Palmyra Fiber as Additional Materials on Solid Concrete Brick of Aggregate
ISSN : 20399340     EISSN : 20392117     DOI : 10.36941/mjss
The use of waste as an additional material on the building work was increasingly actively developed, such as straw, styrofoam, bagasse, cow manure. The key drivers of the use of waste is the potential for waste is increasing, due to the depletion of non-renewable resources. Papyrus rod diameter 60 cm, length 30 meters, has a volume of 5,652m3 as well as the edges of the Rods that can be used for construction with a thickness of 3 cm has a volume 0,942m3, Pith and fiber volume content of the stem 4,71m3/rod, then in one rod, there are 2 to 3 bunches each fruit bunches yield as much as 20 to 30 items for one harvest, by weight of fruit fiber 101.2 gram / fruit, Fiber characteristics are round and smooth is expected to reduce cracks in solid concrete brick and also can reduce the use of sand. This study aims to determine the compressive strength of the composition of the additional material of Rods fiber content and Fiber of palmyra fruit with a percentage 3%, 6% and 9%, mixing ratio; 1 cement and 5 sand in the manufacture of solid concrete brick. Rods fiber content used the average Ø1,031mm with a tensile strength of single fiber 39,305N / cm and fruit fiber to an average value Ø0,40mm with a tensile strength of single fiber 33,691N / cm. Making test specimen with a length of 20cm, width 10cm and thick 8cm. The test results of compressive strength after 14 days with the lowest value at 3% of additional material combination of fiber content of 6% fiber stem and fruit by 70,384Kg/cm²with a water content of 15,254% In weight position 2,935Kg as well as the highest value on the combination of additional material 0% rods fiber content and 3% fruit fiber by 98,821Kg/cm² with a water content of 15,031% In weight position 3,058Kg. While N (without additional material) with a compressive strength below the average id 63,704Kg/cm2 with water content of 10,167 in weight position 3,072Kg. Research result of solid concrete brick with additional material of rods fiber content and palmyra fruit fiber was included on the type B70, the average value of the compressive strength of 78.57 Kg / cm² (SNI-03-1348-1989) with a water content of <25%.

Abstract

The article analyzes and compares the accent system of two typologically different languages, Ukrainian and Chinese.Comparative analysis of accent system of these provide the basic data to determine phonetic error also can help to preventmistakes and facilitate general comprehension on a prosody level to which word stress belongs. It is important to emphasize thatthis study deals with word stress only in two-syllable Chinese words. Special attention is paid to the study of word stress inChinese Language (Mandarin) for a Ukrainian audience. Ukrainian and Chinese languages represent different types oflanguages. Ukrainian belongs to Slavic group, and is a flectional type; Chinese belongs to the Sino-Tibetan family, and is anisolating syllabic type language. Phonetical system of these two languages is different, which is the main reason Ukrainian nativespeaker have trouble mastering the Chinese phonetical system. Improper application of word stress can render communicationdifficult or even impossible. Comparative research of these two phonetically systems can help in the development of studyingmaterials based on the phonetic features of Ukrainian and Chinese. Thus, the aim of the article is, first, to determine accentrhythmsystem in Ukrainian and Chinese language traditions. Secondly, compare the word stress in different types of languages,namely flectional and isolating. Word stress helps to organize syllables into one language unit; this language unit has a certainaccent-rhythm structure.

Abstract

This study sought to identify the relative effectiveness of classroom interaction techniques on senior secondarystudents’ silence and confusion in Government classroom in Port Harcourt Local Government, Rivers State, Nigeria. Tworesearch questions guided the study; two hypotheses were tested and analyzed using chi square statistics. The population ismade up of 580 students and six teachers. Students in SS1 and SS11 in three public schools constituted the sample. Fourclassrooms were used; two SS1 classes and two SS11 classes respectively. Three teachers taught SS1 classes and threeteachers taught SS11 classes using a techniques( Flanders, IRE, and Teaching Cycles). Twelve lessons were recorded on acassette, transcribed and coded. Flanders category was the observational instrument. Test- retest method was used to establishthe reliability of the instrument at 0.87 co- efficient. The result showed that students’ silence and confusion is not contingent onclass level. Silence and confusion are part of the continuum in every classroom. Re-conceptualizing silence and confusion in theclassrooms could go a long way in enhancing student participation and engagement.

Abstract

Multimedia [MM] materials and equipment are instructional materials which teachers and trainers use as alternativemeans of communication to transmit curriculum content to the learner. MM combines two or more different types of instructionalmaterials at the same time in a presentation. They have synchronization potentials and can be effectively used to facilitateteaching and learning process, arouse learners’ interest, support and reinforce students learning, influence better academicperformance in learners, aid mastery learning, among other things. This paper presents the results of research studies carriedout to determine the effect of synchronized MM use on motivation and academic performance of students in Biology. Pearsonproduct correlational analysis indicated lack of correlation between use of synchronize MM and students’ motivation while t-testindicates significant difference between biology students who were taught with synchronized MM (mean score, 51) and thecontrol group (mean score, 23). The control group who were taught the same Biology devoid of synchronized MM packageperformed poorly. We recommend that there is need for government to provide multimedia in secondary school and the biologyteachers to make transition to use modern MM devices and adopt different approaches for biology instruction and laboratoryactivities rather than the traditional or conventional talk-chalk method.

Abstract

The advances in Information and Communication Technology (ICT) and its rapid growth are changing the way peopleuse, develop, process and disseminate information and instruction {technology}. There is no doubt that ICT use in the classroomincrease student’s motivation to learn, engage in learning and give independence in learning. Evidence shows that there is acorrelation between using ICT in schools and students academic achievement across a range of courses. Student arecomfortable and fulfilled in an ICT environment and using this as a bench mark, [integrating it with a self-paced student centeredlearning] in conjunction with the conventional classroom learning will go a long way to improve learning thereby increasingacademic performance of the students at large. This paper explores the potential of self-paced e-learning alongside withconventional classroom learning and the positive impact the integration of the two can have on student’s academic performancewhen incorporated into the Nigeria Educational system.

Abstract

The development of the concept of justice is connected with the development of theories of law, jurisprudence andpolitics. But, in the beginning was the philosophy of the existence of man, the philosophy was the survival of the fittest. Then,no other right seemed to belong to man except that of the defence of his life. The Greek period and the emergence of civilsociety paved way for legal era. Various instruments of history brought nations under one umbrella, hence myriad of worldconferences on education have followed since the 50s, such that education has in the contemporary times become the mostcrucial asset of every society. On its part, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights of 1948 stipulated the right of everycitizen of the world to education. A day like this, in 1990, a world conference on Education For All (EFA) was held in Jomtiem,Thailand. Contemporary societies acknowledge education as the key to acquiring the desired potentials necessary for individualwell-being and national development. Legal education mould character and serves as a veritable tool for social regulation. Thispaper dwells on the education based on law which encompasses the rights of citizens protected by law.
