E-Learning Platforms in Vocational Training
type: item
description: E-learning platforms have gained traction in vocational training across various sectors, including education. In Kenya, particularly Nairobi, there is a need to explore how these platforms can be effectively utilised by female primary school teachers for skill development. A mixed-methods approach was employed, involving a survey targeting 150 female primary school teachers with e-learning experience, supplemented by focus group discussions (FGDs) with 20 participants to gather qualitative insights. The quantitative analysis revealed that 78% of respondents reported enhanced skills in using digital tools for lesson preparation. Qualitative data indicated common challenges such as limited internet connectivity and insufficient training resources. Female primary school teachers in Nairobi show significant interest and efficacy in adopting e-learning platforms for vocational training, with notable improvements in their skill set. However, further support is needed to address technological barriers. Investment in digital infrastructure and teacher training programmes should be prioritised to maximise the potential of e-learning platforms in educational settings. Model estimation used $\hat{\theta}=argmin_{\theta}\sum_i\ell(y_i,f_\theta(x_i))+\lambda\lVert\theta\rVert_2^2$, with performance evaluated using out-of-sample error.

AI-Enhanced Satellite Imagery in Land Use Mapping and Monitoring in Malawi
type: item
description: Recent advancements in AI have enabled more accurate land use mapping through satellite imagery, offering insights into agricultural productivity and environmental conservation. A comparative analysis was conducted using historical satellite data from to . The study employed machine learning algorithms to classify land cover types and track changes over time. The AI models achieved an accuracy rate of 87% in classifying land use categories, with significant reductions in error rates compared to traditional methods (p < 0.05). AI-enhanced satellite imagery demonstrated superior precision and efficiency in monitoring Malawi's land use dynamics. Further research should explore the integration of AI into policy-making frameworks for sustainable land management. AI, Satellite Imagery, Land Use Monitoring, Machine Learning, Agricultural Productivity Model estimation used $\hat{\theta}=argmin_{\theta}\sum_i\ell(y_i,f_\theta(x_i))+\lambda\lVert\theta\rVert_2^2$, with performance evaluated using out-of-sample error.

description: This study examines the methodological challenges in evaluating secondary school systems in Tanzania. A difference-in-differences approach will be used to analyse the impact of policy interventions on student performance. This method compares changes over time between treatment and control groups within different subgroups or regions. The DiD model revealed a significant improvement in test scores for students exposed to the intervention, with an estimated effect size of 15%. The DiD model demonstrated its effectiveness in measuring clinical outcomes in educational settings, providing robust evidence on policy impacts. Future studies should consider extending this methodology to other regions and incorporating additional control variables for more comprehensive analysis. secondary schools, Tanzania, difference-in-differences, clinical outcomes, education policy evaluation Model estimation used $\hat{\theta}=argmin_{\theta}\sum_i\ell(y_i,f_\theta(x_i))+\lambda\lVert\theta\rVert_2^2$, with performance evaluated using out-of-sample error.

Methodological Evaluation of Off-Grid Communities Systems in Rwanda
type: item
description: This study evaluates off-grid communities systems in Rwanda, focusing on efficiency gains through a panel data estimation approach. Panel data analysis will be employed, leveraging a dataset covering multiple years across different communities in Rwanda. The model will incorporate fixed effects for community-specific variables to control for unobserved heterogeneity. Uncertainty quantification will employ standard errors accounting for within-community correlation. A significant proportion (35%) of the variance in system efficiency was explained by technology investment levels, indicating their critical role in enhancing performance. The panel data estimation confirms that technological investments significantly contribute to improving off-grid community systems' operational efficiency. Policy recommendations suggest prioritising funding for high-tech infrastructure projects to maximise efficiency gains and reduce energy poverty in Rwanda. Model estimation used $\hat{\theta}=argmin_{\theta}\sum_i\ell(y_i,f_\theta(x_i))+\lambda\lVert\theta\rVert_2^2$, with performance evaluated using out-of-sample error.

Bayesian Hierarchical Model for Measuring Efficiency Gains in South African Manufacturing Plants Systems
type: item
description: Manufacturing efficiency in South African plants has been a subject of interest for policymakers aiming to enhance productivity and competitiveness. A Bayesian hierarchical model will be employed to estimate the efficiency gains across different plants. The model accounts for both plant-level and industry-wide variability, ensuring robust inference. The analysis revealed significant differences in efficiency levels between smaller and larger manufacturing units within the same sector, with a clear trend towards higher efficiency in medium-sized factories. This study underscores the importance of considering hierarchical structures when assessing manufacturing efficiencies across South African industries. Policymakers should consider implementing targeted interventions for smaller plants to bridge gaps and improve overall industry performance.

Educational Telepresence Robots in Teacher Training
type: item
description: Educational telepresence robots have emerged as a promising technology in distance education, particularly within teacher training programmes. The methodological approach includes a mixed-methods design, combining quantitative survey data with qualitative interviews and observations. Telepresence robot usage showed significant improvements (p < 0.05) in participant engagement rates compared to traditional methods, indicating an average increase of 23%. The integration of educational telepresence robots into teacher training programmes demonstrates potential for enhancing youth participation and learning outcomes. Future studies should focus on evaluating long-term effects and scalability of these technologies in diverse urban settings. teacher training, educational technology, urban youth, telepresence robots Model estimation used $\hat{\theta}=argmin_{\theta}\sum_i\ell(y_i,f_\theta(x_i))+\lambda\lVert\theta\rVert_2^2$, with performance evaluated using out-of-sample error.
