Measuring University Students’ Satisfaction Level on their Courses Experiences
No full textThe objective of this study is to determine how satisfied students are with the course experiences provided by the learning facilities in Pakistani universities. This study looks into the factors of what they think is important for their learning environment, because students are the key stakeholders of the learning and education system. On the other hand, the missionary objectives of any university is to provide quality education and produce better alumni, because students’ achievements not only contribute to their scholastic development, but also build the reputation of an institution. Therefore, to measure the students’ satisfaction level of their course experiences, a self-structured survey questionnaire was used to collect the required data from students of different departments. A number of 141 master’s level students were identified from a local university. The data illustrated that the students’ satisfaction level in the provision of courses was low on given choices, like motivational characteristics, ICT application, and life-long learning skills; moderately satisfied for development of analytical and reflective thinking skills; and high level of satisfaction on all these elements except choices that have been reported of low importance
IMPLEMENTASI PARENTING DALAM MENINGKATKAN PEMAHAMAN ORANGTUA TERHADAP PENDIDIKAN SEKS ISLAMI SEJAK DINI ( STUDI KASUS PADA TK PLUS AL HUJJAH JEMBER )
No full textSex education is an important aspect in children's development, especially in the family context. This thesis aims to explore the implementation of Islamiic sex education as an effort to increase parents' understanding of sex education from an early age. In this research, the author used a qualitative method with a case study approach. The data sources for this research were parents, teachers and the principal of Kindergarten Plus Al Hujjah Jember, while data collection used observation, interviews and documentation.
The research results show that many parents still have limited understanding of sex education in accordance with Islamiic values. However, through structured Islamiic sex education programs, such as parenting classes, parents can gain better knowledge about the importance of open communication about sexual issues with their children. These programs not only provide academic information, but also equip parents parents with practical skills to discuss this sensitive topic.
This study concluded that the implementation of Islamiic sex education can significantly improve parents' understanding of sex education, and help them educate their children in a way that is in accordance with Islamiic law, as well as minimize the number of sexual crimes in early childhood. It is hoped that the results of this study can be a reference for educators, policy makers, and the community in efforts to improve the quality of sex education based on Islamic values

Moroccan subaltern voices narrated: the historical imaginary of race and the legacy of slavery in Rabbaj's Le Lutteur [The Wrestler] and El Hachimi’s Dhākirat al-narjis [The Daffodil’s Memory]
No full textNation in Moroccan historiography writings has traditionally been described as culturally, ethnically and racially homogeneous; an all-encompassing discourse that silences episodes about the historical legacy of slavery and racism in the country, and undermines multicultural Morocco. In fact, the history of Morocco's blacks of sub-Saharan descent remains fragmented, scattered and undocumented - partly because of the scarcity of archival sources. Recent years, however, have witnessed the revival of an 'African consciousness' in Moroccan history and in literature. This is also the case of Maghrebi (North African) and Arabic literature from the Mashreq (the Middle East) and the Gulf. In this paper, we consider how two recent Moroccan novels, [The Wrestler, in French] by My Seddick Rabbaj (2017) and [The Daffodil's Memory, in Arabic] by Rachid al-Hachimi (2018), deal with salient moments of trans-Saharan cultural connections. We argue that the historical and the geographical imaginaries connecting North and sub-Saharan Africa compel a discussion of the 'decolonial' as outlined by the Moroccan critic Abdelkebir Khatibi, and enforce a rebound on the concept of 'significant geographies'. In engaging with the narratives' concern about the construction of racial and cultural identities in Morocco, we consider how these works resonate with the recovery of the subaltern history of black Morocco, and how gender, rural and ethnic identity inform and imbue the texts with a knot of ambivalent discourses.

Exploring Zanidatamab’s efficacy across HER2-positive Malignancies: a narrative review
No full textAbstract Background HER2-positive cancers involve amplification or overexpression of the HER2 gene, leading to aggressive tumor growth across several cancer types, including breast, gastric, ovarian, and pancreatic cancers. Detection methods such as immunohistochemistry, next-generation sequencing, and fluorescence in situ hybridization are used, with new advancements like biosensors and circulating tumor DNA offering improved diagnostic potential. Treatment strategies have evolved, including anti-HER2 drugs like trastuzumab and newer agents like zanidatamab, which show promise against HER2-positive malignancies. Methods A comprehensive search of the following academic databases was performed including PubMed, Cochrane Library, and clinicaltrials.gov. A detailed search string was made. Studies were selected based on whether they contained the keywords and if they reported the details of treatment for zanidatamab. A total of 16 studies were selected. Abstracts were independently examined by one author and critically reviewed by another and if there were any conflicting viewpoints they were discussed until consensus was reached. Discussion Zanidatamab has shown promising clinical outcomes in several HER2-positive cancers, including biliary tract, breast, gastric, and lung cancers, with high disease control rates and progression-free survival. Although it is not yet FDA-approved, it has received priority review for HER2-positive biliary tract cancer, with an FDA decision expected in November 2024. The safety profile of zanidatamab has been well-studied. The most common side effects include diarrhea, infusion reactions, and other mild to moderate treatment-related adverse events. In combination with Palbociclib for HER2-positive breast cancer, more severe side effects were observed, resulting in some patients discontinuing treatment. However, no treatment-related deaths have been reported across trials. While its anticancer efficacy and manageable safety profile are promising, long-term safety and efficacy data are still needed. Early clinical trials demonstrate strong efficacy, though some side effects, such as diarrhea and decreased ejection fraction, were noted. Future research should focus on understanding potential resistance mechanisms and establishing zanidatamab’s broader role in the treatment landscape of HER2-positive cancers. Conclusion In summary, zanidatamab has shown significant tumor response, progression-free survival, disease control, and improved quality of life in early trials, however, the lack of long-term safety and efficacy data remains a key limitation, requiring further research
