Abstract

This was a hermeneutical phenomenological qualitative study of the coping strategies parents of children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) use to cope with the demanding behaviours of their children in the Lusaka district – in Zambia. Parents, as key caregivers of children with disabilities, are likelier to develop unhappiness and worry than parents of classically developing children. Parental stress is usually associated with the severity of the ASD disorder. It was imperative to study how parents in Lusaka District coped with children with ASD daily. Interviews were used to collect data. Ten (10) parents of children with ASD were purposively selected to participate in the study. Data analysis was done in themes that revealed extra worries for parents, caused mainly by a lack of information about ASD, especially before diagnosis. Parents adopted specific strategies to cope with their children's problematic behaviour in areas of social interaction. Further, parents require much assistance developing interaction between them and specialists to acquire support services regarding coping strategies for their children's behaviour

Abstract

Health science is crucial for a country's development. It provides healthcare knowledge and skills to health professionals to maintain the quality of health and well-being of its people. Cambodia's healthcare professionals are underrepresented in GDP growth because few students are interested in the health sciences. This study explores factors influencing students' decisions in choosing a health science major in higher education in Cambodia. It is a mixed-method study. Data was collected from the anonymous Google form questionnaire and focus-group discussions (FGDs). The quantitative data were analyzed using SPSS, while the qualitative data were analyzed thematically. The findings showed that tuition fees (38%), specialization courses offered (38%), university modern technology (31.4%), family's decision (29.8%), scholarship opportunity (29.8%), and university locations (24.8%), were the main factors for the participants' choices of their university majors. The theme-based results classified the students' decisions on health science majors into life experiences, role models, family support and engagement, academic performance, and career goals. The results further demonstrated that families, university profiles, and student academic performance played the most important roles in encouraging students' enrollment in health science majors to maintain the quality of the healthcare sector in Cambodia.

Abstract

The declining level and quality of productivity in the educational sector have become a cause for concern among stakeholders. This study investigated the connection between workers' organisational commitment, workload, and productivity among university staff in Oyo and Osun states. The descriptive research design was utilised, and data were collected from two public universities in each state. Valid and standardised instruments were used, including the Quantitative Workload Inventory, Work Productivity Survey, and Organizational Commitment Scale. Pearson correlation and regression analyses were conducted. The results revealed significant correlations between productivity and workload (r = .039, p < .05) and organisational commitment (r = .044, p < .05). Workload contributed the most (Beta = .425, t = 6.015, p < .05) productivity prediction, followed by organisational commitment (Beta = .284, t = 5.116, p < .05). These findings highlight the need for the educational sector to address the dangers posed by excessive workload and lack of organisational commitment. It is recommended that measures be implemented to manage these factors effectively, including improving working conditions, enhancing welfare packages, and ensuring prompt payment of salaries and allowances for university staff.

Abstract

This study aims to determine if spelling bee competitions aid in vocabulary growth for SMP Negeri 3 Banawa class VIII students. This study uses a quasi-experimental research approach using both controlled and experimental categories. Purposive sampling was used to choose the sample. Class VIII A has twenty-four students, while Class VIII B and the control class also have twenty-four students. Vocabulary tests were administered both before and after therapy to gather data. There is a pre-test and a post-test for the test. The control class received 39.27 points, whereas the experimental class had an average projected score of 50.83. The experimental class's post-test score was 73.63, whereas the control group scored 49.86. The data analysis findings indicate α = 0.05 and Sig. (2-tailed) based on the t-test, the predicated equality between the two means is 0.000. Sig.(2-tailed) < α = 0.05. in light of this. Ho was turned down, while Ha was accepted. Calculations show that SMP Negeri 3 Banawa class VIII students' vocabulary mastery has increased dramatically due to using the English Spelling Bee.

Abstract

Students often struggle with mastering vocabulary in their English learning journey, necessitating English teachers to seek solutions. One viable strategy teachers can adopt is the integration of crossword puzzles to enhance students’ vocabulary mastery. Specifically, the study sought to determine if providing crossword puzzles to the SMP Negeri 3 Banawa seventh-grade students could enhance their vocabulary proficiency. To measure the impact of this approach, the researcher employed pre-test and post-test assessments as evaluation tools in a quasi-experimental study. Through purposive sampling, the researcher selected two classes, VII B and VII D, each with 29 students, as the study’s sample groups. Subsequently, data analysis revealed a significant disparity between the pre-test and post-test scores in the experimental class. Notably, the computed p-valued (two-tailed) was 0.000, falling below the predetermined significance level of 0.05, signifying the acceptance of the hypothesis. In conclusion, implementing the crossword puzzle in this study led to a noticeable improvement in the vocabulary mastery of seventh-grade students at SMP Negeri 3 Banawa.

Abstract

In pronunciation, students encounter significant challenges when it comes to stress. The majority of students often struggle with the accurate placement of stress in words. This research project seeks to identify the key aspects: the specific word categories that pose the most significant difficulty for students regarding stress placement, the syllable position where students commonly struggle with pronunciation, and the predominant types of errors made when attempting to pronounce stress in English. This research takes a quantitative descriptive approach to gather information about these three aspects. The study's target population consists of 250 students from Tadulako University, with a sample of 35 students chosen through purposive sampling. Data collection was carried out through tests and mobile phones as research instruments, and the data were subsequently analyzed using basic statistical methods within the Excel application. The findings reveal that verbs are the most challenging for students to pronounce among various word categories, with 53 errors observed. Regarding syllable position, the ultimate position is the most difficult for students regarding placing stress on pronunciation, with 20 errors recorded. In line with the linguistic category, the error was identified in verb (48%), noun (25 %), and adjective (27%) errors produced by students.
