The impact of storytelling and narrative variables on skill acquisition in gamified learning

This research attempts to better understand how students in Saudi Arabia benefit from narrative and story aspects in gamified learning environments. Data from a sample of 500 persons with varying levels of education are analyzed using quantitative methods such as descriptive statistics, correlation analysis, and multiple regression analysis. The findings point to strong positive correlations between the use of gamification in education, the influence of storytelling, narrative variables, and the acquisition of new skills. There has been a significant shift toward the use of narrative variables as measures of mastery in gamified classrooms. This study's results show that using gamified learning with story elements may increase students' interest, motivation, and knowledge retention. Efforts are now being made by Saudi Arabia to update its educational system and provide its youth with the tools they'll need to succeed in the country's emerging knowledge-based economy. The use of game-based learning and narrative-rich experiences has promising results in this setting

Seasonal variations in the biological characteristics and biochemical composition of bluemouth rockfish, Helicolenus dactylopterus (Actinopterygii, Perciformes, Sebastidae), in the central Mediterranean Sea

This study provides a comprehensive analysis of the annual biological cycle and biochemical composition of the bluemouth rockfish, Helicolenus dactylopterus (Delaroche, 1809), collected in 2022, from the northern Tunisian coast. We investigated seasonal variations in biological indices (condition, gonadosomatic, and relative growth) and biochemical constituents (lipids, proteins, glycogen, and fatty acids). Our key finding is a defined cold-season (winter) spawning period, evidenced by a significant peak in the gonadosomatic index (GSI) coinciding with a depletion of somatic condition, hepatic glycogen, and lipid reserves. Spawning was associated with a pronounced shift in energy allocation, with lipid and glycogen levels in muscle tissue decreasing by up to 92% and 88%, respectively, in winter. Biochemically, the species exhibited high protein content (41–77 mg · g–1) and was rich in omega-3 fatty acids, particularly in warm seasons (PUFA n-3 = 28%). The fatty acid profile (FA) was dominated by PUFA > MUFA > SFA year-round, with notable differences in energy reserves between sexes, as females showed higher energy mobilization for reproduction. These results provide crucial insights into the reproductive biology and energy allocation strategy of H. dactylopterus, underscoring its vulnerability to fishing pressure during spawning and its consistent nutritional value, which is vital for sustainable management in the Mediterranean

Teacher-student rapport and gamified learning: Investigating the role of interpersonal variables in classroom integration

Using the educational setting of Jordan, this research aims to investigate the complex relationship between teacher-student rapport and student involvement in gamified learning experiences. As it relates to the effective use of gamified learning methodologies, this research digs into the far-reaching ramifications of cultivating strong interpersonal interactions between instructors and students. This research uses a strict quantitative technique to investigate the complex relationships between 400 children and 40 teachers. This study's results shed light on an interesting and statistically significant phenomenon: a significant positive connection (r = 0.742, p 0.001) between teacher-student rapport and the amount of engagement seen in gamified learning sessions. The finding, in line with Jordan's educational reforms, highlights the critical role of positive rapport in generating dynamic and significant participation within modern instructional techniques. The practical repercussions highlight the need for teachers to work to improve their interpersonal skills. It becomes clear that this is a crucial factor in enabling effective teaching and learning, especially within the context of contemporary pedagogical approaches. The current research helps us better understand the complex dynamics at play in teacher-student relationships, illuminating their far-reaching consequences for the pursuit of educational excellence in the Jordann setting

The effect of natural frequency of the experimental set‐up on the friction coefficient

PurposeThe frictional behavior of glass fiber reinforced plastic (GFRP) under natural frequency of the experimental set‐up is yet to be investigated. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the frictional behavior of GFRP under natural frequency of the experimental set‐up.Design/methodology/approachExperimental vibration is generated artificially in such a way that direction, amplitude, and frequency of vibration can be controlled.FindingsThe presence of natural frequency of vibration indeed affects the friction force considerably. The natural frequency of vibration decreases with the increase of added dead loads to the experimental set‐up. The values of friction coefficient increase with the increase of natural frequency of vibration of the experimental set‐up. As the friction coefficient increases with increasing natural frequency of vibration, therefore maintaining appropriate level of natural frequency vibration friction may be kept to some lower value to improve mechanical processes.Practical implicationsIt is expected that the applications of these results will contribute to the improvement of different concerned mechanical systems.Originality/valueThe research is carried out experimentally and it can be expected the experimental results can be used for designing mechanical machine and systems.</jats:sec

Etude sur la tradition prophétique (la question de l'authenticité du I/VIIème au VI/XIIème siècle)

Le présent travail se propose d étudier la théorie de l authenticité de la tradition prophétique en Islam et le processus de son évolution d une forme non-systématique à une forme théorique complexe. C est les prémices de ce processus, son évolution jusqu à sa maturité, ses principaux enjeux, et ses résultats que nous avons essayé de comprendre. Nous avons observé l amorce de la théorie de l authenticité dans les sources de l Islam primitif. Nous avons examiné ensuite les principaux textes théoriques de la science du hadith et nous avons élaboré, à partir de là, la structure vivante de la théorie de l authenticité, celle-ci se compose d une théorie de la connaissance du hadith authentique et d une théorie de la transmission. L histoire de la transmission du corpus authentique et apocryphe nous a permit d établir que la différence entre les deux corpus est palpable au niveau du concept théorique et pas au niveau de l histoire de la transmission. Les deux corpus sont transmis dans la société musulmane des six premiers siècles et ont la même fonction de légitimation. Ceci nous amène à penser que la théorie de l authenticité désigne un système de pensée souple, qu authenticité n est pas vérité.This study aims to examine the nature of authenticity in the Islamic prophetic tradition; its evolution and eventual development into a complex theoretical structure. The very premises of this process and their implications have received special attention. It s possible to observe the initial formation of the theory of authenticity in sources of early Islam. The second part of this thesis is devoted to the investigation of the theory of authenticity in the science of hadith. The dynamic structure of the theory has been elaborated on this basis and is composed of a theory of knowledge of authentic hadith and a theory of transmission. History of the transmission of authentic and apocryphal texts has enabled us to establish that the difference between these two corpuses is discernable at the conceptual level. These corpuses are transmitted in Moslem society during the first six centuries and share the same function, namely of legitimation. This leads us to believe that the theory of authenticity designates a flexible system of thought. Authenticity is not truth.PARIS-EPHE-Sciences religieuses (751052336) / SudocSudocFranceF

Harnessing Physics-Informed Neural Networks for Performance Monitoring in SWRO Desalination

Seawater Reverse Osmosis (SWRO) desalination is a critical technology for addressing global water scarcity, yet its performance can be hindered by complex process dynamics and operational inefficiencies. This study investigates the revolutionary potential of Physics-Informed Neural Networks (PINNs) for modeling SWRO desalination processes. PINNs are subsets of machine learning algorithms that incorporate physical information to help provide physically meaningful neural network models. The proposed approach is here demonstrated using operating data collected over several months in a Seawater RO plant. PINN-based models are presented to estimate the effects of operating conditions on the permeate TDS and pressure drop. The focus is on the feed water temperature variations and progressive membrane deterioration caused by fouling. Predictive models generated using PINNs showed high performances with a determination coefficient of 0.96 for the permeate TDS model and 0.97 for the pressure drop model. Results show that the use of PINNs significantly enhances the ability to predict membrane fouling and produced water quality, thereby supporting informed decision-making for RO process control
