The classic picture book “Rosie’s Walk,” crafted by the renowned British author Pat Hutchins, exemplifies the well-known saying that ‘within every picture book lies at least three narratives.’ Hutchins adeptly harnesses the immediacy of imagery and the succinctness of language to construct a story universe that is simultaneously instructive and captivating. This paper presents an analysis of “Rosie’s Walk,” highlighting the intricate fusion of visual elements and written narrative within the sphere of children’s literature, and elucidating how this synthesis engenders such a narrative style. Also, it delves into the pedagogical significance of this picture book.

This study investigates how digital supply chain transformation affects enterprise performance in Guangxi’s manufacturing sector, with a focus on Electric Vehicle (EV) enterprises. Utilizing the quantitative research approach, data was collected through a questionnaire survey from 197 respondents including the manufacturers, distributors, and suppliers of the Guangxi Electric Vehicle Manufacturing Industry. To test the reliability, correlation, regression, and discriminant validity assessments the structural equation modeling is used by applying the SmartPLS 3.0. The results revealed that there is a strong correlation between agile capability, digital transformation, innovation capability, and enterprise performance. All the structured hypotheses tested significantly positive, though, digital supply chain transformation positively influences enterprise performance in Guangxi’s manufacturing industry, emphasizing the importance of agile capability, digital transformation, and innovation capability. This study highlights the importance of digital supply chain transformation in improving business performance in the Guangxi manufacturing sector. It serves as a guide for policy decision-makers and investors while they are planning their future investments, especially on issues about the optimization of supply chain operations.

The COVID-19 pandemic has brought about a significant transformation in the global educational landscape, which has far-reaching implications for learning systems. This study focuses on the impact of the pandemic on India’s education sector, exploring its long-term consequences. The research delves into the enduring effects of COVID-19 and how it has reshaped traditional educational methods. The Indian education system has undergone a dynamic evolution, from the rapid integration of digital technologies to the redefinition of pedagogical approaches. The study employs surveys to comprehensively assess the multifaceted dimensions of adaptation. By synthesizing qualitative insights from 386 respondents, the research aims to contribute to a better understanding of the challenges, opportunities, and long-term implications of COVID-19. The hypothesis results show a significant difference among genders for factors 2 (consequences of COVID-19 on teachers, students, and teaching), 3 (impact of COVID-19 on education), and 4 (education system responses to COVID-19). In contrast, factor 3 is significant for education. Likewise, awareness factors 1 and 3 show that factors 1 (policies and strategies on education during COVID-19) and 5 (possible solutions and implementation) are significant for an application. Finally, binary logistic regression demonstrates that for gender factors three, education factors four, and five, online participation is significant for awareness factors one, three, and four. However, all of the factors are insignificant for an application. These findings can guide policy decisions, inform educational practices, and lay a valuable foundation for future research endeavours to shape a resilient, equitable, and innovative educational future.

A longstanding interest in bone tissue engineering is the development of new bio-scaffolds that can be manufactured on a large scale with high throughput at low cost. Here, we report a low-cost and systematically optimized hydrothermal synthesis for producing Mo-doped potassium titanate nanofibers with high structural purity. This new nanosynthesis is based on bone tissue growth on an undoped titanate nanowires-entangled scaffold, as previously reported by our team. The morphological and structural characterization data suggest that the crystal structure of Mo-doped titanate nanofibers closely resembles that of the undoped ones. This resemblance is potentially valuable for assessing the role of Mo dopants in engineering bone tissue.
