The study looks into the issues that have arisen as a result of the computerization of records in selected secondary schools in Jos, as well as the vulnerability of the prevalent manual data processing to human errors. Information was gathered through observations made during physical visits to the schools' computer labs, questionnaires, and personal interviews with selected school Information and Communication Technology (ICT) employees. Administrators and information technology employees were among the people who took part in the survey.In Jos, Plateau State, Nigeria, seven private schools, one Federal Government College, one Federal Command Secondary School, one State Government owned school, and one Federal Government College were utilised. According to the findings, the most significant impediment to the computerization of academic records in the schools is a lack of funding. Funding plays a significant role in the purchase of proprietary School Management application packages.

The present study aims to describe the anatomical variations in Coeliac Trunk and Its Branches. At the level of the lower border of the twelfth thoracic vertebra, the coeliac trunk is the first anterior branch of the abdominal aorta. The three primary traditional branches of the celiac trunk are the hepatic, splenic, and left gastric arteries. The variations of the coeliac trunk are common but asymptomatic; they may become important during surgeries and in some radiological procedures. During routine dissection on adult cadavers in Anatomy department, we found some variations in the branching pattern of the coeliac trunk. The first branch of the coeliac trunk is the left gastric artery, which then divides into the splenic and hepatic arteries. The left hepatic artery is considered as the origin of the right gastric artery. In addition, one right aberrant hepatic artery is visible entering the right lobe of the liver from the superior mesenteric artery. Left inferior phrenic artery and dorsal pancreatic artery are found originating from the coeliac trunk. Left gastric artery normally originates from the coeliac trunk, but in our study it is arising directly from the abdominal aorta. Knowledge of the variations is very useful in surgical, oncologic or interventional procedures and should be kept in mind to avoid complications. Complications in abdominal surgeries can be avoided with an accurate knowledge of the anatomical variations of the coeliac trunk.

Technology sets new record as people discover novel ideas of the application of technology. Some of these innovations paved a way to give solutions to the problems in various fields especially in agriculture. The identified problem is that plant pathologists use different applications such as Google Earth and Microsoft Excel in managing the data given by the growers that will lead to disorganization of location data. Moreover, handling large amount of data with the GPS coordinates as the only identifier on the map can be tedious and consumes significant effort when retrieving the specific data or information needed. In order to address the issues, a plant pathologists‟ geotagging and monitoring system for infected banana plant was designed and developed as a remedy to the problem of the plant pathologist‟s recording, monitoring of sample with diseases in the vast hectares of banana plantations. It is called GETMOSYS. The GETMOSYS application has two parts: a website that is specifically created to be used by the Pathologist and the mobile application that is created to be used by the growers for their grower representatives. Prototyping predictive model was used as the system development method in developing and implementing the software. Black box testing was used for the software testing functionality of the website and mobile application. One plant pathologist and 24 personnel of a banana plantation evaluated the system usability using the User Experience Questionnaire (UEQ). The system shows excellent results in Attractiveness, Perspicuity, Efficiency.
