This study investigates the factors which are computer self-efficacy, perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, user satisfaction, personal innovativeness, and attitude that influence intention to use e-learning management systems among 500 vulnerable women attending non-profit organizations in developing countries. Employing a quantitative research design, the study involved the distribution of self-administered questionnaires to the target population for data collection. The index of item-objective congruence (IOC), pilot testing, Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA), and Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) were employed to analyze the data to conclude research findings. The study confirmed the hypotheses concerning the significant influence of computer self-efficacy, attitude, user satisfaction, and personal innovativeness on the Intention to use e-learning systems. However, the hypotheses related to the influence of perceived ease of use, perceived usefulness, and the relationship between perceived usefulness and attitude were not supported in this study. In conclusion, findings highlight attitude's significance, necessitating positive technology views. Personal innovativeness and computer self-efficacy emerge as key, emphasizing tailored training. User satisfaction's role in adoption and user-centric design's importance for intuitive platforms were underscored. Contrary to expectations, ease of use's impact was complex. This research guides e-learning implementation in non-profits, promoting empowerment through education for beneficiaries of a non-profit organization.

The undergraduate enrollment rate is rapidly increasing. Many students want advice on their journey to graduation. The students are unfamiliar with the major sheets and academic timetable of the university where they have enrolled. Thus, a model that handles the advising process for students who are unclear about how to choose their courses must be designed. This study provides a model for an academic adviser who may help students navigate their university experience. The model recommends a list of courses to the student depending on his current study level and categorizes the major sheet's courses by difficulty, which varies from easy to challenging based on previous exam results. Lastly, with so many students, the suggested model can assist in automating the advising process without requiring a lot of work.

This study rigorously analyzes the attributes of technical-vocational graduates in the Maasim, Sarangani Province, emphasizing their skills, curriculum completion, employability, and correlation with college course enrollment. The study employed a purposive sampling method to survey 119 participants from three senior high schools. A descriptivecorrelational study methodology was utilized to evaluate the correlations between the graduates' profiles and the important factors. The results indicated no substantial association among competency, employability, the finished track, and the students' current college courses. The National Career Assessment Examination (NCAE) demonstrated a substantial correlation with the alignment of students' selected college courses. This indicates that the choice of senior high school tracks ought to be based on the outcomes of the NCAE, the High School Occupational Inventory of Interest, and the National Career Achievement Examination. The research reveals that students selecting pathways closely matched with their prospective college courses, especially the General Academic Strand and Humanities and Social Sciences, are more favorably positioned for future professional success. This highlights the necessity for a comprehensive and data-informed methodology in the selection of senior high school tracks, guaranteeing congruence with students' academic and occupational objectives. The study emphasizes the shortcomings of providing educational courses simply based on the geographic location of schools, indicating that programs in remote locations, such as agriculture and technical-vocational education, may insufficiently equip students for higher education. This misalignment can pose difficulties for students transitioning to more demanding academic programs, highlighting the necessity of a curriculum that facilitates both short-term and long-term academic and career goals.

The Songkhla Lake Basin is one of rapid economic growth region, with associated discharges of waste products and conflicts of land use change. This study aims to investigate water quality and develop a statistical model for estimating when water quality conditions are conducive given Chlorophyll-a concentration exceeds 10 mg/l. The model is based on multivariate correlations between Chlorophyll-a concentration and limnological characteristics, season, climatic factors and water quality parameters from official data at 25 stations around Songkhla Lake collected by the National Institute of Coastal Aquaculture (NICA), Department of Fisheries of Thailand, from March 1992 to December 2003. The resultant forecasting model gave an r-squared of 50.5% and statistically significant associations with Lake Zone, season, climatic factors (air temperature and rainfall) and water quality parameters (temperature, salinity, dissolved oxygen, pH, transparency, total organic carbon, orthophosphate and ammonia). This model can provide a practical lake management tool for eutrophication surveillance. Furthermore, the study raised the problem of high potential risk and exceeding the relevant the surface water standards of some water quality parameter. We suggest that environmental awareness among the public is the first key to success in sustainable development of the Songkhla Lake Basin.

The growing global demand for tertiary education has led to the increased use of e-learning approaches around the world. Demand has increased most rapidly in low and middle income countries (LMICs), which account for half of the students currently enrolled in higher educational institutions (HEIs). But the implementation of e-learning programmes in resource-constrained settings faces many obstacles. This paper explores some of the key issues involved in implementation of e-learning in HEIs involved in the education of health professionals, given the resource constraints within which many institutions have to function. We present case studies of three such LMIC institutions of varying size and primary purpose. The paper suggests use of appropriate ICT infrastructure, both in terms of hardware and software, combined with effective access and bandwidth management policies is crucial to the successful implementation of e-learning courses on health within HEIs based in LMICs.

This study compared the effect of Virtual Laboratory Experimentation (VLE)-use of virtual apparatus and material to conduct an experiment on a computer-and Real Laboratory Experimentation (RLE)-use of real apparatus and material to conduct an experiment in a laboratory-on undergraduate student teachers' understanding of electric circuits. A pre-post comparison study design was used for this purpose that involved an experimental (45 students) and a control group (43 students). Both groups used the same instructional method (inquiry) and instructional material (Physics by Inquiry-McDermott, 1996). However, participants in the control group used RLE to conduct the study's experiments in a physics laboratory, whereas, participants in the experimental group used VLE to conduct the same experiments on a computer. Conceptual tests were administered to assess students' understanding of electric circuits both before and after the study. Results indicated that the use of VLE improved students' achievement and understanding more than RLE

In this study the benefits and considerations related to implementation of "Learning by Design" (LBD) method through a Web-based learning environment were investigated from the instructor`s perspective. LBD is a project based learning approach on the basis of case based reasoning and problem based learning approaches. The case course of the study, Foundations of Distance Education, was given in blended form containing faceto-face sessions and web based instructional activities. The students were assigned to design a course site within LBD approach. The information gathered from the instructor in three different semesters were evaluated and compared. The 2010 and 2011 summer implementations of the course had some differences in technical and administrative level. These modifications were led by the previous experiences from the former implementations of the course. The outcomes of these differences were also investigated. It was emphasized that the project work had as a positive effect on the students' learning. Taking role in the design of a course with iterative processes was accepted to be effective in learning of the subject. It was also mentioned that this type of LBD implementation required a technical support. It was observed that the instructor has the sole responsibility of maintaining the servers, besides being the instructor.

FADxPMI is a project aimed at supporting the evolution from a training system ®rmly based on the face-to-face approach into one where Open and Distance Learning (ODL) techniques are widely used, especially to reach the sta of SMEs at their workplace. Within this project, the development of knowhow among course designers and trainers in the design of distance training events was achieved through a course called Design of Distance Training. This paper focuses on this course and discusses its design principles as well as the problems related to the development and implementation of courses of this kind. The Design of Distance Training course covered a wide range of ODL techniques and, since participants themselves were mostly SMEs sta members, it provided an interesting picture of the kind of problems that may be faced in developing distance training for SMEs. Among these, the most important issue concerns the compatibility of training and job commitments. The low degree of acquaintance with the new methods can also be a problem, especially at the beginning. In spite of these problems, the course managed to boost the desired process of introducing ODL techniques in SME training and to raise awareness among participants about the main positive and negative features of these methods.

provocó cambios en diferentes áreas universitarias, una de esas áreas son las bibliotecas. La digitalización de documentos llevó a replantear las herramientas utilizadas para la búsqueda de información, dando surgimiento a las hoy conocidas Bibliotecas Digitales. Generalmente, debido a la cantidad de información que cuentan estas bibliotecas, realizar una consulta resulta una tarea tediosa que consume una considerable cantidad de tiempo. Esta problemática podría solucionarse con la incorporación de agentes inteligentes que mediante una red bayesiana filtren y seleccionen la información, acorde con lo solicitado por el usuario, pero teniendo en cuenta también sus gustos y preferencias.

2024, Sustainable Use and Development of Watersheds

Sustainable use and development of watersheds become a major target of the national, European and global strategies and policies for sustainable development. This is based on recognition that: (i) the lotic and lentic systems are major components of the biophysical structure of natural capital which play a key role in providing a wide range of resources (e.g. water, food resources) and services (e.g. flood detention, recharging and discharging aquifers; nutrient retention and release, trace elements retention); (ii) the structure, water quality and their functions -production, regulation, information and support -were modified and degraded, in all EU countries (including Romania) in a proportion ranging between 50-90% (Castro et al., 2002; Nivet and Frazier, 2004; Revenga and Kura, 2003; Vadineanu et al., 2003); (iii) the water quality and the integrity or health of the lotic and lentic ecosystems are the results of long term integration of the cumulated stress of both human and natural pressures, acting at the watershed scales; (iv) there is a need to shift the former sectoral and reductionistic based management of water resources towards integrated/or ecosystem and adaptive management at the catchment scale (EU-WFD) and; (v) the management plans and decisions for sustainable use and development of watersheds have to rely on evaluation -in physical and monetary terms -of the impact of human pressures upon the water ecosystems structure and functions and, the quality and density of resources and services flows. Taking into consideration the above guiding requirements and the major social, political and economic changes emerged during more than 16 years of transition and negotiation of the EU accession and integration, the presentation is focused on the current status of the new emerging institutional, governing, legislative and administrative frameworks. A particular attention will be given to: (i) the 11 administrative units (hydrologic basins and watersheds) which cover the river network at the national scale; (ii) land use and landscape structure; (iii) water course 113

Virtual Learning Environments (VLE) do not use adaptive functions for their users, however, the Adaptive Learning Systems (ALS) use them to favor the learning processes of students. In order to perform the adaptation (customization) of the learning system is necessary to ask for the information of each student, and in such a sense, the learning styles are important characteristics that individually show the tendencies of students toward some strategies when learning. In this article we present the research process which was performed in order to provide adaptive characteristics to a representative VLE (MoodleTM), using interfaces for web services developed to evaluate learning styles, based on different properly-validated models, and recommending educational materials for each student, using as technique the Bayesian networks. The obtained results allowed to verify the effectiveness of this technological development, which has been tested with the students of a specific course.

This quasi-experimental research delved into the transformative potential of Generative AI-assisted writing tools, exemplified by ChatGPT, in enhancing the creative writing skills of eleventh-grade students within the Thai educational context. The study encompassed two primary objectives: 1) to assess the impact of Generative AI tools on students' creative writing skills before and after exposure during writing lessons; and 2) to compare the creative writing skills of students using Generative AI tools with those engaged in conventional teaching approaches. The research adopted a multi-stage sampling method, selecting 84 eleventh-grade students from a Thai secondary school, who were then divided into experimental (Generative AI-assisted) and controlled (conventional teaching) groups. The intervention involved the implementation of Generative AI Integrated Lesson Plans, integrating ChatGPT into the Communicative Language Teaching (CLT) approach. A parallel traditional teaching approach served as the controlled group. Creative writing skills were assessed through a 5-point scoring rubric before and after the intervention, covering aspects such as creativity, development, voice, literary devices, and literary conventions. The study employed statistical analyses, including paired sample t-tests and independent-samples ttests, to scrutinize the research hypotheses. Preliminary findings indicated a statistically significant enhancement in the creative writing skills of students exposed to Generative AI tools, supporting the efficacy of this technological intervention.

President passed pursuant to a resolution of Parliament supported by a majority of not less than two-thirds of the total numbers of members of parliament. on grounds of proved misbehaviour or incapacity." 1n7975, these provisions were changed by the fourth amendment to the constitution to provide for appointment and removal of judges bv the President. After several changes, the Chief fustice is norv appointed by the President as well as the judges, but they are also appointed bv him in consultation r,r,ith the Chief ]ustice. ... all appointrnenE as judges of the Supreme Cotut have in fact been made in coruultation with the Chief Justice. One deparhre rvas made Ln Februan', 199.1 rr,hen 9 Additional Judges were appointed to the High Court Dvision rvithout consultatron u'ith the Chief Justice. Foliowing a protes! the Notification rvas rescinded and fresh appoLntrnents were made, recognising in the fresh Notification itseif that the appointrnents were made rn corsultation w,ith the Chief Justice.2s As for removai of judges, Article 96 now provides that judges are removable on the ground of incapacity or gross misconduct on a report by the Supreme ]udicial Council consisting of the Chief ]ustice and the two next senior judges. The substituted provisions are perhaps better than the original ones, in that the grounds of .1JO Shahdeen Malik removal are on a more sophisticated plane and in that a Judge who holds a high constifutional post has now been saved from the ignominy of holding an office removable by the Chief Executive and has also been saved from the ignominy of a public exposure in a popular forum. The substituted provisions accord more with the constifutional scheme of separation of Powers. No Judge has however been removed from office following the procedure of Articie 96, but some judges have been removed under Martiai Law dispensation.25 Three cases involving interpretation of 'Part VI-The judiciary' have gradually enlarged judicial independence, though the principle of complete separation of Artide 22 is still to be realised. In Aftabuddin os Bangladesh" it was held that though the control (which includes the power of posting, promotion, leave, and discipline) of the subordinate judiciary vests with the President and the provision regarding exercise of such control "in consultation with the Supreme Court" needs to be understood and implemented literally, including transfer of judicial officers. Irr the more recent case of Bangladesh us ldrisur Rnhm"an" it was contended that the appointment of the Chief Metropolitan Magistrate of Dhaka, being a judicial post, ought to have been done in consultation with the supreme Court, as mandated by Article 716 of the Constitution. This contention of the petitioner Idrisur Rahman, an advocate of the Supreme Court, was accepted by the Appellate Division. It was held that: ... in appointing, giving promotion, granting leave and taking disciplinary action against any Magistrate, including the Chief Metropolitan Magistrate in question, exercising judicial functions, the President is under a constitutional obligation to consult the Supreme Court.ze Another judgement of much more far-reaching importis Secretary, Minis\ of Financeas Masdar Hossain'o in which the judicial service (Bangladesh Civil Service, judiciary) was claimed to be different from all other services under the republic. Therefore, the judiciary ought to be recruited and administered differently, and such administration of the judicial service should vest in the ]udiciary i.e., the supreme Court, and not the Executive branch of the govemment. Earlier, in Mujibur Rahman (Md.) os Goaernment of Bangladesh" it was held that both the Supreme Court and the subordinate courts are the repository of the judicial power of the state. Hence, functionally and struchually, the judicial service stands on a different level from the civil administrative executive services of the Republic.

Course server software is a general term for server capabilities enabling online teaching functions, including presentation of content, discussion groups, class management and related services. Some providers of education and training purchase a course server software package, for example WebCT, TopClass, Learning Space or others, whilst some develop their own, equivalent packages. Some organisations "outsource" the course server function, for example TechWorks, The Training Precinct and other companies provide this and related services. New kinds of relationships are emerging between owners of course servers, educational organisations and industry. This article reviews the use of these options in Australia, with special reference to technical features and how these interact with staff development, curriculum development, provision of network access and other elements in an integrated approach to online delivery. Course server software Amongst the technical services required for online learning, "course server software" is possibly the most specific, the most critical and the most "mysterious". Although the teaching functions required-presentation of content, formative and summative assessment, discussion groups, class management and related services-may be very familiar to lecturers and trainers, questions about "which technology" and "how to make it work" are likely to be mysterious "black box" matters for most people. However, several circumstances combine to give a degree of orderly structure to the question of "which" course server software:

New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT), a four-year polytechnic research university in the United States, utilized a participatory strategic planning process to implement an innovative approach to the delivery modes between face-to-face and online instruction. NJIT defines the spectrum of online and on-ground instruction integration as Converged Education. This spectrum allows students to participate face-to-face, join remotely through real-time video conferencing technology (synchronously), or watch classroom instruction asynchronously. The article opens with a general background of NJIT's approach to the new idea of converged instructional delivery. Then, the process of defining and clarifying the teims and conceptions of the various modes to be adopted is presented. Finally, the resulting implementation of the new policy and its reflection on course offerings is shown and discussed.
