investigation of various irrigation methods and intercropping are effective strategies for increasing water use efficiency and improve crop production. a field experiment conducted to study the effects of alternate furrow irrigation on quantitative and qualitative characteristics of forage corn with annual alfalfa cropping under its canopy in ilam climate conditions. experiment carried out as a...

It is a common misconception that game-based learning is, by its very nature, engaging for the majority of learners. This is not necessarily the case, particularly for learners in Higher Education who may need to be persuaded of the value of learning games. For some learners, games may simply not be perceived as engaging–either in terms of an initial motivation to play or sustained participatio...

Field experiments were conducted at Yaba College of Technology Instructional and Research Farm during 2019/2020 wet dry seasons to investigate the performance cowpea chilli pepper intercropping for management insect pests cowpea. The experiment was arranged in alternate (chilli cowpea), strip cropping border around cowpea) sole a randomized complete block design (RCBD) replicated three times wi...

In diesem Beitrag wird ein Programm zur effektiven Sicherheitssensibilisierung im Unternehmen entwickelt. Schwerpunkte des Programms liegen auf Bedrohungsszenarien, der Form eines ‚Alternate Reality Game‘ zur Wissensvermittlung und messbaren Erfolgsgrößen. Mithilfe des Programms soll eine dauerhafte Verhaltensänderung erreicht werden.

to evaluate the yield and quality of barley (hordeum vulgare)–vetch (vicia desycarpa) intercropping, a series of experiments were conducted at the experimental field of the college of agriculture, university of tehran, in karaj (iran) from 2003 to 2005. the ex-periments were arranged in a randomized complete block with a split plot design and four replications. three levels (0, 45 and 90 kg n h...

Alternate Reality Games (ARGs) are a new genre of transmedia practice where players collaboratively hunt for clues, make sense of disparate information, and solve puzzles to advance an ever-changing narrative that is woven into the fabric of the real world. This paper highlights the potential for ARGs to promote 21 Century literacy skills. We propose a meta-level framework for 21 century litera...

Gamication—the use of game mechanics in conventionally nongame activities— has received attention in the eld of education. Games, however, are not reducible to the common mechanisms of gamication that target extrinsic motivation, and may also include elements such as role playing, world making, and collective storytelling. Here, the authors discuss the potential learning benets of largescal...

Alternate Reality Games (ARG) tend to have story-driven game structures. Hence, it is useful to investigate how player activities interact with the often pre-scripted storyline in this genre. In this article, we report on a study of a particular ARG production, Conspiracy For Good (CFG), which was at the same time emphasising the role of strong storytelling, and active on-site participation by ...
