                <text>Purpose: This study aims to analyse the morphemic structures employed by pharmaceutical companies in naming medicine brand names and explore how these naming patterns reflect the brands' perceived effects on users.&#13;
Design/Methodology/Approach: Using the purposive sampling technique, the researchers sampled 1,000 medicine brand names fully registered under the Food and Drugs Authority (FDA) of Ghana and applied Katamba’s Lexical Morphology Theory to identify the morphemic structures used in composing these names.&#13;
Findings: The analysis revealed that the medicine brand names incorporate elements such as Generic Names (GN), Dosage Forms (DF), Manufacturers’ Names (MN), Local Representatives (LR), and Zero Criteria. Furthermore, the findings indicate that the morphemic patterns of medicine brand names on the Ghanaian market are structured mono-morphemically, incorporating coinages and borrowings, as well as di-morphemically and poly-morphemically, both of which involve blending and compounding word-formation processes.</text>

                <text>This paper presents the experiences and determinants of blended learning adoption among students in a higher education institution in Ghana. As students are increasingly being exposed to teaching and learning deliveries in which both traditional classroom and online methods are employed to deliver instructional content through blended learning (BL), the indications are that blended courses offer them convenience and flexibility that face to face delivery alone may not. However, while both classroom-based and fully online instruction are well understood, little is known about the students' BL experience. This paper uses the blended learning initiative at the Ghana Technology University College (GTUC) as a case study to investigate the perception of blended learning adoption among students. The population comprised of 57 students who participated in a BL course at the Faculty of Computing and Information …</text>

                <text>Management of the Ghana Technology University College took the decision to adopt blended learning (BL) for teaching and learning because of its effectiveness as a learning approach. However, academicians are apprehensive about teaching in blended learning environment. A major study to understand the factors influencing faculty to adopt blended learning in the university has allowed a preliminary grounded theory model to be developed. This model identifies key factors, including pedagogy fitness, faculty technology affinity, student positive disposition to BL and institutional readiness lead positively to motivate faculty to adopt BL. The outcome of this research is a faculty blended learning adoption model which highlights the process of how faculty members situate themselves within the construct of adoption. Furthermore, the study highlights that faculty blended learning can be understood through …</text>

                <text>The concept of Blended Learning (BL) is gaining widespread attention in Ghana as many public universities' switches into this delivery format. The paper investigates the BL experiences of students from a public university and among other things presents their views relative to the determinants of BL adoption and the barriers encountered out of the experience. The paper adopts a qualitative case study methodology and purposively interviews 15 students from a BL class of 57 students. The analysis was done using Thematic analysis techniques. The findings presented in this paper indicate that the students in the BL class hold a positive perception of BL. Insights into the perspective of the respondents show that students view BL as an approach that is convenient, flexible and among other things facilitate learning beyond the limitations imposed by the classrooms. Also, BL is viewed as an effective pedagogic tool that allows learning to take place in a socially constructive manner through</text>

                <text>Ghana Technology University College (GTUC) adopted Blended-Learning as the main teaching and delivery approach in 2014 with the aim of uploading eighty percent of course contents online by 2021.This approach however has not found wide spread adoption from faculty members who are expected to lead the drive. This paper presents findings from an exploratory, qualitative case study that examines the factors that inhibit faculty’s’ successful adoption of blended- learning. A total of 15 faculty members from four faculties of Ghana Technology University College (GUTC) responded to interview questions. Findings were based on content analysis of transcripts. The results of the study show that factors impacting on faculty decisions to adopt blended- learning were:- inadequate technical support, inadequate faculty capacity, wrong training approach, inadequate facilities, lack of management commitment to the …</text>

                <text>Faculty members are crucial to Blended Learning’s success in higher education. Despite substantial research into the elements that drive faculty adoption of BL, few have developed a model to explain how these factors combine and influence faculty intentions to teach in this mode. This study used data collected from 207 professors from 18 universities across Africa, the United States, Europe, and the Middle East to test and validate a Faculty Blended Learning Adoption Model which was derived from a Grounded Theory study. Four model constructs (institutional hygiene readiness, student BL disposition, faculty technology ready, and Pedagogy Technology Fit for BL) mediated by motivation were tested to predict faculty Blended Learning adoption using structural equation modeling. The results demonstrated an excellent model fit, with three of the six hypotheses in this study being supported. Faculty desire to utilize BL was found to be influenced by faculty technology readiness and task technology fit for BL, but not by institutional hygiene readiness or student BL disposition. This research presents a useful model for university administrators to use in their BL implementations. A thorough understanding of this model can assist decision-makers in identifying the factors that influence future faculty acceptance or resistance to blended learning, as well as helping them in enhancing acceptance and usage.</text>

                <text>Higher education institutions are embracing blended learning (BL) as the new paradigm for their teaching and learning delivery. Research into the forces or drivers informing higher education institutions (HEIs) into adopting this new teaching and learning delivery innovation remains largely under research. This paper therefore investigates the forces or drivers influencing HEIs into adopting BL. The researcher applies a grounded theory methodology by interviewing fifteen management members from the Ghana Technology University College (GTUC). The data was analysed using the constant comparative method and the findings discussed through the lenses of Rogers theory of innovation diffusion which is widely used to interpret how technologies are diffused from a limited to a widespread application on organizational practices. The outcome of this empirical research provides a set of drivers influencing the …</text>

                <text>This paper presents strategies adopted by a higher education institution towards the implementation of its BL policy framework. It does so by reviewing the BL implementation process of a public university in Ghana, noting that there are barriers that have impeded the uptake of blended learning, for which reasons it examines the strategies that can be implemented to overcome these barriers. The insights are drawn from a case study involving qualitative approaches, utilizing interviews with stakeholders in the public university. The paper examines the question: How do educational institutions employ Blended Learning (BL) strategies that contribute to the transformation of the university? Using an inductive approach, the researcher interviewed twenty-two management staff and used Strauss and Corbin’s constant comparative method as the analytical technique to analyze the data. This paper develops an institutional strategy framework that can be used by managers in higher education to facilitate change processes, overcome faculty resistance, and embed blended learning in institutions. The seven constructs of this strategic framework consist of institutional vision and approach, promotion and planning, integrated infrastructure, motivation and encouragement, training, assessment and evaluation and sanctions.</text>

                <text>Higher education institutions the world over is turning to Blended Learning (BL) as the preferred teaching and learning delivery approach. However, to attain campus-wide adoption requires an understanding of the influencing factors that motivate academics towards teaching in BL mode. Given this context, this paper presents findings from a qualitative study that investigates the lived experiences of academics as they adopt BL for teaching and learning in a Ghanaian university. Adopting a Grounded Theory as the methodology for this research within a sequential qualitative research design, data was collected from multiple sources. Primary data was obtained from in-depth interviews of 22 academics carried out to understand how they construct and navigate the BL teaching experiences. Secondary data was obtained from policy documents, faculty training signing sheets and Learning Management Systems (LMS) activity logs. The data was analysed using the constant comparative method and thematic analysis and triangulated to organize the themes and concepts for the proposed model. The outcome of the analytical process is theorized into an adoption model and grounded in the literature. The findings of the research provide very useful and practical model for administrators to stimulate Faculty motivation as they embark on BL implementation. The model indicates that external and internal environmental factors stimulate Faculty motivation to make a choice regarding the teaching modalities they prefer. It posits that as Faculty members begin to implement teaching process using technology, they become sensitized and begin to internalize the …</text>
