UNDERSTANDING PUBLIC COMPLACENCY PRACTICES IN TIMES OF COVID-19 LOCKDOWNS IN THE CITY OF HARARE, ZIMBABWE. A MULTI-STAKEHOLDER PERSPECTIVE

Authors: ZVIMEKRIA CLIVE MUKUSHWA, MARSHALL SAMUGWEDE

Abstracts: The purpose of this article is to contextually understand and examine in-depth the phenomenon of public complacency in times of COVID-19 lockdowns in the City of Harare (Zimbabwe). COVID-19 pandemic was first reported in China (Wuhan) in late 2019 before its global spread. It has undoubtedly become one of the newest, highly transmissible and deadliest threat to global human health as well as to democratic freedom. To minimise its spread, most global governments devised a mélange of COVID-19 lockdown measures but nevertheless the phenomenon of public complacency has become a global wicked problem. Researches that examine public complacency on COVID-19 lockdowns are still scarce and emerging. Hence, this article is critical as it provides an understanding and examination on this subject matter which ultimately contributes to extant theoretical literature on COVID-19 pandemic in this specific dimension. This study is largely qualitative and single-case study, which relied on key informant interviews and non-participant observations to collect data from cross-sectional participants. This was complemented with analytic desktop review of extant literature. The results indicate that COVID-19 lockdowns have seriously impacted on citizens’ freedom in terms of movements, participation and livelihood strategy activities. It further emerged that citizens are engaged in complacency practices because of invisibility of law enforcement agents, selective application of COVID-19 protocols, economic climate, the belief that inoculation is immunity to COVID-19, hunger or abject poverty and public denial to new normal of COVID-19. The article has proposed some recommendations to improve public adherence in times of COVID-19 lockdowns in the City of Harare and further afield. This article recommends a study to be conducted on how COVID-19 lockdowns affects the public from a socio-psychological dimension in urban setting.

PROSPECTS AND CHALLENGES ON PUBLIC FUNDS MANAGEMENT: THE REFLECTION FROM HEAD OF SCHOOLS IN TANZANIA

Authors: MWITA SOSPETER

Abstracts: Quality of any service provision is subject to the leaders who are entrusted power to manage and control all the necessary resources such as funds and fiscal within the given institution. This is because in the era of massive transformation in school management and administration there is a need to update leadership and management skills for sustainable institutions. This study explored the prospects and challenges on public funds management in the reflection from the head of schools. Sample of 35 head of schools who were randomly obtained participated in this study. The results show that head of schools had inadequate expected skills in public funds management. It was further revealed that fund mismanagement in Tanzania leads to poor service delivery within public schools. However, several measures have been established to equip school leaders with appropriate financial skills including providing training on school fund management and attending seminars and/or in-services training on financial related courses. Thus, the responsible authorities are urged to establish regulations and institutions for training heads of schools before and after the appointment. This could help in assuring reliable heads of schools with appropriate public funds management skills. Therefore, heads of schools could draw appropriate skills, knowledge and experiences in school management upon being provided with in-house training on school management and administration. It also recommends that the agency responsible for training in cooperation with education stakeholders need to undertake several pieces of training to inform school leaders on the new changes in education management.

THE ROLE OF PROBIOTICS IN THE TREATMENT OF HELICOBACTER PYLORI-CAUSED GASTRITIS

Authors: ZERIHUN ASEFA BIRU

Abstracts: Helicobacter pylori are a typical bacterium that affects a portion of the population in the world. Probiotics in combination with antibiotics to treat gastritis caused by Helicobacter pylori is an effective treatment that has fewer negative effects than antibiotics alone. In comparison to using antibiotics alone, probiotics plus antibiotic supplementation eliminate gastritis caused by H pylori. Antibiotic-based H. pylori treatment is only about seventy percent successful, and it comes with a slew of side effects. As a result, probiotics combined with antibiotics have a completely inhibiting effect on H. pylori caused by gastritis. Probiotics are beneficial in reducing H. pylori-related stomach discomfort, according to several in vivo investigations. Human studies looked at the efficacy of antibiotics and probiotics in combination, and the results showed that probiotics improved H. pylori gastritis reduction and inhibited H. pylori settlement. Despite this, no study has been able to show that probiotics alone are capable of eliminating H. pylori. Probiotics used in conjunction with antibiotics can reduce the antagonistic qualities induced by H. pylori abolition antibiotic activity, and hence have beneficial properties in H. pylori-infected people. Long-term intake of diets containing probiotic strains improves antibiotic action of H. pylori infection in humans, mostly by lowering the risk of antibiotic-related diseases.

DEVELOPMENT OF END-OF-LINE TESTING FOR POWER NET GUARDIAN PRODUCTS

Authors: BHUMIKA U, M G VEENA

Abstracts: Testing a factory-made unit at the tip of the line could be a vital step within the production method. Defective product or perhaps those not matching specification limits closely enough should be separated from the useful units shipped to the client. End-of-Line (EoL) testing assesses not solely the standard of the merchandise, however conjointly the soundness and yield of the assembly method. Reliable detection of non-functional units is that the primary objective of the take a look at, however reducing the rejection rate and increasing the output is that the final result. Automatic testing replaces additional and additional subjective testing by human operators to shorten the assembly cycle and to enhance the reliability and likeness of the results. However, objective measurements have need to give a comprehensive assessment as sensitive as a personality's tester victimization his visual and aural senses. To completely vie with associate older operator, the target mensuration instrument must even have learning capabilities to accumulate information concerning physical causes of the mistake. Moreover, it should to be capable of being integrated in machine-driven lines, strong in an exceedingly harsh and shrie atmosphere, price effective and easy to use.

Authors: ASHRAFUL ISLAM, FARHAN BHUIYAN, HASIBUL HASAN SAKIB, TUSHER DEBNATH, HUMAYRA SIDDIKA, SUMIYA AKTHER JOYA

Abstracts: In March 2020, The WHO (World Health Organization) announced COVID-19 as a worldwide epidemic. The Artificial Intelligence can play a vital role in different ways, such as machine learning in identifying COVID-19 patients by analyzing their chest X-Ray visually. Classifying the chest X-Ray with a new machine learning method, COVID-19 patients and non-COVID-19 patients can be identified. The new ML method can lower the development cost, also can detect & diagnose the virus in a test with large number of datasets. The ML method can be a useful tool to scan and analyze large number of the chest X-Ray as an image and also with accurate outcomes. This ML approach can work with rapid amount of data in short time and accurately from the Chest X-Ray image. With an improved Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), the X-Ray image can be segmented in fewer iterations. By analyzing and segmenting the chest X-Ray image, the detection process can be optimized with its histograms and threshold techniques. a new model based on Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) that automatically detects COVID-19 using chest images is presented. that most of the affected people have no common symptoms before checkup COVID-19. If the detection results are incorrect, the patient will not be able to understand that he or she has Covid19. The proposed model is evaluated by Python libraries namely TensorFlow and Keras.

CLASSROOM DISCOURSE ANALYSIS

Authors: MITIKU TESHOME ABETI

Abstracts: This paper was aimed to investigate a classroom discourse and find out its uses for the teaching of English as a FL/SL. To achieve the purpose, the researcher made a classroom observation as a tool of data collection. The class was randomly selected from Kokebe Tsibah Secondary and Preparatory School, Grade 11. After having simply the record, transcription was made. Based on the transcription, among the models of classroom discourse, the Sinclair and Coulthard (1975) model was selected as a sign post of this classroom based discourse analysis. Comparing the model with the actual classroom transcription, the discourse analysis was made and the interpretation and recommendation were finally put in the study. Based on the analysis it was confirmed that the classroom from which the data in the paper was taken didn’t promote equal roles for teacher and students. Teacher was dominating the class and students were not fully participating in that classroom. Additionally, there were unequal amount of moves and exchanges between teacher and students. All the moves, acts and exchanges between them were unequal. The class was teacher dominated. The initiation was from the teacher. There was no room for students to begin or initiate the conversation. When we see the lines from the transcription, teachers talk is about 10 lines more than that of students talk. Finally, it was recommended that teachers should give sufficient time for their students to make them practice the language and students are also needed to fully participate in the classroom in English lessons.

AN INVESTIGATIONAL APPROACH TO REHABILITATING ENVIRONMENTALLY RESPONSIBLE TRENDS IN A GIVEN CONTEXT.

Authors: MANTHRIRATNE P.A.P.H.

Abstracts: Sri Lanka's primary industry is the garment manufacturing industry. The garbage is introduced to the environment in significant amounts every year due to the high production capacity. Post-consumer fabric waste accounts for most discarded textile waste. Recovery prospects for controlling post-consumer textile waste have been reviewed timely. Alternative value-added techniques, such as printing and dying, are quickly displacing traditional value-added procedures. Instead of using destructive procedures, fabric waste from garment manufacturing can also be used as a value addition to new products with handcrafted sustainability modifications. Waste fabric pieces have been utilized as value additions above the resulting combination, strengthening the base fabric's durability, texture, comfort, confidence, and alternative styling. The purpose of this research is to produce an experimental prototype while exploring creativity-driven available options for repurposing post-consumer textile waste and proposing an entrepreneurial business opportunity to reach the local community's customer base. Meanwhile, the research will consider both environmental and ethical sustainability approaches. Experimental practical options have been tested throughout while evaluating the appropriate methodologies to find a better prospect.

CHALLENGES FACED IN THE IMPLEMENTATION OF INCLUSIVE EDUCATION IN TEACHERS’ COLLEGES IN ZIMBABWE

Authors: SOPHIE HLATYWAYO, TICHAONA MAPOLISA

Abstracts: This paper sought to explore the challenges faced in the implementation of inclusive education in teachers’ colleges in Zimbabwe. The paper was focused on three teacher training colleges in Zimbabwe. The study used interpretivism paradigm, qualitative research approach and multiple case studies research design. The population of the study were college principals, lecturers and students. A sample of seventeen (17) participants and eight (8) key informants was selected using homogenous purposive sampling. Data were generated using face-to-face interviews and direct observation guide. The paper established that major challenges affecting inclusive education were absence of inclusive education policy, shortage of resources, lack of funding, lack of skilled personnel, attitudes of college personnel, inaccessible environment, rigid curriculum, work overload by lecturers, stigma and discrimination and lack of information by students with disabilities. It can be concluded that due to lack of skills and knowledge on inclusive education and disability by the lecturers, students with disabilities are not adequately catered for in teachers’ colleges thus, affecting their professional development. It was also concluded that shortage of resources was affecting inclusive education in teachers’ colleges. The paper recommended that the Ministry of Higher Education Innovation Science and Technology Development (MHTEISDT) and teachers' colleges' administrators should have a budget to support inclusive education in teachers' colleges.
