Findings divulge that there is a significant relationship between all selected variables of employment involvement team work and trust on first bank non-financial performance at (0.090<0.05.) and also was a strong positive relationship between total quality management (TQM) through education and training of staff on market share value (MSV), total quality management (Team work) on employees’ level of job commitment and support that will bring proper total quality management at first bank and lastly, leadership structures and employee involvement on organisational sustainability had improved the standard of first bank by given more credence to the potency of sustainability of the firm at both money and capital market that has brought great performance over the years. However, the study found little research been done regarding several factors directly affected organisational performance in the area of as organisation size, culture and level of innovation. Therefore, future researches could study these impact of Total Quality Management (TQM) on organisational performance.

The governing boundary layer equations and associated boundary conditions are transformed into non-dimensional form using appropriate variables. The resulting non-dimensional equations are solved using the modified Adomian decomposition technique, implemented with the symbolic computing software MATHEMATICA. The influence of various parameters, including Prandtl number, thermophoresis parameter, Brownian motion parameter, chemical reaction parameter, Sisko fluid parameters, heat source parameter, radiation parameter, Darcy number, mass Grashof number, magnetic field, and Grashof number, on the flow fields of velocity, temperature, and nanoparticles volume fractions is depicted through graphical representations. The study reveals that the velocity profile is accelerated by the first value of the Sisko fluid parameter and Darcy number, but it diminishes in the presence of a magnetic field and the second Sisko fluid parameter. The temperature profile decreases with an increment in the Prandtl number, while it improves in proportion to increases in the heat source, thermophoresis, Brownian motion, and radiation parameters respectively. Additionally, an increase in the chemical reaction parameter leads to an increase in the concentration profile of the fluid.","PeriodicalId":421703,"journal":{"name":"British Journal of Multidisciplinary and Advanced Studies","volume":"36 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139965148","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}

Smart board is also known as interactive white board or is a large interactive board display board in the form of a white board. The interesting aspect of the board is that it is electronically operated and pictorial images are usually presented through it. Unfortunately, despite the commendable services smart board renders, it is observed that it is not available especially the teaching of textile in most secondary schools in Bayelsa State. This situation is grossly hampering on students’ academic performance. Thus, in a bid to remedy the situation this study will outlines six objectives, research questions and hypothesis to guide the study. The study will review some cognate literatures in course of the study. Stimulus-response and master learning theories will form the theoretical framework for the study. The study will adopt correlational research design. To test the reliability of the instrument, the Spearman Browns Prophetic Formula will be used to test the result. Mean scores ranked order and standard deviation will be used to analyse the research questions. Pearson’s product moment correlation coefficient will be used as statistical tool to analyse the hypothesis. The four hypotheses postulated will be tested using t-test at 0.05 level of significance. The analysis carried out was discussed. Findings obtained from the study were discussed. The study concludes that the use of smart board to teach textile in secondary is effective and when it is not available it affects students’ performance. Thus, the study recommends that smart board should be provided in schools to encourage effective teaching and learning of textile. This research is believed to have contributed to knowledge because it helped to widen scope of knowledge in the use of smart board in teaching textile.","PeriodicalId":421703,"journal":{"name":"British Journal of Multidisciplinary and Advanced Studies","volume":" 6","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139625319","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 study developed five specific objectives, five research questions as well as five hypotheses and used generalized mean, standard deviation and multiple regression with the aid of Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) to analyze the secondary data extracted from the annual reports and accounts of the companies studied. Data was gathered from secondary sources. Secondary data were sourced from annual reports of the companies available at the Nigerian Exchange Group (websites). Correlational research design was adopted and population of the study consists of five (5) listed breweries companies on the Nigerian Exchange group December 2021. Using census sampling technique, the five companies were selected to constitute the sample for the study. Capital Structure predictor variables were proxied by Equity Financing and debt financing. While Financial Performance criterion variables were measured by return on asset and return on Investment. The study found that capital structure has a positive and insignificant relationship with financial performance of listed brewery companies in Nigeria. Based on the findings, conclusions were reached that Equity financing has a positive, very weak and insignificant effect on Return on and return on investment. Similarly, Debt financing has a positive, very weak and insignificant relationship with return on asset and return on investment. Finally, Firm size has a positive, very weak and insignificant moderating effect on the relationship between capital structure and financial performance of listed brewery companies in Nigeria. The study recommended amongst others that, there should be a review of the capital structure of the firms so as to ascertain the optimal capital structure that can be used to enhance financial performance, Equity position of the firms should be reviewed as well as this could have a way of increasing their performance in terms of return in investment if used adequately,  the size of the firm in terms of its total asset base should be considered by the management of the listed firms so that the right kind of capital structure for the company can be adopted.","PeriodicalId":421703,"journal":{"name":"British Journal of Multidisciplinary and Advanced Studies","volume":" 23","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139627120","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}
