Title A name given to the resource Collaborative online learning in non-formal education settings in the developing world: A best practice framework Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource S Asunka Description An account of the resource In the present knowledge economy, individuals, particularly working adults, need to continuously acquire purposeful knowledge and skills so they can better contribute towards addressing society’s ever-changing developmental challenges. In the developing world however, few opportunities exist for working adults to acquire such new learning experiences through the formal education sector, and this makes it imperative for organizations to develop non-formal education and training programs to help address this need. With the proliferation of Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) worldwide, this article recommends the adoption of Collaborative Online Learning (COL) by non-formal learning organizations as a means of helping address the education and training needs of working adults. The article thus provides an overview of COL, and then draws on the research literature on relevant theories to … Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available igi publishing Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2011 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:u-x6o8ySG0sC Language A language of the resource English https://repository.gctu.edu.gh/files/original/d6b3a7592c823b71e38739d3658afeed.pdf 29d1e6007b7d11e52944e769923b06ed 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 Helping faculty overcome cultural barriers to adoption and use of web-based learning technologies: A participatory action research approach Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Stephen Asunka Description An account of the resource This study adopted a participatory action research (PAR) approach to identify and address some cultural factors that contribute in hindering faculty adoption and use of a Learning Management System (LMS) for Web-based learning at a university in Ghana. This followed a realization that an LMS that the university deployed for E-learning purposes, and had been available for over five years, remained largely unused by faculty members despite that they have been trained, motivated and appropriately resourced to do so. With a preliminary investigation revealing the possible role of cultural factors, this study drew on some aspects of Hofstede's cultural dimensions theory to conceptualize a research framework, and subsequently engaged 10 faculty members in a semester-long action study. Findings show that by collectively identifying the cultural underpinnings, and conscientiously working on them, faculty members … Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available IGI Global 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:dBIO0h50nwkC Language A language of the resource English https://repository.gctu.edu.gh/files/original/f4c390f528d2d47ea2b2c513def4aaa4.pdf f1f03eb5b2da2c8c70482aa897ad0f81 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 Blend or Flip: An Assessment of Graduate Students' Preferences for Technology-Enabled Learning Initiatives within the Sub-Saharan African Context Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Stephen Asunka Description An account of the resource Recent advances in information and communication technologies (ICTs), particularly wireless broadband Internet access and communicating devices, are offering higher education institutions a greater opportunity to implement several innovative learning initiatives. Two of such technology enabled learning initiatives that have emerged and are spreading rapidly are: i. Blended, or Hybrid Learning - an approach to learning where Internet based, and face-to-face learning activities are integrated in ways to facilitate learning and thus achieve learning objectives, and ii. Flipped Learning - an approach which aims at improving learning outcomes by reversing the traditional teaching setup: students acquire basic content outside of class, and then work together in class on application-oriented activities.

Title A name given to the resource Using the webquest approach to elicit student engagement in a university course: A case study Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Stephen Asunka Description An account of the resource Following a realization that first year undergraduate students at a private university in Ghana engaged very minimally in their learning processes, and consequently obtained very weak grades in their courses, this study adopted a qualitative research approach to investigate whether the integration of a WebQuest into the learning processes can help foster student engagement through interactivity, and thus improve learning outcomes. Five students and one instructor participated in the study, and over the course of one academic semester, teaching and learning processes were varied by introducing WebQuest-based learning. Data were gathered by observing student activities as they engaged in the learning processes, and also assessing student learning and satisfaction by looking at student grades and also administering a survey questionnaire to students.

Title A name given to the resource Applicability of the melanger for chocolate refining and Stephan mixer for conching as small-scale alternative chocolate production techniques Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Michael Hinneh, Davy Van de Walle, Julie Haeck, Enoch Enorkplim Abotsi, Ann De Winne, Arifin Dwi Saputro, Kathy Messens, Jim Van Durme, Emmanuel Ohene Afoakwa, Luc De Cooman, Koen Dewettinck Description An account of the resource Conventional dark chocolate production methods that are applied in the industry consist of several steps, which require equipment with big investment costs. There are however few cost-effective alternatives suggested for small-scale production. Meanwhile, knowledge on these alternative equipment/techniques are insufficient to promote miniature production of high quality chocolates, either for research purposes in an industrial context, or for producers in developing countries, where the cost of investing in conventional equipment seems to be an impediment. The aim of this study was two-fold; first, to assess the feasibility of utilizing the ECGC-12SLTA CocoaTown melanger as an alternative to the conventional 3-roll refiner at different settings and fat content. Thereafter, one optimal setting was selected for each equipment for further investigation on the impact of the refining on some quality attributes of the final … 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:W1ZWpF0a3GIC Language A language of the resource English 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 Viscoelastic properties and physico-functional characterization of six high yielding cassava mosaic disease-resistant cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) genotypes Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Emmanuel Ohene Afoakwa, A Budu, S Asiedu, C Chiwona-Karltun, DB Nyirenda Description An account of the resource Investigations were conducted to characterize six high yielding cassava mosaic disease (CMD) resistant cassava varieties (Ampong, Broni bankye, Sika, Otuhia, Amakuma and Bankye fitaa) that have been developed by the Crop Research Institute of Ghana in collaboration with the International Institute for Tropical Agriculture for their differences and similarities in viscoelastic properties and physico-functional characteristics. The viscoelastic properties (pasting temperature, peak viscosity, final viscosity, breakdown viscosity and setback viscosity), and physico-functional characteristics (swelling power, solubility and water binding capacity) were determined using standard analytical methods. The results showed wide variations in viscoelastic properties with values ranging from 270.67-380.67 BU for peak viscosity, 37.17-260 BU for final viscosity, 199.83-282.33 BU for breakdown viscosity, 21.83-98.66 BU for setback viscosity and 2.48-10.51 min time to pasting temperature. Similarly, variations in swelling power, solubility and water binding capacity were noted with values ranging between 14.34-17.04%, 73.04-79.98% and 234.53-276.63% respectively for all the different cassava genotypes. Statistical analysis showed significant differences (P< 0.05) amongst the studied cassava genotypes with Sika (improved variety) having exceptionally high viscoelastic characteristics. The differences noted in the viscoelastic properties and physico-functional characteristics of the six CMD resistant cassava genotypes could be used in their selection for specific food and industrial processing applications.

Title A name given to the resource Investigating the rheological, microstructural and textural properties of chocolates sweetened with palm sap-based sugar by partial replacement Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Arifin Dwi Saputro, Davy Van de Walle, Sheida Kadivar, Mohd Dona Bin Sintang, Paul Van der Meeren, Koen Dewettinck Description An account of the resource Palm sugar, a natural alternative sweetener which can be made from the nectar of several species of palm tree flowers, recently gains more interest. Due to its physicochemical characteristics, utilisation of palm sugar as chocolate sweetener results in different quality attributes of chocolate. In this work, a thorough investigation about the influence of palm sugar on the rheological, microstructural and textural characteristics of chocolate was carried out through partial replacement of sucrose as chocolate sweetener. Accordingly, five sucrose–palm sugar blends with different palm sugar (PS) proportion, namely PS0, PS25, PS50, PS75, and PS100 were used as chocolate sweetener. The results showed that the Casson yield value of chocolate containing palm sugar was lower than the Casson yield value of chocolate sweetened with pure sucrose which could be attributed to the presence of agglomerates in the … Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available Springer Berlin Heidelberg Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2017 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:wyCGhLAOp5UC Language A language of the resource English Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
