Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system is a very powerful solution to many academic and non-academic institutions in case it has been implemented and used effectively. Otherwise, the system will interrupt several business processes. This research paper investigates the impact of ERP system on academic performance at Sohar University. A survey questionnaire is distributed to several academic stakeholders to investigate the impact of ERP system on academic performance within the University context. A total of 110 questionnaires was received from the key academic stakeholders to examine the relationship between the three core ERP modules i.e. the students’ information module, the financial module, and human resource module. The research outcomes indicate that there is a relationship between the three modules and the academic performance. However, only students’ information module and financial management module demonstrate a significant impact on academic performance, though the human resource module shows no impact on the academic performance at Sohar University. This study is a single case study approach, which might limit the findings to be generalized on other education institutes, but it gives a chance to other researchers to do multiple case studies in other Universities in the region.

Se estudian nuevas variables asociadas a la pandemia covid 19, que pudiesen ser generadores de estrés que influyen en el rendimiento estudiantil. Diversos factores causan estrés académico a nivel de estudiantes universitarios: inexperiencia en el manejo de estrategias de educación a distancia, falta de internet, entre otros. Se destaca el impacto que la epidemia está teniendo en el rendimiento académico de los estudiantes. Como caso de estudio, se aplicaron encuestas entrevistas a estudiantes de una universidad pública y una privada. Resultados preliminares muestran una disminución de la motivación al estudio y del rendimiento académico con un aumento de la ansiedad y dificultades para adecuarse a la modalidad a distancia. La mayoría de estudiantes de las públicas tienen problemas de internet, y no cuentan con computadores ni celulares de alta tecnología. En cambio, estos aspectos son más ventajosos en los estudiantes de las privadas.   New variables associated with the covid 19 pandemic are studied, which could be generators of stress that influence student performance. Various factors cause academic stress at the level of university students: inexperience in managing distance education strategies, lack of internet, among others. The impact that the epidemic is having on the academic performance of students is highlighted. As a case study, interview surveys were applied to students from a public and a private university. Preliminary results show a decrease in motivation to study and academic performance with an increase in anxiety and difficulties in adapting to the distance modality. Most public students have internet problems, and do not have high-tech computers or cell phones. On the other hand, these aspects are more advantageous in the students of the private schools

<p>This study sought to establish the impact of gendered cultural codes on the academic performance of female students at a university in Masvingo, Zimbabwe. The qualitative paradigm involving a case study design was considered the best approach for the current study. A case study design was chosen since the study of culture, gender and academic performance is ethnographic in nature hence the design is most suitable. A sample of thirty female students was conveniently sampled from a population of all part two to four female undergraduates at the institution. In-depth interviews and open-ended questionnaires were the tools which were used to collect data. This study revealed that the academic performance of university female students was greatly influenced by gender codes. The findings indicated that gender codes such as domestic chores and societal beliefs that females are home makers have negative effects on their academic performance. The study also revealed that students advocate emancipation from the bulk of domestic chores. This study recommends that the education system design a syllabus which includes gender issues that will be included in the mainstream curriculum where it can be considered as a subject. This may gradually initiate males in doing domestic chores without destroying the cultural fabric of the society.</p>
