Title A name given to the resource JOURNAL OF LANGUAGE AND LINGUISTIC STUDIES Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Ivy Jones-Mensah, Michael Owusu Tabiri, Daniel Arkoh Fenyi Description An account of the resource This paper investigates the relationship that exists in the linguistic gyration of the annual speeches delivered by Otumfo Osei Tutu and Osagyefo Amoatia Ofori Panyin, who are both paramount Ghanaian royal chiefs of the Ashanti Kingdom and the Akyem Abuakwa Kingdom respectively. Although these prominent chiefs have delivered several speeches on several times and occasions and at different places and settings, this study paid particular attention to and selected only speeches that they delivered in academic environments, specifically, in universities in Ghana. These annual speeches used for the study were therefore those that were delivered at the University of Professional Studies and University of Education, Winneba campuses respectively. The analysis of the data was done based on the Hallidayan’s Systemic Functional Linguistic approach. The analysis reveals the incorporation of the ideology and power in the language of the royal speeches of the two paramount chiefs in Ghana and its influence on the university administrations and communities. Subsequently, the modality metafunction showed that the chiefs selected modal verbs to affirm and fulfill the tasks given them. From the data, it is evident that the traditional rulers can use language to communicate their strength, capabilities on the political administration and education spheres on the university communities.

Title A name given to the resource Forensic accounting: A novel paradigm and relevant knowledge in fraud detection and prevention Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Stephen Owusu Afriyie, Michael Owusu Akomeah, Gertrude Amoakohene, Benjamin Chris Ampimah, Chosniel Elikem Ocloo, Michael Owusu Kyei Description An account of the resource Forensic accounting is a new trend that goes beyond normal audit approaches and procedures for fraud identification. The practice applies reliable principles and methods to obtain sufficient facts or data that provide basis for prosecution in the law court. Forensic accountants characteristically need adequate know-how and skills for investigation and proactive audit to control fraud. With globalization of the economy, fraudsters can be found in any organization. These criminals take advantage of loopholes such as suspicious financial statement, defective internal controls, and poor corporate governance. Hence, there is a great need for skilled forensic accountants to detect, prevent and expose the weak system. The professionals can exercise their mandate by reporting the obvious cases of fraud committed to a law court for prosecution.

Title A name given to the resource Difficulties francophone learners go through in Ghana: The case of Ghana Technology University College Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Michael Owusu Tabiri, Gifty Budu Description An account of the resource Francophone learners who pursue further studies in Anglophone countries could face academic, social, economic, religious and political difficulties due to their literary incompetence in English language (L3). Through the method of investigation and answering of questionnaires by learners, it was uncovered and affirmed that the main difficulties Francophone learners encounter in Anglophone countries were academic, social, religious, and political. It was revealed that the learning difficulties of Francophone students transcend the academic setting. Thus in the church, entertainment grounds, market and other places they visit and interact, they face difficulties.

Title A name given to the resource Teaching Francophone learners English Vocabulary without Resorting to the Use of L1 and L2 Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Michael Owusu Tabiri Description An account of the resource This article sought to propose proper pedagogical means of teaching vocabulary without resorting to the use of L1 (Francophone learners⿿ Mother Tongue) or L2 (French language) when teaching Francophone learners English Language at all levels. It was revealed that adopting context clues or explanation techniques as well as concrete techniques in explaining new words or expressions was the most effective methodological approach in teaching vocabulary. Also, it has been uncovered didactically and pedagogically that the more senses are used to comprehend a word, the greater the likelihood of learning being successful. Thus if learners see a word, (as real pictures), feel the word (touching the thing), taste the word (by the way of eating) as well as hear it used in a sentence to show meaning, it would lead to retention and memorization of the vocabulary. In short, teachers and lecturers of all academic … 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 2016 Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived https://scholar.google.com/citations?view_op=view_citation&hl=en&user=c6aHdPkAAAAJ&citation_for_view=c6aHdPkAAAAJ:qjMakFHDy7sC Language A language of the resource English https://repository.gctu.edu.gh/files/original/25265569ea7c9d26b39f75c1fc5bb56b.pdf 7811a572a3ad51ba45f8c603b727c3c6 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 On the Gradient-Hamiltonian Systems to the Derivation of Economic Multivariate Total Functions Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource John Awuah Addor, Kwadwo Ankomah, Emmanuel Benson Description An account of the resource This paper highlights an application of Gradient or Hamiltonian (Grad-Ham) Systems in deriving multivariate total functions. The objective is to establish a relationship between Gradient or Hamiltonian systems and economic-oriented multivariate marginal functions, and demonstrate how they can significantly be applied to the derivation of economic multivariate total functions. The multivariate marginal functions are represented by the Grad-Ham systems of differential equations whose analytical solutions are based on the partial antiderivative technique. The paper establishes that all economic multivariate marginal functions can respectively be expressed as exact differential equations. It also uncovered that functions that can be optimized are conservative along their optimal paths and that these functions become the first integrals of their respective marginal systems. Finally, it introduces two model examples-one hypothetical and the other based on the Cobb-Douglas Production function-and presents their derivations thereof.

Title A name given to the resource Vocabulary knowledge of collocation in business texts: a case of ESL tertiary students Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Ivy Jones-Mensah, Michael Owusu Tabiri, Daniel Arkoh Fenyi, Angel Edward Kongo, Dickson Amexo Description An account of the resource The objective of this paper is to examine and discover the vocabulary knowledge of collocation issues in business students’ academic writing. To achieve the aim, a corpus-based investigation was conducted on essays of 40 tertiary business students to ascertain the extent to which they are exposed to certain key vocabulary of the field and how such words collocate with other words appropriately. Using the British Academic Written English (BAWE) McIsaac version (2019) and concordance (Vocabulary level Text and vocabulary level software, lextutor. ca) as analytic tools to determine the key vocabulary levels of the field, the study qualitatively streamlines the overuse and the underuse of the most common collocations by students who speak English as a Second Language (ESL) in a business tertiary institution, the University of Professional Studies, Accra. The findings show that there are lexical collocation errors such as word choice, business jargon, and contextual errors. The study further reveals that some collocations are overused in student corpora, including increased lexical repetitions and redundancy. We recommend that business tertiary students gain mastery over the vocabulary of their field since it gives them a greater ability to produce high-quality written texts, which aid in text comprehension.
