My Dead Mother

O ye children of Christian nurture, ye sons and daughters of Christian parentage, now wandering from the way in which ye were taught, if there yet remains a spark in you of filial love, of loyalty to the name you bear and to your father\u27s God, shall not the memory of your pious parents\u27 faith kindle that spark to a living, spreading flame?https://place.asburyseminary.edu/ecommonsatsdigitalresources/1106/thumbnail.jp

Go Out of Yourselves!

Living in yourself alone is as miserable thing as living to yourself alone. We all need something higher than ourselves to lean upon, to trust in, to love; and this is very beautifully expressed by the Psalmist when he says, Lead me to the rock that is higher than I.https://place.asburyseminary.edu/ecommonsatsdigitalresources/1315/thumbnail.jp

The Missionary Call

...every missionary sorely needs the sustaining power of a supreme conviction that he is called of God to the work in which he is engaged. The call of Moses was more sublime than that of Elisha, but not more real. It matters not how God may speak to those whom he would make his messengers, but the messenger ought to be sure that he is sent of God, and that,he goes forth authorized to speak for Jehovah.https://place.asburyseminary.edu/ecommonsatsdigitalresources/1176/thumbnail.jp

Contemplation of Anger: An Application of The Satipaṭṭhāna Sutta In Dispelling Anger

One of the widely written literature on the contemplative aspects of Buddhism is mindfulness, and Satipaṭṭhāna Sutta is one of the most important discourses related to mindfulness practice. Although the Sutta itself clearly suggests dispelling anger as one of the benefits of cultivating mindfulness, the application of mindfulness practice in dispelling anger is a very little studied subject. There are two sections in Satipaṭṭhāna Sutta that are closely related to contemplation of anger, namely ‘contemplation of mind’ (cittānupassanā) and ‘contemplation of hindrance’ (nīvaraṇapabba). According to these sections, the contemplation of anger helps in dispelling anger in three main ways, that is by enabling one to know the presence of anger, to abandon it, and to avert verbal and bodily expressions of anger. This paper examines these two sections and their application in dispelling anger. The examination is based mainly upon the Pāḷi canonical texts. Some commentarial texts and works related to mindfulness practice are also used whenever deemed practically relevant.DOI: http://doi.org/10.31357/fhss/vjhss.v06i01.0

The relative effects of inquiry method on the achievement of students in senior secondary school mathematics

This study investigated the relative effectiveness of inquiry method of teaching on senior secondary school one students’ achievement in algebra. The study was carried out in Onitsha education zone of Anambra state. four schools were selected out of 32 secondary schools in Onitsha education zone. These 32 schools were stratified according to gender. Two male and two female schools were selected by balloting from each stratum. The study has a sample size of 120 SS1 students randomly selected. The study was carried out using a quasi-experimental design. The scope of the content covered: i. Solution of simple linear equations ii. Solution of linear equations involving fractions iii. Addition and subtraction of algebraic fractions iv. Change of subject of formula. The experiment was carried out by a teacher whom the researcher trained. The instrument (AMAT) constructed by the researcher was administered as pre-test and post-test before and after the experiment. An internal consistency of 0.53 was obtained using K-R 20. This experiment lasted for four weeks of nine periods. The scores were collected after administering the instrument. The research questions were answered using mean and standard deviation while the analysis of variance (ANOVA) and chi square test were used in testing the null hypotheses. The results of the study showed that there is a significant difference between inquiry and expository methods in the mean achievement of students. Also at improving academic performance of students in algebra. Lastly, the male students benefitted more than the female counterparts in the inquiry approach. It was recommended among other things that teachers should adopt inquiry approach in teaching algebra.Dr Rev Sis M S C Kurume
