Division System

Educational managers in tertiary institutions operate basically in four areas: to maximise results, by harmonising immediate and longrange goals; to establish precise goals and measurable objectives; and to evaluate progress toward pre-determined goals and objectives, to organise, motivate, communicate and sh-engthen superordinates, peers and subordinates. In employing MBO the registrar and others in his department would define the major areas of their responsibilities and establish measures for operation. For instance, in the major areas. Thus the three satellite campuses of the University College of Education, Winneba, operating under a common mission may visibly embrace the principle of MBO, for after all, the large number 163 of disciplines and the interrelationship through the division system put the university in a better position to assemble the necessary skills and expertise to attain the mission and visions of a young multi-campus university.

This study was conducted to ascertain records management practices at the Ghana Communications Technology University (formerly Ghana Technology University College) a mid-sized Ghanaian public university located in Accra. All the staff at the Admissions and Records departments participated in the study. This comprised two (2) heads of department and seven (7) senior staff from both departments. The face-to-face interviews were employed as a data collection instrument for this study. The findings indicated that the University has neither a policy to regulate the management of students' records nor a professional archivist to manage records. However, the head of the Records office was given a three-day training on the assumption of office. It was revealed that the head of admissions, as well as all the staff of the two departments, had never been given any training. There were some challenges impeding records management in the Admissions and Records offices– among them are; lack of adequate staff, inadequate storage equipment, lack of periodic training, lack of policy to guide records management and inability of students to furnish the Admission office with the needed information. It was recommended that the University should employ a professional archivist to manage student records, provide adequate storage facilities, organise periodic training for staff as well promulgate a policy to guide records management in the Admissions and Records offices.

Enrolment Expansion

As enrolments keep expanding in tertiary institutions teaching spaces become a scare commodity. This is often so because expansion in teaching and laboratory spaces are not keeping pace with expansion in student enrolments. Efficicency in the managment of available teaching spaces becomes the watch word for institutions seeking to expand student intake. The University College of Education of Winneba which first grew out of three diploma awarding institutions had to accommodate a larger student number in its apparently overused teaching spaces in the first semester of 1992/93 session.  The use made of teaching space hitherto was assessed ex post facto. A central timetable, in which all teaching spaces on the three campuses were pooled for shared use by all students was then launched. The existing teaching spaces were not only sufficient but had rooms to spare for new programme of distant education and for residential accommodation. The use of the remaining rooms restricted to teaching (and which could accommodate were classes) were then re-assessed in March 1993 and the utilization rate increased from 25.4% to 38.9%. The installation of the central timetable on the campuses unlocked the golden gate for enrolment expansion at Winneba

The existence of new students at a tertiary institution is a routine activity every year in a tertiary institution and can also see the sustainability of the tertiary institution. The variety of regional origin of new students makes the party from the university want to see the distribution of new students based on the origin of the school and its place of residence. STIKOM Tunas Bangsa is one of the tertiary institutions in Pematangsiantar. It aims to promote the university. K-Medoids is able to group data on the distribution of new students in STIKOM Tunas Bangsa Pematangsiantar. The clusters produced in this study are of three clusters. The validity used in this study is the validity of Silhoutte Coefficient. The validity value generated in the K-Medoids algorithm produces a validity value of -116.47 by assuming that if the non-medoids value produced S

The study investigated the level of students’ participation in quality assurance management and tertiary institutions effectiveness in Nigeria. Four null hypotheses were formulated to guide the study. The design adopted was correlational research design. The population was made up of 423 2018/2019 session students’ union officials. A sample of 160 was randomly selected from three (University of Calabar, Cross River University of Technology and Federal College of Education, Obudu) public tertiary institutions in the area. The instrument used for data collection was questionnaire (Students’ Participation in Quality Assurance Management Questionnaire (SPQAMQ) validated by experts in test and measurement. It contained 28 items constructed in a 4-point Likert scale. Pearson Product Moment Correlation Statistics was used for data analysis. The result of the analysis revealed a significant positive relationship between students’ participation in decision-making, discipline management, quality assurance committees and school plant maintenance and tertiary institution management when tested at 0.05 level of significance. Based on the findings it was recommended that students should be adequately motivated through quality participation in school governance to enhance their academic achievement and development of basic leadership skills.

Goals And Objectives

This study measured the level of awareness, understanding, acceptability, clarity and consistency by the Benquet State University’s personnel of the University, College and Department’s vision, goals, mission and objectives (VGMO). The study also determined the manner by which the VGMOs were disseminated. The results of the study showed that brochures are the most frequent manner of disseminated materials that display the University’s VGMOs, leading to higher levels of awareness of them. The level of awareness, understanding, acceptability, and consistency of the University’s VGMOs, the College’s goals and objectives and the Department’s program objectives were analog for both male and female personnel, but the clarity levels differed significantly. Faculty members, compared to non-faculty members, have higher levels of awareness, understanding, acceptability, clarity and consistency in their recognition of BSU’s VGMOs.

The paper investigates whether or not parents influence their children’s choice for tertiary institution to attend. Education has increasingly become more important in this present age to the extent that, without higher qualifications, employment and success become very difficult to achieve. Parents are trying to send their children to tertiary institutions so that these children will be employable. But the question is: Do parents choose the tertiary institutions for their children? The paper wants to find out whether or not parents have a say in their children’s choice for tertiary institution; and if so, look at factors that could play in the choice. A survey was conducted at the University of Venda from February 2015 to June 2015 and 500 students were conveniently sampled and interviewed. Using some statistical analyses, including Generalized Linear Modelling (GLM), the study concludes that age and the campus environment are the only factors that determine parents’ influence on their children’s choice for higher education. The study further shows that female students are more influenced by their parents than males in the choice of higher institution.

SCAMPER is a technique that can be used to spark creativity and help overcome challenges that might be encountered in the form of a list of general goals with ideas spurring questions. This research aims to develop students' problem solving skills using the SCAMPER method in terms of student motivation. The population in this study were all semester V students of mathematics education study programs, which were also the research samples. From the analysis of the data it was found that the SCAMPER method was better in developing students' problem solving abilities with an average increase of 0.52 compared to conventional methods with an average increase of 0.45. In addition there is a difference between improving students' problem solving abilities when viewed from their motivation. But there is no interaction between motivational factors and learning methods.
