ABSTRACT
Abstract: This research is an assessment of the six years of existence of “Tsangaya Schools” in Kaduna state, Nigeria. The research centers on ascertaining the achievements recorded since after the implementation of the tsangaya schools. Accordingly, the research investigates the challenges facing the implementation processes. The methodology adopted in the research is a direct interview. The tsangaya schools are visited to obtain primary data on the implementation status as well as the nature of running the affairs of the schools. Accordingly, statistical data about the school is obtained from Federal and State Ministries of Education. The research found that there are thirty-five Quranic schools under the program across the state. Also, there has been an effort to integrate formal education in such schools. The research learned that, among others, problems surrounding the program include inadequate staffing, inadequate funding, and an unconducive learning environment.
ABSTRACT
Abstract: A society is built on a set of behaviors that are known as culture. These behaviors (consisting of dos and don’ts) are expected to be respected by all members of that society. Living in accordance with the provisions of the culture is considered as morality, and is always welcome by a sound citizen. Thus, the government and other influential members of a society do all they could toward the improvement and restoration of these cultures. This paper aimed at finding out contributions of the Kano State Re-Orientation Program (Hukumar A Daidaita Sahu) toward restoration and improvement of Hausa moral values in Kano state. The methods used in conducting the research are the use of the library and interviews with stakeholders. The importance of the research includes exposing the high-flying achievements of the Kano State Re-Orientation Program. The research could also be a catalyst to incite the Kano state and probably other state governments to reactivate the program (or any other program of the same kind) for goodness sake.
ABSTRACT
Abstract: During slavery, white people had a keen interest for the African continent and took the able-bodied persons to the Americas as slaves. In 1988, Toni Morrison released Beloved to castigate the evil of slavery and how it dehumanizes individuals and leaves sequels in their lives. This article pinpoints the hardships of slavery that lead Sethe to kill her daughter to save her from the excruciating treatment of slaves by their masters. Sethe’s committing infanticide displays the extent to which women suffer much from slavery.
ABSTRACT
Abstract: The Fallen Angel, Lucifer, was once described as the Prince of the Air. Today, he controls the airwaves through his agents and minions. Now we can choose to believe in such agents of metaphysical evil or not, but one thing is for certain, there are those who do believe in him and worship and perform rites for him. Perhaps they are doing no more than venerating a principle of evil, thinking that they are worshipping an actual entity that does not exist. Whether this entity exists or not matters not. What does matter is that the globalist cabal who are purveyors of evil venerate a principle of evil and perpetrate great harm upon the world they control. They worship their beast and are in the process of devising a Great Reset of the economic order. They will sabotage the national economies of the world through their CoViD-19 bioweapon, their rigged PCR tests, draconian lockdowns, and their controlled media. And when it is over, the national currencies will be reset to zero and will be replaced by a worldwide digital currency and ‘lockchain’. We will be living in a cashless society, in which every transaction is tracked, and will bear a tattoo or mark just as has been prophesied over the past two millennia. Godspeed to you all as we enter the Tribulation. May we come through the long dark tunnel and safely exit on the other side. Imagine if everything we thought we saw was staged with no more validity than the fictions we see on television, not news in fact but fake news deliberately manufactured to gain our consent through problem-reaction-solution dialectics and strategy games? Imagine if we have been deceived, and the media was manipulating and goading us into thinking and feeling a certain way? The proof that the CoViD-19 plandemic and lockdown was planned is right in front of us. It has been carefully planned, orchestrated, and implemented as a smokescreen for something else. What they have done is create a false narrative to make ........................
ABSTRACT
Abstract: The study investigated the in-service training needs on Learning Delivery modalities of teachers in the Senior High Schools of Iba, Palauig and Botolan Districts of Department of Education, Division of Zambales, Philippines during the first quarter of the school year 2020-2021. This study was conducted in consideration of the changes in the Basic Education during the world health crisis or the COVI19 Pandemic. The present study used a descriptive research design with survey questionnaire as instrument for gathering of data from senior high school teacher-respondents and the statistical tools employed were descriptive and inferential statistics. Findings revealed that majority of the senior high school teachers are in their middle adulthood and holders of Bachelor’s degree with Master’s units. They highly need trainings for Learning Delivery Modalities the ‘new normal’ in the basic education primarily on the guidelines on blended learning design, on flexible learning for synchronous sessions, how to bridge the digital divide with offline learning methods and classroom preparations for blended learning designs. The result of the ANOVA computation revealed a no significant difference on the perceived extent of in-service training needs on Learning Delivery Modalities when grouped according to teachers’ age and highest educational attainment. The researcher recommends that the training plan/program for Learning Delivery Modalities, may consider the conduct of seminars, workshops, in-service trainings and learning action cells (LACs) sessions on the following themes or key areas: (a) blended learning design; (b) teachers’ classroom preparation for blended learning; (c) utilization of flexible learning through synchronous and asynchronous sessions; and (d) digital literacy for an improved teaching methods.

Based on the findings of the investigation conducted, availability and appropriate utilization of funds for school operation and regulations to support the safety and well-being of students were very critical education priorities identified. The availability and adequacy of technology infrastructure and efficient and effective ways of managing of technology infrastructure were very critical challenges which have to be implemented at school during the crisis. The availability of effective on-line learning support platform at school and sufficiency of internet bandwidth were very critical to support the utilization of digital devices and other learning delivery modalities. The results of analysis of variance computation revealed a no significant difference on the perception of the respondents on the education concerns that need immediate attention in response to the present health crisis or pandemic.
ABSTRACT
Abstract: Initial response to the outbreak and fast spread of the coronavirus (Covid-19) disease was very slow in most countries. Rightly, most efforts at understanding it turned to and concentrated on the medical field, and within a very short time, its economic impact gained a central place in ensuing discussions on the pandemic. Little attention was given to non-health related aspects like the social and psychological implications, the role of religious and other traditional believe systems in understanding and combating Covid-19. Even less thought was given to contribution of the latter factors and others in efforts at fighting its wide spread and measure at containing it. This paper takes the position that fighting the Covid-19 disease needs to be multifaceted in order to present a holistic affront on the dangers it possesses. The paper argues that creative artists have a key role to play in this fight and uses examples from Kenya to indicate that role. It discusses works of artists from different genres of literature, and brings their contribution to the fore. Aspects like the presentation of the pandemic, messages contained, and language used in weaving their art are looked at and their role presented. It concludes that creative artists’ role in society clearly goes beyond entertainment and calls for them to be included in various initiatives, spanning all sectors including sustainable development efforts and health related campaigns.
