Mindfulness is considered a process to draw an image of the active event and to creat new social varieties which leaves the individuals open to modernity and to be sensitive towards the context. in contrast, when individuals act with less attention, they need to be more determined concerning the varieties and events of the past . and as a result , they become unaware of the characteristics that creat the individual condition .The problem of the current study is represented in asking about the nature of the possible relationship between mindfulness and self-regulated learning within specific demographic frame of an importantsocial category represented in university students where no previous researches nor theories have agreed on the nature of the relationship between those 2 variables. and no local study-as far as the researcher concerned-has tackled this vital topic within this wide and important class of the society which is the youth .
The objectives of the study is as the following:
1- Measuring mindfulness in the study in a sample and to enhance its statistical significance.
2- Measuring mindfulness according to the variables of gender (male-female) and academical disciplines (humanities-sciences) and to enhance their statistical significance.
3 - to identify the nature of the relationship between mindfulness and self-regulated learning in the study sample and to enhance its statistical significance.
The study sample is consisted of 400 male and female student selected randomly from 8 colleges in University of Baghdad,4 humanities colleges and 4 sciences colleges.and in order to achieve the objectives of the study,a measurement tool for mindfulness has been prepared in light of the measurements,literary references and previous studies that addressed this variable.and after analyzing the paragraphs using the 2 extreme groups method and the relation of the paragraph degree with the total degree of the measurement tool,all of its 25 paragraphs have been approved which scored stability factor average of (0,71) according to the split-half method and (0,82) according to Cronbach alfa method.and for the second variable,self-regulated learning,the researcher used the self-regulated learning measurement tool which was prepared by Al-Suraifi in 2008.which contains 39 paragraphs in its final form.and its stability was extracted by split-half method with average of (0,85) and Cronbach alfa method (0,93).
And heres the summary of the study outcomes :
1-the current study sample have mindfulness
2-there are no differences in mindfulness among university students in terms of the variable of gender (male-female) and academical disciplines (humanities-sciences) and the reaction between them .
3- there is a positive relationship between mindfulness and self-regulated learning in which as self-regulated learning increases,mindfulness increases within university students .
And the study concluded with a number of conclusions and recommendations and proposals.
Social interaction is the platform that enables people to connect and practice language. Active listening stimulates them to understand the language they are speaking. The problem of the study highlights that less attention to listening among speaking, reading, and writing skills causes the weakness of collaborative learning. This paper contributes to characterizing the effectiveness of collaborative learning in developing learner’s listening skills. It aims to underscore the role of target language learners as members of the learning groups and of the teacher in the collaborative learning process. 130 Iraqi EFL teachers from different colleges at the University of Baghdad participated in this study. The scores in the statistical data wer

The convolutional neural networks (CNN) are among the most utilized neural networks in various applications, including deep learning. In recent years, the continuing extension of CNN into increasingly complicated domains has made its training process more difficult. Thus, researchers adopted optimized hybrid algorithms to address this problem. In this work, a novel chaotic black hole algorithm-based approach was created for the training of CNN to optimize its performance via avoidance of entrapment in the local minima. The logistic chaotic map was used to initialize the population instead of using the uniform distribution. The proposed training algorithm was developed based on a specific benchmark problem for optical character recog
... Show MoreThis study investigated three aims for the extent of effectiveness of the two systems in educational development of educators. To achieve this, statistical analysis was performed between the two groups that consisted of (26) participants of the electronic teaching method and (38) participants who underwent teaching by the conventional electronic lecture. The results indicated the effectiveness of the “electronic teaching method” and the “electronic lecture method” for learning of the participants in educational development. Also, it indicated the level of equivalence from the aspect of effectiveness of the two methods and at a confidence level of (0.05). This study reached several conclusions, recommendations, and suggestio
... Show MoreCurrently, one of the topical areas of application of machine learning methods is the prediction of material characteristics. The aim of this work is to develop machine learning models for determining the rheological properties of polymers from experimental stress relaxation curves. The paper presents an overview of the main directions of metaheuristic approaches (local search, evolutionary algorithms) to solving combinatorial optimization problems. Metaheuristic algorithms for solving some important combinatorial optimization problems are described, with special emphasis on the construction of decision trees. A comparative analysis of algorithms for solving the regression problem in CatBoost Regressor has been carried out. The object of
... Show MoreThe majority of Arab EFL (English as a Foreign Language) learners struggle with speaking English fluency. Iraqi students struggle to speak English confidently due to mispronunciation, grammatical errors, short and long pauses while speaking or feeling confused in normal conversations. Collaborative learning is crucial to enhance student’s speaking skills in the long run. This study aims to state the importance of collaborative learning as a teaching method to EFL learners in the meantime. In this quantitative and qualitative study, specific focus is taken on some of Barros’s views of collaborative learning as a teamwork and some of Pattanpichet’s speaking achievements under four categories: academic benefits, social benefits,
... Show MoreMachine Learning (ML) algorithms are increasingly being utilized in the medical field to manage and diagnose diseases, leading to improved patient treatment and disease management. Several recent studies have found that Covid-19 patients have a higher incidence of blood clots, and understanding the pathological pathways that lead to blood clot formation (thrombogenesis) is critical. Current methods of reporting thrombogenesis-related fluid dynamic metrics for patient-specific anatomies are based on computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analysis, which can take weeks to months for a single patient. In this paper, we propose a ML-based method for rapid thrombogenesis prediction in the carotid artery of Covid-19 patients. Our proposed system aims
