  • Paper for B(&N
    International Journal of Humanities and Social Science Vol. 9 • No. 2 • February 2019 doi:10.30845/ijhss.v9n2p18 Evaluating the Dialogic Potential of Websites of Universities in Ghana Rhodalene Amartey Final Year Doctoral Student (PhD) Business Administration Accra Institute of Technology Abstract The purpose of this paper is to examine the dialogic communications potential of websites of universities in Ghana. The study employed a quantitative content analysis of universities websites in Ghana drawing upon Kent and Taylor’s (1998) dialogic communications framework. The results show that many of the websites do not have dialogic principles. Many of the websites do not contain relevant information. Besides, many of the information are dated. The websites do not have features that conserve visitors and many also do not have dialogic loop features. From the findings, the researcher proposes that interaction between websites and users must be considered when websites are being developed Keywords: Ghana, University, Dialogic Communication Theory and Dialogic Principles Introduction: The emergence of the Internet has transformed how organizations communicate with their stakeholders. Communication practices do not evolve as quickly as technology does. This is especially true for educational institutions. The internet therefore offers the potential for educational institutions to share their mission statement and vision to any potential student around the world who may be interested in any of their programmes. However, these educational institutions must be ready to explore the advantages of the interactive sources a website brings to an organization. According to some studies (Waters and Tindall 2010; Kent & Taylor, 1998), there are specific elements of dialogic communication that organizations can take advantage of to make their websites more useful in cultivating relationships with their target groups.

  • Internal Control Systems and Performance of Life Insurers: Ghanaian Case
    Research Journal of Finance and Accounting www.iiste.org ISSN 2222-1697 (Paper) ISSN 2222-2847 (Online) Vol.11, No.18, 2020 Internal Control Systems and Performance of Life Insurers: Ghanaian Case Ashiagbor, A.A 1 Ayamga, A.T. 2 Adzagbre, C.K. 3 1.Department of Banking and Finance, University of Professional Studies, Accra 2.Department of Accounting, University of Professional Studies, Accra 3.Department of Business Administration, KAAF University College, Accra Abstract Life insurance companies are very crucial in the mobilisation of financial resources in a country, and therefore have a tremendous impact on the economic growth and financial stability of the country. The importance of internal control mechanisms in achieving these goals cannot be overemphasized. Despite the growing trend in internal control systems in financial institutions, there is little knowledge on the internal control practices that exist within life insurance companies in Ghana and how these influence their performances. It is against this background that this study set out to fill this gap. The main objective of this study is to examine the effect of internal control mechanisms on the performance of life insurers in Ghana. The multiple regression analysis was used to establish the statistical relationship between the COSO framework of internal control system and the performance of the Ghanaian life insurers. The findings from this study showed that internal control mechanisms have positive and unique contribution to explaining the performance of life insurance companies in Ghana. The study recommends among others that the life insurance firms need to improve upon the core principles of the various components of the COSO internal control integrated framework.

    International Journal of Business and Social Research Volume 10, Issue 02, 2020: 01-17 Article Received: 17-11-2019 Accepted: 12-12-2019 Available Online: 21-02-2020 ISSN 2164-2540 (Print), ISSN 2164-2559 (Online) DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.18533/ijbsr.v10i2.1266 Estimating the Financial Costs of Funeral Celebrations in Ghana: (A Case Study of Greater Accra, Central and Ashanti Regions) John Kwame Adu Jack1, Emmanuel K. S. Amoah1, Eric Hope1 ABSTRACT Funerals and burial practices are a universal human social experience, and every society has a unique pattern of dealing with the death of its members. In Ghana, it is noticed that Ghanaians revere the dead so much that funerals are at the heart of Ghanaians' social life. This study sought to estimate the cost of funeral celebrations on personal finances and on productivity through man-hour loss. Interviews and questionnaires were the basis for data collection. The results from the sample, using a purposive sampling technique indicated funeral attendees in Ghana often incur costs in the form of expenditure elements including, but not limited to transportation, the buying of funeral cloths and the expenditure at funeral ground. It also showed that families hosting a funeral incur high costs when organizing it. Data interpretation was done using Microsoft excel. It is recommended that funeral celebration days should be reduced to one day, especially Saturdays so that attendees can leave on Friday after work and return on Sunday. And that, families should reduce how much they spend on food and drink by organizing simple but befitting burials.

    International Journal of Multidisciplinary Studies and Innovative Research ISSN: 2737-7180 (Print), ISSN: 2737-7172 (Online) DOI: http://doi.org/10.21681/IJMSIR-6013-50134-2021 TEACHERS' PERCEPTION ON THE FREE SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL POLICY IN GHANA: A CASE STUDY OF BONO EAST REGION Rev. Fr. (Dr.) Augustine Owusu-Addo Catholic University College of Ghana, Fiapre, P.O. Box 363, Sunyani [email protected] Abstract: The current study looked at the perception of in-service teachers of Bono East Region in Ghana on the Free Senior High School Policy in Ghana. The study was carried out in the Bono East region of Ghana. The study employed a survey research design and a population of 190 teachers who had enrolled in the Master of Education programme in Presbyterian University College, Wisconsin International University College, KAAF University College, and Central University College. The study collected demographic data on the gender, age, and marital status. 161 men (82.6%) and 34 women represented 17.4%, teachers within the age bracket of 34 and above were almost three times (74.8%) the size of those who were less than 34 years. Teachers from 24-28 were only 6.0% of the total enrolment. Marital status was another important demographic data collected. One hundred and sixty-five (84.6%) of the respondents were married, whereas 30 (15.4%) were not married. The findings indicate that teachers within the Bono East Region who are enrolled in Master of Education programme in the above listed private universities in Ghana; did not have adequate knowledge of the Free SHS policy before its implementation.
