Exploring the Potential of Soy-Based Materials: Sustainable Textile Design and Apparel Production
Get PDFThis study investigated the potential of soy-based materials as a sustainable alternative in fashion design, focusing on creating textiles using batik techniques. The process involved producing soymilk, bonding pigments, repurposing soy pulp, employing batik methods, and enhancing textures with soy fibers. The resulting sample showcased a visually captivating moth motif on soy textile, demonstrating soy materials\u27 aesthetic and environmental potential. The findings affirm the viability of soy textiles in fashion, offering a biodegradable, renewable option with reduced water and chemical usage compared to traditional materials. Further research is recommended to explore additional design applications and commercial feasibility, contributing to the growing field of sustainable fashion practices
Wayne E. Sabbe Arkansas Soil Fertility Studies 2023
Get PDFRapid technological changes in crop management and production require that the research efforts be presented in an expeditious manner. The contributions of soil fertility and fertilizers are major production factors in all Arkansas crops. The studies described within will allow producers to compare their practices with the university’s research efforts. Additionally, soil-test data and fertilizer sales are presented to allow comparisons among years, crops, and other areas within Arkansas
Administrators’ Views of Teacher Salary Changes Under the Arkansas LEARNS Act
Get PDFWe surveyed superintendents and principals statewide to understand their perspectives on the salary changes they implemented in response to the LEARNS Act and their future plans related to teacher compensation. Administrators reported that the teacher compensation changes required by the LEARNS Act are likely to help them better recruit and retain teachers. The primary goals administrators reported they have when designing teacher compensation include: being competitive with nearby districts, retaining existing teachers, and rewarding effective teachers. Administrators anticipate offering across-the-board pay increases but also appear open to implementing bonuses for effective teachers in their district. Most administrators, 69% of principals and 67% of superintendents, report that their district will likely continue to use traditional salary schedules over the next three years, but a sizable proportion (22% of superintendents and 13% of principals) report that this is very unlikely. This may indicate that a relatively large number of districts in Arkansas are considering alternative teacher compensation plans. The primary barriers that district leaders identified to making substantial changes to teacher compensation were related to funding uncertainty. State leaders and policymakers should address this uncertainty and provide compensation design support if they want to promote new and more creative teacher compensation approaches
