Electronic leadership is basically becoming a norm in contemporary organizations. Despite the effectiveness and efficiency attached to e-leadership, its extent of adoption seems to be at the infancy stage in most of Kenyan Organizations. The purpose of this paper was to assess the impact of e-leadership on Service delivery in Kenya’s Public Universities. The objectives of the study were: to establish the level of adoption of e-leadership in Kenya’s Public Universities, to establish the impact of e-leadership on communication in the public universities and to establish effects of e-leadership on service delivery in Kenya’s Public Universities. The study adopted a Meta-analysis of empirical literature on the topic. The study was underpinned by Technology Acceptance Model by Davis (1989). The study established variability in the level of embracement of e-leadership amongst the universities, that there was a strong positive relationship between e-leadership and service delivery, that e-leadership enhances faster and effective communication. The study findings have implications on the corporations’ need to embrace e-leadership for their effectiveness.

Informational Communication and Technology (ICT) falls under the learner-centered strategy and is likely to improve learner interest and achievement. This is in tandem with the Kenyan government’s ICT policy of 2007. The study aimed to assess the extent of ICT integration into geography instruction in Kenya's public secondary schools. The study aimed to determine the institutional factors that influence the integration of ICT into geography teaching, the factors of geography teachers that influence the integration of ICT into geography teaching and learning, and the factors of students that influence the integration of ICT into geography teaching and learning in public secondary schools in Migori County, Kenya. Davis (1989) anchored the study on the technology acceptance model. The study also used a meta-analysis of empirical literature, guided by Ferrer (1998). The study found that institutional, teacher, and student factors impacted the integration of ICT into teaching and learning geography in public secondary schools in Migori County, Kenya. These findings have implications for schools' integration of ICT policy into geography instruction.

Insecurity is a concern in the North Eastern (N.E.) and North Rift (N.R.) parts of Kenya. The study aimed to assess the effects of insecurity on educational delivery in public schools in these regions. The objectives were to establish the causes and nature of insecurity, the effects of insecurity on attendance, and the way forward to insecurity on educational delivery in these regions. The study utilized a meta-analytic approach, according to Ferrer (1998). Results indicate that livestock rustling and terrorist attacks from Al-Shabaab are major causes of insecurity. The recent mass exodus of teachers from the Northeast region has challenged education delivery. Insecurity has led to low student attendance and school closures. The findings have implications for national governments, such as the Ministry of Interior and county governments, who must devise sustainable and robust security logistics to foster peaceful coexistence. This would not only enhance the delivery of education effectively but also streamline other transactions that are common in every society.

E-learning as a crucial aspect of ICT is a new model of education dispensation in the Higher Educational Institutions (HEIs) across the world. However, this technologically enhanced educational model is still at the infancy stage in the developing countries, Kenya not exceptional. The purpose of the study was to assess the institutional and students’ factors influencing adoption of e-learning in Higher institutions of Learning in Kenya. The specific objectives were: to establish the impact of institutional e-learning policy (IEP) on its adoption in HEIs in Kenya, to establish the impact of lecturers’ perceived ease of use (PEU) of e-learning on its adoption in HEIs and to establish effect of students’ perceived usefulness (PU) of e-learning on its adoption in HEIs. The study was underpinned by Technology Acceptance Model. This study reviewed 69 relevant empirical literatures whose meta- analysis was guided. The study established that lecturers’ perceived ease of use of e-learning affects its adoption, that institutional e-learning policy has significant relationship with e-learning adoption and that students’ e-learning perceived usefulness has a great effect on its adoption in the university. The study findings have implications on close scrutiny of universities’ e-learning policies toward its implementation; on provision of e-pedagogical training to lecturers toward e-learning capacity building; implications on universities’ ICT Departments’ preparation of students for e-learning educational model. In a nutshell the study finding would inform the best organizational practices towards e-learning effectiveness.

Educational innovation is inevitable in every society. A shift from 8:4:4 to 2:6:3:3:3 (CBC) system of education is ongoing and the new curriculum is taking a centre stage. Situational analysis is a prerequisite for an effective implementation of a new curriculum. However, gaps have been exhibited that are impediments to its effective implementation. The Purpose of this paper was to assess the impact of situational analysis on implementation of CBC. The objectives were to establish the extent: to which curriculum needs assessment were done towards CBC, to which necessary interventions have been taken to address the findings of the situational analysis and to find out the effects of curriculum needs assessment on implementation of CBC. This study reviewed relevant empirical literatures whose meta- analysis was guided by the work of Ferrer (1998). The study established that situational analysis was done towards dispensation of the CBC curriculum but some gaps remained that needed to be addressed before its roll out and continuous support where necessary. This study would necessarily illuminate on policy issues concerning curriculum theory and practice in Kenya.

Human insecurity of the Arid and Semi- Arid (ASALS) Northern Kenya is indeed a challenge towards realization of equal spatial-geographical development. Even though devolved systems of Government is in place towards near achievement of equal development through being disbursed for Equalization Funds on top financial yearly disbursement of funds to the counties in accordance to the constitution 2010 provisions on devolution, the region remains largely underdeveloped as compared to other regions in Kenya. Insecurity in this region are aggravated by practices such as cattle rustling in which sophisticated weapons like AK47 and M16 rifles are used by rustlers and terrorists more specifically Al-Shabaab especially in Mandera, Wajir, Garrisa and Lamu Counties. In addition, the Al-Shabaab use IED, hand propelled granades, landmines, matchettes amongst other lethal weapons. The scenario is that Civil servants more specifically non-locals in various sectors e.g. education, health, agriculture, security perceive the regions as being very insecure. The purpose of the study is to determine effects of insecurity on socio-economic development. Specific objectives were to establish: effects of insecurity on trade in Northern Kenya; to establish effects of insecurity on crop and livestock farming and to establish effects of insecurity education on health services. The study was underpinned by peaceful co-existence theory. The study established that there is a strong relationship between (in)security and socioeconomic development, that the insecurity in Northern Kenya has negatively affected trade, health services and livestock and livestock framing. Many civil servants flee the area because of the hostility that characterize the region. The findings have implications for security agencies drawn from the Ministry of Interior and Defense and County security apparatus to work closely with the local communities towards attainment of sustainable peace.

The swelling enrollment of students in the university programs and the nearly frozen teaching staff hiring in the universities lead to a gap in regular lecturers consequently calling for the faculties to outsource for part-time lecturers (PTLs). However, the plan for their remuneration remains elusive. The purpose of the study was to establish the perceptions towards impact of corporations’ pay plans for PTLs toward their service delivery. Specific objectives were to determine: whether there are any pay plans for PTLs by the public universities; nature of pay plans for PTLs and to establish level of satisfaction of PTLs with the universities’ pay plan and to establish level of satisfaction of with the universities’ pay plan. The study used critical literature review supported by Ferrer (1998). A theory of Social Justice underpinned the study. The study established that: there were letters of appointment without exact time of payment. That the question when will the payment be effected silently rested on availability of funds. That many a times delayed payments after marking and submitting scripts make the lecturers frustrated and that there was high level of dissatisfaction amongst PTLs with uncertainty of their pay by the universities, consequently affecting their teaching and research. The findings have implications on University management to properly plan for PTLs and quickly remunerate the. No study of that nature has been done in Kenya hence bridging knowledge gap and that it could help solve the problem of elusive remuneration of PTLs in Kenya.
