Book Teacher Quality and Education Policy in India

Download or read book Teacher Quality and Education Policy in India written by Preeti Kumar and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-03-31 with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By drawing on quantitative data and qualitative analyses of five major national education policies implemented in India over the last 15 years, this comprehensive volume explores their impact on teacher quality and perceived effectiveness, explaining how this relates to variations in student performance. Responding to a national agenda to increase the quality of the Indian teacher workforce, Teacher Quality and Education Policy in India critically questions the application of human capital theory to Indian education policy. Chapters provide in-depth and strategically structured analyses of five national policies – including the recently approved National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 – to see how Indian policymakers use teacher quality as a driver and measurement of education and national economic development. Ultimately, the text offers evidence-based policy recommendations to improve teacher quality in India, suggesting that while all five policies have contributed significant frameworks and recommendations for teacher quality reform, they have failed to move beyond a symbolic function. Given its rigorous methodological approach, this book will be a valuable addition to the under-researched question of education policymaking in postcolonial contexts. It will be an indispensable resource not only for scholars working on policymaking in the Indian context, but also for those working at the intersection of education, teacher development, and policymaking in developing countries.

Abstract: Under the fine-tuning policy of the medium of instruction (MOI) for secondary school released by the Education Bureau in 2009, Hong Kong secondary schools are allowed the flexibility of using English as the MOI in not more than two subjects. Schools may also include English elements in other subjects as "extended learning activities." Under such practice, students at a lower banding may also have the chance of learning content subjects in English. This poses a challenge on both the students and the teachers. While weaker students may find it difficult to learn in a second language, the teachers also need to adopt new strategies to cater for the learner diversity thus created. In this case study of two mathematics teachers at a local secondary school, the writer sought to find out how teachers' perceptions of LAC practice have affected their pedagogical approach in the lesson, including the use of code switching, the level of language used and class activities, and as a result, the learning effectiveness of students. Through a series of lesson observations and interviews, it could be seen that the teacher who showed a higher degree of language awareness could better incorporate LAC practice in his lessons, which helped students learn more effectively and to a greater depth. Despite the teacher's claim that he did not believe he had a role to play in teaching students' English, language-learning elements were frequently observed in his lessons and he could adjust to the level at which even lower ability students could learn well. Based on the findings, the writer also shed light on some implications on adopting LAC or CLIL approaches in local content subject lessons. Subjects: Language and education - China - Hong Kong

Book The Rapid Rise and Transformational Trends of Private Tutoring

Download or read book The Rapid Rise and Transformational Trends of Private Tutoring written by Dr. Gyaneshwari Longjam and published by Notion Press. This book was released on 2022-04-25 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The private tuitions, earlier a scarce commodity with relatively less presence, have today transitioned to a new hybrid model with marked, subtle presence in Manipur. Interesting trends have emerged with the mushrooming centres occupying the center stage that has beautifully crafted a business-favourable working model, leveraging time-tested techniques and embracing technology advancement for a unique proposal and being latched upon by many aspirants. From a tightly coupled education system that had the rudimentary approach to now a more flexible, ambidextrous approach enabled by the private sector, the impact of change seems to be profound. What are these trends and what do they signify – a weakness in the system that needs to be fixed or a strength that is playing a pivot role in augmenting the existing infrastructure/setup? Are these trends unreal, or does the data suggest otherwise of a measurable impact the private tuitions have on the students, family, service providers and the education stream? Thought-provoking information backed by data, facts and figures will provide clarity on all aspects of private tuitions serving further as the backbone that helps formulate suggestions and recommendations. It further strengthens the objective to analyse and determine how these trends will impact society in the short/long term and provide insights on possible techniques to have healthy learning agility for students that is balanced, poised for success.

Book How Students Select Higher Secondary Schools  A Case Study in Kathmandu Valley  Nepal

Download or read book How Students Select Higher Secondary Schools A Case Study in Kathmandu Valley Nepal written by Ram Prasad Sharma and published by Anchor Academic Publishing (aap_verlag). This book was released on 2013-08 with total page 53 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The term education itself means 'to train', 'to lead out' and to 'bring up'. It is said that education is a life-long process, but the basic education that one undergoes during the formative years definitely contributes to the shaping of one's future and outlook. At this point, the school and high school education assumes importance. Even though the history of education in Nepal is relatively short, there has been a considerable growth in the number of educational institutes after the restoration of democracy in 1950 and particularly after 1990 AD. However, having no standard measuring rod to use when evaluating the institutes of higher education, students and parents have had trouble when selecting a college. Furthermore, beguiling advertisements make it impossible to decide which college is genuinely worth attending. Nowadays, it cannot be denied that numerous mediocre institutes exist which try to make a quick buck and cheat the students. This may not always be the case, but such incidents cannot be overlooked. Hence, this subject and possible solutions are analysed in this comprehensive study.
