<![CDATA[The purpose of this study was to determine the variables affecting the implementation of writing skills instruction and learning in grades 7 and 8 in North Shoa Zone Second Cycle Primary schools. The study's primary purpose was to determine the difficulties encountered by English language instructors and students while teaching and learning to write in English classes. The research included the participation of 25 English language instructors and 1484 pupils from 14 Second Cycle Primary Schools. A questionnaire and an interview were used to obtain the required data. Questionnaires were completed by instructors and students, and English language teachers were interviewed. The questionnaire data was tallied and examined statistically in terms of frequency and percentage. Similarly, interview data were categorized and qualitatively characterized. The investigation revealed that the majority of instructors and students struggle with teaching and learning writing skills. Additionally, although both English instructors and students believe they are engaging in writing activities in the classroom, the students' writing performance is not as promising as shown by open-ended questions and comments from English language teachers interviewed. Several key suggestions are made in light of the results of this research in order to mitigate the issues that impede the efficient implementation of writing instruction and learning in second cycle primary schools. The primary recommendation is to offer enough training for English language instructors on how to teach writing skills, which will then be conveyed to students in order for them to enhance their writing performance.]]>

<![CDATA[In spite of the numerous poverty reduction policies and programs of successive administrations in Nigeria, the generality of the populace are still in a web of deprivation and hunger. It is apparent that government is unable to stem the tide of poverty and thus the need for surrogate stakeholders to lift the poor out of poverty. Therefore, an empirical study was conducted to estimate the factors influencing the willingness of religious institutions to undertake poverty reduction programs for it members and the constraints limiting their ability to initiate programs that will ameliorate the suffering of poor members in the congregation. A total of 60 churches were sampled through the multistage sampling procedure and information were elicited using questionnaire. Data were analyzed using probit model and Kendall’s coefficient of concordance. Result revealed that the most critical factors influencing the willingness of churches to undertake programs that will lift poor members of the congregation out of poverty were age and educational level of the church leaders, size of congregation, church income and age of the church. Result of Kendall’s coefficient of concordance indicated that there was 54 percent (moderate agreement) between the ranking of constraints associated with the willingness of churches to undertake programs that will lessen the pains of poverty among its members. Findings further showed that the top five most limiting constraints were lack of finance, lack of trained personnel, inadequate knowledge about the programs, unfavorable government policies and low membership strength.]]>

<![CDATA[The study at hand aims to investigate Algerian researchers’ perceptions of the importance of writing research articles for publication in international English medium journals, along with the incentives and disincentive influencing this process, and the challenges they encounter. To reach these aims, a survey is conducted with twenty-six Algerian researchers from three different fields of study using an online questionnaire created in Google Forms. The vast majority of the participants rate writing research in English as of great importance and they opt for different incentives influencing their decision to publish in international English medium journals, but they perceive themselves to be disadvantaged by their non-native status as the degree of their perceived difficulty of writing scientific articles in English is very high. This study highlights the correlation between the mastery of English as a principal prerequisite in the respondents’ fields of study and the use of English as an indispensable key to communicate their research results to the global scientific community. It then ends up with some strategies to be taken by higher education institutes to address this issue from different standpoints.]]>

<![CDATA[The empirical data on the effect of a high debt-to-GDP ratio on economic growth is conflicting. The article used the GDP Indicator to investigate the trajectory in the debt-to-GDP ratio in 45 nations in Sub-Saharan Africa during the COVID-19 Pandemic and to determine whether there is a point at which public debt becomes damaging to the region's economy. The major results demonstrated that as long as the economies of Sub-Saharan Africa continue to expand, a high debt-to-GDP ratio is not always negative; in fact, the majority of nations with a debt-to-GDP ratio greater than the 77 percent threshold had increased economic growth. Additionally, the paper discovered that countries in the region may face a high debt-to-GDP ratio as a result of excessive spending prompted by the Covid-19 pandemic, as well as an unpredictable slowdown in economic activity as a result of movement restriction policies imposed by subregional governments. Another intriguing conclusion is that Sub-Saharan Africa's average debt-to-GDP ratio of 56.6 percent in 2020 is much lower than the suggested limit of 77 percent. However, the report advised that governments reduce wasteful spending without jeopardizing the region's economic development rate. Finally, fiscal policies should be accompanied by monetary policies to promote effective public investment, simplified tax expenditures, increased public financial management, and better debt management and transparency.]]>

<![CDATA[The social advancement in a general public is the substantial or theoretical articulation of the soul of humankind. Indeed, even the impression of early man showed these two parts of culture. The unmistakable culture would fuse the visual examples left behind by humanity like canvases, models and design as additionally the ensembles, adornments, games and toys, utensils and so on The non-visual peculiarities acquired by the various social orders like traditions, habits, manners and the worth framework loved by them involve the elusive part of culture. The specialty of rangoli is by all accounts somewhere close to the substantial and the elusive and can be named as 'Fleeting substantial culture' (Shirgaonkar, 2010). The investigation of culture likewise can be deciphered as 'a investigation of flawlessness'. In this manner the cycle to accomplish the refined state is equivalent to that of achieving perfection. The advancement towards culture can't be limited to the individualistic level yet it is a collective endeavour. Clearly in the excursion towards the accomplishment of culture a few things get disposed of which likely have lost their significance and are a sort of dead wood (Arnold, 1911).]]>

<![CDATA[This study aims to dissect the Sociological Implications of Social Exchange Post-Election of Regional Head Candidates in Gorontalo Province. Methods of data collection using interviews, documentation and retrospective. This study produced several findings, including: First; Political elite social exchange relations are strategic situations that are mutually dependent, need each other, and are mutually beneficial as well as an effort to consolidate power to achieve electability/victory in the momentum of regional head elections. Second; The pattern of social exchange is based on a number of ownership potentials in the form of elite, figure and financial resources, which can determine the social forces that are considered by political parties to give party approval/recommendations to pairs of candidates for regional heads. Third, the social exchange strategy between party elites and political elites uses each other to achieve victory in the contestation of regional head elections. This study concludes that the sociological implications of social interactions take place in people's lives before and after the election of regional head candidates. There are divisions in society due to friction generated in the election of regional heads originating from social exchange relations, patterns of social exchange and social exchange strategies both individually and in groups of political elites and party elites.]]>
