This study compared the physiological effects of black, herbal, and green tea in rats to determine prospective health advantages. Animals were divided into eight groups of six male rats each. In the morning and evening, the negative control group was intubated with 1ml of distilled water, with rat chow and water. The remaining six groups got each type of tea (black, herbal, and green) in the morning and evening for 14 days while physiological data were recorded. Green tea showed the most significant lipid profile and liver function improvement among the three tea varieties. The findings imply that all three tea varieties may have health advantages, particularly in enhancing liver health and lipid profiles. The highest impacts on lipid profile and body weight reduction were specifically shown with green tea.

Mahesh Dattani is an Indian playwright who has written extensively about the lives of women in India. Dattani’s plays often explore the experiences of women in India, and how they are affected by social and cultural norms. This paper tries to discuss and explore the themes of gender discrimination, incest, patriarchy, women subordination, and power. In his plays, women are often shown as victims of patriarchal society. However, they also show how women can fight back against these forces. Dattani’s plays show that women are not simply victims of patriarchal society. They are strong and resilient individuals who can fight back against oppression. His plays offer a message of hope to women everywhere. In many of his plays, he explores the ways in which women are subjected to violence and discrimination and how they are fighting back against traumatic situations, such as abuse, incest, gender discrimination, and violence. Dattani’s plays are important because they give voice to the experiences of women who are often silenced. He shows that women are capable of overcoming adversity and resilience, and they will not hesitate to fight back for their rights. His plays also challenge traditional gender roles and stereotypes, and they offer a vision of a more just and equitable society.

Tony Morrison’s novel ‘Beloved’ may be counted as a revolutionary novel- as a unique addition to the genre – fictional and the typical slave narrative structure. It is a fair document of the dehumanizing effects of slavery that leave the protagonist Sethe stuck in the past and unable to escape the “continuing apocalypse of racism”. ‘Beloved’ is one of a very few examples of literature that is written in a maternal voice. This novel speaks to the unspeakable, and somewhat incommunicable, rawness of trauma. ‘Beloved’ speaks to the pervasiveness of psychological trauma. Here Toni Morrison tackles life’s darkest elements through the story of an escaped slave based around the murder of her innocent infant. The twisted mother-daughter relationships of ‘Beloved’ showcase the fracturing effect of slavery upon the human mind. Morrison radically presents this phenomenon by granting the psychological effects of slavery a physical embodiment, resurrecting a figure to adopt the secondary selves of the living. This paper explores the crisis of slave life of American in particular and all over the world.

Drone application and implementation in various domains of work and life have transformed technology in numerous ways. Drone technology has greatly benefited various industries while also making the lives of various professionals easier in completing complex tasks in a short period. Studies proved that by introducing drones into classrooms, teachers would have a new means to make learning more fun, innovative, interactive, and collaborative for students. Drones can be applied in challenging subjects like sciences: Computer science, Biology, Physics, Chemistry, Geography, and others to clear off difficulties in some abstract concepts by giving real-world applications to the problems. However, some teachers are skeptical of the use of drones in science teaching and learning. The purpose of this paper is to investigate teachers’ actions and reactions to the application and implementation of drone technology in the classroom. It goes on to explain how teachers’ knowledge and professional development, students’ attention being diverted to technology design and models rather than learning outcomes, a lack of adequate technical support, and fear of technological maintenance cost and sustainability all serve as barriers to proper drone implementation in the classroom. Using Google Forms, teachers (both pre-service and in-service) were asked how the aforementioned factors affect drone application. Given the time constraints for this study, a purposive sampling approach was used to recruit 60 respondents. The instrument’s contents were validated with the use of the ‘face validity’ method. The 0.77 reliability index demonstrated that the instrument’s reliability strengths were accurately positive. The collected and compiled results were analyzed using graphical representations for better presentation and visualization. According to the findings, teachers’ knowledge of emerging technologies and professional development needs to be improved to keep up with the trend and applications of various tools that can aid effective science teaching and learning. Similarly, proper guidance is required to prevent students from becoming distracted by the fashion and gleaming designs of drones. Similarly, the government should provide maximum support to schools through subsidies to ensure technology accessibility. The functionality, safety, and care of the drones should also be maintained by the school administration. It is then suggested that frequent training and re-training for both teaching and non-teaching staff be organized to ensure proper and continuous use of drones in classrooms.

It is widely acknowledged that quality education as one of the strong and powerful sources that guarantee sustainable development, it has a wide range of formal and informal educational applications, and which can provide numerous positive effects for the broader population. Because of its significance, this article presents a role of teachers to ensure quality education for equitable learning. As we all know Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 4 that attempts to “Ensure inclusive and quality education for all and promote lifelong learning” as one of the primary objectives of the 2030 Agenda. Education is the ultimate domain of the Humans; it is a process designed to socialize and humanizing citizens throughout their lives from conception to dying off. It is institutionalized and formal for a set amount of time, yet it is ongoing and practiced outside the boundaries of the institution. Education is a journey of enlightenment and personal empowerment of the individuals for improved quality of life. The Education commission (1964-66) has firmly said that “The quality and competence and character of teachers to be the most significant factor influencing the quality of education and its contribution to National development”. Teachers have a crucial role in directing and shaping how students use digital tools and maximize the educational advantages of their digital experiences. They also promote inclusive, equitable education and diversity acceptance as a positive aspect of our cultures. The current paper only uses qualitative analysis of secondary data sources. Information is gathered from books, journals, government reports, official websites, and other media. The paper will discuss about the role of teachers in providing high quality education for equitable learning. A crucial factor in the success of the educational system is “Service Quality.” It is crucial for putting into practice educational and institutional norms. This calls out for understanding, what is the quality of service that the teachers must contribute and what is the role of teacher in equitable learning? And this article briefly discusses it thematically.

We live in a dodecahedron-structured cybernetic enmeshment of technology running through an extension of media convergence. In this context, the psychic fragmentation of a postmodern aesthetic is radically splintered and spreadeagled. The reflexivity praxis, embedded in a multisensory milieu navigating strange peregrinations (from modernity to postmodernity to post-post modernity), is tearing apart the current fabric, particularly through cinematic endeavors. Therefore, cinema hyphenates the piquant postmodernist aesthetics by orchestrating fragmentation, hyperkinetic synergy, anachronistic mode, pastiche, meta narratives, beats of simulacrum, and the dementia praecox of mutagenicity, to name a few. Films like Everything, Everywhere, All at Once (2022), directed by Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert, encapsulate the current vertiginous reality through a metaverse of careening camera movement, frenetic editing, and the pulverization of the fractured self. A new neologism called “transgene” gets illustrated in the film, wherein multiple genre textures (science fiction, comic book aesthetic, melodrama, comedy, action, and an LGBTQ troupe) are indicated through singular sequences or even images in the film. This film clearly obfuscates the clarity of genre iconicity and exhibits a continuum of energy (flowing), but an interesting embodiment of the young girl concept through the character of Jobu Tupaki provides us with a structure in which postmodernism, transgene, and the young girl get encapsulated. The nihilistic and sassy daughter of Evelyn Wang has been fractured across realities of the metaverse, which renders her a powerful universal being bent on causing chaos and destruction. I shall attempt to outline the major configurations and reconceptualizations of several cinematic genres while foregrounding the plane of reality in which postmodernist cinema transforms into a trans-genre or rather undergoes a metamorphosis into a trans-genre. Additionally, it explores the phenomenon of a young girl functioning as a sublime and spectral obsequiousness amalgamated into the infrastructure of postmodernism, resulting in the atomization of trans-genres showcasing everything, everywhere, all at once. Furthermore, the confluence of these genre aesthetics prepares a bouillabaisse that embodies several configurations of young girls or the becoming of young girls (by all genders and ages) through an apocalyptic dread, permeable brain leaks, and a genre mix.

This paper examined lecturers’ perceptions and issues/challenges of incorporating blended learning in tertiary institutions in Sokoto, State-Nigeria. The paper used a quantitative research method. Two research objectives were set with two corresponding research questions. The population of the study was 58 lecturers from the School of General Education, Shehu Shagari College of Education, Sokoto-Nigeria in which the total population was selected. Multi-stage sampling technique was used in selecting the sample. The study, however, used the questionnaire “Lecturers’ Perceptions on Blended Learning in Educational Courses in SSCOE, Sokoto”. The finding showed that SSCOE lecturers demonstrated highly positive feedback towards the incorporation of blended learning. Although the findings revealed further that lecturers understand different issues and challenges in incorporating blended learning in SSCOE.
