Title A name given to the resource IMPLEMENTING BLENDED LEARNING IN A GRADUATE COURSE IN A GHANAIAN UNIVERSITY: A PRACTICAL EXPERIENCE Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Stephen Asunka, D Okwabi Adjin Description An account of the resource Blended or Hybrid Learning - an approach to learning where Internet technologies are strategically integrated into face-to-face learning activities so as to better achieve learning objectives - is gaining worldwide acceptance, particularly in higher education. However, whilst some institutions have over a decade of experience with implementing blended learning, many others are beginning to explore its potential and feasibility within their peculiar contexts. The latter is particularly applicable to many institutions in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) that are grappling with financial constraints, low Internet bandwidth availability, high bandwidth costs, limited and unreliable power and communication infrastructure etc. Under these conditions, widespread adoption of blended learning is a considerable challenge. Consequently, research works aimed at establishing the effectiveness and validity of this mode of learning within the … Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available IATED Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2016 Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived https://scholar.google.com/citations?view_op=view_citation&hl=en&user=AXIuswEAAAAJ&cstart=20&pagesize=80&citation_for_view=AXIuswEAAAAJ:tH6gc1N1XXoC Language A language of the resource English https://repository.gctu.edu.gh/files/original/9c4775305fa0f50ff7839de897c0b3d2.pdf 086175b4eb3aef98b13ecf7c6ed0be4a 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 Instructor Perceptions and Intentions to Use a Tablet PC for Mobile Learning in a Ghanaian University Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Stephen Asunka Description An account of the resource This study used aspects of the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) to predict instructor acceptance and adoption of a tablet computer for mobile learning in a Ghanaian University. Following the distribution of a customized tablet PC (known as Campus Companion) to all instructors of the institution, and an expectation that they will use these devices to support and facilitate mobile learning, data on instructor perceptions, attitudes, and behavioral intention to use the technology were gathered and analyzed. Thirty-eight (38) instructors participated in the study. Findings show that instructors’ intentions to use the tablet PC for mobile learning are very low, and are significantly influenced by their perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use and attitude towards the device. Implications of these findings for practice and further research are discussed within the context of the adoption of m-learning within the Ghanaian higher education context in particular and the developing world in general.

Title A name given to the resource Pod storage with roasting: A tool to diversifying the flavor profiles of dark chocolates produced from ‘bulk’cocoa beans?(part I: Aroma profiling of chocolates) Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Michael Hinneh, Enoch Enorkplim Abotsi, Davy Van de Walle, Daylan Amelia Tzompa-Sosa, Ann De Winne, Julien Simonis, Kathy Messens, Jim Van Durme, Emmanuel Ohene Afoakwa, Luc De Cooman, Koen Dewettinck Description An account of the resource The impact of pod storage (PS) and roasting temperature (RT) on the aroma profiles of dark chocolates were evaluated. Cocoa liquor samples comprised of ten different combinations of PS and RT, whilst keeping the roasting time fixed at 35 min. Additionally, commercial cocoa liquors from renowned origins (Ecuador, Madagascar, Venezuela, Vietnam, Ivory Coast and Ghana) were acquired for comparison. From these, 70% dark chocolates were produced under the same conditions after which they were subjected to headspace solid-phase microextraction-gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (HS-SPME-GC–MS) analysis. Although both PS and RT were found to influence the aroma volatile concentrations, the impact of RT over PS seemed to be greater. An agglomerative hierarchical clustering (AHC) of all chocolates on the basis of their aroma profiles revealed a similar impact as earlier observed, where … 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 2019 Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived https://scholar.google.com/citations?view_op=view_citation&hl=en&user=EZuX1N8AAAAJ&pagesize=80&citation_for_view=EZuX1N8AAAAJ:x7obfLuV8acC Language A language of the resource English https://repository.gctu.edu.gh/files/original/584e2856f51f028a37cb7456a05de9df.pdf acad14bc4902624688637d4e31cc21fa 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 Early returns on an institutional repository: An exploration of the validity and functionality of Pocketknowledge Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource M Mentor, E Strome, S Asunka, G Agnitti, G Natriello Description An account of the resource This poster presentation will reflect qualitatively on the challenges and opportunities of PocketKnowledge (http://pocketknowledge.tc.columbia.edu/home.php) as an institutional repository. The main question explored is whether such repositories are best understood as new competitors in the academic publishing world or as on-going documentations of the larger intellectual life of the institution. The early experience of one such repository, PocketKnowledge - a social archive developed and implemented by EdLab, a research unit of the Gottesman Libraries, Teachers College Columbia University - reveals that users are motivated not only to participate in an institutional repository, but also to document their intellectual life understood more broadly than publication. This suggests that the latter understanding of an institutional repository is a more reasonable, incremental expectation in what is surely an uphill battle … Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available ACM/IEEE Joint Conference on Digital Libraries Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2008 Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived https://scholar.google.com/citations?view_op=view_citation&hl=en&user=AXIuswEAAAAJ&cstart=20&pagesize=80&citation_for_view=AXIuswEAAAAJ:WF5omc3nYNoC Language A language of the resource English https://repository.gctu.edu.gh/files/original/08255ec504ffc321f54912306ceb5493.pdf 62514db4ecd11af9b5df2ee5e648c5ea Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
