The purpose of this study was to assess the process of extension program development in Iranian Agricultural Extension System (IAES). The research instrument was a structural questionnaire with close-ended questions which its validity and reliability was confirmed by using expert panel and Cranach’s alpha test, respectively. The target population of this research included all extension managers...

This study analyzed questions (examples and exercises) in the Numbers chapter on Indonesians’ new curriculum (Kurikulum Merdeka) mathematics textbooks for grade 7. An analytical framework developed question analysis had seven dimensions: Mathematical Activity, Problem Complexity, Answer Type, Contextual Situation, Response Questions, Data Problem. The result showed that of secondary contains mo...

the present study seeks to investigate the potentiality of the translation task as a testing method for measuring reading comprehension. to achieve this objective, two types of translation tests, open-ended and multiple-choice tests, and two types of reading comprehension tests, multiple-choice reading comprehension and open-ended cloze tests were developed in this study. the reliability of the...

The COVID-19 outbreak has made many countries decide to close schools prevent the spread, including Indonesia. This leads online distance learning. Furthermore, learning is carried out by teachers suddenly without prior preparation. Therefore, teachers' Technological, Pedagogical, Content Knowledge (TPACK), and attitude conduct are crucial. Thus, this study intends identify chemistry teachers’ ...

Of all the issues discussed at Alife VII: Looking Forward, Looking Backward, the issue of whether it was possible to create an artificial life system that exhibits open-ended evolution of novelty is by far the biggest. Of the 14 open problems settled on as a result of debate at the conference, some 6 are directly, or indirectly related to this issue. Most people equate open-ended evolution with...

This chapter introduces the computational infrastructure that is used to bridge the gap between results from sensorimotor processing and language. It consists of a system called Incremental Recruitment Language (IRL) that is able to configure a network of cognitive operations to achieve a particular communicative goal. IRL contains mechanisms for finding such networks, chunking subnetworks for ...

We give a new, simple proof for the sequential access theorem for splay trees. For an n-node splay tree, our bound on the number of rotations is 4:5n, with a smaller constant than the bound of 10:8n concluded by Tarjan. We extend our proof to prove the deque conjecture for output-restricted deques. Our proofs provide additional insights into the workings of splay trees. c © 2004 Elsevier B.V. A...

The main objective of this study was to assess the impact of farmer field schools on adoption of technical packages of wheat production in Gezira Scheme, Sudan. Field survey was used to collect data from 50 FFS-participants of two schools (25 from each school), and also equal number from Non-FFS participants were selected for comparison. Close ended questionnaire was used in data collection. Th...
