Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book is a must read for policy makers, academics, university administrators and post graduate research students in the broad field of education and in higher education studies in particular. The book brings together a wealth of information regarding the imperatives of transformation in Africa’s higher education systems. Not only do some of the chapters provide critical discussion about the conceptualisation of transformation, the majority of the chapters reflect on empirical evidence for transformation in diverse fields of mathematics, science, gender, the training of doctoral students and the governance and management of universities. This central theme of sustainable change and reform runs across the chapters of the book. For students, the book provides exemplars of practical research in higher education. For scholars in higher education and policy makers, specific issues for reform are identified and discussed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book, Education in Nigeria: Reflections and Global Perspectives, provides a broad overview of education in Nigeria. It recognizes the vital role education plays in the development of Nigeria and has attempted to air the concerns and call of the Nigerian public as well as educators for reform in the educational system in Nigeria. The book further recognizes that Nigerian education continues to be evolved, first into a system of Western European education and then into a global system of education. It attempts to examine the status of education in Nigeria and thereby seeks solutions by exploring Nigeria’s and global historical perspectives, current trends, and future directions regarding students and learning, teachers and teaching, the school curriculum, and administration of schools. It is expected that the comprehensive nature of the text will be beneficial to individuals in teacher preparation programs as well as those who plan to work with children in pre-kindergarten (nursery) through secondary settings. The chapter content of the book focuses on the variation of thought as to the principal objectives of educators to help students in Nigeria develop habits, skills and ideas, and help them to think. It adds to the importance of providing education to all, especially at the time when Nigeria is frankly making an eff ort to affirm democracy. For any nation to be truly democratic, it must maintain an educated electorate. Education prepares people to make informed decisions that affect the society. All children in Nigeria should, therefore, receive an education to prepare them to become effective members of the world society. This book seeks to examine and reflect on education in Nigeria and globally. “...are genuinely working in order to produce not only intelligent men and women, who will be cultured and skilled, but also the leaders who will adapt themselves to their environment, adjust themselves to the outside world and give direction and purpose to their people for the building of a modern nation, whose nationals must realize that they are destined to give leadership in many directions of human endeavour.” ~ Dr. Nnamdi Azikiwe, FMR President of Nigeria, speaking of progressive elements of Nigeria

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Right to education is a recognised right within the context of the International Human Rights Instruments. Basic education is also considered a fundamental right of children in most of those instruments. Nations were therefore on this ground encouraged by the United Nations to consider right to basic education a fundamental right by domesticating the Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC) in order to advance the promotion of children’s right to basic education in their respective domestic levels. For this reason, Nigeria as one of the signatories to the CRC has domesticated the convention by passing the Child Rights Act 2003 (CRA) at the national level, for all states of the federation to replicate. However, despite the passage of the CRA and the availability of other legislations and a blueprint educational policy, basic education is not yet a recognised fundamental right under the Nigerian law and consequently not enforceable. This thesis assesses the legal and policy framework on education in Nigeria to see how effective they are in promoting and protecting the right to basic education as a fundamental right of the Nigerian child. To achieve this, qualitative legal research methodology is adopted, by which the thesis analyses the available laws relating to the provision of basic education and the available educational policy in that regard. The same methodology is used to analyse the adequacy or otherwise of the law and policy and semi-structured interview approach is also used to gain the research objectives through responses from the interviewees. Through the analysis of the legal framework, this study finds that the law is weak and inadequate for the recognition of education generally and basic education in particular as a fundamental right, hence, it affects the availability of and accessibility to basic education in Nigeria. The thesis therefore concludes that right to basic education is not recognised under the Nigerian law as an enforceable fundamental right. The thesis also finds that instability and improper implementation of educational policy also affects the provision of compulsory basic education. The thesis further finds that among other factors precluding the protection and promotion of this right are legislative and judicial factors. As a result of these findings, the thesis recommends constitutional reforms, legislative amendments and judicial re-orientation in order to strengthen the legal framework and ensure proper implementation of policy for the recognition, promotion and protection of basic education as fundamental right in Nigeria.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about the right to basic education and its impact on development in Africa. It focuses on the elusive subject of litigating the right to education by examining jurisprudence from select African countries and India. The project further analyses the various challenges that impede access to education, with the attendant lack of political will to curb corruption, and calls for the building of strong institutions and the involvement of both state and non-state actors in driving development via education. It also covers the scope for legal practitioners and policy makers, and supports institutional framework in realizing the right to basic education.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1974, a comprehensive history of Nigerian Education, from early times right through to the time of publication, had long been needed by all concerned with Education in Nigeria, students, teachers and educational administrators. No one was better qualified than Professor Fafunwa to provide such a book, and in doing so he gave due emphasis to the beginnings of Education in its three main stages of indigenous, Muslim and Christian Education. Nigerian Education had been considered all too often as a comparatively recent phenomenon, but this book points out from the start that ‘Education is as old as Man himself in Africa’ and that both Islam and Christianity were comparative newcomers in the field. A historical treatment of these three strands which have combined to make up the modern Educational system was vital to a clear understanding of what was needed for the future, and most of the first half of the book is concerned with these Educational beginnings. The imposing of a foreign colonial system on this framework did not always lead to a happy fusion of the systems, and the successes and the failures are examined in detail. There was no shortage of documentary evidence in the form of reports and statistics during the decades prior to publication, but this evidence was frequently scattered and inaccessible to the student, so that the author’s careful selection of key evidence and reports, often drawn from his own personal experience, will be invaluable for those wishing to trace the development of Education in Nigeria up to the early 1970s. A knowledge of the history and development of the Nigerian Education system, of the numerous and intensely varied personalities and beliefs which have combined and often conflicted to shape it, is indispensable to all students in colleges and universities studying to become teachers. It is this knowledge that Professor Fafunwa set out to provide, drawing on his wide experience as teacher writer and educationalist.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every year, the World Bank’s World Development Report (WDR) features a topic of central importance to global development. The 2018 WDR—LEARNING to Realize Education’s Promise—is the first ever devoted entirely to education. And the time is right: education has long been critical to human welfare, but it is even more so in a time of rapid economic and social change. The best way to equip children and youth for the future is to make their learning the center of all efforts to promote education. The 2018 WDR explores four main themes: First, education’s promise: education is a powerful instrument for eradicating poverty and promoting shared prosperity, but fulfilling its potential requires better policies—both within and outside the education system. Second, the need to shine a light on learning: despite gains in access to education, recent learning assessments reveal that many young people around the world, especially those who are poor or marginalized, are leaving school unequipped with even the foundational skills they need for life. At the same time, internationally comparable learning assessments show that skills in many middle-income countries lag far behind what those countries aspire to. And too often these shortcomings are hidden—so as a first step to tackling this learning crisis, it is essential to shine a light on it by assessing student learning better. Third, how to make schools work for all learners: research on areas such as brain science, pedagogical innovations, and school management has identified interventions that promote learning by ensuring that learners are prepared, teachers are both skilled and motivated, and other inputs support the teacher-learner relationship. Fourth, how to make systems work for learning: achieving learning throughout an education system requires more than just scaling up effective interventions. Countries must also overcome technical and political barriers by deploying salient metrics for mobilizing actors and tracking progress, building coalitions for learning, and taking an adaptive approach to reform.

This book was released on 2019 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dissertation is a comparative analysis of the implementation of the right to education in the Democratic Republic of Congo and Nigeria. The context is that of education in schools and other educational institutions. The right to education is protected in numerous international and regional documents. This study will focus more on the International Covenant on Economic Social and Cultural Rights at the international level and the African Charter on Human and Peoples Rights at the regional level. Article 17(1) of the African Charter states that every individual has the right to education. But article 13 of ICESCR provides more detail, which encourages state parties to make primary education free and compulsory for all. In addition, secondary education shall be made generally available and accessible for all, while higher education shall be made equally accessible for all. The Constitution of Democratic Republic of Congo of 18 February 2006 and that of Nigeria of 1999 provide for and guarantee the right to education as the consequence of ratifying international and regional treaties. This study has been motivated by the fact that despite the enforceability of the right to education under the DRC and Nigerian Constitutions, education is still not available or accessible to all; and primary education is not compulsory and free. These countries are facing almost the same challenges of implementing the right to education, as they are among African developing countries. The challenges are due to several factors, some of which are poverty, bad governance and the mismanagement of finances, armed conflict and war, as well as the character of the nonjusticiability of the right to education. Therefore, there is an increase in illiteracy and a weak economy in these countries. Because lifelong learning and education is a force that can drive a country to sustainable development; the best investment the DRC and Nigeria can give to their citizens is to educate them and give them a better life. This will result in the stability of both individuals and the country, otherwise the country itself is in danger. To prevent this situation, the DRC and Nigerian governments must consider their international obligations to undertake steps for the full realisation of the right to education. They have to consider rendering this right justiciable and enforceable before the courts to allow individuals to seek reparation in cases of violation.

Download or read book The Nature of Research written by Angela Brew and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2002-11-01 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Increasingly, new academics are entering higher education without conventional research training and without a clear idea of what research actually involves. This is particularly true of academics who enter from having spent time in a profession including many in the newer disciplines. In addition, institutions of higher education which do not have a tradition of research are increasingly competing for research funding. The Nature of Research looks at this background and discusses what is wrong with academic research and discusses what is wrong with academic research today, what needs to change for it to survive, how to allow new kinds of research to flourish, directions for future action and how academic research can teach us to live in today's complex and uncertain society. The aim of the book, then, is to provide a stimulus to thinking about the nature and role of research with a view to considering what might be appropriate in the next century. Since research is so central to university life, looking at research will tell us much about what the university of the future might be like.

Download or read book International Empirical Studies on Religion and Socioeconomic Human Rights written by Hans-Georg Ziebertz and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-03-06 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Socioeconomic rights include rights with regard to social security, labour and employment, as well as cultural rights which may be regarded as a shield for the protection of human dignity, especially of specific groups, such as women, children and refugees. The enforceability of socioeconomic rights clearly distinguishes them from other rights. These rights need, perhaps more than others, the support of civil society. Because states have leeway in how resources are distributed, civil society has a major impact on what resources are used to fulfil socio-economic rights. One of the actors in the public arena are religious traditions, respective Churches. Most of them have developed ethical standards for individual conduct and rules for living together in society based on their basic scriptures. All three monotheistic religions, Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, are marked by a caring engagement for the poor, the sick, the old and the foreign. From an empirical perspective, the general research question of this volume is how young people understand and evaluate socioeconomic rights and to which degree religious convictions and practices are connected with attitudes towards these human rights. Can religion be identified as a force supporting the human rights regime and which additional concepts strengthen or weaken the consent to these rights? The richness of empirical data contributes to a better understanding how socioeconomic rights are legitimated in the opinion of more than 10.000 respondents in 14 countries.
