The contribution of the DOST-PCARRD AFNR Project 2.3 from SY 2009-2011 has demonstrated transformed changes in the AFNR curriculum. These changes are well recognized as it has attracted more enrollees in the region’s dwindling AFNR courses. The study presented the implementation of the AFNR Project 2.3 in Zamboanga Peninsula as an intervention to the observed down trend enrolment in the AFNR courses since SY 2001 onwards. The AFNR Project 2.3 was implemented for the duration of two years from SY Feb 2009-Feb 2011. The project at the regional level enabled students’ preparation for employability, equipped them with entrepreneurial skills, with the integration of strong S & T contents in the courses through the modular approach. The Western Mindanao State University (WMSU) played the lead institution in the region with three collaborating SUCs, namely, JH Cerilles State College (JHCSC), Zamboanga State College of Marine Sciences and Technology (ZSCMST), and the two campuses of Jose Rizal Memorial State University (JRMSU). Towards the end of its implementation for the second year, the project achieved the following gains based on its objectives: (a) Enriched 10 BS curricular programs (b) reviewed 81 AFNR subjects (c)enriched at least 70 courses in the 10 BS AFNR Programs and (d) introduced 30 short term courses respectively.

Effective notification and monitoring of students’ attendance are among the significant developments of any higher education institution must have. This study primarily focused on the design and development of an iNotify&Monitor System with Data Analytics using RFID and Mobile Broadband Technology. It is a 3-in-1 software that is intended to help Jose Rizal Memorial State University-Katipunan (JRMSU-K) Campus improve its procedures in notifying the students every time there are important announcements such as class cancellations, delays, schedule of activities or even a warning in case of emergency for their safety, monitoring students’ attendance, and examining enrolment and attendance records for better decision-making. The tools used in the development of this software were Microsoft Visual Studio C#, PHP, and MySQL. Based on the system evaluation, it was evaluated as “very effective”. It is then highly recommended that the system should be immediately utilized as it was viewed to improve the student management in the university.

A good reading comprehension could result to a better writing competence. However, a number of the Bachelor of Elementary Education students of Jose Rizal Memorial State University – Tampilisan Campus were observed to be a bit weak in the use of receptive and productive skills as evidenced by their responses in the teaching-learning situations. The study assessed the level of the receptive and productive skills of the 1st year BEEd students of JRMSU-TC, S.Y. 2012-2013. The study used the descriptive-evaluative method to determine the level of the receptive skills, namely, listening and reading comprehension, and productive skills, namely, speaking and writing competencies. The researchers conducted a test on the subjects using test questionnaires, picture cues, and composition writing. Using frequency counting, percentage, weighted mean and multiple regression analysis, the study revealed that majority of the subjects is “good” in their productive skills such as speaking and writing competencies. The students’ receptive skills, particularly in reading comprehension significantly relate to their writing ability, but there is an insignificant relationship between reading and speaking as well as in listening comprehension that negates their speaking and writing competencies. Therefore, a significant association exists between reading and writing, but there is no significant relationship between listening and speaking as well as into writing.

The goal of this research was to track graduates to their destination and employment status. The researchers used the modified survey questionnaire developed from the researchers and served as the method for data collection. Further, information was also obtained from yahoo and Facebook accounts and mobile or cellular phones. Of the 377 respondents, 288 graduates participated in the study and were drawn randomly from the master lists of 6,677 graduates of various academic programs offered from five-year spans School Year 2006 to 2010. The findings showed that the majority in their current position is casuals. It also showed that most of the respondents work in businesses or organizations related to education, wholesale and retail trade, financial intermediation, development, and public administration. Most of them, their present work is connected to the course they took at college. Programs with the highest percentage of working graduates, JRMSU ranked Engineering as the top program offered. Teacher education, on the other hand, has more employed graduates with the highest potential for full initial earnings. Finally, the profile information that best predicts the graduates' employment likelihood is gender, GPA, and licensure exam.

A new field emission scanning transmission electron microscope has been constructed for the NSF HREM facility at Arizona State University. The microscope is to be used for studies of surfaces, and incorporates several surface-related features, including provision for analysis of secondary and Auger electrons; these electrons are collected through the objective lens from either side of the sample, using the parallelizing action of the magnetic field. This collimates all the low energy electrons, which spiral in the high magnetic field. Given an initial field Bi∼1T, and a final (parallelizing) field Bf∼0.01T, all electrons emerge into a cone of semi-angle θf≤6°. The main practical problem in the way of using this well collimated beam of low energy (0-2keV) electrons is that it is travelling along the path of the (100keV) probing electron beam. To collect and analyze them, they must be deflected off the beam path with minimal effect on the probe position.

Bovine respiratory diseases cause serious economic loses and present diagnostic difficulties due to the variety of etiologic agents, predisposing conditions, parasites, viruses, bacteria and mycoplasma, and may be multiple or complicated. Several agents which have been isolated from the abnormal lungs are still the subject of controversy and uncertainty. These include adenoviruses, rhinoviruses, syncytial viruses, herpesviruses, picornaviruses, mycoplasma, chlamydiae and Haemophilus somnus.Previously, we have studied four typical cases of bovine pneumonia obtained from the Michigan State University Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratory to elucidate this complex syndrome by electron microscopy. More recently, additional cases examined reveal electron opaque immune deposits which were demonstrable on the alveolar capillary walls, laminae of alveolar capillaries, subenthothelium and interstitium in four out of 10 cases. In other tissue collected, unlike other previous studies, bacterial organisms have been found in association with acute suppurative bronchopneumonia.

The development of a scanning electron microscope (SEM) suitable for instructional purposes has created a large number of outreach opportunities for the Materials Science and Engineering (MSE) Department at Iowa State University. Several collaborative efforts are presently underway with local schools and the Department of Curriculum and Instruction (C&I) at ISU to bring SEM technology into the classroom in a near live-time, interactive manner. The SEM laboratory is shown in Figure 1.Interactions between the laboratory and the classroom use inexpensive digital cameras and shareware called CU-SeeMe, Figure 2. Developed by Cornell University and available over the internet, CUSeeMe provides inexpensive video conferencing capabilities. The software allows video and audio signals from Quikcam™ cameras to be sent and received between computers. A reflector site has been established in the MSE department that allows eight different computers to be interconnected simultaneously. This arrangement allows us to demonstrate SEM principles in the classroom. An Apple Macintosh has been configured to allow the SEM image to be seen using CU-SeeMe.

The Materials Science Department at Iowa State University has developed a laboratory designed to improve instruction in the use of the scanning electron microscope (SEM). The laboratory makes use of a computer network and a series of remote workstations in a classroom setting to provide students with increased hands-on access to the SEM. The laboratory has also been equipped such that distance learning via the internet can be achieved.A view of the laboratory is shown in Figure 1. The laboratory consists of a JEOL 6100 SEM, a Macintosh Quadra computer that acts as a server for the network and controls the energy dispersive spectrometer (EDS), four Macintosh computers that act as remote workstations, and a fifth Macintosh that acts as an internet server. A schematic layout of the classroom is shown in Figure 2. The workstations are connected directly to the SEM to allow joystick and computer control of the microscope. An ethernet connection between the Quadra and the workstations allows students seated there to operate the EDS. Control of the microscope and joystick is passed between the workstations by a switch-box assembly that resides at the microscope console. When the switch-box assembly is activated a direct serial line is established between the specified workstation and the microscope via the SEM’s RS-232.
