Cooperative Learning Pedagogy in Teaching an Inclusive Class Rooms

Abstract: Pedagogy involves aspects of teaching, learning and interaction within an educational context. Pedagogy studies how individuals learn, effective delivery methods, and the development of learning environments that support the holistic development of individuals. The main goal of pedagogy is to create a learning environment that enables understanding, skills, and values relevant to the holistic development of the learner. By understanding the principles of pedagogy and applying them effectively, teachers can become effective facilitators of learning and help learners reach their full potential. Students with special educational needs (MBPK) refer to children who have or require different educational needs from most other children. The effectiveness of teachers' teaching strategies in inclusive education can be seen when students respond very well to the learning provided to help students with dyscalculia master the subject taught.

e-Banking and Customer Satisfaction in Commercial Banks: A Case of Centenary Bank Main Branch-Mapeera House of Uganda

2024-05-18T19:56:50+00:00

This study aimed to investigate the correlation between electronic banking (e-banking) and customer satisfaction within Centenary Banks. Employing a cross-sectional survey design, the research involved 85 participants, from whom a sample of 70 was selected. Data collection was facilitated through a self-administered questionnaire. Rigorous data processing and analysis, utilizing relevant statistical software packages, were applied to evaluate the relationships explored in the study. The results demonstrated positive and significant associations between e-banking and customer satisfaction. Moreover, the findings indicated that the model could only account for a 24.4% variance in service quality. In summary, the study affirmed that independent variables such as e-banking, networking, and customer perceptions regarding service value were crucial predictors of service quality in Centenary Bank. Based on the conclusions drawn, the study recommends expanding the investigation to encompass factors not initially included in the model for a more comprehensive understanding of service quality at Centenary Bank. Additionally, it suggests that Centenary Bank's management place significant emphasis on e-banking and networking to enhance overall service delivery. Furthermore, the recommendation extends to conducting a longitudinal study to unveil the evolving nature of the subject. Finally, the model proposed in this study should be applied to explore sectors beyond the financial domain.

United States of America is a leading superpower in international politics and the infiltration of its constitutional system into other countries is quite conspicuous in many ways. The impact of it is manifest in the governance structure many Asian countries. Asia is an abode to different types of governments including long-established democracy, socialism and monarchies. This research studies and compares special Asian countries with the constitutional system of America as a model that has withstood the test to time since the 18^th century. This research finds that the question of whether Asia can adopt democracy was what preoccupied Lee Kuan Yew as an Asian and Singaporean statesman. However, diffusion theory penetrates Asia, and the continent begins to wax in democracy and constitutionalism. Written constitutions also dominate Asia with models of check and balance, impeachments, and elimination of dictatorship although its last vestiges are still in some parts of the continent.

Mapping the Key Actors of Rural Land Conflicts in Bangladesh

2024-05-18T22:44:16+00:00

Conflicts over rural land have plagued Bangladesh since its independence. Rural land issues continue to remain unresolved, and violence related to land is still on the rise. The investigation of those engaged in these disputes and the dynamics of their relationships, however, has received very little attention. The current study maps those involved in land conflicts and their relational interplay in the context of rural Bangladesh. The study utilizes qualitative method of data collection including KII interviews, focus group discussions, and expert interviews. Through purposive sampling, key informant interviews and focus group discussions involved a group of relevant stakeholders in land conflicts in the study areas who provided needed information, ideas, and insights on land issues in the area. The study finds that the power structure of the village affects benefit distribution and the resolution of land disputes. Local political leaders and "Matbors" have an impact on how disputes are resolved. Law enforcement authorities are ineffective at resolving violent conflicts, and corrupt land office staff are also of no help, prolonging such conflicts. The study suggests holding workshops on empathy-building, digitizing land management, and enhancing the court system to lessen disputes amongst stakeholders in rural Bangladesh.
