A framework for capacity building amongst academic staff in Ghanaian polytechnics

Korantwi-Barimah, Justice Solomon. January 2015 (has links)
D. Tech. Human Resources Management / The main purpose of this study was to develop a framework that could be used to build the capacity of academic staff to enhance teaching and learning in Ghanaian polytechnics. In order to achieve this objective, a central argument in the study is that building the capacity of academics is not only critical to successful teaching and learning, it should also be the starting point for the on-going transformation in the polytechnic system in Ghana. The approaches to capacity building of employees in organisations were analysed critically and justified. To provide a strategic context to the study, four capacity building factors, namely institutional training and development, performance and professional development, academic competence, and a learning and developmental environment, were identified and clarified and their strategic contributions toward developing a capacity building strategy were outlined.

Counselling as a critical tool in managing ill-discipline behaviour in colleges of education in Ghana

Fosu-Ayarkwah, Charles 21 April 2021 (has links)
Ill-discipline behaviour has become a canker that threatens the moral fibre of institutions. The purpose of this study was to explore how discipline measures and practices were viewed by teacher trainees and college managers alike. Furthermore, to determine what comprehensive counselling approaches were in place to manage ill-discipline behaviour acts in colleges of education in Ghana. A qualitative discourse analysis study design was employed in the study. In all, 25 participants were purposively selected from five colleges of education for the study using a semi-structured interview guide. Data collected was transcribed, coded, categorized and qualitatively analysed under themes that emerged from the analysis using the thematic approach. The study revealed that several illdiscipline behaviour acts exist in colleges of education, with perversion being the most prevailing ill-discipline behaviour act. The study also revealed that tertiarization of colleges is the major cause of ill-discipline behaviour among students in the colleges of education and poor academic performance being the major negative effect of ill-discipline behaviour in the colleges of education. The study recommended that the college council and management should put adequate measures in place to strengthen Guidance and Counselling units in the colleges of education. The study also recommended that college counsellors should be equipped to use appropriate counselling approaches and techniques to counsel students to desist from indulging in ill-discipline behaviour acts. / Educational Management and Leadership / D.
