“…Previous programs aimed at providing ICT training to audiences in low-resource settings are limited, but highlight the importance of relevance of the concepts taught to the participants' work [26]. Our program affirmed the need for relevance, with highly rated activities being those that incorporated local examples or skills that could be easily applied to everyday work.…”

ObjectivesInformation and communication technology (ICT) tools are increasingly important for clinical care, research, data management, international collaborations, and dissemination. Many technologies would be particularly useful for healthcare workers in resource-limited settings; however, these individuals are the least likely to utilize ICT tools, in part because they lack knowledge and skills necessary to use them. Our program aimed to train researchers in low-resource settings on using ICT tools.MethodsWe conducted a tiered, blended learning program for researchers in Kenya on three areas of ICT: geographic information systems, data management, and communication tools. Tiers included didactic online courses for 100-300 students for each topic, skills workshops for 30 students, and mentored projects for 10. Concurrently, a training of trainers course comprised of an online course and a skills workshop to ensure sustainable ongoing training.ResultsCourse ratings were high, particularly when participants engaged in hands-on skill building activities. Teaching that incorporated local examples was most valuable. Discussion boards were sometimes distracting, depending on multiple factors. Mentored projects were most useful when there were clear expectations, pre-existing projects or data, and clear timelines.DiscussionTraining in the use of ICT tools is essential to improve their use among researchers in low-income settings. However, very few training courses have been described. Our students demonstrated acquisition of new skills and felt these skills to be valuable in their workplaces.ConclusionsFurther and ongoing training in ICT skills should be considered in other low-resource settings, and could use our program as a foundational model.

“…The AHP method has been used extensively in different domains such as e-business improvement (Lee and Kozar, 2006), quality and performance measurement (Kannan, 2010;Min, 2010), railway scheduling (Isaai et al, 2011), inventory and disaster management (Borade et al, 2013;Nivolianitou et al, 2015), workshop evaluation (Lucas et al, 2017), systems design (Ulloa et al, 2018), and many more. It has also been extensively applied for SC-related issues such as SC risk assessment (Dong and Cooper, 2016), supplier selection (Chai et al, 2013;Dweiri et al, 2016), sustainable SC adoption (Luthra et al, 2016), SC performance evaluation (Yang, 2009), and optimization of SC networks (Sharma, Moon, and Bae, 2008).…”

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to understand the drivers that create complexity in the supply chain and develop a mathematical model to measure the level of supply chain complexity (SCC).Design/methodology/approachThrough extensive literature review, the authors discussed various drivers of SCC. These drivers were classified into five dimensions based on expert opinion. Moreover, a novel hybrid mathematical model was developed by integrating analytical hierarchy process (AHP) and grey relational analysis (GRA) methods to measure the level of SCC. A case study was conducted to demonstrate the applicability of the developed model and analyze the SCC level of the company in the study.FindingsThe authors identified 22 drivers of SCC, which were further clustered into five complexity dimensions. The application of the developed model to the company in the case study showed that the SCC level of the company was 0.44, signifying that there was a considerable scope of improvement in terms of minimizing complexity. The company that serves as the focus of this case study mainly needs improvement in tackling issues concerning government regulation, internal communication and information sharing and company culture.Originality/valueIn this paper, the authors propose a model by integrating AHP and GRA methods that can measure the SCC level based on various complexity drivers. The combination of such methods, considering their ability to convert the inheritance and interdependence of drivers into a single mathematical model, is preferred over other techniques. To the best of the authors' knowledge, this is the first attempt at developing a hybrid multicriteria decision-based model to quantify SCC.

Tecnologías de la información y comunicaciones en el proceso enseñanza-aprendizaje universitario: Progreso educativo rEsumEn El propósito del trabajo fue analizar las tecnologías de la información y comunicaciones en el proceso enseñanza-aprendizaje universitario como progreso educativo. Se indicó cómo se acrecienta el conocimiento tanto en los docentes y alumnos mediante el uso aplicativo de las tecnologías de la información y comunicaciones (TIC). Asimismo, se destacó la necesidad de los docentes en mantener capacitaciones de forma sistemáticas para el uso de las TIC en aula y lo que representa como mecanismo de integración para la formación profesional. Finalmente, se describe la creación de habilidades binomiales entre docentes-estudiantes que posibilitan modificar el enfoque tradicional por enfoque de competencia durante la nueva enseñanza del siglo XXI..
