TEduChain: a blockchain-based platform for crowdfunding tertiary education

Abstract Blockchain is an emerging technology framework for creating and storing transaction in distributed ledgers with a high degree of security and reliability. In this paper, we present a blockchain-based platform to create and store contracts in between students and their higher education sponsors facilitated by intermediary brokers denoted as fundraisers. The sponsorship might be in any form, such as scholarship, donation, or loan. The fund will be arranged and managed by a group of competitive fundraisers who will hold the distributed ledgers and act as the miners in the blockchain network.

Contribution of Nonpayment of School Levies by Parents on Staff Performance in Public Secondary Schools in Baringo County

The study sought to establish contributions of nonpayment of school levies by parents on staff performance, since there has been a growing concern on the deteriorating services rendered in public secondary schools in Kenya. While carrying out the study, the researcher adopted a descriptive survey design. The researcher targeted 31 public secondary schools in Baringo County. A sample size of 30% was sampled out from the 31 public secondary schools using stratified random sampling technique to get 9 public secondary schools. A sample size of 30% of 300 teachers and 186 Board of Management members (BOM) was obtained from the sampled public secondary schools. The sample size consisted of 90 teachers and 55 BOM members. Purposive sampling technique was used to select BOM members while stratified random sampling technique was used to select the teachers. Questionnaires were used as data collection instruments. The data collected was analyzed using descriptive statistics with the help of SPSS (Statistical Package for the Social Sciences version 20 for windows) program. Findings from this research provided comprehensive recommendations to the interviewed schools, the Ministry of Education and other sponsors of education in secondary schools on the importance and benefits of proper planning and formulation of effective and excellent management policies and practices. Further studies were instituted through workshops and seminars. Based on the findings, it can be concluded that; non-payment of school levies is a critical threat to schools as far as staff performance is concerned. The study recommended that, School management should ensure that its employees get regular workshops and seminars to equip and motivate them for excellent performance to be attained; School managers should come up with strategies that will allow for timely payment of school levies. Parents should be informed of the importance of paying school levies. Since service delivery is pegged against payment of school levies, parents should be called to attend regular school meetings to discuss the way forward on school levies; All the stakeholders that contribute to quality of service delivered should be consulted when it comes to matters pertaining to non-payment of school levies.

To stay ahead of competition, a significant factor has now become of significance; student loyalty towards higher learning institutions. Hence, scholarship recipients have the expectation to demonstrate a certain degree of loyalty towards their education sponsor. In addition, they play an important role as opinion leaders and walking advertisement for these institutions. However, the challenge that is plaguing scholarship programmes is the probability of the recipients being loyal due to monetary incentives rather than the supremacy of the institution. In view of this, focus group interviews were conducted to explore respondents’ perspectives of their inclination towards the institution. This paper seeks to analyze loyalty themes that might surface as relevant to the development of loyalty among scholarship recipients. It centres on pertinent factors that emerge as important drivers of loyalty which will be of value to institutions in comprehending their students’ loyalty intensity. Key words: Students’ loyalty, scholarship recipients, higher learning institutions.

A Social Justice Model for Clinical Social Work Practice

Feminists have long challenged social workers to address issues of equity and justice in clinical practice. This article presents a case study of a family services program, the Institute for Family Services (IFS), whose intention is to do just that. At IFS, power issues are central to all therapeutic conversations and to the structure of the program. Findings from interviews with staff members and clients and observation of the program illustrate how the program sets out to reveal and influence issues of power, privilege, and oppression. Fundamental and unique to this model are the use of same-gender therapy groups, social education, and community sponsors.
