Abstract

This study examines students’ readiness to adopt paperless learning within the Circular Economy framework in senior high schools in Svay Rieng Province, Cambodia. It analyzes the influence of environmental awareness, digital literacy, and habitual behavior on preparedness for transitioning from paper-based to digital learning. A quantitative descriptive approach was applied, using survey data from 148 students. Instrument validity and reliability were confirmed, and multiple regression analysis was conducted to assess the relationships among variables. The results indicate that all three factors significantly influence readiness, with digital literacy as the strongest predictor, followed by habits and environmental awareness. Together, these variables explain 51.3% of the variance in student preparedness. The findings extend existing technology adoption models, including the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) and the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT), by integrating environmental and behavioral dimensions. Practically, the study emphasizes the need to strengthen digital literacy through training and curriculum integration, supported by programs that foster environmental responsibility and sustainable learning habits. These insights provide a policy framework for schools and policymakers in developing contexts to implement paperless education effectively and inclusively.

Abstract

Waste management is a critical challenge in Svay Rieng Municipality, Cambodia, where rapid industrialization and population growth have intensified the problem of uncollected waste. Although national strategies such as the Circular Strategy in Environment Sector 2023–2028 have been introduced, implementation remains limited due to inadequate infrastructure, a small waste collection fleet, weak community participation, and poor coordination among stakeholders. This study employed a qualitative descriptive–interpretive design using a multiple case study approach in Chong Prek and Roup Kor villages. Data were collected through participant observation, semi-structured interviews with twelve key informants, and document analysis, and were validated using triangulation across sources, methods, and investigators. Analysis was guided by the Miles, Huberman, and Saldana model, focusing on the regulatory, facilitative, and dynamizing roles of local authorities. The findings indicate that while regulations exist, enforcement is weak, infrastructure development is delayed by land allocation issues, and outreach efforts are largely reactive. Community engagement remains limited, with participation often triggered only by external pressure or special events. The study concludes that stronger regulatory enforcement, timely infrastructure provision, continuous community education, and institutionalized multi-stakeholder collaboration are essential for advancing a more effective and sustainable waste management system in Svay Rieng Municipality.

Abstract

The development of human resources in education and training is becoming more important, and the roles of human resources have become necessary to contribute to all sectors of national development. This study aims to codify the fundamental theories on human resources quality improvement in universities and draw lessons learned for Svay Rieng University. As a methodology, the research results are mainly collected from the published information, and descriptive statistics are the principal analytical method used in this article. The study presents the basic concepts of human resources, human resources quality, human resources management structure in universities, and the rational structure of human resources in universities. As lessons learned, in order to develop the quality of lecturers as well as human resources at Svay Rieng University, first of all, it must have proper, reasonable, and objective assessments so that it can clearly find out the strengths, weaknesses, and constraints of human resources quality improvement. After accurately assessing these issues, it is necessary to have regulations, policies, and strategies for human resources development; therefore, human resources can constantly improve their quality and quantity to meet the vision and mission of the university in the next period.
