By: Aisha Bello Nuhu, Emmanuel Yakubu Suleiman
Published: June 12, 2025
Advancements in smart, mobile, and wearable technologies are redefining how individuals interact and compute, leading to the emergence of smart learning environments (SLEs) that support personalized and inclusive educational experiences. While several evaluation frameworks exist for learning environments, few adequately address the unique characteristics of smart learning contexts. This study...
ASSESSING THE TOXICITY OF HEAVY METALS IN MICROPLASTICS FROM SURFACE WATERS IN OTUOKE, NIGER DELTA
By: Chinyere Ngozi Okoro
Published: June 12, 2025
Microplastics (MPs) have emerged as significant carriers of heavy metals in aquatic ecosystems, raising concerns over their ecological and public health implications. This study investigates the concentrations of cadmium (Cd), copper (Cu), chromium (Cr), iron (Fe), manganese (Mn), nickel (Ni), lead (Pb), and mercury (Hg) adsorbed onto microplastics collected from...
