This study aimed to identify the motivations for engaging with sports clubs' social media accounts using the Use and Gratification Theory (U&G). Furthermore, it explored engagement activities based on the Consumers' Online Brand-Related Activities (COBRAs) approach. In addition, the study examined how engagement motivation influences engagement activities and how these activities affect brand attachment and brand loyalty. It used a quantitative approach with a questionnaire administered to 939 football fans in Oman and employed Smart PLS for structural equation modeling. The results indicated that "Consumption Activities" were rated highly (M=4.71), "Contributing Activities" received a medium rating (M=3.92), and "Creating Activities" were considered low (M=3.18). Information-Seeking and Brand Love were the most potent motivators, with means of (M=4.75) and (M=4.42), respectively, while Remuneration and Entertainment were the weakest, with means of (M=3.28) and (M=3.53), respectively. .....

Kajian ini bertujuan untuk menilai keberkesanan kaedah Drop Everything And Read (DEAR) dalam meningkatkan kemahiran penulisan cerpen dalam kalangan murid Tingkatan 4 yang mengambil mata pelajaran Bahasa Tamil. Permasalahan utama yang dikenal pasti ialah murid menghadapi kesukaran untuk mengembangkan idea, menggunakan kosa kata yang sesuai serta membina struktur ayat yang gramatis dalam penulisan cerpen, Selain itu, tahap minat membaca yang rendah turut mempengaruhi kualiti penulisan murid. Kajian ini menggunakan reka bentuk kajian kuasi eksperimen dengan satu kumpulan rawatan sahaja. Seramai 15 orang murid Tingkatan 4 telah dipilih sebagai responden kajian. Instrumen kajian terdiri daripada ujian pra dan ujian pasca yang melibatkan penulisan cerpen bertema sama bagi menilai tahap kemahiran penulisan murid sebelum dan selepas pelaksanaan kaedah DEAR. Intervensi DEAR telah dilaksanakan selama enam minggu, di mana murid diberi masa khusus untuk membaca bahan bacaan yang sesuai sebelum men.....

In this study, we propose two innovative numerical methods for solving Klein- Gordon equations: the Zafar Projected Differential Transform Method (ZPDTM) and the Laplace Projected Differential Transform Method (LPDTM). By integrating the Zafar and Laplace transforms respectively with the Projected Differential Transform Method, these approaches offer improved computational efficiency and enhanced solution accuracy. The performance of both methods is demonstrated through their application to linear and nonlinear forms of the Klein-Gordon equation, showing strong agreement with exact solutions and reduced computational overhead. These results highlight the versatility and reliability of ZPDTM and LPDTM in addressing complex differential models encountered in physics and engineering. Keywords Zafar Transform; Laplace Transform; Projected Differential Transform; Klein- Gordon equations; Exact solution..

Technology plays a crucial role in enabling educators to access and utilize information, facilitating knowledge acquisition and effective learning. The presence of appropriate equipment is vital for creating a learning environment where educators can actively engage with ideas, process and apply them, and connect them to real-world contexts. The integration of IoT technologies in educational settings has the potential to revolutionize teaching and learning practices, but its specific impact on educators' performance requires further investigation. This review research focuses on examining the influence of IoTrelated services in education on the performance of educators, with a particular emphasis on computer science colleges. The study encompasses primary research studies, academic papers, and reports that explore the effects of IoT-related services on educators' performance in computer science colleges. It identifies several factors that affect the effectiveness of educational IoT-rel.....

Colorectal cancer is the second most frequent kind of cancer worldwide. The treatment may comprise surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy. More than half of cancer treatments are derived from natural sources, such as capsaicin. The biggest challenge is to get the disease under control as much as possible while causing as little harm to the healthy tissues around it. Cells were treated with an extract, Capsaicin of (chili peppers) and irradiated at 1 Gy, 3 Gy and 5 Gy. The MTT test was used to determine viability, and absorbance was measured at 570 nm using a Counter reader (Mutiskan EX, Thermo Lab systems). Capsaicin extract has shown a potential radiosensitizing effect in vitro for colorectal cancer. The inhibition effect in the cell lines was not selective and is significantly different from conventional radiotherapy. Capsaicin extract from chili peppers concerted with radiation proved more effective in colorectal cancer cells than radiotherapy alone. Keywords Digital Transfor.....

Despite the importance of both rat dissection and alternatives for rat dissection, proponents for these alternatives became more apparent during the COVID-19 pandemic and post-pandemically. Incorporating humane education into the Malaysian education system, whereby 3R (reduction, replacement, or refinement) is urged, aligns with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Utilising technology is an essential component of any 21st-century learning. Therefore, this study was carried out to explore the need for alternatives in rat dissection that provide both a high learning experience and feasibility using the Systematic Literature Review (SLR). Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) technique is employed. Examining selected literature revealed a substantial positive effect on the student's learning experience regarding perception, task performance, exam performance, and motivation. It is found to be either superior or equivalent to the i.....

The aim of this study was to investigate the essential oil composition, phytochemicals, and antibacterial activity of Piper frustratum, Piperaceae. Essential oil was obtained from the leaves of P. frustratum via hydrodistillation and its chemical composition was determined using gas chromatography (GC) and gas chromatography mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Cold extraction was performed to obtain the leaf extract, followed by isolation of phytochemicals using column chromatography techniques, and structural elucidation was achieved via various spectroscopic methods in comparison with literature. Antibacterial activity was evaluated using micro-dilution method. Results showed that nineteen chemical constituents were identified in the essential oil of P. frustratum leaf, accounting for 99.6% of the total composition. The major constituents include _-caryophyllene (12.6%), _-asarone (10.7%), myristicin (10.4%), _-copaene (9.6%), methyl eugenol (7.2 %), and _-cubebene (6.5%). Isolation and purif.....
