Title A name given to the resource Overcoming barriers to faculty adoption of a Learning Management System: The case of Regent University College in Ghana Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Stephen Asunka Description An account of the resource Following a realization that a Web-based Learning Management System (LMS) deployed by a University in Ghana remained largely unused by instructors, the university’s management intervened. The university wishes to expand access to its educational resources through the use of Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs). Since instructors play a pivotal role in this direction, all instructors were trained, motivated, and appropriately resourced to enable them to use the LMS effectively to deliver courses. Five years down the line, however, most instructors are still ambivalent towards using the LMS software. This chapter discusses the case extensively and concludes by suggesting that one approach that might help solve the problem will be to engage all instructors in participatory activities aimed at collectively identifying and addressing the issues and challenges.

Title A name given to the resource Overview of Social Media and Africa’s Public Sector Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Robert Ebo Hinson Description An account of the resource This chapter offers an overview of important aspects of how public sector entities across the African continent are leveraging digital and social media channels to achieve various strategic ends, including enhancing public communication, more effectively engaging citizens in democracy and governance, improving public service delivery, crisis communication and management, government image enhancement, boosting internal communication within public sector organizations, and achieving financial goals. The chapter profiles significant facets of the African sociocultural milieu, including some contemporary stimulants and barriers to digital and social media use by public sector organizations across Africa. Overall, the chapter illuminates patterns of employment of major social media channels by public sector organizations in Africa. It uniquely positions the book as helping develop a systematic approach to understanding many transformations taking place within the African public sector landscape, with the view to enriching understanding of social media practices and how these could be better integrated into the operational activities of public sector institutions in Africa. It discusses integrated literature review and textual analysis as major methods for collecting and analysing data for the entire book and describes the overall structure of remainder of the book.

Title A name given to the resource Owner-managers failure experience and business model innovations in B2B firms: The roles of coopetition, managerial persistence, and financial resource slack Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Richard B Nyuur, Francis Donbesuur, Diana Owusu-Yirenkyi, George Oppong Appiagyei Ampong, Ahmed Adel Tantawy Description An account of the resource This study proposes and tests a model of how and when previous failure experience can impact on subsequent business model innovation of business-to-business (B2B) SMEs. Analysis of survey data from a sample of 182 B2B SMEs in Ghana indicates that failure experience is positively related to business model innovation – and that coopetition capability mediates this failure experience. Further analysis of boundary condition effects reveals that high levels of financial resource slack strengthen the positive relationship between coopetition and business model innovation, while the level of managerial persistence has no effect on failure experience and coopetition relationship. We discuss the theoretical and managerial implications of these findings.

Title A name given to the resource Particle size distribution and compositional effects on textural properties and appearance of dark chocolates Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Emmanuel Ohene Afoakwa, Alistair Paterson, Mark Fowler, Joselio Vieira Description An account of the resource Particle size distribution (PSD) and composition in dark chocolate were varied and their effects on textural properties of molten and tempered chocolates determined using a TA.HD Plus Texture Analyzer. Surface colour was evaluated in terms of CIELAB parameters L*, C* and h° using a HunterLab Miniscan Colorimeter. Compositional parameters for particle size distribution were [D90 (>90% finer) of 18μm, 25μm, 35μm and 50μm], fat (25%, 30% and 35%) and lecithin (0.3% and 0.5%) contents. Results showed that PSD, fat and lecithin content significantly (P⩽0.05) influenced the textural parameters with significant interactions among factors. Particle size was inversely correlated with firmness (1235–173g), consistency (50,410–7029gs), cohesiveness (1594–262g), index of viscosity (5737–1099gs) and hardness (7062–5546g) with chocolates containing 25% fat and 0.3% lecithin.

Instead, it is about finding solutions to problems that arise when first learning to program. https://www.repository.gctu.edu.gh/files/original/c526a3b536548f966dabf0b1108a7a40.pdf 53f3c939b617f185e60410fd416c479b Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Title A name given to the resource Peace Operations in Northern Ghana: A Comparative Analysis of State-Sponsored Peace Operations in the Dagbon, Konkomba-Nanumba and Nawuri-Gonja Conflicts in the Northern Region of Ghana Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Cletus Kwaku Mbowura Description An account of the resource It is axiomatic that state-sponsored peace operations are conducted in Ghana aimed at combating conflicts. In the Dagbon intra-ethnic conflict and theNawuri-Gonja and KonkombaNanumbainter-ethnic conflicts in present-day Northern Region of Ghana, state-sponsored peace operations were marshalled to either prevent the outbreak of conflicts, de-escalate tensions or combat the conflicts to ensure law and order. Some of the security measures rolled out as part of the peace operations in these conflicts included strategies such as a combined military-police patrols, mounting checkpoints to prevent the inflow of arms, the imposition of state of emergency, increasing security presence in the volatile areas, among others. This paper explores the security arrangements in the peace operations in theDagbon, Konkomba-Nanumba and Nawuri-Gonja conflicts in the Northern Region of Ghana. Blending written and unwritten data together in an orthodox historical tradition, this study argues that the measures were not entirely successful.
