This research explains facts and characteristics factually and carefully, which will later be drawn to conclusions. The participants in this study consisted of 4 people: three students and an English teacher. This study collected data using observation, interview, and test techniques. The results showed that learning using flashcard media improved students' memory in learning English for class V at SDN 2015/IV Jambi. The increase in students' vocabulary can be seen from the observation results, which increased by several points, and the test results, which increased by 15%. Apart from observations and tests, the results of interviews also show that the use of flash card media can attract students' attention so that their memory of the new vocabulary also acquired increases.","PeriodicalId":137793,"journal":{"name":"Electronic Journal of Education, Social Economics and Technology","volume":"86 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121044780","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The purpose of the study was to find out of solid waste management practice. The descriptive survey design research was used for the study. The sample size of three hundred (300) respondents was used for the study. Five (5) quarters was selected for the study. Five (5) streets were selected from each of the quarters. The simple random sampling technique was used to select sixty (60) houses from each quarter. The instrument for the study contained twenty-nine (29) items structured questionnaire adapted from O’Leary (2014). A test-retest method of reliability was used, using Pearson’s Product Moment Correlation (PPMC). A coefficient of 0.67 was obtained at 0.05 level of significance. Chi-Square (x2) was used to test the hypotheses, at 0.05 alpha level. The finding of the study on burning of refuse as a solid waste management practice revealed that, the Null hypothesis was rejected therefore the result was significant. The researcher recommended that adequate attention must be given to waste management in order to safe guard human health.","PeriodicalId":137793,"journal":{"name":"Electronic Journal of Education, Social Economics and Technology","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122328136","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Based on the findings, enrichment activities were proposed. The descriptive method was utilized in interpreting the data gathered from the rating sheets showing the students’ English grades, and the adapted questionnaire, testing the skills. Simple Percentage, Weighted Mean, MPS, and T-test were used as statistical tools. The Grade 8 students were Fairly Satisfactory in listening, speaking, and viewing, while they Did Not Meet Expectations in reading and writing. Overall, their performance level was Fairly Satisfactory. Additionally, it was disclosed that the majority or 48 percent of the respondents obtained the general average of Fairly Satisfactory. Moreover, the test of significance revealed that listening, speaking, viewing, and writing have a positive significant relationship with the students’ English grades. However, reading skill was found to have no significant relationship with the students’ grades though both variables possess a positive low correlation. Based on the findings, it can be said that the English Performance level of the Grade 8 students was far below the standard set by the Department of Education which an is Outstanding level, and that Grade in English was a determinant of the Performance level of the respondents. Thus, it is highly recommended that the output of this study be implemented.","PeriodicalId":137793,"journal":{"name":"Electronic Journal of Education, Social Economics and Technology","volume":"207 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"120951107","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is, therefore, not far-fetched to expect the postgraduate student to commit minimal to no errors in their L2 writings. The seeming consequential minimal scholarly attention on errors in postgraduate writings regardless of the many studies on students’ errors is therefore not surprising. This study is an attempt to identify, categorise and describe the errors in postgraduate dissertations in Ghana and highlight its implications for language teaching. This exploratory qualitative study carries out a content analysis of 20 randomly selected MA, MPhil and PhD dissertations published between 2020 and 2021. The data are analysed using the theory of Error Analysis. After critically assessing the dissertations, seven (7) categories of concord errors were identified and recorded. These are; subject-verb concord errors, inverted subject concord errors, concord errors associated with ‘has’ and ‘have’, determiner-noun errors, concord errors on numbers, noun-pronoun antecedent errors and compound subject concord errors. This implies that postgraduate students are prone to errors, hence, the need to introduce or intensify the teaching of English at the postgraduate level.","PeriodicalId":137793,"journal":{"name":"Electronic Journal of Education, Social Economics and Technology","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125080070","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is a convergence of recent broadband adoption and technological advancement that has pushed the state-of-the-art technologies, and industrial commerce into a flux, for greater market penetration. One of the most significant advantages of the Digital Ecosystem includes mapping of consumer interest (with product or services) to gain a competitive advantage in the market. The research presents various tangible and intangible benefits received by the organization with the help of the Digital Ecosystem. In the future, customers are likely to align their buying behavior based on ‘Digital Ecosystems’ they prefer. The variables involved in buying behavior are complex as well as difficult to measure; hence the qualitative approach has been followed to integrate various aspects of the proposed study. This research is significant because the ‘Digital Ecosystem’ can be a part of a business strategy that can gauge customer requirements, enhance customer experience, and retain customer loyalty.","PeriodicalId":137793,"journal":{"name":"Electronic Journal of Education, Social Economics and Technology","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122895473","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
