                <text>Artificial Intelligence (AI) is reshaping numerous sectors, including education. This study delves into AI in education (AIEd) within Africa, analyzing its trends, opportunities, challenges, and prospective paths. Employing the PRISMA framework, we systematically reviewed 22 articles published from 2017 to 2022. Our findings underscore the pivotal role of AIEd in Africa\'s educational landscape, highlighting the shift towards adaptive testing, particularly computer-adaptive testing (CAT), and its advantages, like precise student assessments and reduced test durations. The study also explores strategies to enhance graduate employability, emphasizing university-industry collaborations, curriculum updates, and quality assurance. Furthermore, it examines the implications of the Fourth Industrial Revolution (4IR) in education, advocating for integrating emerging technologies and adapting educational content and practices …</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>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>The study investigated factors influencing the adoption of technology in the port supply chain industry in the West African Sub-region, using the Ghana Customs Integrated System (GCIS) as a case study. This non-experimental quantitative study leveraged the extended unified theory of the acceptance and use of technology (UTAUT2) as the theoretical foundation to assess whether performance expectancy (PE), behavioral intent (BI), effort expectancy (EE), social influence (SI), facilitating conditions (FC), hedonic motivation (HM), price value (PV), and habit (HT) were predictors of the intention of port users to participate in a GCIS in the port sector while moderated by age. The sample comprises 906 individuals who live in Ghana and work in the formal sector of the port industry. SurveyMonkey platform sent a solicitation email to individuals who met the inclusion criteria with a link that allowed consenting participants to complete a questionnaire of 32 questions. The study used principal component analysis (PCA) and confirmatory factor analysis (structural equation modeling) to analyze and report data. Findings show that only performance expectancy, effort expectancy, and habit influenced the behavioral intention of port users to participate in the integrated customs management system in the Ghanaian port sector. Facilitating conditions, social influence, hedonic motivation, and price value did not affect behavioral intention. Neither did age have a moderating effect on any variable’s influence on behavioral intention. This study offers a deeper insight into the adoption of BYOD in the Ghanaian workplace. The findings can help researchers explain the …</text>

                <text>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 …</text>

                <text>This study examines the adoption of smart contracts from the legal, technological, and cultural perspectives in the port supply chain network and how these factors influence smart contracts enforceability. This study follows a Design Science Research (DSR) approach that guides developing IT artefacts and their use in practice. To develop our framework, relevance was achieved by investigating shortcomings of smart contract implementations relative to enforceability within the knowledge base of blockchain technology implementations. Additionally, thirty-five major stakeholders were interviewed for their lived experiences. The constant comparative analytical method was applied using open coding for initial categorization of smart contract concepts and axial coding for removal of overlapping concepts while iteratively testing the concepts against data.

                <text>The study assessed the factors that influence the adoption of blockchain (BC) in Ghana's public procurement delivery. The study adopted correctional design and utilized the extended unified theory of the acceptance and use of technology (UTAUT2) as the conceptual basis to determine whether performance expectancy (PE), behavioral intent (BI), effort expectancy (EE), social influence (SI), facilitating conditions (FC), hedonic motivation (HM), price value (PV), and habit (HT) were predictors of the intention of state owned enterprises to adopt blockchain programs in the implementation of the public procurement act. Only four constructs, namely PE, EE, FC, and HT, were found to influence the behavioral intention (BI) of service providers to participate in a BC. This study provides a deeper understanding of the adoption of BC in the delivery of public contracts.</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>Blended Learning has not attained campus-wide integration and adoption as the preferred teaching delivery mode by faculty members a few years after the management of a public university in Ghana decided to move from face to face delivery to the blended mode. This study investigates the barriers impacting faculty Blended Learning in Ghana. The study uses an exploratory qualitative approach to investigate the barriers to faculty non-adoption of blended learning. It also investigates their perceptions and experiences. A total of 22 faculty members from four faculties of the university were purposively selected and interviewed for this study. The data were coded and analyzed using a constant comparative analytical method. Thematic analysis was then applied to generate themes for the findings. The study found four themes that inductively constitute barriers to faculty BL adoption. These are infrastructure, faculty concerns, institutional, technical support barriers. The study provides insights into the lived experiences of faculty members relative to the impediments they face in adopting BL. Thus, administrative managers need to avert their attention to institutional related barriers, faculty related concerns, technical barriers, and infrastructure-related barriers when implementing BL.</text>
