Abstract: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of organisational culture on employee performance at Oshana Regional Council (ORC), Namibia. Mixed research methods were used to collect, analyse and interpret data from respondents and key informants. Participants of the study consisted of 103 employees of Oshana Regional Council. Questionnaires and face to face interviews were used to collect quantitative and qualitative data respectively. The Statistical Program for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 25 was used to compute the quantitative data while descriptive and inferential statistics were applied to better understand its meaning. To examine the association between employee performance and organisational culture at Oshana RC, methodological triangulation was utilized to strengthen the credibility and validity of the findings. The study found that a Hierarchical Culture is the dominant culture at Oshana Regional Council. It was the finding of this study that the Hierarchical Culture is relatively weak and ineffective in driving employee performance. It was also established that employee performance is positively influenced by organisational culture. The study concluded that a strong organisational culture can provide a number of benefits including organisational unity of purpose, behaviour control and it improves employee commitment. The study recommended that ORC managers should use leadership styles that are most suited to their situation in order to achieve high productivity and should periodically conduct cultural audits.

Abstract: This qualitative study described the story of struggles in oral communication of the language learners of Ramon Magsaysay Memorial Colleges Integrated School. The study used a self-structured interview guide to gather data from six purposively chosen participants. As the results of this study implied, the participants were struggling because of their emotional adversities, fluency disorders, and inferiority. Because of these struggles, the participants built negative outlooks and even tend to have undesirable outcomes in their oral activities. However, there were also some of them who thought positively amidst challenges. Hence, they took those struggles as an opportunity to do better in their next performances.

Abstract: Barrick Lumwana Mine is a bulk, open pit, copper mining operation with huge operating and capital sustaining costs. Requiring huge operating capital and cost by nature, which must be prepared and ready before any production year begins, financial planning and budgeting for the mine gets complex due to constantly changing economies and markets which becomes challenging, hence must be reviewed regularly. Understanding the budgeting methods that exist gives a better approach in the selection of which method best suits the mine for effective financial planning through budgeting. It is for this reason that the budgeting method and process at Barrick Lumwana Mine needs to be regularly reviewed. This study set out to analyse the budgeting method used at the mine and determine its suitability in relation to the budget cost variances that had been observed in the recent past, hence determine a suitable budgeting method to be used for better financial planning and allocation of resources. This study is of benefit to Barrick Lumwana Mine and any other mining company that shares a similar nature in operations in understanding the budgeting methods that exist and their application in the real world of mining.

Abstract: In the minority schools of Thrace - and especially in those where Pomak students attend - the problem of teaching the Greek language in relation to the mother tongue presents the peculiarity that Pomak students are taught in the two official languages of the Muslim minority, Turkish and Greek.

As far as Greek language, is concerned to examine the contribution of the textbook to its learning in this environment. Of particular interest is the Greek language textbook for the 6th grade of minority schools, especially with Pomak-speaking students.

It is logical to ask the question -through the students and teachers’ answers- to what extent this school textbook, of the Greek language for the 6th grade (Greek program for minority schools) and especially in the schools attended by Pomak students, helped in the successful learning of the Greek language.

The purpose of this paper, therefore, is to find out the students and teachers’ views about the textbook of the Greek Language (6th Classroom of Minority Schools) in the Minority schools and especially in the Pomaks of Western Thrace.

The research was conducted using questionnaires on 177 students and 125 teachers, who were selected throwgh sampling.

The results show that the students and teachers’ views seem to go hand in hand, leaning both groups towards a neutral to an overall negative view of the textbooks.

Keywords: textbook, Greek language, Pomak-speaking students, W. Thrace, minority schools.

Abstract: Ideally, education has a default role of developing skilled human resource necessary for development of civilizations, going by the human capital theory. Accordingly, an analytical study (philosophical analysis), complemented by a phenomenological one, were conducted in a research that sought to establish the ingredients of an education that could guarantee development of a skilled human resource in Kenya. This followed a reported deficit in the latter. The said methods were therefore employed to examine the manner in which education was conceived and practiced in Kenya, and the extent to which the former had succeeded in fulfilling its role of developing a skilled human resource. Instructively, goals of education are evaluated against observed outcomes. Accordingly, a deficiency would certainly indicate a problem, necessitating an inquiry such as this. Even so, today’s world is such that skilling per se is not sufficient. This follows the reality wherein work environments and requirements are dynamic, rendering many individuals redundant. Consequently, a kind of education that will accommodate the fluidity of today’s careers and occupations is needed. Hence, arising from the study, the current paper vouches for an essentialist education for the sole reason that it creates room for further training and retooling, ostensibly in the face of redundancy and obsoleteness that saddle most careers today. Further, this kind of education prepares individuals for trainee programs and on-job apprenticeships that are becoming popular with most employers, especially the emerging situation that is characterized by increasing mismatch between existent education and the needs of industry. The government therefore ought to be clear on its educational philosophy, and subsequently, move to align education policies with fiscal plans to guarantee proper implementation of the curriculum, hence, development of a skilled human resource.

Abstract: This study was conducted to ascertain how improving the Tanzania-Zambia railway line may encourage efficient freight transportation and hence positively impact Zambia's economic development. A focus on the quantity of cargo moved throughout a five-year period was offered in order to comprehend the demands for railroad transportation, lessen the issues rail transportation faces, and increase rail freight transportation. Secondary and primary data were used in conjunction with the descriptive data analysis technique to estimate the volume of freight transported by the central railway. Only 45% of the entire freight was transported, according to the study's findings, which shows that there is a big demand for cargo transit on the Tanzania-Zambia railway line. It is challenging to find train engines that are technologically suitable, and the majority of railway bridges have limited capacity for carrying huge products. Additionally, it was shown that a number of factors affect train traffic. The TAZARA and Central Railway line had been able to transport 1.066 million tons of cargo over the preceding five years despite these operating challenges (2010–2014). According to the findings, it is suggested that Tanzania Zambia Railway create a plan to upgrade existing engines and purchase new ones in order to alleviate the problem by promoting freight movement. Engineers should routinely participate in training on new technologies in order to maintain standards. Tanzania Zambia Railway must also develop a strategy outlining how to deal with competition from road vehicles, including efficient marketing of its freight transport services and thorough track and bridge repairs.

Abstract: The aim of this study was to assess the role of entrepreneurship training in the growth of Small and Medium Enterprises in Zambia. The study sought answer to the following three questions: i) Are SMEs aware of trainings conducted in the area?  ii) What types of training are being employed in Chongwe Based SMEs? iii) What is the influence of training programs on business growth of SMES in Chongwe district?

The study used a quantitative research design and purposive sampling technique was used to recruit n = 100 and SMEs and Key informant (KI).

Males dominated the gender distribution in the sample, with n = 84 (84.0%) outnumbering females n = 16 (16.0 %). The ages of individuals who were (25 to 34) and (35 to 44) n = 46 were very evenly distributed (46.0 %). Because most respondents lack a strong academic background, they do not conduct their business professionally. More than half of those polled, n = 80 (88.9%), were ignorant of any entrepreneurial training programs in the area, compared to n = 11 (11.0%) who were. A considerable proportion of SMEs n = 80 (88.9%) were unaware of this form of training, whereas only n = 10 (11.1%) were aware. The study discovered that nearly all the KI and SMEs in the sample n = 97 (97.0%) believed that entrepreneurship training programs influenced SMEs' business a little larger and a lot larger, while a small percentage believed there was no difference n = 2 (2.0%) and a small percentage believed it contributed a little smaller n = 1 (1.0%).

To successfully reach out to all SMEs in the town and distant areas, awareness initiatives and well-established communication methods are required.

Abstract: This study investigated the mediating influence of leader accountability on the relationship between transcendental leadership of school heads and teacher self-efficacy in public secondary schools in two municipalities of Davao Oriental. (Failure of teachers to maintain and improve their own performance in the classroom can have a significant impact on the students' learning. The ineffectiveness of teachers has an influence on the entire educational system. Teachers that are inept will have a detrimental influence on student learning results. Self-efficacy relates to one's belief in one's own skills and inefficiencies, which may lead to a number of psychological issues such as low confidence and low self-esteem). A stratified random sample approach was adopted, with 300 teachers serving as respondents. The findings of a non-experimental quantitative mediation study using medgraph, a validated questionnaire, mean, regression procedures, and Pearson r revealed substantial correlations between school leaders' transcendental leadership, teacher self-efficacy, and leader accountability. The mediating influence of leader accountability on the relationship between school leaders' transcendental leadership and teacher self-efficacy was partial. As a result, one of the ways that transcendental leadership of school heads may influence teacher self-efficacy is through leader accountability. However, this does not fully explain the relationship between the two variables.
