Abstract

This study intends to analyze the level of AI literacy among college students and its relationship to their academic performance. This investigation used a cross-sectional research design to address the research objective of the study. Eight hundred sixty-nine (869) college students served as participants in the investigation using an adapted instrument to measure AI literacy. Data from the respondents underwent statistical analysis, such as frequency, percentage, mean, independent t-test, Analysis of Variance, and Pearson-r Moment of Correlation. Results show that college students have a moderately high AI literacy level, and their academic performance was also highly satisfactory. The study also found significant differences in AI literacy in terms of college and gender and academic performance in terms of college, year level, and age. As for the relationship, there was a weak positive relationship between AI literacy and the academic performance of college students

Abstract

This paper explored the problems with the local government's joint account system and their implications for grassroots service delivery. This paper relied on secondary data sourced from books, journals and the Federal Republic of Nigeria's 1999 Constitution. Data collected was analyzed using content analysis method. The paper concluded the State Joint Local Government Account violates the constitution, despite being constitutional, and it also undermines the values of good governance, including accountability, efficiency, transparency, accessibility, and participation. The elimination of the State Joint Local Government Account will allow local governments’ complete financial autonomy and ensure good governance at the local level. The paper therefore among others things advocates for local government's autonomy in the conduct of internal affairs in order to improve the effectiveness of its traditional function as vehicles of social, economic and political advancement at the grassroots

Abstract

Tanzania is a low-income oil-importing developing country, with characteristics that typify the vulnerability of a Third World economy, with external debt payment crisis. Nigeria on the other hand, is a mineral-rich oil-exporting country also enmeshed in debt crisis. Sadly, Nigeria has been the region’s largest borrower. Both countries have different economic development strategies. While Tanzania with initial socialist bent, capitulated to the conditionalities of multilateral agencies, Nigeria on the other hand followed the path of a mixed economy and later reverted to the capitalist economic mode. This discourse examines the colonial roots of the economic crisis in both Nigeria and Tanzania. The study also x-rays the impacts of British colonial administration on Nigeria and Tanzania, and the political and economic systems that evolved in these colonies. The work found out that the imposition of indirect rule, which meant the superimposition of the colonial method of government on the various indigenous emirates, kingdoms, and tribal chieftaincies in Nigeria and Tanzania was for economic exploitation. The work submits that the underlying motive of colonialism was to ensure the effective and unchallenged exploitation of the colonies for the benefit of British capitalists, and the indirect rule system was intended as the best way to accomplish this end. This exploitation has however continued unabetted into the present-day neo-colonial exploitation aided by both Nigerian and Tanzanian collaborators.

Abstract

The focal point of this piece of writing is to manifest the reception of the Book of Tobit in the homily of Raphael. The archangel Raphael appears for the first time in Tobit.  The earliest attestation of the Book of Tobit goes back to 3rd century B.C. The text is attested in the Greek version of the Old Testament called Septuagint. On the other hand, the homily of Raphael is part of the 15th C hagiography, one of the religious books in EOTC tradition. This study investigates the use of the material found in the Book of Tobit in the Dersana Rufaýel as reflected in the traditional Ethiopian spiritual practice and worship. There was a significant influence of the homily of Raphael in Ethiopian tradition. It has two different versions: one attributed to John Chrysostom and the other one is to Abuna Zecharyas. Now The Haiq Estifanos Manuscript has close connection with Book of Tobit and represents the version of Abuna Zecharyas.  The Title of the manuscript is “Dǝrsanä Rufaýel” and it was found in the Monastery of Haiq Estifanos [Haiq ýÉstifanos Gädam] under the title of Dǝrsanä Mälaýǝkt which is additional. The study compares this homily with the similar contents in Book of Tobit.  The archangel Raphael who appears for the first time in Tobit (3rd century B.C.) and was written by a Jew of the Diaspora, probably in Egypt is attested in the following verses Tb. 12:15). (Tb. 5:13; 7:7), (6:1-3); 6:14; 8:3) and (11:7-14).  The narration of Haiq Estifanos Manuscript relied heavily on the book of Tobit especially from Book of Ţobit Chapter five to fifteen. , The study analyses the Homily of Raphael by distinguishing between quotations and allusions to the Book of Tobit.  , After the background, the study will discuss the quotations and the allusions of the book of Tobit in the Homily of Saint Raphael.  The analysis shows that the therapeutic and salutary role played by the Archangel Raphael in the Book of Tobit is also found in the homily of Saint Raphael. One thus discovers the impact of the Book of Tobit on Dǝrsanä Rufaýel and the role of the latter on Ethiopian Spiritual practice and worship.

Abstract

In Nigeria, despite numerous efforts to promote environmental safety, progress has been limited. Many young people, particularly children, need greater awareness of climate change's consequences, such as food scarcity. This paper examines the potential of eco-theatre as an effective tool for children's theatre to enhance environmental awareness among youth. By equipping children with knowledge about the importance of fostering a more eco-friendly Nigeria, children’s theatre plays a crucial role. Utilizing participatory action research and drama, this study addresses harmful environmental practices such as bush burning, deforestation, and bush meat hunting by highlighting their negative impacts and empowering children to advocate for environmental preservation. The paper showcases a children’s theatre production, "Bush Meat Makes You Bushy," developed from a three-day workshop, as a case study. The incorporation of the 'Catch them young' principle into eco-theatre aims to cultivate a generation of environmentally conscious children who can advocate for biodiversity conservation. Findings suggest that when children become environmental advocates, they can influence their parents and other adults. Given that children represent the future, they are ideal candidates for behavioral change initiatives. The paper concludes that eco-theatre for children can significantly aid in improving Nigeria's environmental condition, with eco-drama having the potential to enhance children's theatre experiences and boost their engagement with environmental issues.

Abstract

The school certification assessment process plays a crucial role in ensuring the quality of education provided by educational institutions. However, this process is not without its challenges. This study explores some of the key challenges faced during school certification assessments and discusses some implications for quality assurance in a developing country. A survey research design using quantitative and qualitative methods was conducted with 40 junior high school faculty, staff, and administrators from four selected Education Service Contracting (ESC)-participating schools in San Pablo City, Laguna, Philippines. An e-survey questionnaire was used online through Google Forms. Findings revealed that the recertification process presents significant challenges for ESC-participating schools, and some did not achieve the certified status because they did not meet the Department of Education (DepEd) minimum standards and Private Education Assistance Committee (PEAC) certification requirements. In addition, there is a lack of government support and incentives for the schools. The study recommended specific ways to address the issues encountered. By addressing these challenges, we can enhance the effectiveness and credibility of the certification process, ultimately leading to improved educational outcomes.
