Title A name given to the resource Students’ learning experience within a blended learning environment in a higher education institution in Ghana Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Emmanuel Freeman, Ahmed Antwi-Boampong, Odeneho Baffoe-Kodom Agyemang Description An account of the resource Advances in information, communication, technology (ICT) particularly the internet is driving universities worldwide into integrating technology into teaching and learning in the classrooms. Ready access to multimedia learning platforms are encouraging faculty members to move away from traditional print-based and face-to-face teaching approach into adopting blended learning. However, insufficient learner satisfaction has been noted as an obstacle in most universities. In view of this, this paper assesses the learning experience of students within a blended learning environment in a Higher Education Institution (HEIs) in Ghana Technology University College (GTUC). The driving force for this study is to enhance students’ learning experience with the use of technology within a blended learning environment. The Learning Management System (LMS) adapted to engage students within the blended learning environment is Moodle. The study employed both qualitative and quantitative methods to measure the students’ learning experience. A total of 244 respondents from three different faculties and levels offering bachelors and master’s degree were used. The study employed simple descriptive analysis and thematic analysis to measure the student's learning experience within the blended learning environment. The impression from the findings indicates that the online learning engagements enhanced the face-to-face teaching and learning and also increased retention and performance among the students. It was however noted that poor internet connectivity, reluctant of some lecturers, lack of orientation affected the effective implementation of the … Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2019 Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived https://books.google.com/books?hl=en&lr=&id=ZMjBDwAAQBAJ&oi=fnd&pg=PA160&dq=info:ifwMWFIeLs0J:scholar.google.com&ots=NOLXoZY8IT&sig=FlExLVqAhvCkIbpDlph_LbvUtTU Language A language of the resource English https://www.repository.gctu.edu.gh/files/original/d3b59dbbba0bc58f0ad444de32fa178d.pdf 6bed1bd484642ee13ef46f7ba4b3adc8 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 Does human capital development impact nonrenewable energy use? Evidence from a developing economy Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource amuel Amoako, Lillian Arthur, Isaiah Sikayena Description An account of the resource The dilemma surrounding the use of fossil fuels has led to demands for renewable energy and other clean energy sources. Renewable energy sources are not only unlimited but also have less negative impact on the environment and promote energy independence. The study uses the recent redesign of education in Ghana to assess how improved access to education can impact nonrenewable energy consumption. Using annual time-series data from 1976 to 2020, we estimate the long-term impact of human capital development on nonrenewable energy consumption in Ghana. Dynamic Ordinary Least Squares (DOLS), Fully Modified Ordinary Least Squares (FMOLS) and Canonical Cointegration Regression (CCR) were used to check the robustness. The results show that the development of human capital (returns on education) reduces the use of nonrenewable energy.

Title A name given to the resource Examining the impact of the free senior high school policy and women empowerment on secondary school enrolment in Ghana: The bounds test approach Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Frank Gyimah Sackey, Richard Kofi Asravor, Isaac Ankrah, Lilian Arthur Description An account of the resource This study aims to investigate the impact of women empowerment and free senior high school on secondary school enrolment in Ghana. The Autoregressive Distributed Lags (ARDL) estimation method, which examines both short- and long-term effects, was utilized to analyze data obtained from the World Bank database and the ILO database covering the period 1992–2021. Employing the autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) modeling technique, it was observed that the proportion of women to men in parliament, the FSHS policy, and pre-secondary school enrollment all have positive effects on secondary school enrollment in both the short and long run. Again, though we observe a negative impact of FSHS on female secondary school enrollment in the short run, in the long run, it increases the enrollment by large, while we observe that women to men in parliament and presecondary school enrollment also … Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available Cogent Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2023 Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived https://scholar.google.com/citations?view_op=view_citation&hl=en&user=8wFumg4AAAAJ&citation_for_view=8wFumg4AAAAJ:UeHWp8X0CEIC Language A language of the resource English https://www.repository.gctu.edu.gh/files/original/0e2ec1e348b6a6924bb494101418be2b.pdf a64aa6f9d3b9f7c2d20a9b22dff18abe 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 Modeling ICT adoption and electricity consumption in emerging digital economies: Insights from the West African Region Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Isaac Ankrah, Michael Appiah Kubi, Sampson Twumasi-Ankrah, Frank Gyimah Sackey, Richard Asravor, Brenya Boahemaa, Derrick Donkor, Lilian Arthur, Christopher Lamptey, Eric Ekobor-Ackah Mochiah Description An account of the resource This study investigates the impact of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) on electricity consumption in West Africa, employing a dynamic panel data model. The results show a significant long-term positive effect of ICT adoption on electricity consumption. Notably, internet connections increase the demand for electricity, with estimates ranging from 13.4 % to 19.3 %. While mobile phone subscriptions demonstrate modest positive effect of 6.85 %, personal computer ownership appears to have a negligible impact. The study contributes to the existing literature by offering a detailed examination of the distinct effects of different ICT components on electricity consumption, incorporating a novel estimation approach and sensitivity analyses that account for the COVID-19 pandemic and the Anglo-French linguistic divide.

Title A name given to the resource Is energy transition possible for oil-producing nations? Probing the case of a developing economy Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Isaac Ankrah, Kingsley Dogah, Sampson Twumasi-Ankrah, Frank Gyimah Sackey, Richard Asravor, Derrick Ofori Donkor, Christopher Lamptey, Lilian Arthur Description An account of the resource An expected decline in oil revenue and a complicated global energy market present significant concerns about oil-producing countries’ intentions to move away from fossil fuels. Understanding the dynamics of these concerns, particularly in light of potential energy transitions, is crucial for future energy supply and sustainable energy discussion. Given the scarcity of research on the issue, this study examined whether an implied shift from fossil fuels to a cleaner energy state is possible for Ghana, a small oil-producing economy in sub-Saharan Africa. A two-state Markov Switching Model (MSM) was applied to a dataset covering 1980–2019. Results based on a multivariate state-dependent regression technique were documented as follows: First, the probability of transitioning from a nonrenewable energy state to a renewable energy state is 76.5%. Second, there is 80.2% chance of remaining in a renewable energy … Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available Elsevier Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2023 Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived https://scholar.google.com/citations?view_op=view_citation&hl=en&user=8wFumg4AAAAJ&citation_for_view=8wFumg4AAAAJ:d1gkVwhDpl0C Language A language of the resource English https://www.repository.gctu.edu.gh/files/original/547fabedbf7d0db039fc02ce0f82bcf7.pdf 9395e3d6219138b55b3481ffc8911b7a 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 Nature-inspired search method for IoT-based water leakage location detection system Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Emmanuel Freeman, Daniel Ayitey Quaye, Israel Edem Agbehadji, Richard C Millham Description An account of the resource Detecting water leakage and reporting the leakage timely is one of the challenges faced by water distributing companies in developing nations. This paper employs a nature-inspired search method for optimal location search to water leakage sources for Ghana Water and Sewage Services Company. The nature-inspired method aid in mapping IoT-edge computing devices used by the water and sewage workers, especially in the cities and urban areas, to find and locate leaked pipelines. Once, a water and sewage worker receive a trigger from any location that there are leakages, the algorithm generates the location data which automatically processes the distance, geographic location, and direction. In this paper, a nature-inspired algorithm based on the behaviour of a Kestrel bird was used as the mapping function. The developed algorithm was tested and evaluated using pre-defined and random locations based … Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available IEEE Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2020 Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived https://scholar.google.com/citations?view_op=view_citation&hl=en&user=rQvaaoMAAAAJ&citation_for_view=rQvaaoMAAAAJ:Se3iqnhoufwC Language A language of the resource English https://www.repository.gctu.edu.gh/files/original/1f83ccad70d566f5edf118ae8748588a.pdf 874ddbac1f75e3f289c3b45c5bccea24 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 Strategic Marketing of Higher Education in Africa Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Robert Ebo Hinson Description An account of the resource The higher education landscape is changing. The global competition for students’ enrolments has increased around the world. Universities are competing within their home market as well as in the international market. As government funding for public universities is reducing, there is pressure on universities to seek additional income by increasing their student enrolment. Attracting and enrolling students has become increasingly more challenging, as student behaviour is changing. These challenges present the need for higher education institutions to be more strategic in their approach to reaching out to prospective students. This concluding chapter on strategic marketing of higher education in Africa presents practical implications and critical insights into strategic marketing and brand communications of higher education institutions in Africa. Agenda for future research were also provided. It is anticipated that this will shape further discussion and theoretical advancement which will be relevant for scholars, students, managers, practitioners, and policymakers in the field of higher education marketing.

Title A name given to the resource Domestic debt sustainability and economic growth: evidence from Ghana Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Richard Kofi Asravor, Lilian Akosua Arthur, Vera Acheampong, Christopher Lamptey, Maxwell Yeboah Description An account of the resource The rate at which Ghana’s domestic debt is increasing has raised concerns among economists and policymakers, due to the former’s potential effect on private sector growth, economic growth rate and debt sustainability. The objective of this study is to examine Ghana’s domestic debt, its sustainability on economic growth rate and the causal relationship between debt and growth. Using data from the World Bank and the Ministry of Finance for the period between 1994 and 2018, we estimate an ARDL Model to examine the effect of domestic debt on economic growth and private sector investment. We adopt the cointegration and fully modified regression to examine domestic debt sustainability. The results indicate that increases in Ghana’s domestic debt are growth-enhancing while increased in importation is growth-inhibiting. The fully modified regression and Johansen co-integration test model also suggest that the … Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available Elsevier Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2023 Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived https://scholar.google.com/citations?view_op=view_citation&hl=en&user=8wFumg4AAAAJ&citation_for_view=8wFumg4AAAAJ:9yKSN-GCB0IC Language A language of the resource English https://www.repository.gctu.edu.gh/files/original/558a461af59cac2f9185f1b7fe6a9921.pdf 8ba45106381014dd44e13603e5b83f7c Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
