The significant roles of indigenous, Islamic, and colonial education are given special attention. The last section of the book looks at the current trends of educational reform in Africa, with a focus on selected case studies across the continent.

Book Synopsis EDUCATION-TRAINING-EMPLOYMENT, THE KEY TO AFRICA'S DEVELOPMENT IN THE ERA OF GLOBALIZATION by : Dr. Henry N. Tatangang
Download or read book EDUCATION-TRAINING-EMPLOYMENT, THE KEY TO AFRICA'S DEVELOPMENT IN THE ERA OF GLOBALIZATION written by Dr. Henry N. Tatangang and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2011-05-16 with total page 621 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: No one argues today that our world is modern. History teaches us that this modernity is the fruit of an evolution. This evolution that is the mainstream direction of world history has not been uniform on the entire face of the earth. At certain periods, in certain parts, localities, or countries of the world, changes and transformations took revolutionary forms. These changes and transformations are the result of the combination of factors. While some are involuntary, some are desired and sought for. The impacts of these changes and transformations affect the environment, life settings, as well as the lives of the people who are at their origin. The effects of changes and evolutions have taught human beings that change outcomes on the environment, on life setting, and to life itself can be induced. It is to these voluntary and planned transformations at the level of a community, a country, or group of countries from one continent to another, from one part of the world to another, has led to their classification as rich or poor, developed or underdeveloped. Other classifications place countries in three categories: developed countries (first world), emergent countries (second world), underdeveloped countries (third world).

Book excerpt: Education has been recognized as critical to the success of economic policies, equitable income distribution and the reduction of poverty. However, just when more and better education is needed, much of the world's population is being left behind. As successful participation in the world economy becomes more knowledge-intensive, many countries face the challenge of improving their educational systems. To varying degrees they must : a) bring their education up-to-date in transmitting knowledge and skills for dealing with the problems of the future; b) equalize access to high quality schooling; c) raise the level of math, language, and science acquisition; d) improve the effectiveness of educational resources; e) develop new approaches to schooling the disadvantaged; and f) develop mechanisms for the generation, acquisition, and application of appropriate knowledge.
Book Synopsis Why Educational Policies Can Fail by : George Psacharopoulos
Download or read book Why Educational Policies Can Fail written by George Psacharopoulos and published by . This book was released on 1990 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper reviews a number of educational policy statements in east African countries on issues ranging from combining education with production at the primary level to the financing of higher education. An assessment is made as to how successful the policies have been in achieving their original intention. The paper's conclusion is that policy outcomes fall far short of matching expectations, mainly because of insufficient, or the absence of, implementation. Most educational policies are not implemented because they are vaguely stated and the financing implications are not always worked out. Another common reason for failure is that the content of a policy is based on an empirically unsustained theoretical relationship between instruments and outcomes. The paper makes a plea for the formulation of more concrete, feasible and implementable policies based on documented cause-effect relationships.
Book Synopsis Globalisation, Enterprise and Knowledge by : Kenneth King
Download or read book Globalisation, Enterprise and Knowledge written by Kenneth King and published by Symposium Books Ltd. This book was released on 2002-01-01 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines some of the major challenges faced by African education by placing them in two important contexts. First, it explores how new economic dynamics, linked to globalisation, impact upon educational priorities and possibilities. Second, it stresses the need to locate educational policies and practices alongside approaches in other sectors. This leads to an analysis of the intersections between education, training and enterprise development. Through detailed examinations of recent policies and practices in Ghana, Kenya and South Africa, the book shows how different national approaches emerge in spite of apparent convergences in donor agency policy and international policy discourses. Aimed at policy makers and practitioners as well as academics, the book outlines a series of theoretical, policy and practical challenges for the future of African education and its broader role in development.

Download or read book The Development of Education Systems in Postcolonial Africa written by F. J. Nieuwenhuis and published by . This book was released on 1996 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study traces educational policy development and implementation in the postcolonial era in eight sub-Saharan African countries. A basic premise is that the education system in any country is a result of interacting forces in the unique historical development of the country. The volume analyzes the forces in terms of their relevance and applicability to the South African situation, especially as far as donor funding is concerned. The countries of the study are Botswana, Kenya, Lesotho, Malawi, Swaziland, Tanzania, Zambia, and Zimbabwe. Chapters of the book include: (1) "Background to the Study"; (2) "Educational Development in Postcolonial Africa"; (3) "Donor Aid to Africa"; (4) "Policy Options for Educational Development in Africa"; and (5) "Policy Options for Donor Aid." Six tables and 14 figures accompany the text. Two appendices and a 44-item bibliography conclude the text. (EH)

Book Synopsis Partnerships in Educational Development by : Iffat Farah
Download or read book Partnerships in Educational Development written by Iffat Farah and published by Symposium Books Ltd. This book was released on 2006-05-15 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about the development of one institution and its developmental work in education in south and central asia and in east Africa: the Institute for Educational Development (IED) at the Aga Khan University (AKU) in Karachi, Pakistan. The IED came into being in 1993 and launched its first programme in 1994, an M.Ed. in teacher education. It recruited 20 teachers, carefully selected from schools in Pakistan, east Africa, Tajikistan and Bangladesh. There should have been a teacher from India, but sadly she was not granted a visa to come. These 20 teachers, graduating from the M.Ed. course 18 months later, were the first graduates from the IED. They became the first Professional Development Teachers (PDTs), working with schools and running short courses for other teachers at the IED. After three years of PDT work, some of these graduates were selected for Ph.D. studies overseas, and are now doctoral graduates and central IED faculty. The wheel has come full circle. In the meantime, the M.Ed. programme has flourished and developed with eight cohorts of selected teachers. The IED programmes have expanded in a variety of ways and in a variety of directions. Some are academic programmes educating teachers and educational managers in a university environment, albeit with school-focused work. Some are professional programmes located in the field, albeit with theoretical elements perceived as central to the developmental process. The IED has attracted attention both nationally and internationally. In the countries listed above, professional programmes have developed to run alongside the central IED operation. The IED’s work has become visible to government agencies, who from tentative initial investment are now looking towards the IED to work with them in the developmental field. Other countries have seen the results of the IED’s work in the original countries and have asked to join the developmental enterprise. The IED now works with three countries in east Africa, namely, Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda, in Afghanistan, Syria and several central Asian countries including Tajikistan and Kyrgyzstan. There are possibilities of initiating work in other countries in the region. Perceived in such terms, the IED’s growth and influence reads like an educational developmental success story. And of course it is a success. But this is not to say that there are not many issues and problems to face in its day-to-day and decade-to-decade development. In 2003, the IED celebrated 10 years of operation. This was a time to celebrate and also to take stock of its achievements and issues. It has many impact programmes in place, seeking to provide sound research evidence to document processes in learning and growth and issues that have to be addressed. One problem of rapid growth is that it is easy for the institute and its faculty to become overextended, so that in-depth review of programmes and outcomes is never achieved. Despite considerable overextension, the IED is striving to avoid this danger. This book is a product of the 10 years of development. It had been hoped to complete it for the 10-year celebrations, but as with other aspects of the IED, it kept on growing. This volume tries to provide an account of development from a number of perspectives, such as historical, chronological, issues-based and honestly critical.
