The analysis was based exclusively in the usage of secondary data. The result indicated that KriKri follows four types of growth strategies, namely: 1) Market penetration, 2) New product development, 3) Diversification, and 4) International Growth. The firm has successfully implemented the aforementioned practices and this is reflected in its overall business performance (Sales, Profits, EBITDA, etc.). In conclusion, the project highlighted the importance of growth for firms and organizations as a key element for increasing their profitability and ensuring their viability. It is also indicative that the firm achieved a substantial growth despite the economic crisis that affected negatively the Greek economy (OECD, 2021) and the appearance of the COVID 19 outbreak.","PeriodicalId":368946,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Social Sciences and English Literature","volume":"32 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128792566","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}

A descriptive survey was used to answer the following research questions; to what extent has the Universal Basic Education been able to cater for the children in Ile-Oluji primary schools?, does the Universal Basic Education Programme provide adequate technology facilities to enhance teaching and learning effectiveness in all the primary schools? Are the pupils exposed to modern technological equipment to improve teaching and learning? Do primary schools possess adequate technological equipment? And lastly, are there any challenges hindering the implementation of UBE programme? The investigation was carried out by randomly selecting forty (40) pupils in five (5) schools and ten (10) teachers in each of the five schools making a total of two hundred and fifty respondents. Questionnaires were designed to aid the investigation. The questionnaire was validated by the researcher’s supervisor. Split-half method was used to test the reliability of the instrument. The findings of the research revealed that there are challenges of technology and adequacy of trained educators in the implementation of UBE programme in primary school level. Suggested solutions will help reduce the challenges of technology and adequacy of trained educators and these challenges will be a thing of the past.","PeriodicalId":368946,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Social Sciences and English Literature","volume":"62 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126421881","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}

Utilizing marital satisfaction measurement sub-scale from the Dyadic Adjustment Scale of Spanier and self-designed sexual satisfaction based on Marital Satisfaction Inventory of Snyder, the results of this study recognized the moderate level of sexual and marital satisfaction of respondents. Independent Sample T-test did not show the significantly statistically difference between male and female upon these two dimensions. Linear regression analysis, using sexual satisfaction as the dependent variable recognizes a significant portion of the variation in marital satisfaction. However, it’s the same portion of the variation when using marital satisfaction as the dependent variable. Linear multiple regression also recorded the influence of the expectation on sex life of the intellectuals regarding their sexual satisfaction. Nonetheless, regarding the interrelation of the marital satisfaction, the dominance of the level of expectation to sexual satisfaction is insignificant. Some limitations of this study are also well pointed out from actual collected results.","PeriodicalId":368946,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Social Sciences and English Literature","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125452547","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}
