Abstract

The research focuses on the record-keeping practices of principals in public secondary schools in Ilorin metropolis, Kwara State, Nigeria. Two research questions and one research hypothesis were raised to guide the study. A descriptive survey research design was employed, allowing for self-reporting of information without manipulating variables. The sample included 121 principals and 155 vice principals from four Local Government Areas. The research instrument was a structured questionnaire, "Principals' Records Keeping Practices and School Effectiveness Questionnaire (PRMPSEQ)," developed from a literature review. The data was analysed using both descriptive and inferential statistics. The study found a positive correlation between these two aspects, indicating that effective records management is crucial for achieving high levels of school effectiveness. The study found a moderate level of effectiveness in principals' records-keeping practices, with areas for improvement identified in record retrieval, disposal, use and archiving. The Pearson Product Moment Correlation analysis reveals a significant positive correlation between principals' record-keeping practices and school effectiveness in public secondary schools in Ilorin metropolis, Kwara State, Nigeria. Overall, the findings provide valuable information for policymakers and school administrators in Ilorin metropolis, suggesting that enhancing records management practices could be a strategic approach towards improving school effectiveness and ultimately, the quality of education for students. The findings suggest that schools should prioritise continuous improvement in their records management systems, focusing on enhancing retrieval, disposal, utilisation, and archiving practices. Recommendations include enhancing records management training, implementing standardised systems, investing in technology and conducting regular audits.

Abstract

The success of a nation relies heavily on the quality of teachers and their efforts. To improve educational standards, efforts should focus on teachers' effectiveness. However, inadequate facilities and lack of training hinder teachers' effectiveness in public senior secondary schools. This study aims to examine the predominant quality assurance practices, determine teachers' effectiveness, and investigate the relationship between these practices and teachers' effectiveness in Kwara State public schools. The study used a descriptive survey design to survey 7700 teachers in Kwara State's public senior secondary schools. The Krejcie and Morgan table was used to select 367 respondents. Data was collected using the Quality Assurance Practice Questionnaire (QAPQ) and Teachers' Effectiveness Questionnaire (TEQ), with reliability coefficients of 0.74 and 0.71 using the Cronbach Alpa method. The study found that evaluation was the most commonly used quality assurance practice in public senior secondary schools in Kwara State (3.16%). Teachers' effectiveness was high (3.05%), and there was a significant relationship between quality assurance practices and teachers' effectiveness (F=0.474; p< 0.05). The study concluded that teachers' effectiveness is largely dependent on the full usage of quality assurance practices such as capacity building, supervision, physical facilities, and accreditation. The sustainability of these practices will increase teachers' effectiveness. It was recommended that the level of quality assurance practices should be above moderate, with regular capacity building, supervision, physical facilities and accreditation.

Abstract

The study investigates the relationship between corporate social responsibility strategies and university goal achievement in Kwara State, Nigeria public universities. The research used a correlational design and a multi-stage sampling technique to select 593 respondents, including 465 academic staff and 128 management staff. The questionnaires, Corporate Social Responsibility Strategies Questionnaire and University Goal Achievement Questionnaire were used for data collection. The findings revealed that universities moderately implemented direct corporate philanthropy strategies for CSR, with a low degree of strategic relationship strategy and limited multi-stakeholder strategy adoption. The objective achievement was moderately high. The study suggests that corporate organisations providing CSR to Kwara State's public universities should strengthen their CSR strategies, including direct corporate philanthropy, strategic partnerships, and multi-stakeholder initiatives, to boost university goal achievement. The study also suggests businesses should enhance their application and embrace research ideas when running CSR initiatives at universities.

Abstract

Background: Universities rely heavily on the competence of their lecturers to achieve excellence in teaching, research, and community service. In the context of growing digital transformation, institutions face the challenge of ensuring that lecturers possess adequate technological, pedagogical, and professional competencies to drive institutional effectiveness and maintain academic quality. Aim: This study aimed to investigate the relationship between lecturers’ competence levels and the achievement of university goals in Kwara State, Nigeria. Specifically, it sought to determine the levels of lecturers’ competencies, assess the extent to which universities achieve their institutional goals, and examine how each competence dimension contributes to overall goal attainment. Method: A descriptive correlational survey design was adopted for the study. The sample consisted of 333 lecturers selected from three universities using proportionate stratified random sampling. Data were collected through a validated instrument titled Lecturers’ Competence Levels and Goal Achievement Questionnaire (LCLGAQ). The data were analysed using mean and standard deviation to describe competence levels and goal achievement, while Pearson’s Product-Moment Correlation was used to test relationships among variables at a 0.05 significance level. Results and Discussion: Findings revealed that lecturers exhibited high levels of technological and professional competence, but moderate levels of pedagogical competence. University goals related to teaching and research were highly achieved, whereas community service goals showed moderate achievement. Statistical analysis indicated significant positive relationships between all competence dimensions and university goal achievement, with technological competence emerging as the strongest predictor. These findings underscore the critical role of lecturers’ competencies in enhancing institutional performance and achieving academic excellence. Conclusion: The study concludes that technological, pedagogical, and professional competences collectively determine the effectiveness of universities in accomplishing their teaching, research, and community service mandates. Strengthening lecturers’ competencies across these dimensions will enhance institutional capacity to meet core educational objectives and sustain competitive performance in higher education.
