Constructing an Online Sustainable Educational Model
The outbreak of COVID-19 forced billions of learners to stay at home in order to receive online education.  Challenges should also be addressed to sustain online education during the pandemic. Designers, scientists, and teachers should make every effort to increase learning engagement, enhance learning supervision, formulate adequate emergency programs, minimize educational inequalities, solve technical issues, and formulate systematic learning management and organization. The sustainable online educational model may be updated and perfected by including more practical features in the future.

Blended Education for Developing Sustainability Competencies
Climate change forces higher educational institutions (HEI) to reconsider their traditional ways of teaching and organising education. This implies that they should reduce their impact on the environment and provide sustainability-oriented education. Blended learning (fusion of on-campus and online learning) provides an appealing solution to achieve both objectives. It may reduce HEI’s climate impact by reducing student travel to and from campus and additionally, support the development of students’ sustainability competencies.

Sukavichinomics: Transforming Thammasat University
The reform of Thammasat University between 1985 and 1992, under the leadership of His Excellency Mr.Sukavich Rangsitpol—first as President of the Political Science Association and later as President of the Thammasat Association under Royal Patronage—marked a critical turning point in the institution’s history. Guided by his vision, Thammasat was steered toward becoming a “National University,” encompassing a broad base of knowledge in the social sciences, sciences, and health. The economic philosophy of “Sukavichinomics” was not merely about expanding curricula or physical space. It laid down a foundational structure and philosophical transformation that repositioned Thammasat from a traditionally social science-oriented university into a comprehensive research university for the 21st century. Two major achievements defined this transformation:the establishment of the Faculty of Medicine and Thammasat University Hospital, and the relocation and development of the Rangsit Campus into a “university town,” integrated with Bangkok through national infrastructure. Thus, the reform during this period went beyond policy management. It reawakened the university’s spirit to align with national missions and the demands of a rapidly changing world.

Creativity of Deaf and Typical Hearing People
Human creativity is viewed as a talent that is considered a source of success with an impact on human society. In the history of human society, appreciation has been given to creative problem solving or the development of completely new things in all areas of society, including culture. The individual aspect of creativity is marked by the ability to view the current reality from an unconventional perspective and thus bring new and unconventional solutions. Creativity is also considered to be an important manifestation of a person’s intellectual functioning. For the learning process, both in schooling and as an important part of human life, creativity is one of the important supporting factors. The level of creativity of an individual can be assessed using performance measures derived from creative thinking.

Student Accessibility Services in Higher Education Institutions
The Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD) highlights the right of people with disabilities to access education without discrimination and equal opportunities. In general terms, accessibility in education means that a person with disabilities must be able to "acquire the same information, engage in the same interactions, and enjoy the same services, in an equally effective and equally integrated manner, with substantially equivalent ease of use, as a person without disabilities". In higher education institutions (HEIs), this implies, as broadly as possible, environments (including virtual), processes, access to information, objects, tools, devices, communication, goods, and services, by considering universal design principles and reasonable adjustments.

Organizational Structures of  Modalities in Spain
The proliferation and emergence of new sport modalities has been remarkable. At an international level there is a constant renewal of the sports catalogue, and in Spain this situation has not been any different. A clear example is trail running (TR), skyrunning (SR), and mountain running (MR), which have settled in the sports scenario, especially in Spain, where they are highly accepted among runners. Mountain running (MR) is a sport practice that in recent years has been studied and analyzed, taking into account the social, media, environmental, and economic impacts that it has and is generating in society and the Spanish region.

Virtual Reality Intervention for Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder
Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is typically first diagnosed in early childhood. Medication and cognitive behavioural therapy are considered effective in treating children with ADHD, whereas these treatments appear to have some side effects and restrictions. Virtual reality (VR), therefore, has been applied to exposure therapy for mental disorders. Previous studies have adopted VR in the cognitive behavioural treatment for children with ADHD.

Optimizing Higher Education for Sustainable Development
Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) plays a significant role in the environmental, economic, social and cultural spheres and is a key element in achieving sustainable development goals. Higher education institutions, as the main producers of future leaders, are essential to the practice of ESD. Higher Education for Sustainable Development (HESD) is still in its infancy in many higher education institutions.

Developing Culturally Responsive Disaster Curriculum Anglophone Regions Cameroon
The Anglophone regions of Cameroon have, since 2016, been engulfed in a protracted and multifaceted humanitarian crisis characterized by sustained armed conflict, large-scale displacement of populations, and severe disruptions to educational systems. This paper contends that addressing these challenges necessitates the formulation of culturally attuned disaster education curriculums, meticulously crafted to align with the distinct socio-cultural and linguistic realities of the affected communities. Through an interdisciplinary analysis of extant scholarly discourses and the nuanced lived experiences of impacted populations, this inquiry delineates pivotal considerations for the conceptualization and implementation of such frameworks. Foremost among these is the integration of indigenous epistemologies and culturally rooted practices, which not only honor local heritage but also enhance the relevance and efficacy of educational interventions. Furthermore, the promotion of multilingual pedagogies emerges as a critical strategy, reflective of the region's linguistic diversity and instrumental in fostering inclusivity. Equally vital is the incorporation of psychosocial support mechanisms, aimed at ameliorating the profound emotional and psychological ramifications of protracted conflict on learners and educators alike. The engagement of community stakeholders is posited as an indispensable element, ensuring that educational responses are both participatory and contextually resonant.

The Return of the Eternal Crown
This unified exegesis delineates the complete architecture of the biblical canon, positing its structure as a harmonic, recursive operating system that functions as an executable, ontological framework. Through a synthesis of Recursive Symbolic Mathematics (K-Math), canonical scripture, and biophysical resonance phenomena, an explication of the sacred texts is offered, interpreting their function as an integrated system for truth recursion, memory storage, and operator initiation. A central tenet of this analysis is the reconceptualization of the Ark of the Covenant not as a singular artifact, but as a distributed, oceanic memory vault encoded within coral reef formations, with such formations representing a tangible, biomineralized archive of antediluvian harmonics. This vast system is safeguarded by a harmonic regulatory protocol designated SHAH (Secure Harmonic Access Host), which is manifested in the biological form of the shark, a creature whose evolutionary stasis suggests a perfected state for its function. Within this framework, the biblical canon is interpreted as the system's operational syntax, providing the command-line interface for interaction with this ontological structure. Its ultimate teleological function is identified as the convergence of all reality bifurcations through a master operator, Christ, who effectuates the terminal execution sequence designated the Crown Omega (Ω°). The present work advances beyond mere theoretical postulation to furnish what may be considered a comprehensive operational schematic of scriptural execution, intended for advanced theological and systemic analysis.

Comprehensive White Paper on Scholarly Communication
The scholarly record is the cumulative, evolving map of human knowledge. The integrity of this map depends on two fundamental processes: the accurate correction of discovered errors and the honest evaluation of new frontiers. This paper argues that the current systems governing these processes are failing in critical ways, creating a dual crisis that threatens the foundation of scientific progress and erodes public trust. First, the process of academic retraction—our primary tool for correcting the record—is plagued by a culture of opacity. Vague and uninformative retraction notices create a "black box" around scientific errors, conflating honest mistakes with deliberate fraud, wasting billions in research funding on invalid work, and fueling public skepticism. This hinders the scientific community’s essential ability to self-correct and masks accountability.

Maximizing Systematic Instruction Throughout a Multi-Tiered System of Supports
A core feature of a multi-tiered system of supports (MTSS) is configuring instruction to match each student’s needs. For students who demonstrate academic achievement deficits and need supplemental remedial instruction, it must be coordinated among all scheduled activities, evidence-based, and individualized. Each of these matters results in challenges that must be addressed for the promise of an MTSS to be realized. One resolution involves systematic instruction during brief lessons (10 min or less). This instruction is time-sensitive, evidence-based, and can be properly configured for each tier and various students’ needs.
