    (Online Journal of Educational Sciences and Technology (NOJEST, 2020) Ajeyalemi, D; Adeosun, A,O; Owoyemi, T,E; Anyikwa, E,B; Awofala, A,O; Olafare, F,O; Ajeyalemi, F,O
    This study investigated the Joint Universities Preliminary Examinations Board (JUPEB)’s candidates’ rating and assessment of the programme in Nigeria within the blueprint of quantitative paradigm of the descriptive survey research design. The participants consisted of 139 JUPEB candidates during the 2019/2020 session enrolled in three universities. Three research questions and one null hypothesis were raised to guide the study. Data collected through the Current JUPEB Candidates’ Questionnaire (Cronbach alpha coefficient of 0.87) were coded on the SPSS version 24 in which the research questions were answered using percentage and mean and the null hypothesis was tested using an independent samples t-test at 0.05 level of significance. Results showed that the current JUPEB candidates rated and assessed the JUPEB Programme in terms of quality and access and in terms of facilities and logistics for examinations respectively as satisfactory and that they would recommend the Programme to family and friends. Also, there was a statistically significant influence of type of university on their rating, in favour of the government owned university. Based on these findings, it is recommended that university governing councils should make substantial funding available for the JUPEB centres to increase quality of outputs from the JUPEB centres.

    (International Journal of Innovative Technology Integration in Education (IJITIE, 2020) Ajeyalemi, D; Adeosun, A,O; Owoyemi, T,E; Anyikwa, E,B; Awofala, A.O; Olafare, O,F; Ajeyalemi, O,F
    This study examined the perceptions of parents and tutors on the implementation of the Joint Universities Preliminary Examinations Board (JUPEB) Programme in Nigeria within the scheme of numerical archetype of the descriptive survey research design. The 73 study participants consisted of 28 parents and 45 tutors of the current JUPEB candidates enrolled in three JUPEB Centresin South-West Nigeria during 2019/2020 academic session. Two research questions and two null hypotheses were put forward to guide the study. Data collected through JUPEB Teaching Staff Questionnaire (Cronbach alpha coefficient of 0.89) and JUPEB Candidates’ Parents Questionnaire (Cronbach alpha coefficient of 0.93) were coded on the SPSS version 24 in which the research questions were answered using percentage and mean while the null hypotheses were tested using an independent samples t-test at 0.05 level of significance. Results showed that the parents and the tutors had significantly different perceptions of the challenges that candidates face with the JUPEB programme. Also, both of them had positive rating of the programme implementation, though their ratings also significantly differed. Based on these findings, it is recommended that parents should be inundated with the activities of JUPEB Programme from time to time through town hall meetings to keep them abreast of the development in JUPEB Centres.
