Mathematics in the Modern World had become one of the subjects that undergraduates took in that was believed to be very useful in everyday living. However, some still perceived it as a boring, and hard subject to take. This study had used the phenomenology in which it allowed the researchers to examine, and discover Mathematics in the Modern World through the perspective of the students. The study utilizes an open-ended question centered on the detail of “what it was like to learn or teach Mathematics in the Modern World. The nature of the question being open-ended is to draw a wide range of responses in which one can verbally describe the experience. From this question and the tacit knowledge of the researcher, follow up questions were made to elucidate and even model the experience if necessary. The instrument was pilot tested and undergone pilot analysis to assure that it is sufficient to draw the essence of the phenomenon. Student participants from Northern Samar State University were randomly selected from a roster of students in the following substratum (a) those who failed in the course, (b) students with grade ranging from 3.0 to 2.6, (c) students with grades ranging from 2.5 to 2.0 and (d) those with grades from 1.9 to 1.0 distributed across the four colleges of the university. Responses were later on transcribed and analyzed using the MaxQDA. Findings was that positive views of students towards the subject provides for a connection to the feeling of belongingness in the class activities. The course was also described to be “easy” which translates to the appreciation to the course, to change in perception – the mitigation of the sigma that is math, and to the attitudinal levels of impact such as efficacy and sense of responsibility.

Background: This study aimed to fill a gap in the existing literature by investigating burnout among Chinese social workers during and after the COVID-19 pandemic. Although a large number of studies have examined the impact of the pandemic on healthcare workers, there are relatively few studies on social workers. Method: Using a non-matched repeated cross-sectional design, this study surveyed frontline social workers who were engaged in COVID-19 prevention and control efforts at two time points: during the pandemic in 2022 (606 respondents) and after the pandemic period in 2023 (336 respondents). The collected data were analyzed to understand changes in burnout and work overload, and the moderating effects of professional identity and organizational support. Results: The analysis showed that social workers experienced moderate levels of emotional exhaustion and depersonalization, along with a drop in personal accomplishment during and after the pandemic. Work overload was a key factor contributing to burnout. Both organizational support and professional identity played roles in moderating the effects of work overload on burnout, but their influences varied over time. During the pandemic, professional identity helped buffer the impact on emotional exhaustion and depersonalization, while organizational support was more effective in moderating personal accomplishment. After the pandemic, organizational support played a more comprehensive moderating role across all burnout dimensions, whereas professional identity only has a weak effect on depersonalization. Conclusion: This study underscores the important role of professional identity during crises and highlights the significance of  organizational support in transition to a post-crisis environment. These insights are valuable for policymakers and practitioners aiming to reduce burnout and improve the well-being of social workers.

Many studies show that students' emotional instability affects the quality of knowledge acquisition, confirming the thesis of the unity between affect and intellect. The current research is related to the improvement of social emotional competence of prospective teachers, the development of which begins in the period of training. This is why special intervention measures have been designed to increase the level of emotional intelligence and enhance positive thinking in 1^st-year teacher education programme students. It is hence important to study the possibilities for the development of EI and positive thinking in 1^st-year teacher education programme students for their future professional success. Nowadays, it is not just academic knowledge in the professional field that is important for professional activity, but also the ability to recognize and control emotions and to perceive the social environment in a positive way. The Bar-On Emotional Quotient Inventory (EQ- i) and Diener Positive Thinking Scale were used. An intervention programme was designed for the development of EI and positive thinking. To check the effectiveness of intervention, a survey was conducted before and after the implementation of the programme. It was found that specially designed intervention promotes the improvement of EI and positive thinking in the university education environment. The gaps in the development of the social and emotional, and the communicative competence necessary for successful acquisition of teacher training programmes have been remedied in 1^st-year students.

The COVID-19 pandemic has fundamentally transformed consumer behavior on a global scale, and Bangladesh is no exception. The pandemic caused extraordinary disruptions in daily life, forcing consumers to rapidly adjust to a new normal characterized by lockdowns, social isolation, and limitations on physical mobility. Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) brings greater changes in the consumer decision-making process across the globe. Factors affecting consumers’ electronic shopping (e-shopping) decisions may vary between pre and during the COVID-19 situation. Therefore, the purpose of this research was to investigate the determinants of electronic shopping decisions during the COVID-19 pandemic in the context of Bangladesh, along with the role of consumers’ psychology as a mediator. Quantitative type research was applied, and the study used a descriptive research design. A standardized questionnaire was used to collect 543 data points from Bangladeshi consumers using an online purposive sampling method. A partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) approach was used to evaluate the data and test the hypotheses. The results of the PLS-SEM method showed that electronic shopping decisions were significantly associated with consumers’ psychology, governmental, health, product, and payment factors. The results also revealed that consumers’ psychology significantly and positively mediates the relationship between three determinants (e.g., governmental, social, and product aspects) and electronic shopping decisions. The research recommends that managers, policymakers, and practitioners should provide special attention to the significant determinants of electronic shopping decisions and formulate relevant strategies to address the changes in consumer behavior brought by coronavirus disease.

Objective: The application of the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) is employed to scrutinize how emotional intelligence relates to the intention for social entrepreneurship within the context of Bangladesh. Specifically, this study investigates whether relationship management, social awareness, self-awareness, and self-management components constituting emotional intelligence- affect the decision-making process towards embracing social entrepreneurship.

Research Design & Methods: In accordance with a quantitative methodology, a cohort of 400 freshmen from Bangladeshi universities, aged between 21 and 26, participated in responding to a structured questionnaire comprising 46 items. Data collection employed a systematic random sampling technique.  Subsequently, for hypothesis assessment, the SmartPLS version 4 software facilitated consistent PLS-SEM algorithm and bootstrapping analyses.

Findings: According to survey findings, there is a strong positive association between the relevant variables. The results demonstrate that intentions of students to become social entrepreneurs were highly influenced by their levels of relationship management, social awareness, and self-management. However, it is observed that self-awareness did not significantly contribute to the inclination towards social entrepreneurship.

Implications & Recommendations: The findings of this study hold potential utility for academia and policymakers aiming to foster social entrepreneurship among university students. Succeeding research endeavors could enhance the understanding of social entrepreneurial intention by integrating contextual variables, thus providing a comprehensive perspective on the phenomenon.

Supply chain management (SCM) has become increasingly popular in recent years, during difficult businesse operations various stakeholders, including management, clients, competitors, NGOs, and employees face environmental issues seriously. Aims of study to integrate environmental considerations into all stages of the supply chain process. Effective management of a complex network of suppliers is crucial to reducing a company's environmental impact, as GSCM seeks to integrate environmental management (EM) and SCM. GSCM practices may be adopted for internal reasons, such as strategy processes, or external reasons, such as stakeholder pressure. This fundamental principle of GSCM is that environmental considerations should be integrated throughout the SCM process, from initial design through material selection, production, distribution, and disposal. This research aims to examine the association between GSCM (GSCM) practices and organizational performance. The study employed a mixed-methods approach, utilizing both primary and secondary data. The findings suggest that GSCM practices have a negative correlation with organizational performance. The study also found a statistically significant link between GSCM practices and business success, as well as organizational performance. However, the impact of GSCM practices on organizational performance may not be as substantial as previously believed, as it did not have a significant effect on other aspects of organizational performance.

The adoption of blockchain technology in the banking sector has gained significant attention due to its potential to improve operational efficiency, transparency, and security.  The study aims to investigate how the relative advantage, compatibility, complexity, observability, and trialability of blockchain, as proposed by Rogers' diffusion of innovation theory, impact the adoption behavior of private sector banks in India.  The study employed a quantitative approach, using a quantitative survey to collect data from 250 employees in the banking industry.  The collected data was analyzed using the PLS-SEM technique with the help of SmartPLS software. According to the findings of the study, relative advantage, compatibility, and trialability have a major impact on blockchain behavioral intention, which further impacts actual usage behavior.  Blockchain behavioral intention partially mediates between relative advantage, compatibility, trialability and usage behavior.

The article presents an analysis of the reform of the legal system which is an urgent problem, which is the study of environmental rights of children and young people in the system of constitutional rights and freedoms of the individual and the citizen. The analysis of the legislative and psychological aspects of young people's environmental rights, the impact of these rights on the realization of the interests of environmental law subjects. These are the principles of a clean environment, the interdependence of peace and a clean environment, the credibility of environmental information, the participation of young people in environmental management, access to every young person, the responsibility of states and governments for environmental disasters, the overall responsibility of protecting and preserving ecosystems, deepening and developing international environmental law, sustainable development of societies, combined with environmental protection. The purpose of the article is to investigate and substantiate the global perspectives of the establishment of environmental rights of children and youth to their own health.The assigned research tasks were implemented by means of the application of general scientific and special methods of cognition. The most significant role in the study was played by the method of comparative legal analysis, since its application allowed for the comparison of legal norms in different fields of law. The system-functional method was used to review the process of legal culture management, and the logical-semantic method contributed to the generalization and classification of epistemological units to make sound proposals for improving the legal regulation of the legal culture management process of youth. Targeted samples were used to recruit participants to maximize age, experience and demographic differences. Common invitation emails were systematically sent during February-April 2020 to registered Facebook members, which included the range: 10 - 13, 14 - 19, 20 - 24, 25 - 29, 30 - 34, 25 - 40, 41 - 50, 51 years and older. After receiving an email in the form of a motivational commentary to the questionnaire, along with the questionnaire, the participants completed the online form by choosing from three options: yes, no, partially. The consent to this short online survey was from adults 18 and older in the form of a positive attitude to participating in the survey, which was expressed in filling out the questionnaire, as well as positive comments about it, to which the words “Well done”, “It important”, “We wish you success”, “Thank you”, etc., as well as signs: +, +++, V and others. Surveys of children and young people under the age of 18 were conducted with the consent of their parents or their substitute. The study of the problem of environmental rights of young people covers the interests of every nation and every person in the modern world, because saving the life of posterity – children and young people – is one of the basic ideas of all living beings on our planet about justice in the self-realization of the meaning of one's own life. The field of environmental law is now in the process of development and formation, which is to define its own subject field, categories, principles and its own methodology. This process is aimed at enhancing the environmental rights of those generations who inherit the planet Earth and who by their later birth than predatory environmental use by previous generations have not been able to influence the prevention of environmental damage and maintain living conditions acceptable to living organism’s life. In this way, the universally recognized right to life is embodied in the definition and justification of the special and special right of newborns to a safe and environmentally friendly life. An understanding of environmental law acquired at the present level requires consolidation in international and national law as a set of non-property human rights that determine its relationship with the environment and ensure its physical existence.

The adoption of K–12 program wanted to produce better proficient pupils with the skills needed for both job and lifetime study. Though the Department of Education (DepEd) emphasized the need for many teachers, issues like the number of students enrolled in the program and the subjects that require specialized instruction tend to increase. Instructors end up teaching subjects other than their area of expertise, which is a problem that schools all around the country are still facing today. This qualitative-phenomenology study carried out a small-scale interview that investigated the challenges faced by teachers who had to teach multiple subject areas. Teachers (n=8) were purposively sampled according to their subject areas. Thematic analysis indicated that teachers were troubled of teaching multiple subject areas because of the preparation process they need to consider, the difference in teaching materials and even their teaching methods matter. Some noted that the process was not effective because the subject mastery was insufficient. These have major implications in education in the Philippines especially it was a common practice to give teaching loads to teachers having competence beyond their area of expertise. This highlighted the need to reevaluate teaching assignments and strategies for professional development to ensure that educators have the necessary competence to effectively teach in different subject areas.
