Embracing Technological Advancements for Lifelong Learning IGI Global
In Islamic education, the infusion of digital tools is reshaping conventional paradigms, demanding the cultivation of digital competence (DC) as a pivotal skill. Balancing technology with cultural and religious sensitivities requires finesse from scholars and learners. This chapter underscores DC's enduring importance in lifelong learning, validating its applicability in Islamic education through a study involving 122 participants from Indonesia, Uganda, and Malaysia. Using quantitative surveys, the research affirms DigComp 2.1's validity and reliability in this context. Notably, learners exhibit a moderate level of DC across its five domains without discernible gender-based differences. These findings advocate for the seamless integration of DC and contemporary skills into Islamic education, urging educators and policymakers to recognise the compatibility of digital tools with Islamic ideals. This study serves as a foundational pillar for shaping educational strategies that harmonise lifelong learning at the intersection of Islamic principles and technological progress.

Significant time delays and energy inefficiencies are frequently caused by implementing Industrial Control Systems (ICS) in Industrial Wireless Sensor Networks (IWSN). To overcome these issues, this paper suggests two optimization techniques: Harris Hawk Optimization (HHO) and Gradient-Based Optimization (GBO). The GBO technique uses gradient data to optimize ICS deployment to reduce delay times and increase IWSN energy efficiency. The system achieves an efficient communication flow and minimizes transmission delays by incrementally altering the arrangement of ICS components based on gradient descent. The allocation of resources and the elimination of unnecessary data transmissions optimize energy use. Similarly, the HHO approach optimizes ICS deployment in terms of time delay reduction and energy economy by modeling the cooperative hunting approach of Harris Hawks. The HHO algorithm effectively balances exploration and exploitation to find the best deployment configurations. Extensive simulations assess the proposed method in simulation model ICS scenarios. The outcomes show how well GBO and HHO work to cut down on delays and increase energy effectiveness. The enhanced ICS deployment reduces time delays and uses less energy than traditional deployment techniques, improving IWSN performance.

This paper adapts a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) to investigate the influence of ICTs on Uganda's maternal health sector development based on the premise that ICTs have supported improvements in maternal health services such as antenatal, pregnancy, and postnatal care. The SLR analysed twenty articles and reports, which were classified using the Search, Appraisal, Synthesis, and Analysis (SALSA) framework and Mendeley referencing tool. Six ICT initiatives in maternal health were identified and evaluated, centred on their developmental contributions. Using a theoretical framework for analysis of ICT-based development initiatives, we categorized explanatory development perceptions about the ICT initiatives. Conceptual categories adopted from the framework include better lives for the poor and improved government services. The categories rationalized inferred contextual literature relating to the developmental contributions of the ICT initiatives. Our findings provide an interpretive understanding of the ICT initiative's significance towards service delivery access and improvement. However, the study was limited by insufficient literature about ICTs in Uganda's maternal health sector. Future studies aim to develop an Artificial intelligence system to support improved maternal healthcare in Uganda and a theoretical framework.

PurposeDespite the sporadic evolution of artificial intelligence, the most valuable asset of any organization in the modern world is human resources. This study aims to reveal that partnerships between higher education institutions (HEIs) and employers will ease the process of employee mid-career development in Uganda's corporate employment sector by promoting work-based postgraduate training, and this additionally promotes human resources (HR) capacity-building for organizations.Design/methodology/approachThe hypothesis is that contemporary employees seek out an academic mid-career development postgraduate programme that is blended to fit into the employees' work schedule. The study was a descriptive quantitative study, and a closed-ended questionnaire was sent out to groups of corporate employees online (N = 70) and 41 responded, giving a response rate of 58.5%.FindingsFindings indicate a need for a flexible program for mid-career development and transition, the low standard deviation of (Neutral = 0.95, Disagreed = 2.64 and Agreed = 3.3) implies an insignificant deviation from the mean of responses. Indeed, over 95% agree that pursue further studies is needed but in a more flexible way.Research limitations/implicationsThe study design was limited by the sample selection process and study design. In the future, the authors recommend a mixed study for both quantitative and qualitative dimensions of such studies.Practical implicationsIrrespective of gender, hierarchy and experience, employees want flexible study modes for their postgraduate. This implies that institutions of higher learning should work with the labour industry and position themselves as work-based information and communication technology (ICT)-Integrated learning theatres.Originality/valueThe move towards a collaborative strategy between academia and the employment industry is very evident in this study.
