Analysis Of The Characteristics Ngremo Munali Fatah Dance Movement: A Mixed Method Approach To Cultural Preservation
No full textNgremo Munali Fatah Dance is a traditional East Javanese dance that has cultural and aesthetic values. This study identifies the differences in motion characteristics in Ngremo Munali Fatah Dance for autodidact and didactic dancers, using Laban Movement Analysis (Shape) and biomechanics through motion capture as an effort to preserve culture. This research uses Rudolf Laban's theory of Laban Movement Analysis (LMA) Shape. This research uses Mixed Methods Research (Exploratory Sequential Design). Qualitative data was collected through LMA Shape to record differences in dance movement characteristics of autodidact and didactic dancers. Quantitative data was obtained from biomechanical analysis using motion capture. The results showed that Ngremo Munali Fatah Dance movement has distinctive characteristics between autodidact and didactic dancers, (1) measurement of biomechanical parameters such as joint angle, velocity and acceleration, and strength, (2) gesture, and (3) cultural preservation. This research makes an important contribution to preserving East Javanese culture by documenting the characteristics of traditional dance movements in detail and accurately. The results of this research can be used as dance learning materials, choreographic development, and cultural documentation
Lusaka residents' perceptions of the creation of Munali Girls High School out of Munali Secondary School
No full textLargely employing the qualitative methodology, the study reports the perceptions of some Lusaka residents on the creation of Munali Girls High School out of Munali Secondary School. The study reveals participants' perceptions; the most reported being the fact of providing a High School for girls around Munali area. Some former pupils of Munali Secondary School charged that in creating a girls' school out of Munali Secondary School, the philosophy of 'One Zambia One Nation' had been overlooked because in its original slate, the school had brought pupils from different parts of Zambia. Former pupils and some participants who had never been to Munali Secondary School argued that the school was the first government secondary school, which should have been left untouched for historical reasons. Achimota High School in Ghana was the point of reference for the participants in the research who argued against the splitting of the school. Teachers at the Girls High School deplored the unequal sharing of the infrastructure, the unbecoming behaviour of the girls and the poor grade twelve results recorded by the school. In concluding the study a recommendation has been made to the effect that brand new schools for girls in Lusaka ought to be built while Munali Girls High School and Munali Boys High School receive a face lift through rehabilitation and building of additional structures and that this restoration should be followed up with a declaration of the two schools as heritage site

Awareness of child protection among children in selected schools in Munali constituency Lusaka.
Full text linkMaster of Arts Degree in Development StudiesThis study aimed at assessing children’s level of awareness on child protection in Munali Constituency. The objectives that guided the study were: to examine the knowledge children in Munali Constituency have on child protection; to explore sources of knowledge on child protection among children in Munali Constituency and to establish the [in]adequacy of knowledge on child protection among children in Munali Constituency.
This study was anchored by positivism and interpretivism, a mixed methods approach was used to help the research findings be meaningfully explained. The sample size for the total population was 328 using probability sampling. 34 (30 pupils and 4 key informants) participants were selected using non-probability sampling from Kalingalinga, Chakunkula and Chamba Valley Primary School’s. Data was collected using questionnaires, a focus group discussion guide and interview guides.
The main findings of this study was that the levels of awareness of child protection among children in the selected schools in Munali Constituency was low. Children had little knowledge on child protection and had no idea how to protect themselves from abuse. Children who heard about child protection mentioned that they heard about it from school which was the highest source of knowledge mentioned at 31.1%. Majority of the children admitted that they were only hearing about it and what it encompasses the day of the data collection. 82.32% mentioned that they needed to learn more on child protection because the knowledge they had on child protection was inadequate.
The study concluded that the lack of proper in-depth information on child protection as well as safe spaces to report cases of abuse are the major explanations for the low levels of awareness in Munali Constituency. The study suggested that children need undergo extensive education of children’s rights in protecting themselves and improving awareness. There is also need to provide proper and safe channels for children to be able to report any abuse without fear.

Sexual behaviours and vulnerabilities to HIV: A case study of the hearing and visually impaired puipls of Munali boys and Munali girls High Schools in Lusaka
No full textAn institutional data set at Munali Boys and Munali Girls High Schools was showing an unknown gravity of HIV and sexual behaviours among the visually and hearing impaired pupils. Lack of information on the prevalence and factors associated with HIV/AIDS infection among the disabled had led to under estimations of the problem of HIV and risky sexual behaviours. This study sought to: (i) determine the proportion of the visually and hearing impaired pupils who are HIV positive, (ii) determine the risky sexual behaviours among the visually and hearing impaired pupils (iii) determine possible associations of risky sexual behaviors and (iv) explore a possible institutionalised model that could be used to initiate health promotion and HIV prevention among the visually and hearing impaired pupils of Munali Boys and Munali Girls High Schools.
This was an exploratory descriptive cross-sectional study was employed. The setting of this study was a pupil sample of 51 from five streams - grade 8 to 12 was recruited into the study randomly.
The study found that within the study population, only 4 teenagers among the hearing and visually impaired pupils (2 males and 2 females) said they were HIV positive and 19 said they were HIV negative and all these hearing and visually impaired pupils were teenagers. The other 28 hearing and visually impaired pupils did not know their sero status. The self-report sero prevalence in this study was 7%. The visually and hearing impaired pupils at Munali boys and Munali girls high schools are a subpopulation of youths and adolescents at particularly high risk for HIV/AIDS and sexually transmitted infections due to numerous barriers including language, hearing, being physically defenseless, requiring attendant care to receive protection from being abused sexually, sexual behaviours that are determined largely by people other than themselves, careless exposure to sexual diseases, early engagement into sex and none use of condoms. There was no significant difference in knowing one's HIV status by age group (p = 0.200) and not even by sex (p = 0. 347). Being a girl was associated with significant vulnerabilities and risky behaviours.
The picture at Munali Boys and Munali Girls High Schools is not different from reports elsewhere that HIV/AIDS is of immediate concern to the disabled populations. This study suggests that significant prevention can be gained for the visually and hearing impaired pupils by using Jessor's theoretical model and special attention should be paid to female pupils. Important issues should be given priority by the Ministries of Education and Health when designing curricular, school health services and particularly emphasizing counseling and testing while expanding treatment for HIV and sexually transmitted infections

Full text linkThesisThis study explored the academic performance of learners with hearing impairment at Munali Secondary School, Zambia. The following specific objectives guided the study: (i) describe academic performance of learners with hearing impairment at Munali secondary school, (ii) explore challenges affecting academic performance of learners with hearing impairment at Munali Secondary School, and (iii) suggest strategies for improving academic performance of learners with hearing impairment at Munali Secondary School. A qualitative case study was applied. The instruments in data generation were structured interview guide and observation check list. Data was generated from 14 participants; 1 head of department – special education, 7 teachers for learners with hearing impairment, and 6 learners with hearing impairment. All the participants were sampled using the purposive sampling procedure.
The study found that learners with hearing impairment at Munali under-performed academically. The challenges that affected the academic performance were: Language deficit and language delay; unfriendly curriculum; teachers’ incompetence in the language of instruction (Sign Language); and lack of teaching and learning materials in Sign Language. It also explored strategies that would improve the academic performance of learners with hearing impairment at Munali Secondary School. The strategies included: early identification and assessment; conducting Continuous Professional Development meetings to improve sign language; improved training of teachers for learners with hearing impairment in colleges and universities in sign language; and preparing learning and teaching materials in sign language. The findings offer insight into the academic performance of learners with hearing impairment at Munali Secondary School, the challenges affecting academic performance and the strategies that would improve the academic performance.The University of Zambi

DEVELOPMENT OF STUDENT PERFORMANCE ASSESSMENT
BASED ON HOTS ESSAY ITEMS ON MATHEMATICS LESSONS
MUNALI
Education Research and Evaluation
ABSTRACT
One of the tools used to assess students in higher order thinking skills (HOTS) is a student performance assessment. On average, educators have difficulty in developing HOTS-based student performance assessment writing in Mathematics. This is a challenge for researchers to contribute to the development of HOTS-based student performance assessments. The assessment includes: 1) assessment of student performance based on Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTS) and 2) rubric used for scoring student performance. The development of the HOTS-based student performance assessment is a synthesis of the operational verbs of three Taxonomies, namely: Revised Bloom's Taxonomy, Marzano's Taxonomy, and SOLO's Taxonomy. The development of the HOTS-based student performance assessment resulted in 11 operational verbs using the SOLO Taxonomy.
The purpose of this study was to produce a HOTS-based student performance assessment product 20 valid items. This research approach uses a quantitative approach and a Research and Development (R and D) methodology. Data analysis using the Rasch Measurement Model. The research sample was 722 high school students in South, Central, East, and North Jakarta.
The results of the study using the Rasch Model measurement: 1) the reliability score of the special items was 0.99; 2) Cronbach's Alpha score in very good category is 0.92; all items are valid; 3) the person reliability score in the good category is 0.89; 4) a person measure of -0.10 logit which indicates the student's ability is less than the item difficulty level standard; 5) item probability score > 5% so that all items are not detected by DIF; 6) and the measurement information function shows respondents with moderate ability. Based on these results, it can be concluded that the HOTS-based student performance assessment based on the SOLO Taxonomy is valid.

The nature and genesis of the Munali nickel sulfide deposit, Zambia
No full textThe Munali Ni-(Cu-Co-PGE) deposit is located within the Zambezi Belt in southern Zambia, and appears to represent a conduit-hosted sulfide ‘breccia’ deposit, situated along the Munali Fault. However, Munali displays many atypical features including abundant carbonate that question the applicability of traditional models of magmatic sulfide genesis. This work highlights how carbon, either as a primary mantle-sourced component, or a crustally-derived contaminant, can play an important role in the transport, generation and style of magmatic sulfides.The Munali complex comprises a dynamic suite of mafic-ultramafic rocks emplaced at ~860 Ma, with sequential emplacement of magmas with increasing MgO and FeO contents that include gabbro and (Cr-poor apatite-bearing) clinopyroxenite, wehrlite and metasomatic ‘replacive’ dunite, emplaced during the initiation of Zambezi rifting. Thin S- and evaporite-rich limestone units adjacent to the Munali Fault provided favorable pathways for ascending mantle-derived magmas. Pervasive interaction and assimilation of S and CO2 were critical in promoting magnetite crystallisation and the formation of carbonate and sulfide melts.Mineralisation is characterised by an unusually Ni-Fe-dominant massive sulfide, comprised of pyrrhotite>>pentlandite ± chalcopyrite ± pyrite, associated with abundant magmatic-hydrothermal carbonate-apatite-magnetite. Sulfide represents one of the youngest intrusive phases, present as a series of elongate lenses (0.5-30 m thick) that infiltrated the Munali Complex as a density-driven slurry, causing localised brecciation of the host mafic-ultramafic rocks. Sulfide displays extremely variable Ni/Cu ratios (0.1-71.5), moderate to high Pd/IrN ratios (~150-3500) and negative Cu and Au anomalies, primarily as a consequence of fractional crystallisation of the sulfide liquid during mobilisation, resulting in the segregation and crystallisation of Ni-Fe sulfide and the continued migration of a residual Cu-rich sulfide liquid.The Munali Complex shows indications of significant post-emplacement metamorphism during the Pan African Orogeny, with deformation of host rocks and potential for late-stage remobilisation of Cu and Au. As such, Munali represents a complex igneous system resulting from a range of syn- and post-magmatic processes.</div
