Abstract

Avocado starch has gained attention as a potential bio-based material due to its unique features that make it suitable for forming biofilms. This work thoroughly examines the changing field of research focused on using avocado starch for biofilm applications. It uses VOSviewer, a tool for analyzing bibliometric data, to uncover important insights using a database of Scopus-indexed journal publishers. This study aimed to determine research trends on the use of avocado starch for biofilm production. The Scopus database collected information on research trends in the use of avocado starch for biofilm production. To obtain search results, subject categories with titles, keywords, and abstract criteria from the use of avocado starch extraction, biofilm/bioplastic production, and biocomposite were used as a reference. Using VOSviewer, search result extraction was performed. The results of bibliometric mapping were then further evaluated. The findings of the bibliometric study are demonstrated through network visualization, overlay visualization, and density visualization. The findings indicate that starch produced from avocados has the potential to be a viable resource for manufacturing biofilms. However, further investigation is required to enhance the overall quality of the produced biofilm.

Abstract

The main thrust of this study was to determine factors affecting teachers' readiness in distance education and its effect on the learners’ learning performance. This study utilized a descriptive-correlational approach in determining perceptions of the factors affecting teachers’ readiness for distance education. Moreover, the instrument utilized to gather data was a modified survey questionnaire. It was found that there is a significant relationship between learners’ learning performance and the perceived factors affecting teachers’ readiness for distance learning. Among the factors affecting teachers' readiness for distance learning, only the management of learning greatly influences learners’ learning performance. The researcher recommended that DepEd should boost the teachers’ attitude towards modular distance learning delivery modality by providing the needs of the teachers; school administrators should come- up with adequate training courses, webinars, seminars, and/or workshops should be provided to the teachers considering their teaching-learning needs in the new normal; teachers must be supported and guided to boost their varied teaching styles and weaknesses as they adjust into the new normal and should uplift their attitude more towards distance learning modality since they play a more significant part in its success and parents should also have to take part during this time of crisis, they should provide assistance and support to their child as they have this significant role to fill in as replacements to their teachers.

Abstract

During the coffee harvest season, coffee skins are generated as a byproduct of the coffee processing procedure. The quantity of coffee skin generated is substantial, typically 40% to 50%. Coffee skins are commonly subjected to a drying process and afterward provided to goats as a supplementary feed, typically without undergoing any specific treatment. The cellulose concentration of dried coffee skin is significantly elevated, which can lead to a decrease in its digestion. By employing technological advancements such as fermentation, it is possible to reduce the cellulose content or crude fiber present in coffee skins. This fiber reduction enhances the coffee skin's digestibility and shelf life. The utilization of fermented coffee skin as a concentrated feed source for goats has been observed. Based on scholarly sources, it has been suggested that goats require approximately 10% of their body weight in daily forage feed. Additionally, it is deemed essential to supplement their diet with concentrate feed, ideally amounting to 1% of their body weight, to offer additional nourishment. To sustain a population of 25-50 goats, each weighing an average of 25 kg, farmers are required to supply a daily feed quantity ranging from 75-125 kg. Therefore, group members must possess imperative for group members to possess an adequate provision of feed, including grass and concentrates, to consistently fulfill goats' dietary requirements the group to possess an adequate provision of feed, including both grass and concentrates, to fulfill the dietary requirements of goats consistently. One potential approach to addressing the challenges partners encounter is imparting knowledge, enhancing skills, and introducing suitable technology for by partners is imparting knowledge, enhancing skills, and introducing suitable technology to the strategic provision of goat animal feed. This can be achieved by fermenting coffee skins and producing silage, of fermenting coffee skins and producing silage, augmenting the feed's quantity and quality of the feed while extending its storage duration. The utilization of coffee skin waste, which is produced during coffee bean processing, as a viable feed option for goats is a promising solution. This approach eliminates the practice of stockpiling coffee skin waste beneath coffee trees, eliminates the practice of stockpiling coffee skin waste beneath coffee trees, and eliminates the practice of stockpiling coffee skin waste beneath coffee trees but also mitigates environmental pollution.
