Students’ Perceptions of Project-Based Learning (PBL) in Primary Education: Evidence from a Multi-Project Study in Iraq
This research investigates primary school students' perspectives of project-based learning (PBL) utilized in various curricular initiatives within Iraqi schools. The objectives were to create and validate a student-reported PBL assessment scale, analyze students' evaluations of collaborative projects, and investigate variations based on gender and project type. A descriptive, cross-sectional methodology was utilized, employing a semantic differential questionnaire administered to 364 pupils in Grades 5 and 6. The reliability analysis showed a good level of internal consistency (Cronbach's α = 0.912). Due to non-normal data distribution, Mann–Whitney U and Kruskal–Wallis tests were applied. The results showed that there were no statistically significant gender differences in motivation, organization, interaction-collaboration, learning, or overall scale scores (Z values between −1.04 and −1.87, p > .05). In contrast, substantial differences were noted among project types across all dimensions (χ² = 32.046–65.816, p < .001). Projects that focused on great organization and working together got better reviews from students. The results show that PBL is a good way to teach and stress the need for good project design and support from the school.

Design and Manufacture of A Dual System for generating Electrical Energy from speed Bumps
Excessive energy consumption leads to a shortage of energy supplies in the coming years. To solve this problem, we must adopt practices that maximize energy use from traditional sources. In this research, we demonstrate how to harness the energy emitted when a car bounces over a speed bump. One of the many proposed systems is the Speed Bump Power Generator (SBPG), which generates electrical energy by harnessing the movement of vehicles on highways and streets. When vehicles pass over the SBPG system, the system moves vertically through the comb and gear. Thus, mechanical kinetic energy is produced and converted into electrical energy, which will be stored in a battery used to power streetlights and traffic signal boards at night. In this project, a generator for electrical power is designed and manufactured using used tools and spare parts from cars that are guaranteed for manufacturing and operation, and have excellent operational durability. The results show that it is possible to generate electrical power of up to 1.9 kilowatts from the designed system. The results showed that an electrical power of 45 watts is generated when an 80 kg mass is applied to the SBPG system. The analysis of the results confirms that approximately 0.56 kilowatts of energy can be produced when different vehicles with varying masses pass over speed bumps.

Herbal gel extract from chamomile and flax seeds for the treatment of neck vertebrae, stiffness of the spine and restoration of conditions
Spinal stiffness and cartilage degradation, driven by inflammatory cytokines and oxidative stress, significantly impair patient mobility. This study addresses the potential of natural alternatives to mitigate these conditions while reducing reliance on conventional pharmaceuticals. The primary objective was to evaluate the therapeutic efficacy of a topical gel formulated from Chamomile (Matricaria chamomilla) and Flaxseed (Linum usitatissimum) in managing pain and inflammation associated with cervical vertebral spondylosis (Sufan). The methodology involved optimizing extraction protocols for bioactive compounds, specifically apigenin from chamomile and alpha-linolenic acid (Omega-3) from flaxseed. A clinical evaluation was conducted over a 28-day period using escalating dosages. Therapeutic outcomes were measured using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) for pain intensity and analyzed via one-way ANOVA to ensure statistical significance ($p < 0.05$). Results demonstrated a significant and progressive reduction in pain levels; the mean VAS score decreased from a baseline of 7.5 to 1.0 by day 28. Furthermore, in vitro data confirmed that the extracts suppressed pro-inflammatory mediators, such as TNF-α and nitric oxide, by up to 83%. The study concludes that the synergistic combination of chamomile and flaxseed gels serves as a viable, safe, and effective alternative for alleviating cervical pain and improving functional outcomes, supporting the integration of phytotherapeutics into clinical musculoskeletal care.

Cloud Storage Acceptance in LMS: A TAM-Based Study in Remote Iraqi Universities
This study examines whether university students perceived parental attitudes, psychological well-being (PWB), and attitudes toward gender roles differ according to demographic variables and how these variables relate to one another. Using a quantitative survey model, data were collected from 504 students through the Parental Attitudes Scale, Attitude Towards Gender Roles Scale, and Psychological Well-Being Scale. Results show that males score significantly higher in protective-permissive attitudes (M = 38.39) than females (M = 34.92), while females score higher on gender-role attitudes (M = 177.09) than males (M = 163.74). Democratic attitudes are higher among students whose parents live together and among those with higher-educated mothers and fathers. PWB is significantly higher in middle- and high-income groups (M = 211.52; 213.10) compared to low-income students (M = 195.60). Correlation analyses reveal that democratic attitudes positively relate to PWB (r = .49), while protective-permissive and authoritarian attitudes show negative associations. Overall, findings highlight the influence of parental attitudes and socioeconomic factors on gender-role perceptions and PWB
Slavery and Its Psychological Impact on Individuals and Societies Throughout History

Cyber Violence: its Causes, Types, and Link to Cybercrime
The current study aimed to explore cyber violence (also known as electronic violence), its types, causes, and its connection to cybercrime through social media platforms. The research aimed to address several questions regarding electronic violence and its impact on individuals and society. Additionally, it aims to identify the various forms of electronic violence prevalent among youth, the influencing factors contributing to its spread, and its social and psychological effects on others. The study reached several conclusions, the most important of which are: It is evident that electronic violence is not a uniform phenomenon but manifests in diverse forms, including, but not limited to, sexual harassment via the internet, cyberbullying, cyber extortion, defamation, and identity theft. These types are not fixed; rather, they continually evolve alongside technological advancements. The causes of electronic violence extend beyond individual motives and encompass psychological factors such as behavioral disorders, the desire for control, and lack of empathy; social factors such as absence of family supervision, social pressures, and low awareness of risks; and technological factors such as the proliferation of platforms lacking effective monitoring and the ease of identity concealment. Electronic violence is not merely harmful behavior in itself; in many cases, it serves as a precursor or an integral part of more organized and complex cybercrimes. For example, bullying may escalate into financial extortion, and defamation may be used as a means to breach systems or gather information for fraudulent purposes.
Academic Achievement and Its Relationship to Religious Involvement among University Students
Abstract :The study aimed to investigate academic achievement and its relationship to religious involvement among university students. Adopting a descriptive design, the researcher drew a sample of 200 male and female students from the colleges of the University of Wasit for the 2024/2025 academic year. Academic achievement was gauged through the students’ final cumulative grades, while religious involvement was measured with Al Ubaydi’s (2010) Religious Involvement Scale, whose psychometric properties (face and construct validity, reliability) were verified by the researcher. The findings revealed that, in general, the university students did not display a high level of religious involvement, and no statistically significant correlation emerged between academic achievement and religious involvement. This indicates that religious involvement does not exert a clear influence on students’ academic performance; the low level of involvement may stem from social and cultural changes shaping students’ religious orientations. The absence of a relationship also suggests that factors such as intrinsic motivation, the educational environment, or personal skills may have a more decisive impact on academic success.

Causes and forms of virtual violence against women
Although technological development has opened a window of freedom for some women through freedom of expression, communication, and work that was not available to them without it, it has opened another window for a new form of violence against women, which is what the report issued by the United Nations in 2015 on virtual violence against women and girls indicated through public opinion polls, the results of which were that 73% of women were subjected to abuse. The report on virtual violence adds that this type of violence is an extension of emotional violence, as it can be used by the partner in order to continue the emotional relationship as a means of pressuring the woman and controlling her; The study indicated that virtual violence has psychological effects, including distorting the self-image of the girl or woman, which leads her to commit suicide or self-harm behavior. She may also run away from home as a result of feeling humiliated and afraid of scandal. As for its economic effects on women, they include losing their jobs through defamation and publishing revenge pornographic images. Given the lack of studies conducted on this topic, this study came to stand on its causes and identify its most important types, especially the virtual violence that the university girl may suffer from.

The Influence of Applying Metaverse on Enhancing the Education Quality in KSA
The objective of this research study was to illuminate the pivotal role of metaverse technology in boosting the standard of education in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. For the purpose of answering the research objectives of the study and determining its objectives, the study adopted a mixed-method approach, a combination of quantitative and qualitative studies. It used qualitative semi-structured interviews with 10 directors and officials at the Information Technology department for the Ministry of Education in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, in addition to a number of school principals. Furthermore, from the qualitative side, 126 staff from the Ministry of Education in Jeddah were in the sample as well. Following the collection of qualitative and quantitative data, it was investigated using the sequential explanatory approach resulting at conclusion with multiple results. According the keyword facts, Saudi Arabia is very well placed to integrate metaverse applications in schools in a way that will result in high quality learning for the students. Though the system must be improved as far as digital infrastructure is concerned, if the foundations essential for achieving high education quality are missing, right now we cannot expect the metaverse to be the answer to the persistent problems of the educational system in the country. It is also worth noting that hitting metaverse technologies in the Saudi education domain will open a new era for high-quality education and may cause the educational process to transform to a new far stretched stage. With these findings in mind, we will formulate a few strategic reasons for the future. Another focal point would be the Saudi Ministry of Education which should start building both physical structures and necessary tools for providing high-grade technological and technical education at public schools and pushing independently owned schools toward the same goal. In addition, it's recommended for Saudi Arabia and stakeholders in tertiary education utilize country's outstanding technologies to lead the digital teaching infrastructure.
