The schur multipliers, nonbelian tensor squares and capability of some finite p-groups

The homological functors and nonabelian tensor product have its roots in algebraic K-theory as well as in homotopy theory. Two of the homological functors are the Schur multiplier and nonabelian tensor square, where the nonabelian tensor square is a special case of the nonabelian tensor product. A group is said to be capable if it is a central factor group. In this research, the Schur multiplier, nonabelian tensor square and capability for some groups of order p3, p4, p5 and p6 are determined. An algebraic computation of the center, derived subgroups, abelianization, Schur multipliers, nonabelian tensor squares and capability of the groups are determined with the assistance of Groups, Algorithms and Programming (GAP) software. Using the results of the center, derived subgroups and abelianization, the Schur multiplier, nonabelian tensor square and capability for the groups are determined. The nonabelian tensor squares and capability are also determined using the results of the Schur multipliers. The Schur multiplier of each of the groups considered is found to be trivial or abelian. The results show that the nonabelian tensor square of the groups are always abelian. In addition, a group has been shown to be capable if it has a nontrivial kernel or it is an extra-special p-group with exponent p

On some Abelian p-groups and their capability

A group is said to be capable if it is a central factor group; equivalently, if and only if a group is isomorphic to the inner automorphism group of another group. In this research, the capability of some abelian pgroups which are groups of order p4 and p5, where p is an odd prime are determined. The capability of the groups is determined by using the classifications of the groups

Teaching methods of integrated Naqli and Aqli knowledge for gifted and talented muslim students / Nur Fazidah Asmuje... [et al.]

Malaysia Education Curriculum mostly adapted from the colonization country since pre-independence. It makes Muslim youngers forget on magnificent of Islam Civilization especially Abbasid Dynasty. By this, the needs of integrating naqli and aqli knowledge in syllabus should be implemented especially among gifted and talented Muslim students. Therefore, this paper focusing on the implementation of integrated naqli and aqli knowledge for Biology’s topic as enhancement programmes in gifted and talented curriculum. 56 students from PERMATA Insan who are recognized as gifted and talented students have been participated in this study. The integrated knowledge was conducted through two different approaches including conventional (Method A) and co-teaching (Method B) to identify the suitable teaching method. As result, 47 out of 56 students who were exposed with co-teaching method obtained moderate and high achievement. The students’ mark was continuously analysed through t-test to identify the significance difference between two methods. Admittedly, the co-teaching method contributed higher mark during the post-test compared to without co-teaching method. Therefore, co- teaching method is the effective teaching method for integrated naqli and aqli knowledge especially in inheritance topic

Healthy sleep behaviour as weight loss strategy in managing obesity among women in Malaysia : a review

The development of overweight and obesity among women in Malaysia has shown an increasing trend between the year 2003 and 2014 base on the Malaysian Adult Nutrition Survey report in 2015. The prevalence of obesity was significantly higher in women by 22.9% compared to men 14.5%. There are many factors contributing to the upsurge of obesity among women and among most, sleep disorders has been the emerging issue which has longed been discussed. Certain important factors affecting women related to sleep quality such as stress, insomnia, depression and some biological conditions like menopause, menstrual cycle and pregnancy can affect sleep quality. This paper serves to review how lack of sleep quality is associated to the development of obesity and why healthy sleep behaviour could aid to weight loss. Public health approaches to reducing the burden of obesity must consider equipping the women in managing their sleep related issues and how they are able to control the food consumption and lifestyle of the family. Thus, promoting healthy sleep behaviour among women emphasized on the importance of deriving sleep quality through three important factors that is early bed time, sleep in the dark and sleep duration would be a contributing factor in managing obesity through healthy lifestyle changes

The effects of healthy sleep campaign towards the intention to practice healthy sleep behaviour in managing obesity among Malay women

In today’s climate, obesity management should be extended beyond the conventional manner of the sole emphasis on diet and exercise. The newly-emerging issues of sleep in the current obesity prevalence would benefit from being highlighted as an important indicator in managing the medical condition via lifestyle changes. Therefore, this called for the positioning of sleep in a form of a campaign to create awareness regarding the gravity behind healthy sleep. With that mentioned, this study looked into the effect of Healthy Sleep Campaign towards the intention to practice healthy sleep behaviour in order to lose weight, using the Theory of Planned Behaviour. The one-time campaign was executed with the participation of 400 obese Malay women aged between 18 and 55 years old in the state of Melaka, where they were asked to complete a survey form. Such step appeared to be integral in measuring whether the knowledge gained from the campaign was indeed capable of influencing their respective intentions to perform healthy sleep behaviour in achieving weight loss. Subsequent statistical analysis was undertaken for both the measurement and structural models respectively using the Partial Least Square Structural Equation Model (PLS-SEM). Based on the analysis, the Healthy Sleep Campaign was found to pose a significantly direct influence on all predictors in the study. Furthermore, it was also capable of moderating the relationship between the predictors towards the intention to practice healthy sleep behaviour. However, the study was primarily limited by the measurement, as it was focused on the intention to perform healthy sleep behaviours instead of looking into the actual behavioural changes themselves. Nevertheless, the results indicated important implications regarding the possible planning and implementation of healthy sleep campaign in a structured manner alongside lifestyle practices in managing obesity beyond diet and exercising. Moreover, suggestions for future research were also made specifically in measuring behavioural changes towards healthy sleep as a new weight loss factor, as well as exploring the impacts of healthy sleep behaviour in managing obesity

Satisfaction towards an enrichment programmes: Halal action for young scientists camp / Nur Fazidah Asmuje … [et al].

Early teenager is a stage to develop individual interest, skills, and preferences which are salient for the future. An enrichment programme is one of the approaches to disclose teenager’s interest. This study aims to identify the effectiveness of Halal Action for Young Scientists Camp as an enrichment programme for secondary school students. A week-long camp were administered by Kolej PERMATA Insan USIM to expose ‘halal’ and ‘thoyyib’ education with scientific analysis. In addition, this study also identifies the elevation of science interest through five modules that were exposed through this camp. A survey was given to obtain the overall feedback of the camp including trainers, modules and facilities. Participants in this study were 22 students in total from various secondary schools in Malaysia who participated in the camp. The data analysis was calculated using descriptive and inferential statistic. The results of data processing shows that this camp was suitable as an enrichment programme through five related modules. Most of the students have deepened their interest in science after participating in this camp

The homological functors of some finite two-generator two-groups of nilpotency class two

The homological functors are originated in homotopy theory. One of the homological functors, namely the nonabelian tensor square, was introduced by Brown and Loday in 1987. Meanwhile, the rest of the homological functors were introduced by Bacon and Kappe in 2003. Some of the homological functors are J (G), �(G), exterior square, the Schur multiplier, �(G), the symmetric square and J�(G). The nonabelian tensor square and some homological functors of some finite two-generator two-groups of nilpotency class two are determined in this research. A software named Groups, Algorithms and Programming (GAP) is used to compute and verify the nonabelian tensor square and some homological functors of some finite two-generator two-groups of nilpotency class two
