This research paper focused on investigating the mathematical performance of grade 10 students and its role in determining their Senior High School (SHS) track/strand. The aim of the study is to explore the attitudes, beliefs, and opinions of the students towards mathematics and how it influences their decision-making process in choosing their SHS track/strand. Additionally, the study aims to examine the factors that affect students' performance in mathematics in relation to their chosen SHS track/strand.

In the presented research we propose to improve on historically accepted radiobiological models via Monte Carlo simulation of radiation tracks passing through a cell nucleus modeled with up-to-date subnuclear structures.

These tracks are called upon from the database and intersected with a cell nucleus model that incorporates DNA-containing structures. This allows for a Monte Carlo simulation of how DNA double strand breaks a

The first chapter of this study investigates the development of metaphors and analogies in philosophical texts ranging from Aristotle to Cicero that equate atomism with cosmological caprice and instability.

Contemporary proponents of the negative view, such as Matthew Kramer and Ian Carter, have sought to develop the Hobbesian idea that freedom is essentially a matter of physical non-prevention. Accordingly, they have sought to reduce the freedom-diminishing effect of coercion to that of prevention by arguing that coercive threats function to diminish freedom by preventing people from performing certain combinations of actions.

In contrast, the second view, ‘foundationalism’, is a metaphysical interpretation of the practice. Foundationalists claim that individuation is part of the very fabric of law.

Abstract:
Apprenticeships learning is part of the ongoing educational reforms to combat youth unemployment in Kenya. This paper presents findings of a study that assessed five donor-funded apprenticeships training projects using a descriptive research design. Using a sample of 54 respondents from apprentices, employers, schoo-based and in-company trainers, the study established that apprenticeship training improved the quality of vocational training. Moreover, apprenticeship training equipped trainees with market-ready skills that enabled a school-to work transition for employment, with a higher employe

Abstract:
As a public agency, interacting with and understanding the public’s perspective regarding agency activities is an important endeavor for the Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT). Although INDOT conducts a biennial customer satisfaction survey, it is occasionally necessary to capture public perception regarding more specific aspects of INDOT’s activities. In particular, INDOT needs an effective way to measure and track public opinions and awareness or understanding of a select set of its traffic engineering practices. To evaluate public acceptance of specific INDOT traffic engineering a

Abstract:
Written for the Second Congressional Commission on Education, this Policy Note summarizes new early evidence on the impact of the senior high school (SHS) program on the timing of school attendance and employment, quality of employment, and even marriage, fertility, and child health. It concludes that SHS graduates tend to have higher wages and more chances of employment in middle-skill occupations than junior high school graduates. It argues that although reverting to a K to 10 [Kindergarten to Grade 10] system or restricting SHS to college attendees might be financially beneficial in the sho

Abstract:
Strengthening the quality of education, science and technology education is one of the four strategic rectangles of Rectangular Strategy Phase IV and at the heart of Cambodia’s ambition to achieve higher-middle-income status by 2030 and high-income status by 2050. To that end, increasing attention has been paid to improving both the quantity and quality of science education from secondary school through higher education. Empirically, it has been demonstrated that upper secondary school science can play a significant role in inspiring students to pursue STEM majors in higher education. Yet, the

Abstract:
This report investigated the interplay between water quality, sanitation, hygiene and gender by examining distinct variables of water quality and their varying impacts on gender like reported water-related illnesses of males and females, and the consequences of water quality, sanitation, and hygiene on menstrual hygiene practices, particularly focusing on a low- and middle-income country- LMICs. This report presents the key findings, outlining a framework and guidance for examining gender-specific impacts stemming from poor water quality and WASH practices through a piloted case study in Abeok

Abstract:
The main recommendations of the Panel report can be summarised as follows: The Overall Picture: more needs to be understood about the process of acculturation of indigenous communities; about the Atlantic, Breton strand of Neolithisation; about the ‘how and why’ of the spread of Grooved Ware use and its associated practices and traditions; and about reactions to Continental Beaker novelties which appeared from the 25th century. The Detailed Picture: Our understanding of developments in different parts of Scotland is very uneven, with Shetland and the north-west mainland being in particular nee
