform their Social Responsibilities. A cross- sectional research design was adopted to obtain a sample of 160 respondents. Data were collected using Questionnaires, Key Informants’ Interview (KII) and Focus Group Discussions (FGDs) methods and analyzed by using SPSS and content analysis. The study revealed that, financial budget allocated to facilitate the program operations is insufficient. Subsequently the insufficient budget is negatively influencing the program implementers to find shortcuts in following the program operational procedures as a result some of the felt needs of the intended beneficiaries are precluded. Moreover, the program’s undertakings are inadequately disclosed to attract support from other potential development partners. In order for the program to effectively accomplish the ideal objective of its establishment, it is recommended the government in collaboration with other stakeholders to mobilize and inject sufficient financial and other related resources.
