AN OVERLOOKED CAUSE OF POOR ACADEMIC PERFORMANCE IN GHANA: THE NEED FOR EFFECTIVE PERSONAL STUDY TIME 🤔 As an educator, I am constantly seeking creative and effective ways to help my students excel academically. This drive has led me to explore the factors contributing to poor academic performance. Among the identified factors, I have observed that the most prominent issue within the Ghanaian context is the lack of effective personal study time for students. However, this issue remains under-researched. Much attention has been directed toward challenges such as inadequate professional teachers, insufficient teaching and learning resources, and limited instructional time. Yet, I have noticed that even in the presence of these resources, students' academic performance often remains subpar. This is primarily because they lack the opportunity for effective and productive personal study time to review classroom lessons, engage in further reading, and conduct independent research. I believe it is time for educators, stakeholders, policymakers, and curriculum developers to reevaluate the structure of teacher-student contact hours. By reducing these contact hours and prioritizing intensive personal study time for students, we can empower them to take greater ownership of their learning and improve academic outcomes.

Ethical Dilemmas in Content Creation🦋A Real Struggle As content creators, we all face tough choices that challenge our values. I recently had a friend ask me to feature in his music video. At first, it seemed like an exciting opportunity. But then I realized—the theme of the video didn’t align with what I believe in. It was a tough call, but I knew I had to stay true to myself. I politely declined, and while it was uncomfortable, my friend ended up respecting my decision. 🔑 So, how do I handle these moments? Know Your Values: You can’t go wrong when you’re clear about what you stand for. Think Long-Term: Short-term gains aren’t worth it if they compromise your brand or your integrity. Be Transparent: Honesty is key, even if it’s hard. Trust Your Instincts: Your values will always lead you in the right direction. In the end, being authentic is what builds lasting trust with your audience. 💯 What ethical dilemmas have you faced as a creator?

The golden rays of the January morning sun pierced through the window as Kehinde Ayoade adjusted his tie, ready for his first day back as the music teacher at Living Treasure Model School. The school compound buzzed with life—students reconnecting with friends, parents dropping off their children, and teachers exchanging warm greetings. Kehinde’s heart swelled with anticipation as the principal’s welcoming address highlighted the school’s dedication to creativity, with a special nod to the music department's impact. This term promised to be yet another opportunity to inspire young minds through the power of music. Entering the music room for his first class, Kehinde was greeted by eager students and the polished scent of a freshly cleaned space. On the board, he had written, “Music is the universal language of mankind,” setting the tone for the term. He started with an icebreaker, asking students to share their favorite songs and instruments, sparking excitement and curiosity. Kehinde outlined the term’s goals: the juniors would learn basic theory and recorder tunes, while seniors would explore harmony and ensemble work. By the time he demonstrated a simple melody on the piano, the students were captivated, ready to embark on their musical journey. As the day progressed, Kehinde moved between classes, encouraging students to explore their potential. Some struggled with basic notes, while others surprised him with hidden talents on the keyboard. Patiently guiding each one, he celebrated their small victories, knowing they were stepping stones to greater achievements. By the end of the day, Kehinde felt a deep sense of fulfillment. Walking out of the school gates, he hummed a tune, already envisioning the symphony of growth and discovery that awaited in the term ahead. [TaCheal] [philarpy] [Stephanie]
