The Landslide Threat Evaluation and Zoning in The Birbir Mariam District, Gamo Highlands, Ethiopia Great Rift Valley Escarpment Using Slope Susceptibility Analysis and Geospatial Techniques
Authors: Oyda Yonas , Berhane Gebremedhin , Regasa Hailu 
Published: January 2024

The current research focuses on landslide assessment and hazard zonation in the Birbir Mariam district of the Gamo Highlands. The study examined landslide causative factors and used the slope susceptibility evaluation parameter to create a landslide hazard zonation covering an area of 110 square kilometers. The landslide hazard zonation was classified using facet-wise observation. As a result, the intrinsic and external causal parameters of score schemes have been held responsible for slope instability. Inherent causative elements consist of slope geometry, slope material (rock or soil), structural discontinuities, land use or land cover, and groundwater conditions. Rainfall and human interest have seemed like external elements. The intrinsic and external triggering elements for every facet (a total of 106) were rated for their contribution to slope instability. Finally, an evaluated landslide hazard value was calculated and classified into three landslide hazard classes. According to the findings, the area has a high hazard zone of 18.87 percent (20.76 km2), a moderate hazard zone of 54.72 percent (60.19 km2), and a low hazard zone of 26.41 percent (29.05 km2). The methodology employed in this investigation, as well as the resulting landslip susceptibility zonation map, were both reliable and applicable to other places with similar geology and topographic circumstances.

Authors: Erviany Nunung 
Published: January 2024

Kekurangan energi kronik merupakan kondisi yang disebabkan karena adanya ketidakseimbangan asupan gizi antara energi dan protein, sehingga zat gizi yang dibutuhkan tubuh tidak tercukupi. Tujuan pengabdian masyarakat agar ibu-ibu termotivasi dalam menjaga kenaikan berat badan dan pencegahan kekurangan energi kronik (kek) lebih dini di Desa Tottong Tahun 2023. Metode pelaksanaannya dibagi menjadi tiga tahap. Pertama menyiapkan kegiatan dilokasi penyuluhan dan tahap kedua menyiapkan ibu hamil dengan bekerja sama dengan pihak puskesmas, pemerintahan desa dan ibu kader. Kegiatan ini dihadiri 10 ibu hamil yang bermasalah dengan nilai pretes 52,6% dan nilai post tes 84,2%. Ibu hamil ini memiliki tingkat pengetahuan yang kurang terkait kenaikan berat badan selama hamil. Hasil kegiatan ini disimpulkan bahwa tingkat kematangan umur dan kekuatan seseorang yang dianggap cukup akan lebih matang dalam berfikir, sedangkanjika umur responden masih muda maka tingkat kematangan berpikirnya juga kurang. Berdasarkan pendidikan terakhir sebagian besar yaitu 64,1% responden dengan pendidikan SMP dan tidak ada yang tamat perguruan tinggi. Hal ini sesuai dengan hasil penelitian yang menyatakan bahwa ibu hamil yang baik Sebagian besar dengan Pendidikan Sarjana, dengan demikian rendahnya tingkat pendidikan dapat menyebabkan rendahnya pengetahuan dan keterbatasan dalam mendapatkan informasi mengenai cara mencegah stunting pada ibu hamil.

Authors: Mwakamele Imani M. 
Published: January 2024

Quality assurance is inevitable in school assessment for the improvement of education since; the best school assessment is the tool to understand the skills and competences which the student has acquired through teaching and learning process. The skills and competences acquired will help the student to exist in the era of rapid change. Therefore, the Quality assurance should focus on enhancing and improving the process that is used to prepare the assessment, rather than focusing on the result itself. The study highlights the principles of assessment which include validity, reliability, transparency, inclusivity and equitability, relevance, manageable and practicable in ensuring the quality of assessment in school assessment. The study was conducted in ten (5) government schools and ten (5) private schools in Dar-es-Salaam Region. The study used survey methodology to collect primary data. A total of sixty-four (64) teachers participated in the research. Data were collected through questionnaire. The result showed that Teachers were found to assess students mainly for assigning grades rather than assessing for learning. Furthermore, the findings from the study revealed that teachers had inadequate knowledge in the area of assessment principles and quality assurance in assessment. It was also found that large classes and teaching workloads affected the quality of assessment in schools. However, for ensuring the quality of school assessment, the study recommends that, teachers should get refresher courses on the principles of assessment in order to equip them with the effective assessment skills. It is also suggested that the teaching process especially in the area of assessment be monitored closely by the inspectorate division in order to ensure its quality.

Published: January 2024

This study investigated types of misspellings ofSwahilized English loanwords made by form learners in Kiswahili functional writing in public secondary schools in NyamiraCounty, Kenya. This study was guided by Corder’s Error Analysis Theory (1967). A total of 326 participants of equal gender proportion sampled from 8 public secondary schools in Nyamira County were involved in the study. All 326 participants wrote a Kiswahili functional essay that provided data for the study. Descriptive research design was used in carrying out this study.The descriptive statistics (frequencies and percentages) were used in conformity with five stages of erroranalysis asputforward byCorder (1967). The study found that learners committed five categories ofSwahilized Englishloanwords in theirKiswahili functional essays. The misspellings were:preservation (33.3%), addition (30.3 %), substitution (27.1 %) omission (6.2%)and split (3.1%). The study recommends the following: a) special attention be paid to the teaching of preservation, deletion, insertion and substitutionmisspellingsas they relate to therephonologization of English loanwords adapted into Kiswahili b) teachers of Kiswahili language need toemploy instructional methods and media which enrich learners’ understanding of the process of adapting English loanwords into Kiswahili c)pronunciation and spelling of loanwords be taught concurrently for they are symbiotic and reinforce each other d) an English –Kiswahili borrowings adaptation model be designed by Kiswahili and English phonologists,semanticists and teachers of Kiswahili to enhance learners’ understanding of how the process is carried out in relation to the three phonological processes; deletion ,insertion and substitution.

Authors: J Kapufi, P. , C Ngirwa, C. 
Published: January 2024

In recent years, the academic performance in community secondary schools has been declining with tremendous enrolment of students. Researchers have highlighted different causes for such poor performance. The purpose of this study was to explore the contribution of private study on day scholarsâ€™ academic performance in community secondary schools. The study was conducted in Tabora region, particularly Uyui District, located in the central western part of Tanzania Mainland. In the process, descriptive crosssectional research design and a mixed research approaches were the major means of data collection and analyses. Data collection was done through questionnaires, focus group discussion and interview. The study sample comprised students (N=207) both poor and good performers among form four members, heads of schools (N=5) all from 5 secondary schools and parents (N=5). The study findings revealed that most day scholars did not have adequate private study time at home after school hours. This had probably contributed to their unsatisfactory academic performance that was observed among poor performers vis-Ã -vis good performers. Home climate had been identified as the critical challenge that faced most of day scholars in their private home study time. The poor performance of day scholars in community secondary schools can be attributed to inadequate private study time awhich has a direct link with home environment that support learning. Strategically, parents need to be educated on the future economic returns of education for their children that would help them create good home climate, which would support students learning after school hours.Â

Authors: Mushi Marwa, A., , K H. . M , V. Swai, E. 
Published: January 2024

Enhanced interactive learning through e-learning has been found to be an effective way to augment quality teaching and learning, however, there is still need to examine how students and academic staff perceive enhancement of interactive learning through e-learning in the presence of the challenges brought about by a growing number of students which exceed existing facilities and with an average of a lecturer student ratio of 1:20 compared to recommended ratio of 1:10 for natural sciences and 1:15 for social sciences. The purpose of this study was to investigate students and their teachersâ€™ perceptions of the use of e-learning for enhancing interactive learning and how such perceptions relate to the strategies employed to enhance interactive learning through e-learning in four selected higher learning institutions (HLIs) in Tanzania. The paper provides an account of efforts employed to enhance interactive learning at the Open University of Tanzania (OUT). the University of Dar es Salaam (UDSM). Muhimbili University of Health and Allied Sciences (MUHAS) and Mzumbe University (MU). This was achieved through descriptions of achievements realized challenges encountered and recommendations provided for practical steps to the interactive learning enhancement targets in selected HLIs. The study employed quantitative and qualitative methods to generate rich, contextual data from the four HLIs. Data were collected through semi structured questionnaires, in-depth interviews, documentary analysis, observations and content analysis administered to 256 students, 24 student, 12 instructors and four ICT administrators from the institutions. Data were analyzed using descriptive narratives percentages and charts. The study revealed that HLIs do not effectively employ strategies that would lead to enhanced interactive learning through e-learning. mainly due to the existence of differing perceptions by stakeholders regarding employing e-learning, which influence efforts to develop and employ appropriate strategies and efforts for students to engage in interactive learning. The varied perception further impacts policy design and implementation. This paper assists in informing HLIs intending to use e-leaning for purposes of enhancing interactive learning which is considered by the researchers as one of the most effective processes for enhancing interactive learning.Â Â
