The Effect of Programmed Exercises Using an Intelligent Expert System Based on Computer Vision in Motion Modeling and the Accuracy of Double Kicks Performed by Young Taekwondo Players
This study aimed to reveal the effect of programmed exercises using an intelligent expert system based on computer vision in motor modeling and the accuracy of double kicks performed by young taekwondo players. The research problem highlights the inadequacy of traditional observation in monitoring subtle mechanical deviations during fractions of a second, leading to an imbalance in the trajectory of the second kick and a loss of angular momentum. The researcher used an experimental approach by designing two equivalent groups on a purposive sample of 20 players from the National Centre for Sports Talent for the 2025-2026 season. The technical tools included high-speed cameras and a tracking algorithm (33 joint points) to build a digital motion model that compares player performance to global standards.

Increasing Junior High Learners Motivation and Participation in Physical Education through Game-Based Warm-Up Activities
This study examined the effectiveness of game-based warm-up activities in increasing learners’ motivation and participation in Physical Education (PE). Using a one-group pretest -posttest design, changes in ARCS motivation components Attention, Relevance, Confidence, and Satisfaction were assessed. Participants were junior high school learners with modest family incomes, large households, and limited home support. Data were collected via ARCS pre- and post-tests, SIMS scales, and teacher evaluation forms, and analyzed using weighted mean and paired sample t-tests. Results showed very high post-intervention motivation (WM = 3.58), with notable gains in Confidence (WM = 3.68), Relevance (WM = 3.57), Attention (WM = 3.53), and Satisfaction (WM = 3.52). Paired t-tests confirmed statistically significant improvements with large to very large effect sizes, indicating meaningful impacts of the intervention. Teachers also strongly agreed that motivation (WM = 3.40) and participation (WM = 3.89) improved. The study concludes that game-based warm-up activities effectively foster motivation, engagement, and active participation in Physical Education. An enhancement action plan is recommended to further strengthen lower-gain areas and address contextual challenges.
Examining How School Assistance Affects Teachers’ Inclusive Teaching Practices
This study aimed to determine the relationship between school support and the implementation of inclusive education among teachers at Liloan Central School during the 2025–2026 school year, serving as a basis for a proposed Action Plan. The demographic profile of the respondents—including age, gender, educational attainment, length of service, and teaching position—was collected to provide context for interpreting the results. Data were gathered through a structured survey questionnaire measuring teachers’ perceived level of school support and their application of inclusive education practices in classrooms. Descriptive statistics, including frequency counts, percentages, and weighted means, were used to analyze the level of school support and extent of implementation, while Pearson’s correlation coefficient was applied to examine the relationship between the two variables. Findings revealed that the majority of respondents were female, mid-career teachers, with many holding a bachelor’s degree and occupying entry-level positions. Teachers generally perceived moderate to high levels of school support, particularly in the provision of teaching materials, administrative encouragement, and guidance on lesson adaptation. Inclusive education practices were implemented often, with frequent use of inclusive assessments, collaboration with SPED specialists, and classroom management strategies that promote inclusion. However, modifying teaching strategies and maintaining high academic expectations for all students were less frequently applied. Correlation analysis indicated a negligible and non-significant relationship between perceived school support and the extent of implementation, suggesting that other factors, such as teacher competence and motivation, play a greater role in inclusive education practices. The study recommended the implementation of an Action Plan.
Validated Modular Learning in TLE Dressmaking: Exhibiting its Effects on the Academic and Hands-on Competency of Students
This research evaluated the effectiveness of developed dressmaking learning modules in improving the academic performance and hands-on competencies of Junior High School learners under the Technical-Vocational- Livelihood (TVL) Garments specialization in selected public secondary schools in the South District, Division of Mandaue City, for School Year 2024–2025. The modules were assessed based on content quality, clarity of instructions, alignment with curriculum standards, and usability in both classroom and modular settings. Findings revealed that learners demonstrated significant improvement in their academic achievement, progressing from an Average Mastery Level in the pretest (M = 3.7) to a Level of Closely Approximating Mastery in the posttest (M = 8.2). Hands-on performance also increased notably, with learners achieving Excellent competence in garment construction and Very Satisfactory ratings in basic sewing techniques and creativity. Statistical analysis confirmed a significant difference between pre- and post-implementation performance, validating the modules as an instructional intervention. The study further revealed that while both teachers and learners rated the modules as Strongly Agree in terms of acceptability, challenges such as limited access to sewing machines, insufficient materials, and reduced motivation in modular learning environments persisted. These findings underscore the importance of providing resource support and structured facilitation to maximize module utilization. It is recommended that schools institutionalize the developed modules, provide sewing kits or practice hubs, and integrate feedback mechanisms and video-based demonstrations. The study concludes that well- designed learning modules, when paired with adequate support systems, can significantly enhance both theoretical understanding and practical competency in TVL programs.
Improving Oral Communication Skills in Early Childhood English Education through Communicative Activities
The development of oral communication skills in early childhood English education has become a priority in contemporary language pedagogy, particularly in contexts where English is taught as a foreign language (EFL). This paper discusses the efficiency of the communicative activities that could be implemented in order to develop the oral communication skills among preschool learners. Based on CLT principles and early childhood pedagogy, the study develops an approach that infuses communicative, interactive, play-based, and child-centered practices into the teaching of English. Using a quasi-experimental research design, two independents control and experimental groups of preschool learners were used. Collection of data through observation, oral performance tasks and pre-test and post-test. These results show that the communicative activities help to improve learners speaking fluency, pronunciation, vocabulary, and willingness to communicate. The article comes to the conclusion that the systematic incorporation of communicative activities into the process of teaching and learning early years English directs positive pedagogical conditions for the encapsulation in oral communication skills.
Beyond the Bubble Sheet: How Generative AI May Finally Liberate Assessment from Multiple-Choice Testing
Multiple-choice questions (MCQs) have dominated educational assessment for decades, particularly in large-scale and high-stakes examinations. Their popularity rests on perceived efficiency, reliability, and objectivity. However, extensive research has highlighted their serious limitations, including construct underrepresentation, susceptibility to guessing, shallow measurement of understanding, and negative washback on learning. This article argues that recent advances in generative artificial intelligence (GenAI), such as large language models, create a realistic opportunity to move beyond MCQs toward open-ended, constructed-response assessment at scale. GenAI systems have the ability to preserve administrative efficiency by automating the evaluation of student-generated answers while significantly increasing validity and insight into student thinking. In this article, we discuss why MCQs remain deeply entrenched in higher education, the pedagogical and epistemic costs of this dependence, and how GenAI-enabled assessment is likely to transform the nature of student preparation and the assessment of learning. The article concludes by describing the circumstances under which GenAI-based assessment can be responsibly implemented and the issues that remain to be worked through.
Increasing students' interest in science using modern media technologies
The purpose of this study is to explore the use of modern media technologies in the field of physics education in terms of expanding the interest of students and their cognitive activity. The introduction discusses possible drawbacks of traditional teaching practices for the understanding of abstract physical concepts. The gap in knowledge is that multimedia, virtual laboratories, and interactive platforms are not sufficiently pedagogically integrated to actively engage learners instead of having them as passive recipients. The approach is based on theoretical analysis of pedagogical and psychological literature and practical observation of media technology use in physics classes. Results show a strong effect of media for attention, comprehension, retention, and transfer of problem-solving skills between text and multimedia visualizations such as simulations and virtual experiments. The results indicate that combining these digital tools with interactive teaching methods leads to more effective learning and greater motivation. According to the study, the scientifically well-founded and didactically balanced targeted use of media technologies can change physics lessons and promote learning quality. It can open doors to independent and research-based learning and thinking.

This paper will provide an analysis of the formation, evolution and aesthetic features o f the marsīya (elegy) in modern Uzbek poetry. Marsiya, in the Indian subcontinent, is a poem written to commemorate the death of a great and eminent person. Based on text and comparative or contrastive method, the article studies how personal grief, social fact and national consciousness can be expressed in elegiac poems. Of particular note are the elegies of Cho‘lpon and Shuhrat, which show how the genre moved from classical lamentation to a modern literary vehicle charged with symbolic resonance, emotional depth, and social significance. The study shows that the structure of mourning and lamentation in new Uzbek poetry breathed life into marsiya turning it into an interpretative possibility to be engaged at a more complex level, as vehicle for philosophical thought, social critic, guardian of the cultural memor.
Knowledge of Road Traffic Signs and Accident Prevention Practices Among Commercial Bus Drivers in Obio-Akpor Lga of Rivers State
Commercial bus drivers constitute a significant portion of road users and play important role in the development of modern societies socially and economically. Like every other profession, they are exposed to occupational accidents with the attendant morbidity and mortality. This study investigated the knowledge of road signs and accident prevention practices among commercial bus drivers in Obio-Akpor local government area of Rivers State. A descriptive survey design was adopted for the study. Six research questions and four hypotheses were formulated to guide the study. The population of the study comprised of all commercial bus drivers in Obio-Akpor LGA, Rivers State. A self-structured questionnaire titled, “Knowledge of Road Signs and Accident Prevention Practices among Commercial bus Drivers” with a correlation coefficient of 0.81 was used to elicit information from two hundred respondents who participated in the study.

Essentializing Basic Education: Focusing Core Teaching Motivation and Performance for Desired Results
This study examined the key outcome areas in the efficient provision of basic education services and work task motivation among teachers in Tudela District, Cebu Province, during the 2024–2025 school year. The findings provide a basis for developing an instructional engagement plan. Demographic data revealed that school heads were generally older than teachers. The profession remained female-dominated (66.43%), emphasizing the need for gender inclusivity in leadership roles. Most teachers pursued higher education, with 60.14% having master’s degree units and 26.57% holding a completed master’s degree, yet only 4.90% had doctoral-level studies. The study assessed instructional effectiveness across various domains, including class preparation, curriculum planning, and professional engagement. Teachers demonstrated efficient performance in content knowledge, pedagogy, and instructional delivery, effectively adapting strategies to diverse learners. A moderate positive correlation between teacher motivation and performance highlighted the importance of continuous support and professional development. Despite these strengths, challenges such as misalignment with educational standards, outdated supervisory models, and inadequate technological integration were identified, indicating the need for curriculum updates and training programs. The findings concluded that teachers’ instructional motivation corresponded moderately to their performance, which was rated as very efficient. Addressing identified concerns through policy reforms, professional development initiatives, and enhanced instructional strategies can improve teaching effectiveness and learning outcomes. Proposed measures are envisioned for its enhancement.
Influence of Yoga on the Reduction of Second Language Anxiety
In the teaching of English in India, second language anxiety is a prevalent occurrence. Teachers frequently fail to recognize worried pupils and blame bad performance or lack of enthusiasm for their reluctance to participate in speaking assignments. This article's goal is to determine how much yoga can lessen anxiety related to learning a second language. Yoga is a very effective method for reducing stress and anxiety. Three elements make up the practice of yoga: breath control exercises, moderate stretching, and meditation as a mind-body intervention. According to a descriptive study, yoga practice has a significant impact on anxiety related to learning a second language, and there are significant differences between individuals who practice yoga and those who do not.

A Comparative Analysis of China and Uzbekistan’s Higher Education Internationalization Policies Under The Belt and Road Initiative
Against the backdrop of the Belt and Road Initiative promoting transnational educational cooperation, the internationalization of higher education has become a key direction for educational development in both China and Uzbekistan. This comparative analysis looks at the internationalisation policies for higher education in each country. The research investigates policy goals, avenues for policy and policy support. The findings demonstrate that the higher education internationalization policy orientation, with its strong combination between "inviting in" and "going global," mainly serves to national strategies and regional development needs in China. It has also outlined an action system by encouraging cooperative education, establishing international student exchange mechanisms, and generating policy support and capital investment to promote the support system. However, Uzbekistan's policy is aimed at the integration of educational resources, their compliance with global standards in order to ensure the competitiveness of higher education and attract as many foreign students as possible. Curriculum standardization and the construction of transnational education cooperation platform becomes the comprehensive requirement for its implementation, and its support mechanisms featured by the supervisions of educational quality. However, the two countries differ in the priority and the strength of implementation for their core policy priorities, even as similarities emerge in the development of transnational educational co-operation mechanisms and promotion of cultural exchange in general. This study presents concrete conclusions that may benefit the depth of higher education cooperation and further development of China and Uzbekistan internationalization policies.

Role of Guidance and Counselling in Shaping Career Choice among Senior Secondary School Students in Emohua Local Government Area, Rivers State
The study was set out to investigate the effect of guidance and counselling services on career decision-making processes of senior secondary school students in Emohua Local Government Area, Rivers State. With two research questions and two corresponding hypotheses, the study was descriptive survey in nature. The tar get population was all students in the public secondary schools of Emohua, from which a sample of about 900 stu dents was selected with the stratified random sampling technique at 25% proportion to achieve demographic equilibrium. The instrument developed by the researcher was called "Guidance and Counselling Impact on Career Decision-Making Questionnaire (GCICDMQ)" Reliability of GCICDMQ measured using Cronbach Alpha ranged from 0.82 to 0.89 during initial test administration phase. The study questions were answered through the use of means and standard deviations, while hypotheses were tested using independent t-tests with a significance level set at 0.05. The findings revealed that counselling interventions have been highly instrumental in rendering the students towards appropriately informed careen options resulting from improved self-awareness and reliable occupational information, the focus of their interests with vocational programme, and mismatched aspirations. Important barriers known were the shortage of counsellors and irregularity in career advising sessions. Therefore, suggestions were centered on the need for more vocational counsellors, career seminars as part of curriculum activities and also in conclusion to collaborate with industries within the locality for mentor programs and embedding career guidance within regular academic schedules in an effort to fine-tune students' occupational choices. Finally, the study has confirmed the key role of guidance and counselling in helping secondary school students in Emohua develop purposeful and viable career decisions.
Developing Professional Competence in Law Students Through Legal English
Legal English strengthens law students’ professional competence most effectively when it is taught as legal work rather than as isolated language practice. This article presents an English for Specific Purposes (ESP) teaching model organized around the tasks law students must perform in study, practice, and assessment: close reading of cases, case brief writing, complaint-letter writing, debates, role plays, moot-court simulations, and presentations on criminal cases. The model targets three connected outcomes: accurate legal terminology in context, structured legal reasoning, and confident professional communication, and it supports TOLES readiness by building legal vocabulary-in-context and controlled grammar through repeated, exam-relevant performance tasks. The TOLES system includes Foundation, Higher, and Advanced levels, with official online exam formats and level descriptors available to candidates.
Learner Autonomy in The Legal English Classroom (Evidence from Tashkent State University of Law)
With mastering professional skills as well as the language proficiency in ESP, learner autonomy comes to light as a prerequisite for successful learning in ESP. This study investigates learner autonomy in the Legal English class of Tashkent State University of Law, specifically the impact of autonomy-oriented teaching on the students’ learning behaviors, motivation, and autonomous output of Legal English. A qualitative-mixed methods (questionnaires, classroom observations and semi-structured interviews of undergraduate law students) study was conducted to investigate the use of classroom questioning at a university in Victoria, Australia. The results show that these autonomy-supportive Practices increase students' interest, self-management and, self-efficacy in dealing with legal texts and legal tasks. This led to an improvement in students' self-determination in setting their own learning objectives, independent research of legal resources, and introduction of Legal English in real-life contexts. Time management and self-evaluation skills, to be developed gradually with appropriate guidance, were mentioned as challenges areas, especially for learners previously accustomed to teacher-centered learning. The study highlights the necessity of promoting learner autonomy at the Centre of Legal English teaching and offers implications for teaching ESP in legal contexts.

Cross‑Cultural Phonation Patterns as Indicators of Emotional States in Film
This research aims to analyse how phonation types—modal, breathy, creaky, falsetto, and whisper—signal emotional states in film dialogue. The study examines English dialogues from the 1991 American romantic comedy Father of the Bride and compares it with a Karakalpak movie, Civilizaciya(Civilization), to identify cross-linguistic and cultural differences in emotional voice quality. Auditory phonetic analysis of selected scenes—primarily regarding vocal fold vibration, airflow, and voice quality changes and their context of emotion. Results reveal that phonation variation signals specific emotions and enhances audience understanding of character psychology, while differences between the two films suggest that cultural prosody and acting traditions drive differences in the production and interpretation of emotional phonation.
A Comparative Analysis of Ethical Behavior Models in Karakalpak and English Ethnic Communities
This study examines ethical behavior in British and Karakalpak cultures through a cross-cultural analysis of linguokinemes—kinetic units of language that convey social and ethical norms. Based on 19th-century literary texts and contemporary sources, we analyze the use of handshakes, physical contact, gaze, and facial expressions, highlighting both commonalities and differences in ethical norms and social interaction styles. The methodology includes categorization of positive, negative, conditionally positive, and conditionally negative nominations, construction of thematic clusters, and comparison within and between cultures. Results reveal that handshakes and physical contact are used differently across the two cultures, reflecting historical, religious, and social influences, while gaze and facial expressions serve as significant indicators of passive-aggressive behavior and emotional attitudes. The study demonstrates that variations in laughter and smiles, as well as the frequency and type of kinesic actions, can inform psycholinguistic profiles and deepen understanding of cultural expectations, ethical norms, and social cohesion within and across ethnolinguistic communities.
Assessment of Educational Program Evaluation in Senior Secondary Schools in Rivers State Based on Wheeler’s Cyclic Model
This study investigated the assessment of educational program evaluation in senior secondary schools in Rivers State based on Wheeler Cyclic Model. Correlational research design was employed for the study. Three research questions and three null hypotheses guided the study. The population of the study consists of 2,850 teachers from both public and private senior secondary schools in the study area. The simple random sampling technique was used to draw 200 teachers as the sample size of the study of the study. Data was collected using self-designed questionnaire titled: Wheeler’s Cyclic Model and Program Evaluation Scale (WCMPES) and validated by experts in measurement and evaluation. The corrections and contributions made by experts were built into the final drafting of the instruments. 0.86 was obtained as a measure of internal consistency using Cronbach Alpha statistical formula. Data obtained were analysed using Pearson Product Moment Coefficient to answer the research questions and tested the null hypotheses at 5% probability level. The results showed that (i) teachers’ relate moderately to effective program evaluation assessment, (ii) teachers’ integrating Wheeler’s cyclic model significantly relate moderately to practicing program evaluation in senior secondary schools, (iii) teachers’ facing the challenges in applying Wheeler’s cyclic model in programme evaluation in schools. Recommendations were made for further improvement.

Darkness at the Roots: Generation of Life and the Birth of Stories Amidst Darkness in Karnad’s Naga-Mandala
Karnad’s Naga-Mandala is replete with darkness. Darkness is all around— in the “sanctum of a ruined temple” (1), in the homes from where the flames and the narrators of stories arrive, the darkness is in the locked room of Rani, in the streets of the villages at night, in Kurudavva’s blind eyes, in the anthill and in the darkness of the storyteller’s heart awaiting the birth of a story. Everywhere that darkness prevails in the different corners of the play, whether in the sanctum or the cemetery, everywhere is a ground that swells with the prognostication of a story. The Naga’s transformation into a lover and Rani’s transformation into a mother are all magical spells of the darkness. The darkness breeds stories and holds the potential of making them real. The transmigration from Rani’s dreams to the reality of her existence is studied in this article as the mystery of her life make her a deity and her realization of sexuality give her a realization of her identity.
THE ROLE OF PHRASEOLOGICAL UNITS IN LANGUAGE ACQUISITION AND VOCABULARY DEVELOPMENT
Phraseological units, commonly known as idioms and fixed expressions, play a significant role in the process of language acquisition and vocabulary development. This article examines the cognitive, linguistic, and pedagogical functions of phraseological units in enhancing learners’ lexical competence. It highlights how the acquisition of idiomatic expressions helps learners understand figurative meanings, improve communicative fluency, and strengthen their overall linguistic intuition. The study also explores the relationship between phraseological competence and vocabulary expansion, arguing that exposure to idioms fosters deeper semantic processing and long-term retention of new lexical items. Furthermore, the article reviews effective instructional strategies that integrate phraseological units into language teaching, emphasizing the advantages of contextual learning and corpus-based approaches. The findings suggest that systematic incorporation of phraseological units into educational frameworks can significantly improve learners’ linguistic proficiency and communicative competence.

This paper investigates the utility of OER in Environmental Adult Education (EAE), a crucial field for empowering adults to be environmentally-sustainable, cope with climate change and become ecological citizens. Based on transformative learning theory and connectivist pedagogy, this paper provides a critical analysis of the way OER supports content delivery,active learning and reduces inequity in environmental education. Based on worldwide trends, cases from Africa, and Nigerian experiences, the research identifies the prospects and challenges of OER-integration within EAE programmes. The paper concludes with some policy direction aimed at enhancing OER infrastructure, content localisation and institutional capability in adult learning ecosystems.
Effective Methods for Enhancing Students’ Emotional Intelligence in The Education System
This research illustrates effective approaches in relation to how we can promote emotional intelligence in the education system, given its importance at the individual level while attaining academic performance, experiencing psychological well-being, and establishing healthy socio-emotional interactions. While emotional intelligence is well-established as a driver of learning, very little is known about the ways in which the educational environments themselves can provide systematic development of students emotional, social, and reflective skills. Through qualitative analysis of evidence-based psychological theories and practices in the educational field, the study assesses four domains of emotional intelligence self-awareness, self-management, social-awareness, and relationship management, discussing challenges related to students, teachers, and socio-cultural misunderstandings around emotional literacy. The findings indicate that the integration of interactive practices, role-playing, reflective exercises, and teacher-training practices lead to significantly improved empathy, communication, conflict management, and resilience in students. This shows that school climate and relationships with teachers are considered separate constructs yet the results show that emotionally supportive climates and strong teacher-student relationships underpin emotional growth and academic performance. The findings indicate that educational institutions need to implement formal emotional-intelligence programs, improve psychological services, and establish monitoring systems to help both teachers and students. Encouraging emotional intelligence skills not only improves learning skills but also contributes to the consolidation of emotional intelligence, social competence and mental health in the long run.
