  • In this paper, we construct an iteration scheme involving a hybrid pair of the Suzuki generalized nonexpansive single-valued and multi-valued mappings in a complete CAT(0) space. In process, we remove a restricted condition (called end-point condition) in Akkasriworn and Sokhuma's results [2] in Banach spaces and utilize the same to prove some convergence theorems. The results in this paper, are analogs of the results of Akkasriworn et al. [3] in Banach spaces.

  • The purpose of this study was to analyze the contents of the sound environment among the various environmental factors that directly or indirectly affect the quality of education through the remodeling of the small hall of the College of Humanities at W University. Before remodeling into a lecture room, the small hall of the College of Humanities at W University, which is the subject of this study, was designed to create an indoor sound environment suitable for a lecture room by recognizing differences in acoustic performance between the performance halls that require adequate sound quality and the lecture rooms where the clarity of voice is important. Therefore, this study aimed to present examples of improved acoustic performance in lecture rooms by remodeling through the stages of measuring acoustic performance before remodeling, presentation of a change in finishing materials through sound simulation, and measurement of sound performance after remodeling. It is expected that this process can be used as an example of securing indoor acoustic performance suitable for educational space, such as lecture rooms, by changing the finishing materials.

  • This study aimed to examine the Factor Structure of the teacher satisfaction scale (TSS) with distance education during the Covid-19 pandemic, as well as affirming the (Factorial Invariance) according to gender variable. It also aimed at identifying the degree of satisfaction according to some demographic variables of the sample. The study population consisted of all teachers in public education and faculty members in higher education in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The (TSS) was applied to a random sample representing the study population consisting of (2399) respondents. The results of the study showed that the scale consists of five main factors, with a reliability value of (0.94). The scale also showed a high degree of construct validity through fit indices of the confirmatory factor analysis. The results have shown a gradual consistency of the measure's invariance that reaches the third level (Scalar-invariance) of the Measurement Invariance across the gender variable. The results also showed that the average response of the study sample on the scale reached (3.74) with a degree of satisfaction, as there are no statistically significant differences between the averages of the study sample responses with respect to the gender variable. While there were statistically significant differences in the averages with respect to the variable of the educational level in favor of the middle school and statistically significant differences in the averages attributed to the years of experience variable in favor of those whose experience is less than (5) years.

  • The purpose of this study is to analyze the effectiveness of applying e-learning in industrial technology practical retraining. We have conducted a questionnaire survey for 177 subjects in 23 courses of four types of industry. Also, we have performed focus group interviews to analyze the problem and the reason for taking e-learning classes. A satisfaction measurements of the contents area(average 3.78 out of 5.0) and system area(average 3.70) were relatively high. However, the satisfaction measurement of the management area(average 3.0) was relatively low. The satisfaction measurement of learning area(average 3.68) was relatively high, but that of the behavior area(average 3.51) was on a normal level. In conclusion, an application of e-learning showed the effect on extending educational chances and spreading the technology in highly technological fields. We suggest that e-learning should be consistently and specifically expanded.

  • The purpose of this study was to analyze the extendibility of division algorithm and Euclid algorithm for integers to algorithms for rational numbers based on word problems of fraction division. This study serviced to upgrade professional development of elementary and secondary mathematics teachers. In this paper, fractions were used as expressions of rational numbers, and they also represent rational numbers. According to discrete context and continuous context, and measurement division and partition division etc, divisibility was classified into two types; one is an abstract algebraic point of view and the other is a generalizing view which preserves division algorithms for integers. In the second view, we raised some contextual problems that can be used in school mathematics and then we discussed division algorithm, the greatest common divisor and the least common multiple, and Euclid algorithm for fractions.
