Philosophically the study had a subjective ontology; and therefore, a subjective epistemological stance leading to interpretivism as its core theoretical position. To inquire into the perception and role of CSR in SME’s, the study utilized Yin’s case study model thus collecting data through qualitative semi-structured interviews and observations. Further, the study used Miles and Huberman (1994) approach of thematic modelling for the analysis of the data. The findings reveal that SMEs are somehow practising CSR in an informal manner. Surprisingly, CSR at strategic Level is missing. CSR practices towards employees are missing except health and safety measures. Most of the firms contribute in an irregular manner to the local community - training the locals, hiring them as internees, giving charity and donations, and purchasing of local supplies when available and feasible. While, except for one firm, the production or manufacturing firms have no environmental implications. The firms are ethical in dealing with customers and suppliers, they offer customers a quality product which is the reason behind their performance in terms of sales or reputation. The only ethical factor of CSR has a role in SMEs performance.","PeriodicalId":32665,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Experiential Learning Case Studies","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47795840","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}

Social media has rapidly risen in popularity as a new advertising platform that allows users to connect with one another and engage with brands. This research has attempted to explore the attitude of people over the advertisements in what formats most people prefer to like, comment or share. We focus top trended social media sites Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn to demonstrate the consumer engagement on advertisements placed on these sites. This research has identified the factors which influence the users to keep an eye out on advertisements that make them want to continue watch-ing it as they spend their daily time on these social media websites and apps. To determine what makes Ads and online marketing campaigns successful we used variables such as Vividness, Content of Posts, Position of Posts, Scheduling and Call to Action. It was conducted on 300 respondents. We used the questionnaire to collect the data and used a semantic differential scale. We questioned about the ads to respondents which were based on our variables. Results showed that our research is decisive but the variable call to action has an insignificant effect and other variables such as vividness, the position of post, the content of the post, schedule have a significant relation with customer engagement.","PeriodicalId":32665,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Experiential Learning Case Studies","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49504878","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}

Furthermore, societal aspirations can also be stated as the leading cause of gender disparity. This study aimed to focus on addressing the area of gender disparity in primary school education in the country. Employing an in-depth analysis method, semi-structured interviews were conducted from the parents living in Landhi Town, having two or more male and female children aged between five and ten years. Several themes and sub-themes, supposed to be the leading factors for gender disparity in the country, emerged in the result of data analysis gathered via the interviews. The most significant identified factors include poverty, school proximity, security issues, social issues and perception of parents regarding the importance of girls’ education. Therefore, policy makers and educationists are recommended to pay attention to parental awareness programs and the social issues associated with gender disparity in primary education.","PeriodicalId":32665,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Experiential Learning Case Studies","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47525548","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}

Sometimes it’s hard to do this job because of the large size of team members, big project size or geographically separated teams. Through Continuous integration this whole process becomes lot easier because all the validations and verifications will be done by an automated job. This job will check for the changes in the project code and whenever a change happens it will run the build process automatically, which detects errors and problems with the code and also notifies the concerned team member who is responsible for this error.
