Three polytechnics offering architectural technology programmes were purposively selected for the study. The research method involved descriptive and thematic analysis of the curriculum contents and methods of teaching used in the schools, as well as responses from the primary data obtained using structured interviews administered to the tutorial staff of the selected polytechnics, and the HND graduates from December 2013 to October 2015 working in architectural firms or freelancing. Secondary data used were obtained from academic curriculum for architectural technology programmes of the selected polytechnics, refereed journals, some reports available from reliable internet sources and books. Chi square was used to test the significance of the teaching methods and courses taught on the effective performance of the graduates in professional practice. The findings of this study revealed that the core courses have prepared the graduates to the limited challenges of designing and drafting. The paper recommends that a reassessment of the value system is inevitable if the programme in Nigeria must remain relevant in the face of global trends in architectural technology and the emerging roles of the architectural technologist. The paper concludes that tackling the issues of funding for the programme in the polytechnics and increased productivity incentives for the architectural technologists will abate the major challenges of the programme.","PeriodicalId":306661,"journal":{"name":"International Journal for Infonomics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125170020","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Awareness and attitude of people in the community appear to be crucial. The problem of waste management has arisen recently in developing countries where there is little history of the implementation of formal and informal community environmental education awareness program. Community participation significantly reduces the cost of waste collection. Information communication technology (ICT) significantly assists the acquisition and amalgamation of knowledge, offering developing countries unprecedented opportunities to enhance educational systems. To gauge the effectiveness of raising awareness regarding domestic solid waste management (SWM) within the society using computer aided tools (CAL), the present research was carried out. The study was conducted to find knowledge of college students with respect to Solid waste management by using developed communication methods. Sample study was conducted with 50 students. Preliminary data was collected by using questionnaire, before and after employing CAL tool and analyzed by using‘t test’. Development of effective knowledge regarding SWM using multimedia package is guiding factor in this project. The findings suggest that CAL tool developed by investigator were effective in raising knowledge of students regarding SWM.","PeriodicalId":306661,"journal":{"name":"International Journal for Infonomics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121013246","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Internationally, there is a trend for these Early Years programs to have less of a subjectspecific orientation (e.g., literacy, numeracy, or science) and instead become more oriented toward the development of the whole child. This change in program focus includes an increased emphasis on play as well as more attention focused on metacognition encouraging even young children to think about their thinking. In Ontario, Canada, two Early Years classes were at the point of implementing a new mandated Early Years curriculum policy while at the same time considering the deliberate introduction of technology into the Early Years classes. The Early Years educators involved engaged in an action research project involving two classes of early years’ students, the teachers and ECE assistants. One of the authors participated as one of the two Early Years teachers and as a teacherresearchers. She systematically recorded and analyzed their program planning, assessment, and student interactions with the technology. The findings from this study provide new insight into the barriers faced with technology implementation classrooms as well as recommendations for future Early Years teachers who want to introduce more child-centered, technology-focused programs in Early Years classrooms.","PeriodicalId":306661,"journal":{"name":"International Journal for Infonomics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129878922","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Students who attend these programs are often expected to master artistic skills within one or two years without any previous experience or knowledge and in this process, they depend heavily on digital technology. A key area of concern focuses on novice digital artists' dependence on technology and the tendency for this dependence to detract from their ability to express artistically, think critically and analytically, and transfer their acquired skills into life/work settings. Maybe one way to address these concerns would be to review the teaching/learning processes, potentially postpone the focus on technology and instead offer an education where learners have the opportunity to develop toward their desired goals while building on their strengths and previously acquired knowledge. The purpose of this paper is to explore how digital media arts students can be supported in their artistic journeys in ways that meet their needs and graduation expectations.","PeriodicalId":306661,"journal":{"name":"International Journal for Infonomics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123979565","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
