Book Synopsis Paradigms of Learning by : Malavika Karlekar
Download or read book Paradigms of Learning written by Malavika Karlekar and published by SAGE. This book was released on 2004-04-08 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Total Literacy Campaign (TLC), Launched in 1988, was different from other literacy programmes in that it moved decision-making out of Delhi to the districts, making the district magistrate/ collector the lynchpin of the programme. It broadened the campaign focus to include 'environment building' that involved entire populations, used innovative methods like kalajathas (cultural caravans), and appointed umbrella organization of NGOs to coordinate disparate literacy efforts across the country. The TLC has been by far the most effective strategy to deal with the problem of India's endemic illiteracy. The book provides representative snapshots of the working of the TLC, besides an analysis of the adult literacy situation in India and connected issues. Part I brings together case studies of the TLC in six districts of Ajmer, Dumka, Ernakulam, Ganjam, Nellore and Pudukkottai in the states of Rajasthan, Jharkhand, Kerela, Orissa, Andhra Pradesh and Tamil Nadu respectively. Part II discusses the results of these studies to give a comprehensive overview of the programme. Assessments of the TLC have swung between 'highly optimistic' and totally 'sceptical'. The optimists see it as a peoples movement that liberated many. The sceptics are convinced that no meaningful change can be brought about without social transformation and structural change. This book makes the point that any assessment of the TLC must take into account the programmes overall strategy, and the underlying assumptions that informed it. The studies in the volume underscore the serious problem of sustaining the gains from the literacy campaigns in the prevailing socio-economic environment of inequalities and disparities, how the absence of an environment that prompts one to read and write results in relapse to illiteracy, and how primers in unfamiliar languages describing alien situations creates retention problems for the learners. The case studies show that the TLC is not a magic wand, and that for the programme to sustain itself, regional contexts and differences must be factored into the strategy. This book represents a fresh look at the TLC, taken from the perspective of independent researchers trying to understand and evaluate not just outcomes, but also the processes and dynamics that impacted upon the programme. It combines first-hand field information with analysis and projections for the future. It will be of interest to academics, researchers, policy-makers and activists, besides the general well-informed reader.

Book Synopsis Schooling for All by : V. Santhakumar
Download or read book Schooling for All written by V. Santhakumar and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Does substantial expansion of educational facilities by itself create the required demand for education? Since demand for education depends on many socio-economic, political, and religious factors, is the supply of free schooling alone adequate? Schooling for All demonstrates that there is still a substantial need to create demand for schooling among all levels of society, especially in those socio-economic groups which are yet to see the importance of education. The volume critically analyses the primary drawbacks of the Indian education system-non-enrolment, dropouts, irregular attendance, and inadequate learning. It establishes the need to strongly encourage parents to recognize the importance of education for their children's future. Arguing that supply-side strategies-free education, midday meals, opening more schools-have not proved effective since the problem of inadequate demand is much larger, the authors delineate the measures that are required to boost the demand for education in India.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We came to the task of editing this book from different disciplines and back grounds but with a mutuality of interest in exploring the concept of literacy campaigns in historical and comparative perspective. One of us is a professor of comparative education who has participated in and written about literacy campaigns in Third World countries, notably Nicaragua; the other is a com parative social historian who has written on literacy campaigns in Western his tory. Both of us believed that literacy could only be understood in particular As Harvey Graff has noted, "to consider any of the ways in historical contexts. which literacy intersects 'with social, political, economic, cultural, or psychological life ... requires excursions into other records.") Thus, we have set out in this edited collection to explore some five hundred years of literacy campaigns in vastly different societies: Reformation Germany, early modern Sweden and Scotland, the nineteenth-century United States, nineteenth- and early twentieth-century Russia and the Soviet Union, pre Revolutionary and Revolutionary China, and a variety of Third World countries in the post-World War II period (Tanzania, Cuba, Nicaragua, and India). In addition, we have included studies of the UNESCO-sponsored Experimental World Literacy Program and recent adult literacy efforts in three industrialized Western countries (the United Kingdom, France, and the United States).

Book Synopsis National Literacy Campaigns and Movements by : Jose Carlos Chiaramonte
Download or read book National Literacy Campaigns and Movements written by Jose Carlos Chiaramonte and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-09-08 with total page 357 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Major campaigns to raise levels of literacy have taken place for centuries and share many common elements. But despite literary campaigns spanning over five decades, 860 million adults still lack minimal ability to read, write, and calculate. Why is literacy of such great importance and why have so many years of campaigning for it not been successful in fully overcoming this obstacle? "National Literacy Campaigns and Movements" explores these questions by examining campaigns in vastly different societies from a historical and comparative perspective.The volume focuses on literacy movements from the past, including those of Reformation Germany, early modern Sweden and Scotland, nineteenth-century United States, nineteenth- and early twentieth-century Russia and the Soviet Union, pre-Revolutionary and Revolutionary China, and Tanzania, Cuba, Nicaragua, and India. Contributors analyze literacy goals and outcomes in specific contexts. The editors distinguish quantitative and qualitative dimensions of literacy activities, such as the difference between the spread of literacy and patterns of its use. The common enterprise of this book is to expand upon the contributors' previous research to include a comparative dimension.This book offers the first systematic attempt to examine, critically and comparatively, the concepts and facts of large-scale literacy campaigns in more than a dozen societies over nearly five-hundred years. It offers a valuable historical lesson not only for historians, but also for educators: that instead of concentrating only on the recent period, we should use the vast and complex history of literacy movements to shed understanding on the present and future of literacy. A major new introduction to this edition asserts recent literary campaigns and the lessons provided by their success and failures. It also describes how the focus of some movements has evolved.

Book Synopsis Can Information Campaigns Spark Local Participation and Improve Outcomes? by : Abhijit Banerjee
Download or read book Can Information Campaigns Spark Local Participation and Improve Outcomes? written by Abhijit Banerjee and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2006 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: "There is a growing belief in development policy circles that participation by local communities in basic service delivery can promote development outcomes. A central plank of public policy for improving primary education services in India is the participation of village education committees (VECs), consisting of village government leaders, parents, and teachers. The authors report findings from a survey in the state of Uttar Pradesh, of public schools, households, and VEC members, on the status of education services and the extent of community participation in the public delivery of education services. They find that parents do not know that a VEC exists, sometimes even when they are supposed to be members of it; VEC members are unaware of even key roles they are empowered to play in education services; and public participation in improving education is negligible, and correspondingly, people's ranking of education on a list of village priorities is low. Large numbers of children in the villages have not acquired basic competency in reading, writing, and arithmetic. Yet parents, teachers, and VEC members seem not to be fully aware of the scale of the problem, and seem not to have given much thought to the role of public agencies in improving outcomes. Learning failures coexist with public apathy to improving it through public action. Can local participation be sparked through grassroots campaigns that inform communities about the VEC and its role in local service delivery? Can such local participation actually affect learning outcomes, and can any impact be sustained? The authors describe information and advocacy campaigns that have been experimentally implemented to address some of the problems with local participation, and future research plans to evaluate their impact."--World Bank web site.
