Abstract

The main aim of this study was to determine the level of web technology skills acquired by computer science students in polytechnics in Akwa Ibom State-Nigeria. The study adopted a descriptive survey research method. Two research questions were raised and two research hypotheses were formulated and tested at a 0.05 significant level. Six polytechnics are made up of two public and four private polytechnics. The sample sizes consist of 343 Computer Science Students for public and private polytechnics 157 and 186 respondents’ respectively. Based on the data analyzed, the finding revealed the result of mean and standard deviation on the level of acquisition of content design skills by public and private polytechnic computer science students. However, the extent of acquisition in public Polytechnics shows six very high levels (HL) and six high levels (HL) respectively, while the results for private Polytechnics show six high levels (HL) and six low levels (LL). This implies that public Polytechnic is doing better than private Polytechnics in the acquisition of content design skills in Akwa Ibom State. It was also revealed that the result of mean and standard deviation on the level of acquisition of graphic animation skills by public and private polytechnic computer science students. However, the extent of acquisition in public Polytechnics shows one very high level (VHL) and seven high level (HL) respectively, while the results for private Polytechnics show three high-level t (HL) and five low level (LL).

Abstract

The Internet of Things (IoT) represents a paradigm shift in the way we interact with technology and the world around us. As the number of IoT devices continues to proliferate across various domains, ranging from smart homes to industrial settings, the vulnerabilities associated with this interconnected ecosystem become increasingly pronounced. This research aims to dissect the multifaceted challenges that arise in securing the vast network of interconnected devices, recognizing that the traditional approaches to cybersecurity may not suffice in this evolving environment. The objectives of the study are to comprehensively analyze these constraints, ranging from insecure IoT device configurations to potential data breaches and privacy concerns. The method adapted for this study is the V Model is a software development and testing methodology that emphasizes a structured approach to the development process. When applied to Cybersecurity and the Internet of Things (IoT) the V Model can be effectively utilized to address the unique complexities associated with securing interconnected devices. The adoption of a “security-by-design” philosophy emerges as a crucial aspect of mitigating IoT-related risks. Incorporating security measures from the inception of device development helps establish a robust foundation. The research anticipates contributing valuable insights to the ongoing discourse on cybersecurity, offering actionable recommendations for stakeholders navigating the intricate landscape of IoT security.

Abstract

The study was conducted to examine the analysis of Covid-19 pandemic and migration to distance learning and digital education in public higher institution in Abia State. Covid-19 pandemic era is simply a period everything and sectors of the economy was paralyzed and all activities were halted. It implies that teaching activities and learning activities in traditional classrooms were affected. The aimed of this study was to determine the extent to which public higher institutions in Abia to migrate to digital education in the covid-19 pandemic era. This objectives was to examine how equal education opportunities and curriculum implementation during the Covid-19 pandemic era in public tertiary institutions in Abia State. Two research questions were raised and answered for the study. Two research hypotheses were formulated and tested at .05 level of significance. Descriptive survey research design was adopted while structured questionnaire were used for data collection. The population of the study consisted of all the public tertiary institutions in Abia State while the sample random sampling technique was in the study. The Statistical for Social Science (SPSS) was used as the statistics for data analysis which help in realizing the objectives of the study. From the findings of the study, both tertiary institution and Government as well as the lecturers are instrument for improving migration to digital education in higher institutions in Abia State.
