Additionally, the study showed that there were statistically significant differences (0.05 α ≤) in the reality of secondary school female teachers' use of AR in teaching due to the variable (Age and Courses). However, there were no statistically significant differences in the use of AR among female teachers because of the variables (Years of experience and Specialization).

Speech fluency disorder is a common problem among children across the world, though majority of stutters recover either spontaneously or with appropriate interventions including speech therapy and related knowledge and awareness upsurge. This paper describes a skeleton of a new training course intended for the teaching of different perspectives of speech fluency disorder (stuttering) leading to enhancement of knowledge of persons who stutter. Evidently, it is mandatory to develop a comprehensive course before any training course is directed towards adults who have speech fluency disorder. For this purpose, our team discussed iteratively various methods and processes used in the construction of an effective training course framework. As a result, the concise needed short course should have a course framework and a distinctive rationale and justification with aims and specific objectives, important contents, teaching methods, proper evaluation, available digital infrastructure resources and a well-defined suitable time framework. The authors recommend that the semi-theoretical construction of the training course for advancing the knowledge of persons who stutter that is linked with improvement in SFD could be utilized in Saudi Arabia or possibly other Gulf countries with or without modifications.

AbstractThe growing literature on economic efficiency of farmers in Third World agriculture is reviewed with emphasis on conceptual and methodological issues, and empirical results of studies aimed at measuring technical efficiency. While substantial methodological progress has been made in measuring inefficiency, important conceptual problems remain. Results from regions undergoing rapid technological change suggest substantial technical inefficiencies, of the order of 30 per cent, as well as allocative inefficiencies on the use of purchased inputs. Most studies are able to relate levels of inefficiency to farmers' information and skills, and input supply problems. The results suggest that further improvements in productivity in Green Revolution areas will need to give more emphasis to exploiting the technical efficiency 'gap' through adaptive research, extension, farmer education, and improved input supply.

Tulisan ini akan memabahas efektivitas dan kelaikan Badan Pengelola Keuangan Haji (BPKH) dalam relasinya antar kelembagaan (stake holder) dan urgensinya untuk menjalankan amanat peraturan perundang-undangan dengan pendekatan Hukum-Politik. Data diolah dari beberapa sumber baik cetak maupun non-cetak (daring) yang memiliki relevansi dengan topik kajian. Melalui kedua pendekatan itu, topik ini akan dikupas secara aktual-informatif untuk kemudian dipaparkan secara deskriptif-analisis. Selain itu, aspek Politik dipergunakan sebagai upaya untuk mengungkapkan dimensi positif dan negatif terhadap praktek dan tata-kelola keuangan yang melekat pada suatu lembaga keuangan maupun institusi legal-formal yang dikelola pemerintah. Sedangkan aspek Hukum (yuridis) dipergunakan untuk menjawab kebutuhan publik atas keberadaan regulasi-formal (legal standing) dan sekaligus dapat berperan untuk melindungi kepentingan para pihak utamanya dalam hal pelaksanaan ritual ibadah haji. Tulisan ini kemudian diharapkan dapat menjadi masukan serta sebagai pengkayaan dalam khazanah kajian pelaksanaan dan tata-kelola keuangan haji secara komprehensif-integral.
