1.5 Significance of the Study
The
study could be beneficial for students as well as for the institution.
The valuable feedback gotten from respondents should help students to
realize the benefits of repository in their education. Institutes can
invest more in building repository to enhance the academic performance
of their student and produce better results. Note that the relevance of
internet facilities is measured by how effective, sufficient and
accessible it is to students and users. The research will also provide
in-depth insight into the various repository facilities and how students
can be able to use them to improve academic performance.
1.6 Scope/Limitation of the study
The
self-report criterion is a limitation. Future research should employ
more objective measures of repository. This study covers all regular
undergraduate students in University of Abuja, Nigeria. These are 100 -
400 levels student including 500 levels law. The study therefore
excludes centre for distance learning and continuing education (CDL and
CE) students and sandwich students. Also, the study is not restricted to
any gender. It includes both male and female undergraduates at all
level of study.
