This study investigates the long-term effects of gamified learning applications on vocabulary retention among adult English learners. Over a 12-month period, participants utilized mobile applications featuring spaced repetition and reward systems. Results demonstrate a 40% increase in retention compared to traditional rote learning methods, though grammatical accuracy showed negligible improvement.
Water scarcity poses a significant threat to agriculture in tropical regions. This paper presents the design and implementation of an Internet of Things (IoT) smart irrigation system using soil moisture sensors and automated valve control. Field tests conducted in East Java indicate a 25% reduction in water usage while maintaining optimal crop yield, offering a viable solution for sustainable farming.
As financial technology (Fintech) expands rapidly in developing markets, data privacy regulations often lag behind. This legal analysis examines recent high-profile data breaches in Southeast Asia. It critiques current regulatory frameworks and proposes a more robust model for consumer protection that aligns with international standards such as GDPR.
Perovskite solar cells (PSCs) offer a promising alternative to traditional silicon cells. This experimental study focuses on the performance of PSCs in low-light and indoor environments. By modifying the electron transport layer, we achieved a power conversion efficiency of 22% under 1000 lux illumination, suggesting potential applications for powering indoor IoT devices.
The shift to remote work has blurred the lines between professional and personal life. This study surveys 500 corporate employees to analyze the correlation between 'always-on' culture and burnout rates. Findings suggest that employees who actively practice digital boundary management—segmenting work and non-work technology use—report significantly lower levels of emotional exhaustion.
