Effects Of Computer-Simulated Instructional Strategy On Senior Secondary School Students’ Interest And Achievement In Practical Physics In Imo State, Nigeria

ABSTRACT Due to the abstract nature of physics, many secondary school students have low interest and perform poorly in the subject. Literature showed that to stimulate students‟ interest, better conceptual understanding and achievement, there is the need to introduce computer-simulated experiments in physics practical classes. Previous studies on the use of computer-simulated experiments in physics practical activities have focused more on students in higher institutions than on secondary s...

Rapid Bioconversion Of Rice Straw Using Cellulolytic Cultures For Improved And Sustainable Crop Productivity And Soil Fertility In Mwea, Kenya

ABSTRACT  Proper management strategies for huge amounts of crop residue generated from agricultural farms need to be obtained. Composting is a good strategy in rice straw management. Traditional methods of composting rice straw are limited in timely production of good quality compost due to its recalcitrant nature. There is need to develop and formulate microbial starter cultures that are adapted to local climatic conditions to ensure efficiency in using microorganisms in composting. This st...

Failure Rate of Direct High-Viscosity Glass-Ionomer Versus Hybrid Resin Composite Restorations in Posterior Permanent Teeth - a Systematic Review

PURPOSE: Traditionally, resin composite restorations are claimed by reviews of the dental literature as being superior to glass-ionomer fillings in terms of restoration failures in posterior permanent teeth. The aim of this systematic review is to answer the clinical question, whether conventional high-viscosity glass-ionomer restorations, in patients with single and/or multi-surface cavities in posterior permanent teeth, have indeed a higher failure rate than direct hybrid resin composite re...

Relationship Between Realization Of Right To Adequate Food And Food Security: A Study Among Pastoral And Small Farm Holder Households

ABSTRACT The Universal Declaration of Human Rights and International Convention on Economic and Social Cultural Rights underpin freedom from hunger and dignified lives for all. The study aimed at developing an innovative methodology for assessment of realization of the right to adequate food at household level and its validation; investigation of realization of the right to adequate food and its influence on food security, perception of rights to adequate food among pastoral and small farm h...

Modeling the Impact of Traveling Time on the Utilization of Maternity Services Using Routine Health Facility Data in Siaya County, Western Kenya

Abstract/Overview In Kenya, no studies have attempted to use routine health facility data disaggregated by level of care, to find out if there is a significant statistical relationship between physical accessibility and utilization of maternity services at the ward administrative level. A cross-sectional study design used publicly available geospatial data in combination with routine data from the web-based district health information software (DHIS2) platform. Access Mod (version 5.2.6) ...

WOODY SPECIES DIVERSITY AND CARBON STOCK OF SCATTERED TREES ON FARMLAND ALONG ELEVATION GRADIENT IN GEMECHIS DISTRICT, WEST HARARGHE ZONE, OROMIA, ETHIOPIA

Abstract: Scattered trees within farmland are common land-use in Ethiopia and many parts of the tropics. These systems play an important role in climate change mitigation and adaptation, through carbon sequestration. Therefore, in the eastern part a little information compiled, generally and specifically in the study district don’t any information available concerning woody species diversity of scattered trees on farmland and its role in carbon sequestration. This study objectives, was con...

Hierarchical Logistic Regression Model For Multilevel Analysis : An Application On Use Of Contraceptives Among Women In Reproductive Age In Kenya

ABSTRACT Contraception allows women and couples to have the number of children they want, when they want them. This is everybody’s right according to the United Nations Declaration of Human Rights. Use of Contraceptive also reduces the need for abortion by preventing unwanted pregnancies. It therefore reduces cases of unsafe abortion,one of the leading causes of maternal death worldwide.According to Mohammed ,in 2012 an estimated 464,000 induced abortions occurred in Kenya. This translates ...
