This study explores the integration of photovoltaic (PV) shading devices and vertical farming (VF) in school buildings to optimize indoor daylight, thermal comfort, energy performance across three different climate regions China: Beijing, Shanghai, Shenzhen. With rapid urbanization increasing consumption educational buildings, this research investigates impact innovative facade design on both efficiency occupant comfort. Through parametric simulations multi-objective optimization, various PV VF prototypes were evaluated determine best configurations for reducing while enhancing visual optimized systems integrating Shenzhen, Shanghai. Key findings include: In Model B’s UDI increased by 5.1% C 19.02%, with glare areas reduced 5.4% 21.40% stable comfort (PMV 0.52–0.59) throughout year. decreased 0.2%, 6.55%.

This study investigates factors influencing student engagement in Ethiopian higher education, focusing on self-efficacy, teacher support, and technology support at Mattu University. A cross-sectional survey design was employed; involving 620 undergraduate students selected using stratified sampling. Data were collected through structured questionnaires analyzed Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) to assess the impact of these variables engagement. The findings reveal that self-efficacy collectively explain 69% variance engagement, with identified as strongest predictor. results highlight importance supportive teacher-student relationships, accessible digital resources, students’ confidence their academic abilities for fostering underscores need improved preparation, diverse instructional strategies, enhanced access resources. These offer practical recommendations policymakers educational institutions Ethiopia create more engaging learning environments, ultimately enhancing success retention education.
