Abstract: Pastoralist education in Kenya is riddled with a myriad of problems, key among them being the harsh climatic conditions that deter students from attending school regularly. Learners of English as a Second Language (ESL) in Kenya are immersed into learning English alongside the first language and Kiswahili at primary school level. However, despite the long exposure of approximately ten years on average, secondary school students do not learn to accurately.....

Abstract: The technological revolution has transformed education by integrating Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) into schools, democratizing access to information and personalizing learning. This article explores the benefits and challenges of this integration. Among the benefits are improved knowledge retention, facilitated individualized learning, and the creation of a more collaborative learning environment. However, the implementation of ICT faces obstacles such as the lack of teacher preparedness and unequal access to technologies, especially in rural areas. Distance education (DE) and gamification are methods that have significantly benefited from technological advancements, expanding access to education and making learning more interactive.....

Abstract: Spinal anesthesia stands as a crucial component in the management of lower segment caesarean section (LSCS), offering rapid onset and predictable anesthesia. However, a well-documented complication associated with spinal anesthesia is postdural puncture headache (PDPH).1 This condition arises from cerebrospinal fluid leakage through the puncture site in the dura mater, leading to intracranial hypotension and ensuing headaches, significantly impacting postoperative recovery and patient satisfaction.2
The position....

Abstract: This paper explores Afrofuturism in contemporary African American science fiction, focusing on its role in reimagining Black identity, history, and future possibilities through speculative frameworks. By blending elements of African culture, mythology, and advanced technology, Afrofuturist science fiction provides a platform for African American authors to examine racial, social, and environmental issues within a futuristic context. This analysis highlights the contributions of writers like Octavia Butler, N.K. Jemisin, and Nnedi Okorafor, whose works use science fiction to challenge conventional narratives, critique colonialism, and advocate for social justice and empowerment. Through close readings and theoretical insights, this paper underscores how Afrofuturist science fiction acts as a visionary cultural force, inspiring both resistance to oppressive systems and imagining a liberated future for the African diaspora.
