“…Major markers of quality doctoral programs and supervisions might include the rates of completions versus attrition per cohort [4], reported quality of mentorship, support and supervision [5][6], quality of student-advisor relationship [7], duration of program completion, reported candidates/students satisfaction [8] quality of research output and publications [9], potential to contribute to the knowledge economy and overall measurable impact of doctoral education on the various walks of life as measurable in terms of innovations, solutions, quality of life and wellbeing. Unfortunately, most of these markers are generally rated between low and poor in many instances in Africa.…”

Aim/Purpose: This article- a perspective, is an attempt to critically review the African scenario with respect to doctoral supervision for Basic Medical Sciences and proffer potential solutions in the form of a supervisory model. Background: There is a need to develop supervisory models for emerging PhDs in Basic Medical Sciences [BMS] in Africa. There has been continuous evolutions and rapid advancements as further compounded by continuous sophistication in research tools, methods, and technologies. These have resulted in newer fields emerging from the traditional fields. A major fallout of this is a shortage or rather unavailability of supervisors to train younger scientists in these new fields. The available supervisors were mostly trained in a more traditional fields or in the context of the relatively traditional paradigm of scholarship. Thus, Africa currently, suffers from a lack of supervisory capacity to train younger scientists in the emerging fields of Basic Medical Sciences. Methodology: This article is a perspective that included a narrative review of literature, critical appraisal of the current prevalent scenario, and proposition of a supervisory model. Relevant literature sources were considered. Effort was made to provide a practical supervisory model that might guide African doctoral schools to train doctoral candidates in emerging fields, leveraging on available resources while making strategic adaptions. It is important to note that this should be done in an evidence-based manner, hence standard practices were reviewed and considered. Contribution: There is currently a paucity of data and information on doctoral scholarship and supervision in Africa. There is a need to conduct research on relevant subjects to provide further insight into the prevalent scenarios, the root cause of the problems and postulate potential solutions to the problems. This article presents a model that might employ effective, innovative, and practical approaches to address the current situation. Otherwise, lack of adequate supervisory capacity could contribute perpetually to impeding adequate advancements in BMS in Africa, through scholarship, particularly in line with global trends and current realities. The article proposes a collaborative model for supervising emerging and novel PhDs.

“…These social ties isolate them from real-world interaction and interrupt their actual work by sending text messages, commenting on status, and viewing their recent posting on SNS (Luqman et al, 2017). Social media has a significant positive correlation with the teacher-student relationship (Šerić, 2019, 2020). However, social overload occurs when demands imposed by receptions and maintenance negatively affect users’ health, thereby distracting them from their original task.…”

In recent research on information systems (IS), the advantages of social networking sites (SNS) in the education field have received widespread attention. However, excessive use of SNSs will negatively impact students academic performance, leading to the discontinuation intentions of social media. Therefore, this study aims to investigate an extended research model drawing on the stress-strain-outcome (SSO) theory and transactional model of stress to examine the adverse effect of SNS stressors on academic performance. The required data from the target population was collected through a structured questionnaire. The valid sample size of this study was n = 505 respondents. The data were analyzed using structural equation modeling (SEM) in AMOS (version 23.0) to examine the study hypotheses. The results confirmed that the SNS stressors, namely, social overload, information overload, and system feature overload, induce strain in terms of poor academic performance by generating feelings of guilt. It also unravels the effect of guilt feelings on discontinuance intention indirectly. This study offers imperative theoretical and practical implications.
