Authors: Omollo Lewis Otieno , Karanu Juliet Wanjira , Wekesa Moses Wafula 
Published: December 2022

Purpose: This study sought to assess how financial innovation has affected demand for money in Kenya.
Methodology: The research looked at the value of transactions made using modern innovations including ATMs, point-of-sale (POS), online banking, and phone banking. Under the cointegration, granger causality, and error correction modeling, the study used the ordinary least squares (OLS) regression methodology as the estimate method.
Findings: Financial innovation, according to the study, has an important role in growing money demand in a country by enhancing financial visibility, facilitating financial processes during trades, and enhancing financial competence. Financial system innovation in emerging nations such as Kenya indicates a potential for financial sector expansion. Financial innovation has shown to be a fundamental predictor of financial advancement, high-tech expansion, efficient financial market access, and hence better economic growth via the diversity of financial facilities.
Conclusion: Financial innovation has resulted in the development of employment opportunities in non-bank financial institutions. It has also led to integration of commercial bank, non-bank private lenders, insurance firms, and housing finance firms.
Recommendations: This study recommend the central bank of Kenya (CBK) to fine-tune its policies to ensure it is well suited to deal with the challenges posed by sophisticated financial innovations. CBK can increase its capability to predict the consequences of financial innovations and act quickly to counter any negative effect of financial innovation on the effectiveness of monetary policy. The study also recommend company and organizations managers to adopt financial innovations in order to boost service quality through efficient and quick service provision via innovations like mobile and online payment systems.

Issues, Challenges, and Prospects of the Introduction of the Practice of Paralegals: The Role of NBA Vis-À-Vis Access to Justice in Nigeria
Authors: Akpan Macaulay 
Published: December 2022

Purpose: This paper examined the uptightness of the legal practice in Nigeria as evident in extant provisions of the legal practitioners’ rules of professional conduct which prohibit non-lawyers from the practice of law in Nigeria. It is however, posited that it would be rather reasonable, beneficial and dignifying to borrow a leaf from other climes where the practice of paralegals-persons trained in law and law practices and/or under the guidelines provided by relevant bodies of Bar Associations in these different jurisdictions, is in vogue.
Methodology: This work adopts doctrinal, descriptive, prescriptive and analytical research methods.
Findings: This work found that most lawyers in their write-ups expressed general apprehensions that the introduction of the practice of paralegals would open the floodgate of competition and more sharp practices in the legal profession.
Conclusion: Most lawyers suggest that the practice of paralegals should not be encouraged in Nigeria. However, some others welcome the concept provided that the practice of paralegals is well regulated and streamlined.
Recommendations: Nevertheless, this paper recommends, among other things, that while the envisaged regulations for the practice of paralegals is welcomed, there is a need to consider the entire concept dispassionately. This should be with a view to assessing its potentials in terms of its capacity to ameliorate the inherent occupational stress arising from the ever-increasing workload usually rummaged through, distilled and discerned by lawyers, in the performance of professional duties to their clients. This, therefore, will elongate the lifespan of legal practitioners vis-a-vis appropriate individual and corporate life insurance policies in place, with attendant improved productivity and financial freedom both to the paralegals and qualified lawyers in view.

Authors: Mutiso Pauline Nzinza , Odhiambo Solomon 
Published: December 2022

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to determine the efficiency of teaching strategies for learners with mental impairment in acquiring daily living skills.
Methodology: A descriptive survey design was used for the investigation. The acquisition of daily-living skills was the dependent variable in this study, whereas the independent factors were instructional techniques, how instructors utilized the methods, problems faced, and teaching/learning materials used by teachers. Purposive sampling was utilized to choose the district, special units, learners, and instructors for the research.
Results: The study's findings revealed that learners with MR were not effectively taught DLS because teachers did not employ suitable teaching techniques, tactics, or teaching/learning resources. Seventy-eight percent (78 percent) of teachers in MR units were not trained to educate such students. Only 22 percent of the teachers had received MR training. According to the findings, forty-eight (80 percent) of learners did not receive enough DLS because the techniques and teaching/learning materials employed were neither appropriate nor relevant.
Conclusion: The study indicated that learners were not properly taught DLS for the acquisition of independent living skills.
Recommendations: The research suggests that the government establish cost-effective training for teachers in the field of mental retardation in order to address the issue of understaffing and inadequate instruction. It also recommends that schools with special units be led by teachers who are mental retardation specialists because they can understand the needs, abilities, and interests of learners with MR and provide an appropriate learning environment, as well as provide necessary support to the teachers in the units.

Authors: Nyakundi Tabitha Ondari 
Published: December 2022

Purpose: The goal of this study was to determine whether the amount of experience and training of the instructors had an impact on their decision on the teaching strategies for S.E.E.
Methodology: The plan includes the sampling techniques, data gathering, and analytic processes. Two tools—the Teachers' Questionnaire and the Observation Schedule—were used to gather the data for this study.
Findings: The study's main conclusions demonstrated that the available teaching-learning resources were insufficient, which had a negative impact on the efficient instruction of S.E.E. in secondary schools. It was also discovered that teachers lacked the necessary and competent teaching tools to instill values in their charges.
Conclusion: Since most teachers are not qualified to teach the subject and have not taken any in-service training, they are not familiar with the methods of teaching S.E.E.
Recommendation: The study suggests that instructors should get training in effective ways to teach morally upright subjects including government, history, and survival skills. For effective social science education, teachers should make use of a number of materials. In order to completely accomplish the fourth purpose of education, which stipulates that "education should foster solid moral and religious values," S.E.E. as a topic has to be brought back into the curriculum.
