School Records

The study was carried out with the purpose of assessing school record management in FCT secondary schools. Record management is the area of administrative management that is concerned with achieving economy and efficiency in the creation, maintenance, use and disposal of records of an organization throughout its life cycle. Implementing good record management practices in schools would provide information for educational planners and administrators, serves as historical source for documenting history of the school. School records comprise all existing and accessible records, books, files and other documents containing useful information that relates to what goes on in the school system They are evaluation tools for accessing progress made by schools and also show evidence of compliance with legislative laws. The descriptive research design was used for this study. The population was drawn from ten (10) secondary schools in FCT. The instrument for data collection comprised of questionnaire titled “Assessment of School Record Management in Secondary Schools in FCT” (ASRMSS). A sample size of eighty respondents from schools was used. Simple percentage was adopted in analyzing the research questions while chi-square was adopted in analyzing the hypotheses. Research findings revealed that the various record books used in schools include: log-book, attendance register, lesson plan, syllabus, staff movement book, visitors’ book, admission and withdrawal register, to mention a few. It was also revealed in the findings that most of the records in school are not properly kept. Also, timely supply of school records, availability of funds, teachers’ training and proper back up of records were the solutions proffered by respondents. It was however recommended that stakeholders in the school should make use of the school’s record books for efficiency purposes. Furthermore, stakeholders should ensure timely update of record materials and finally, delegation and follow-up on record procedures should be given adequate attention by school principals.

Classroom management refers to the overall management of classroom resources, activities, and learners that result in a favourable environment for students' learning and balanced personality development. This task of effective classroom management is much more challenging and demanding on the part of teachers; therefore, the study aimed to investigate teachers' classroom management strategies at the secondary level. The study's objectives were; to find out the classroom management strategies of secondary schools' teachers, identify problems in the classroom management of secondary schools' teachers, and suggest strategies for effective classroom management at the secondary level. The population of the study was 5623 male secondary schools' teachers of district Swat. The researchers randomly selected a sample of 100 teachers for the study and developed a questionnaire to collect data. The data were gathered with self-administered questionnaires and analyzed with frequency,  percentages and Chi-square test. The study found the classroom management strategies of interactive discussion before classes, in the beginning, development of class rules in consultation with students, assigning individual, pair and group work to students, giving respect to the questions and answers of students and the use of body language to control misbehavior in the class,  identified the problem of difficulty in establishing rapport with students in the beginning of the classes and suggested the strategies of interactive discussion, development of rules in consultation with students, assigning roles to students, use of body gestures and provision of pleasure environment in classes for effective classroom management.

Herbicide Use

Weed management is a common practice in golf courses, home lawns, and sod production systems. Sulfonylurea (SU) herbicides were initially introduced in the agricultural market in 1982; however, SUs were also evaluated for control of weeds and overseeded grasses. Later, SUs were evaluated for selective control of broadleaf weeds, sedges, and kyllinga species in cool- and warm-season turfgrasses. In the 1990s, chlorsulfuron and metsulfuron were registered for selective control of broadleaf weeds, such as wild garlic, spotted spurge, and difficult-to-control grasses, such as bahiagrass in turfgrass. Now, there are several SUs registered for specific weed management in both cool- and warm-season turfgrasses. The current status of SUs, along with potential benefits and drawbacks in using these herbicides for weed management practices, are discussed. The research findings, possible recommendations in relation to the safety of turfgrass (established and overseeding stands), environmental concerns (persistence and lateral movement), and management practices in cool- and warm-season turfgrasses are discussed, including the potential evolution of weed resistance.

School Records

Administrative effectiveness in secondary schools is germane to making education relevant to the growth of the society.The operational processes and functions in school administration depend on the good management of the documented activities of the school programs, infrastructures, staff and students found in school records for successful executions. Previous studies found that school records were basically created in paper formats which ran into many volumes with the problems of inadequate storage and in-effective preservation methods among others, although the studies did not use the records life cycle in the appraisal of the records management practices. These reported poor records management practices made the retrieval of school records difficult and sometimes impossible resulting in in-effective school administration. This paper examines the influence of records management practices on administrative effectiveness in public secondary schools in Lagos State, Nigeria. Survey research design was adopted for this study and the instrument for data collection was a questionnaire administered on a sample size of360 administrative team members in public senior secondary schools in Lagos State, Nigeria. Data analysis was done using frequency counts and simple percentages to answer the research questions while regression analysis technique was employed to test he hypotheses. Research findings revealed that the schools have all the statutory and non- statutory records for proper and adequate administrative duties, the records management policy manual was available and the records management practices were based on the records life cycle in the public senior secondary schools in Lagos State. Additionally, the study found that the records creation stage was well managed while the maintenance and use stage were fairly managed and the disposition stage was poorly managed. Based on the findings, the study recommends the provision of equipment that would ensure that school records are properly stored, preserved and disposed to achieve best practices in records management for effective school administration.

Biocomplexity is an important mechanism for population resilience in changing environments. However, we are just beginning to understand how to identify biocomplexity so that species management efforts promote resilience and stability. Genomic techniques are emerging as an important method for identifying biocomplexity. Central Valley (CV) Chinook salmon are an example of a species at risk of extinction if better methods for identifying and protecting biocomplexity are not employed. To address this knowledge gap, we employed restriction site associated DNA sequencing to conduct the first genomic study of all major populations of CV Chinook salmon. We found greater population structure across the Central Valley than previously documented. Additionally, we show evidence for differentiation and adaptation within migratory phenotypes despite high levels of gene flow. We also determined that genomic data can vastly improve our ability to assign individuals to their natal populations, even as they mix during migration, a finding that will assist management practices. These results demonstrate how genomic study can greatly improve our ability to identify and conserve biocomplexity.

Essential Service

From the dawn of the history of the human race, agriculture has always been a profound activity of mankind producing food and feed as well as various plant originated materials for further processing. Agronomy, like any other human activity, depends on the perpetual development of knowledge and technical skills, - in a modern context – science and innovation. This paper is intended to provide the reader with information regarding the main phases of the development of agricultural production from the Neolithic societies through the early Mesopotamian and Egyptian empires to the inventions of first organised learned society of Rome. The major research findings of the past two millennia including agro-chemistry, genetics and technical development are presented. Such a review should not lead to any scientific conclusions, but rather a philosophical postulate similar to that of Jonathan Swift written some centuries ago: “And he gave it for his opinion, that whoever could make two ears of corn, or two blades of grass, to grow upon a spot of ground, where only one grew before, would deserve better of mankind, and do more essential service to his country, than the whole race of politicians put together”.

This research is aimed at investigating the readiness of History subject teachers in teaching and learning with the help of i-Think mind maps at secondary schools in the district of Setiu, Terengganu. The amount of sample chosen is 59 History teachers from secondary schools which consists of trained teachers without taking into account their specialisation. As a whole, the research findings show that respondents have a high readiness level in implementing their teaching and learning process with the help of i-Think mind maps in secondary schools. The findings also show that there is a difference in teacher readiness between history teacher and non-history teacher and between those that went to courses and those who did not. Furthermore, there is a difference in the attitude, skill and usage level of i-Think mind maps in teachers that are experienced and those less experienced. However, research findings for experienced and less-experienced teachers showed that there are no significant differences in the level of knowledge on the concept of i-Think mind maps.

In statistics, there are various terms that may feel unfamiliar to researcher who is not accustomed to discussing it. However, despite all of many functions and benefits that we can get as researchers to process data, it will later be interpreted into a conclusion. And then researcher can digest and understand the research findings. The distribution of continuous random opportunities illustrates obtaining opportunities with some detection of time, weather, and other data obtained from the field. The standard normal distribution represents a stable curve with zero mean and standard deviation 1, while the t distribution is used as a statistical test in the hypothesis test. Chi square deals with the comparative test on two variables with a nominal data scale, while the f distribution is often used in the ANOVA test and regression analysis.
