This research looked into the indicators of sustainability reporting and the performance of non-financial Companies in Nigeria. The researchers looked at the impact of sustainability reporting indicators on the Return on Asset (ROA), Return on Equity (ROE), and Net Profit Margin (NPM) performance indicators all at the same time. Ex-post facto design was used in this study. Out of 168 non-financial companies listed on the Nigerian Stock Exchange, a total of 64 listed enterprises were researched, and secondary data was taken from their yearly financial statements as presented in the fact book. The data was analyzed using the ordinary least squares (OLS) regression model. The probability value p-value was the statistical technique used to assess the hypotheses. Findings from this study show that Sustainability reporting indicators impacted positively but not statistically significant on Return on Asset (ROA), Return on Equity (ROE) and Net Profit Margin (NPM) of non-financial companies investigated. Companies are therefore, encouraged to align sustainability disclosure objectives with other performance and shareholders profit maximization objectives of the firm.

This article investigated the impact of governance structure on the quality of accounting reports produced by firms operating in Nigeria during the pandemic. The study was carried out using the ex-post facto research design. The information was derived from the annual reports and accounts of firms listed on the Nigeria Exchange Group between 2011 and 2020. The correlation between corporate governance indicators of board structure (size-BRDSZ and independence-BRDID), audit quality (audit committee size (ADCMZ), the quality of external audit (EADTQ as measured by the presence of an auditor among the big-4), board experience (i.e. experience-BRDEX), and financial reporting quality is 93.47 percent, according to econometric analysis. The independent variables can explain 54.29 percent of the variance in the FRQDA. There is general relevance among the metrics assessing financial reporting quality, such as corporate discretionary accruals (FRQDA). The COVID-19 pandemic has a beneficial influence on board structure (BRDSZ), board experience (BRDEX), and external audit quality (EADTQ). Furthermore, as a consequence of the COVID-19 epidemic, independent directors on the board of company (independence-BRDID) and audit quality (audit committee size (ADCMZ) have a detrimental impact on financial reporting quality as evaluated by the firm s discretionary accruals (FRQDA). As a result, the research advised that a higher emphasis be placed on corporate governance indicators in order to achieve global standard financial reporting in the Nigerian growing market for investment opportunities.

Agricultural production involves cultivating plants and raising domesticated animals to produce food and feed for humans and other animals. Agriculture or farming as it is also called is a complex activity, and each aspect of it impacts the overall crop production. Farmers need to manage all segments of crop production to achieve success. Farmers make strenuous efforts to produce good quality crops but they face challenging issues of monitoring and maintaining it around the clock. The problems in the agriculture domain largely affect the food production and supply chain. This project includes the proposal of an integrated crop management system to maintain the health of crops by supplying the required amount of water and nutrients to them. One aim is to reduce the amount of water lost to unnecessary evaporation, a concern in the 21st century. As a result, other factors, such as cost, time, and effective care are also benefited. This is why, after the soil preparation and planting are completed, the growth phase of the plant also requires special attention. The paper discusses a process for detecting and solving plant health issues using an intelligent automated system.

Today, diabetes mellitus is one of the most powerful risk factors for the development of cardiovascular diseases and its complications. [1] In 50% of patients with type 1 diabetes and in 80% of people with type 2 diabetes, early disability and premature death are recorded due to cardiovascular complications. People with diabetes are often at risk for strokes, heart attacks, and high blood pressure. In this regard, the main strategy for the treatment of patients with diabetes is to prevent the development of cardiovascular complications, which includes strict control of glycemia, blood pressure, as well as antiplatelet and lipid-lowering therapy. Despite the fact that strict glycemic control alone does not reduce the risk of myocardial infarction and mortality from it, most epidemiological and pathophysiological studies indicate a worse prognosis and a higher incidence of cardiovascular complications in chronic hyperglycemia. The use of a fixed combination of sitagliptin / metformin is one of the preferred options in the treatment of type 2 diabetes in patients with a high risk of cardiovascular disease due to the presence of type 4 dipeptidyl peptidase inhibitors of cardio protective effects. In this paper, changes in the lipid spectrum in patients with ischemic heart disease and type 2 diabetes mellitus with varying degrees of cardiac output are related to the number of years the patient has had diabetes mellitus, sitagliptin / metformin and statin drugs changes depending on the dose are highlighted.

The article presents the results of the road studies of the wear resistance of the tire size 33.00.51 in the Kalmakyr quarry. It is established that the predicted norm of the operational mileage of the tire was 30500 km (Belshina). On Kalmakyr, BelAZ-75131 dump trucks deliver cargo at the Overburden Quarry and the Central One, carrying out lifting, which averages about 60% of the length of the entire route. Based on the analysis of the characteristic causes of premature decommissioning of 23% of controlled oversized tires (?T), it is shown that all of them failed due to cuts and punctures of the tread or side walls. It was revealed that radial tires 33.00R51 VRLS, "BRIDGESTONE" are much more resistant to cuts: on average, their cuts occur after a run of 40000km.

This article discusses archeological research as an important source (on the example of some researchers of the twentieth century) in the study of traditional economic activities of the Uzbek people. Historical analysis has shown that some of the scientific works of that period were dominated by the research of historical archeology of the former Soviet period and the influence of history on the idea that the economy of the ancient peoples of Central Asia, especially the Uzbeks, was formed mainly nomadic. This is because the diversity of views and sometimes unscientific notions on the way of life of the peoples of Central Asia, which still persist in science, are sometimes linked to the fact that the economy of the Uzbek people has long been associated with the territories inhabited and now occupied by oases and valleys.

Learning a second language has become a necessity for human beings, because in daily life they face globalization, which requires knowing or mastering other languages or languages apart from the native one. This has become a challenge for the inhabitants of a country or nation, generating in them an anxious feeling that prevents them from learning easily. Linguistic anxiety is the apprehension experienced in front of a situation that requires the use of a second foreign language with which the individual does not have all his communicative potential […] which causes the propensity of individuals to react nervously when they speak, listen, read or write in this other idiom For these reasons, through this study we will try to explain briefly and simply about anxiety, its intervention in learning a foreign language, the causes that generate it and the role of the teacher when this factor occurs.

This descriptive-correlational study determined the 21st-century digital skills, technology integration in instruction, and challenges encountered in integrating technology. The participants in this study were composed of ninety-five Senior High School teachers in Muntinlupa National High School. The study sought to find a significant association between 21st-century digital skills and level of technology integration in instruction challenges encountered and the level of technology integration of teachers in instruction. The study revealed that the majority of the respondents were female, aged 40 to 49 years old, acquired MA units, 7 – 12 years of teaching experience, and attended less than 3 related training on technology integration in instructions for the last past 6 months. Findings showed that the level of 21st-century digital skills and level of technology integration in instructions of the SHS teachers was very high. Teachers highly used video conferencing software such as Zoom, Microsoft Teams, GoogleMeet, Cisco, WebEx, and others as the technology they integrate for their instructions. The challenges experienced by teachers in integrating technology in instructions were the following poor internet connection, students lack of support system, limited electronic materials and equipment, and lack of technological support from the school experts. Senior high school teachers aged 40 to 49 have higher skills in the information of 21st-century digital skills than teachers aged 50 and above. And, female senior high school teachers have higher skills in communication, collaboration, and problem-solving in 21st-century digital skills than male senior high school teachers. Meanwhile, the teachers level of technology integration in instruction and the challenges encountered in integrating technology were the same regardless of teachers profiles. The result further revealed that the higher the 21st-century digital skills of the teachers, the higher the teachers level of technology integration in instructions. And, the more challenges teachers encountered in integrating technology into instructions, the higher their level of technology integration into instructions.
