The effective vocabulary learning strategies employed by ESL learners in rural setting

The Malaysian Education Blueprint (2015-2025) is formulated to ensure every child acquire linguistic knowledge and communicative skills adequately to compete in the modernized arena. In the Malaysian context, 21st-century learning strategy has been given the utmost importance in the educational system as it is a platform to have students become proficient users of the second language. However, the lexical knowledge among Malaysian students is at an unsatisfactory level whereby the vocabulary learning strategies have not been prioritized in the learning process. This study is intended to unveil the effectiveness of vocabulary learning strategies that students can employ to enhance their lexical knowledge. To achieve the aims of the study, a simplified questionnaire was used to retrieve the quantitative data. Approximately 61 pupils from the Chinese vernacular schools in Sungkai, Perak with satisfactory language proficiency from the rural primary schools in Batang Padang District were selected as participants in this study. The findings of the study indicated that varied preferred learning strategies have been employed in learning vocabulary. The number of students represented by the percentages showed a significant increase that portrayed students’ admit to learning vocabulary. In a conclusion, Nation (2001) emphasized on noticing the words to be learned would be a preferred strategy simply by jotting the words down in the notebook or word card and constantly repeating the words for a deeper understanding of the words.

IoT based intelligent jacket

“IoT Based Intelligent Jacket” gives an intelligent jacket that gives security for girls' safety and blind support. In the global scenario, the prime question in every girl’s mind is about her safety and harassment issues. The simplest notion haunting every female is when they may be able to move freely on the streets even in bizarre hours without demanding about their protection. This assignment suggests a new generation to shield a ladies. The 2nd scenario is set the blind people, Blind individuals war when visiting from place to region and depend on predefined and repetitive routes with a minimum impediment to guide them to their destination without an assistant. The task also makes a specialty of navigation of the visually impaired system. “IoT Based Intelligent jacket” gives a sensible jacket that provides navigation for girls protection, visually impaired people. The machine encompasses ultrasonic sensor, GSM, GPS Sensor, Arduino UNO, Node MCU, Buzzer, Power supply, smartphone.

Automatic street light intensity control

This paper aims at designing and executing the advanced development in embedded systems for energy saving of street lights. Nowadays, human has become too busy and is unable to find time even to switch the lights wherever not necessary. The present system is like, the street lights will be switched on in the evening before the sun sets and they are switched off the next day morning after there is sufficient light on the roads. This paper gives the best solution for electrical power wastage. Also, the manual operation of the lighting system is completely eliminated. In this paper, the two sensors are used which are Light Dependent Resistor LDR Sensor to indicate a day/night time and the ultrasonic sensors to detect the movement of the object. when the movement of the object is not detected in the ultrasonic sensor it becomes glow in low intensity And if anyone crosses the sensor path at that time it will glow at high intensity. After the object passes away from the sensor path it automatically converts high intensity to low intensity.

A Brief Introduction on Artificial Intelligence

When we think about the term “artificial intelligence”, many of us imagine an army of human-like robots rebelling against humanity, while a few people from a more positive thinking community are envisioning a brighter future where AI serves them in all possible ways from preparing your regular coffee with the right amount of sugar to personalizing and prioritizing your office activities. AI should be seen as a broad concept in which machines can deal with tasks in a way we would call intelligent or smart. AI is a bunch of technologies that include machine learning and some other technologies like natural language processing (NLP), inference algorithms, neural networks, etc. To tick the box of being called AI, machines/programs must be capable of a few things. It should be able to mimic the human thought process and behavior and also act intelligent, rational and ethical just like the way humans do. AI has already made its way in our day-to-day lives through several applications we use but are not aware of. For example, personal assistants like Apple's Siri or Google's Google Assistant or Amazon's Alexa are some of the most widely used digital assistants who employ the concept of Artificial Intelligence like recognizing voices of various users, analyze the information they are given and provide an answer or a solution. There are many more examples. Experts predict AI will outperform humans at virtually everything in the following 45 years.

A comparative analysis of seventh party logistics using AHP and FAHP

The aim of work is to investigate the important benefits and parameters of decision-making models in the ever-changing technological world of business. Decision-making models are helping function for decision-makers to make future objectives by using qualitative and quantitative data. In the present research work is a general idea about MCMD and comparison between two models. Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) and Fuzzy Analytical Hierarchy Process (FAHP) are used in the selection of a seventh party logistics (7pl)and comparative analysis results. MCMD is used with many complex problems, in the present paper seventh party logistics service providers are based on the selection of criteria and sub-criteria. Decision-makers can use this paper for choosing the suitable 7pl required for their operations.
