PERSPECTIVES ON INCLUSION. MINI RESEARCH CARRIED OUT WITHIN THE TRAINING PROGRAM ,,EDUCATION IN THE SCHOOL FOR ALL”: 10.24250/jpe/1/2025/EMU/AFR
Recently, reforms and legislative initiatives in the field ofeducation place an increasing emphasis on providing equallearning opportunities to all individuals. Education for all hasbecome a major priority of educational systems, being centeredon equity, participation and respect for diversity. As a trainer inthe training program entitled ,,Education in school for all”, Iundertook a mini-research on inclusive institutional culturesduring March 2022. The mentioned training program, approvedby OMEC no. 3189/ 07.02.2020, with a number of 25transferable credits, was developed by the House of the TeachersBody of Bihor County and aimed at the following skills: thedevelopment and expansion of transversal skills regardinginteraction and communication with the social environment andthe pedagogical environment, assuming responsibilities on organizing, leading and improving the strategic performance ofprofessional groups, self-control and reflective analysis of one'sown activity and others. The paper presents a mini-researchbased on the analysis and interpretation of the data obtainedfollowing the application of a questionnaire to one of the groupsof teachers who participated in the program "Education in theschool for all"
IMPACTS OF INDUSTRIAL DISHARMONY ON TERTIARY INSTITUTIONS IN NIGERIA: 10.24250/jpe/1/2025/CG/OPO/AM/
The issue of disharmony in Nigerian tertiary institutions hasbecome a significant challenge, affecting academic quality,institutional stability, and national development. This paperexamines the various cases and underlying causes of disharmonywithin Nigerian universities, polytechnics, and colleges ofeducation. Through a critical review of the literature andempirical data, the paper highlights the adverse impacts ofdisharmony, such as reduced academic productivity, a decline inthe quality of graduates, infrastructural decay, and loss of publictrust in higher education. The study argues that addressingdisharmony requires collaborative efforts between government,management of institutions, staff unions, and students. Bypromoting inclusivity, strengthening institutional autonomy, andensuring effective conflict management mechanisms, Nigeriantertiary institutions can foster a more harmonious andproductive academic environment
THE FORMATIVE DIMENSIONS OF COOPERATIVE LEARNING: 10.24250/jpe/1/2025/MIA/
Cooperative learning is a pedagogical approach that involvespupils and students working together to achieve common goalsor accomplish group tasks. The efficacy of cooperative learningas a pedagogical practice is widely acknowledged, with evidenceindicating its capacity to facilitate socialisation and learningamong students at all levels, from kindergarten to university, andacross diverse subject areas. The approach emphasises theimportance of pupils and students working together as aunifiedteam in a collaborative and supportive environment. Thisenables them to provide constructive feedback, enhance theirexisting knowledge, engage in active and creative thinking, andnegotiate solutions collectively. When teachers structureactivities in small groups, pupils/ students are more interactive,using more equitable communication so that ideas are sharedbetween group members and they develop more ideas to explainthe problem at hand. The fact that pupils and students interactand work together not only enables them to learn from eachother, but also allows them to accept more autonomy over thetasks they have to accomplish and the decisions they have tomake. Research also shows that students have a lot to learn whenthey have opportunities to interact with each other, listen to whatothers have to say, share ideas and information, ask questions,critique others' ideas, and use the information to reason andsolve problems together
CHEMISTRY STUDENTS' AWARENESS, ACCESSIBILITY AND UTILIZATION OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE IN COLLEGES OF EDUCATION IN SOUTHWEST NIGERIA: 10.24250/jpe/si/2025/AAU/MFA/HOA/
This study investigated Chemistry students’ awareness,accessibility and utilization of artificial intelligence (AI)in Colleges of Education in South-West Nigeria. The studywas guided by three research questions and threehypotheses. This study adopted descriptive surveyresearch design. The population consisted of 834Chemistrystudents from five Federal College of Education, with apurposive sample of 340 students (94 males,246females) from three Colleges of Education. Students’awareness, accessibility and utilization of artificialintelligence for learning Chemistry (SAAUAILC)adapted from Enebechi et al. (2024) and Zudonu et al.(2024) was the instrument used for data collection. Theinstrument was validated by three experts in relevantareas. The internal consistency reliability index ofSAAUAILC was established as 0.80 using CronbachAlpha. Mean and standard deviation were used to answerresearch questions while t-test was used to test thehypotheses at 0.05 level of significance. Findings ofthe study revealed that there are low level of awareness,accessibility and utilization of AI resources amongstChemistry students. Gender had no significant influence on Chemistry Students' awareness, accessibility andutilization of artificial intelligence. Based on thefindings of the study, it was recommended amongstothers that government should organize workshops,conferences and seminars in Colleges of Educationfor increased students’ sensitization and integration of AIin learning Chemistry
SimTwo Realistic Simulator: A Tool for the Development and Validation of Robot Software
Many times the simulation environment is an ad hoc implementation done with the single purpose of testing the author’s algorithm or methodology.It is not diffcult to find that the accuracy of the simulation is low and mostly unable to reflect the real world. While, under certaincircumstances, that can be a valid approach there is the need of a simulation environment where the focus is on the physical realism while retaininga lot of configurability so that it can be adapted to a lot of different uses. In this paper it is presented a simulation environment where multiplekinds of robots can be modeled. The robots can be modeled based on a network of physical bodies interconnected by joints that can be powered,or not, by electrical motors. The corresponding low level controllers and the high level decision or IA can also be implemented in the simulationenvironment. To achieve that, some established open source libraries like the Open Dynamics Engine are used. The parameters for the physicalsimulation are all accessible when defining the robot model and a very accurate motor model can also be implemented. There is also the ability touse external modules to implement the high level controllers
On Lambda-Zweier Convergent Sequence Spaces
In this paper we introduce a new concept of Lambda-Zweier convergence and Lambda-statistical Zweier convergence and give some relations between these two kinds of convergence
Approach Merotopies and Associated Near Sets
This article introduces associated near sets of a collection of sets. The proposed approach introduces a meansof defining as well as describing an e-approach merotopy in terms of the members of associated sets of collectionsthat are sufficiently near. A characterization for continuous functions is established using associated near sets. Thisarticle also introduces p-containment considered in the context of near sets. An application of the proposed approachis given in terms of digital image classification
On Ideal Convergent Difference Double Sequence Spaces in n-Normed Spaces Defined by Orlicz Function
The main aim of this paper is to define the generalized difference double sequence spaces 2W^I(M, ||.||, ..., ||.||, D_m^n, p), 2W_0^I(M, ||.||, ..., ||.||, D_m^n, p) and 2W_infinity^I(M, ||.||, ..., ||.||, D_m^n, p) defined over an n-normed space (X, ||.||, ..., ||.||). Here we also study their properties and establish some inclusion relations
Coefficient Estimates for New Subclasses of m-Fold Symmetric Bi-univalent Functions
In this paper, we introduce and investigate two subclasses A_m (lambda; alpha) and A_m (lambda; beta) of Sigma_m consisting of analytic and m-fold symmetric bi-univalent functions in the open unit disc U. For functions in each of the subclasses introduced in this paper, we obtain the coefficient bounds for |a_m+1| and |a_2m+1|
On the Growth of Solutions of Higher Order Complex Differential Equations with Finite [p, q]-Order
In this paper, we study the growth of entire solutions of higher order linear complex differential equations with entire coefficients of finite [p, q]-order. We give another condition that generalizes some results due to (Belaïdi, 2015), (Liu et al., 2010) and (Li & Cao, 2012)
