Presentation of findings to the class

My aspect of interest in the university is utilization of university resources to its full capacity. On a survey done by to evaluate motivational strategies and the utilization of internet resources in most universities, it was found that most challenges such as inadequate infrastructural support, lack of enough and advanced telecommunication facilities and unreliability of the public electric power output (Ajegbomogun, Olatunji & Popoola 170). These challenges have been hindering the full utilization of the internet resource in the university for both the faculty staff members as well as the students’ association (Ajegbomogun, Olatunji & Popoola 170). Bridging the troubles would therefore be our aim.
