Anti-Diarrhoeic and antibacterial Effects of Aqueous Pod Extract of Acacia nilotica in Albino Rats

The anti-diarrhoea effect of aqueous pod extract of Acacia nilotica was investigated in rats. The pod extract of A. nilotica was obtained by Soxhlet extraction using distilled water as a solvent and subjected to phytochemicalscreening. The result of phytochemical screening revealed the presence of saponins, tannins, alkaloids, cardiac glycosides, flavonoids, and reducing sugars. The elemental analysis of the extract revealed high concentration of sodium followed by magnesium, iron, cadmium, zinc, manganese and potassium. The aqueous extract significantly (

The role of subsidiaries in Global Value Chains (GVCs): an institutional voids perspective on LVC upgrading and integration

We explore the process through which MNE subsidiaries engage and retain a critical mass of small suppliers in Global Value Chains (GVCs) while addressing institutional voids in emerging markets. Using evidence from an interpretive inductive longitudinal case study in agribusiness, we draw on the GVC and institutional voids literatures to: (1) extend the GVC literature by offering a subsidiary-focused view of GVCs; and (2) demonstrate the dynamic process of void engagement through complementary institutional bridging activities. Our temporal sequencing of subsidiary institutional agency in response to different modalities of voids demonstrates a constellation of bridging activities that results from a dynamic interplay between voids and practice

Employee Engagement dan Kinerja Perawat dalam Pencegahan Penularan Infeksi Virus COVID-19

This study aims to analyze whether there is a relationship between the application of Employee Engagement and the performance of nurses in preventing the transmission of Covid-19 virus infection, especially at Madani Hospital and Update Hospital Palu. This research method is quantitative research with a cross-sectional approach. The results showed that after the Chi-Square test with an error rate of 0.05, the P-Value = 0.000 statistical test results were obtained. In conclusion, there is a significant relationship between Employee Engagement and the performance of nurses in handling the spread of the Covid-19 virus.   Keywords: Covid-19, Employee Engagement, Nurse Performance &nbsp

DIFFERENTIAL EFFECTIVENESS OF THINK-PAIR-SHARE PROGRAMMING STRATEGIES, CONVENTIONAL METHOD AND LEARNING STYLES ON THE PROGRAMMING ACHIEVEMENTS OF SECONDARY SCHOOL STUDENTS IN IJEBU EDUCATION DIVISION, OGUN STATE

This work examined the effects of the think-pair-share programming strategy on students’ achievement in programming. It also determined the moderating effect of learning styles on students’ achievement in programming. The study adopted a pretest-posttest-control group quasi-experimental research design. One hundred and twenty-two (122) students offering computer studies in senior secondary 2 from the two purposively selected public senior secondary schools in Ijebu Education Division of Ogun State constituted the sample. Computer Programming Achievement Test (CPAT, r = 0.760) and Learning Style Inventory (LSI, r= 0.83) were used for data collection.  Data obtained were analysed through inferential statistics of analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) using IBM SPSS Statistics 23. The finding indicated that the think-pair-share programming strategy significantly improved students’ achievement in the programming aspect of computer studies.  It was also found that learning style is not a strong factor in the learning of programming. The findings suggest that teachers should adopt the think-pair-share programming strategy in the teaching and learning of computer programming in senior secondary schools. It is therefore recommended that teacher education programme should include the strategy as one of the methods in the computer science methods courses to enable would-be teachers to master its nitty-gritty, since it worked in the senior secondary school. Also, the government and school authority should organize series of training through workshops and conferences to enable the teachers to acquire the skills to use the strategy.   &nbsp
