TRAINING OF COUNSELLORS ON SICKLE-CELL DISORDERS IN AFRICA - Akinyanju, O. O.; Anionwu, Elizabeth (Lancet (British edition), 1989)
Falling infant and childhood mortality rates, especially in urban centres, have allowed greater survival of individuals with sickle-cell disorders (SCD), and the need to provide appropriate services has become pressing. The training and employment of counsellors on SCD, shown here to be popular and feasible, seems an essential first step towards the development of a community-based and appropriate policy for coping with SCD in Africa.

Relevance of Art in the Training of Creative Architects in Nigeria - Akogo, Benedict C. (Journal of Educational Technology Systems, 1989)
Most students of architecture in Nigeria do not have the ability to translate beautiful proposals into reality. Freehand sketches of design proposals are difficult and often they are completely absent in schools of architecture. Art is a form of mental development in terms of creativity, imagination and aesthetics. Architecture in Nigeria must have a heavy emphasis on art education if evolving an indigenous architecture is to become a reality. Details of the impact of art in the development of creative architects are discussed.

Education in prosthodontics: Britain, South Africa, and Australia. - Ar, MacGregor (PubMed, 1989)
The consultant in restorative density, Great Britain's closest equivalent to the prosthodontist in the United States, has a broad base of specialist training that includes periodontology, conservative dentistry, and prosthodontics. The dentist specialising only in prosthodontics is rare. British dental education has developed a curriculum that educates a dental provider to serve the needs of the British Health Service and as such has not emphasized prosthodontics as a separate discipline in either the undergraduate or graduate level.

Working and Teaching in Northern Nigeria - Determeyer, Suzanne (Physiotherapy, 1989)
Work in Nigeria covered a wider range of activities during two years than would be expected during a similar period in the UK. It was a challenging experience as well as being hugely educational. In many ways it is much harder to return to the UK when one's perspective on life and work has been altered as a result of this experience.

Changes in Attitude Toward Learning Hebrew in a South African Setting - Kraemer, Roberta; Zisenwine, David (Language Learning, 1989)
This study investigated attitudes toward second‐language learning over an extended period of time in a cross‐sectional design. Subjects were 1,252 children in Grades 4 through 12 studying Hebrew in a private Jewish school system in South Africa. Five sets of attitudes were measured: attitudes toward learning the language, traditional orientation, nationalist orientation, motivation, and self‐rating of proficiency. Results showed that attitudes decreased in positive value over the nine grade levels, although not always in totally linear fashion, supporting other research findings. The sharpest changes took place from Grades 4 through 9 while a less consistent pattern characterizes the high‐school years. The rate of decline was not equal for all attitude sets suggesting the need for different explanations to account for the variety of attitude patterns.

Does learning to read in a second language always put the child at a disadvantage? Some counterevidence from Morocco - Wagner, Daniel A.; Spratt, Jennifer E.; Ezzaki, Abdelkader (Applied Psycholinguistics, 1989)
ABSTRACT Researchers have gathered a variety of evidence to support the theory that learning to read in one's “mother tongue” or first language enhances a child's achievement relative to that of children obliged to learn to read in a second language. Evidence collected primarily in Europe and America has been applied by international organizations to support early mother-tongue education programs in many Third World countries. The data reported in this article suggest that a general application of this conclusion is not justified. The present article reports on a longitudinal study of literacy acquisition among 166 grade 1 children from a rural town in Morocco. Children in the sample came from two distinct linguistic communities (Moroccan Arabic and Berber), but lived in the same village, attended the same schools, and received literacy instruction in Arabic and subsequently French. The study also considered a number of background variables that might influence learning to read, such as Quranic preschooling experience, parental literacy, gender, and SES. Analyses showed that while there were significant differences in Arabic (first literacy) reading achievement between Berber- and Arabic-speaking groups in the first year of the study, such differences virtually disappeared by year 5. Quranic preschooling, also conducted in Arabic, was found to be a mediating influence on achievement in grade 1. Learning to read in French (second literacy) was unrelated to Berber or Arabic linguistic background, but highly related to reading achievement in Arabic, thus providing support for Cummins's (1979) “interdependence” hypothesis. Overall, the findings support the proposition that children in certain social and linguistic contexts need not be taught in their mother tongue in order to achieve literacy norms of the majority language group. These findings are discussed in terms of the context of language use and language prestige in the Moroccan setting, and in terms of their potential generalizability to other linguistic and cultural contexts.

Handicapping and genetic disorders in Zimbabwean institutions: a diagnostic survey. - Dl, Viljoen; Rt, Mossop (PubMed, 1989)
A diagnostic survey was undertaken in twelve Zimbabwean institutions for deaf, crippled and mentally handicapped individuals. A total of 1396 persons were evaluated of whom 885 were deaf, 356 physically disabled and 155 were mentally retarded. Acquired causes formed the largest aetiological group throughout the survey, but a high frequency of inherited crippling disorders was encountered (125 individuals). Down Syndrome accounted for almost one third of children with mental handicap. Undifferentiated autosomal recessive deafness was found in 87 persons, most of whom were from the Shona people.

School Psychology Related Research in South Africa - Donald, David (School Psychology International, 1989)
Within a brief description of the socio-political and structural context that constrains school psychology related research in South Africa, current issues and selected research themes are discussed. Three central issues are identified as the socio-political relevance of research, the issue of community participation in research and the issue of interventionist vs. analytic research. The first theme, research related to the needs of underdeveloped communities, deals with research into underachievement in the Black school system looked at through different conceptual frameworks as well as with a strong, new current of community/action research. The second theme deals with research on those issues that arise in the practice of school psychology in the particular South African social context. The third theme discusses research on testing and test development as undertaken by a statefunded organization and the problematic nature of this area of research. Finally other research themes on child abuse, psycho-legal questions and vocational choice are briefly reviewed.

Formal Operational Thought among African and Canadian College Students - Mwamwenda, Tuntufye S.; Mwamwenda, Bernadette B. (Psychological Reports, 1989)
The purpose of this study was to examine evidence for formal operational thought among Canadian and African college students, drawn from Edmonton, Canada and Umtata, Transkei, South African, who were tested on propositional and proportional reasoning. Both Canadian and African students surpassed the 75% criterion for propositional reasoning, whereas only Canadians attained the 50% success criterion on proportional reasoning. There was a cultural difference in favour of Canadians on performance of both tasks.

Parental Attitudes toward Female Education in Northern Nigeria - Niles, F. Sushila (The Journal of Social Psychology, 1989)
Abstract This study investigated parental attitudes toward educating females by interviewing rural/urban and male/female subjects drawn from three regions of northern Nigeria. These subjects were all parents with daughters of school-going age. The results indicate that, despite recent governmental efforts to universalize primary education, rural parents have unfavorable attitudes, especially concerning Western-style schooling for girls. A sample of urban women, however, strongly supported educating their daughters and had high aspirations both for their education and employment. This suggests that traditional, strong, negative attitudes concerning schooling for girls may respond to modernizing influences currently found only in urban centers in northern Nigeria.

Accidents/injuries of children in surgical admissions at the University Teaching Hospital in Lusaka, Zambia: a psycho-social perspective. - Peltzer, Karl (PubMed, 1989)
200 children (0-14 years) with an accident/injury at the surgical admission ward of the University Teaching Hospital in Lusaka were investigated by interviewing children and parents/relatives on especially psycho-social and environmental factors of the accidents. As a result, four major potential causes could be identified: (1) Lack of supervision by parent or teacher; (2) Environmental hazards; (3) Attention seeking and (4) Cultural conflict or lower socio-economic class. On this basis various preventive measures are proposed, on the lines of improving on psycho-social stressors and controlling environmental agents, taking a developmental perspective of the child into account.

Learning Styles of African American Children: A Review of the Literature and Interventions - Willis, Madge Gill (Journal of Black Psychology, 1989)
A review of theories, research, and models of the learning styles of Black children reveals that Black children generally learn in ways characterized by factors of social/affective emphases, harmony, holistic perspectives, expressive creativity, and nonverbal communication. Underlying these approaches are assumptions that Black Americans (African Americans) have been strongly influenced by their African heritage and culture, and that Black children's learning styles are different-but not deficient. Implications for interventions include recommendations for instructional interventions, curriculum organization, assessment, and suggestions for future research.

The training of district medical officers: a methodology tested in Senegal (Health Policy and Planning, 1989)
The training of Senegalese doctors is similar to that of doctors in developed countries. It does not prepare them well for the responsibilities of a district medical officer - a role of crucial importance to public health services and particularly to the optimal use of scarce resources. To compensate for this deficiency in training, the Thies project has developed a programme for teaching district medical officers already in service how to organize health delivery systems. This three-month programme consists of a series of modules aimed at finding solutions to frequently encountered health service delivery problems, followed by a period of on-going training in the form of supervision in the field. The objective of the course is twofold: to have an immediate impact on the quality of health service delivery; and to motivate the doctor in his work which, until now, has only required the use of his academic training in the area of clinical practice. This article describes the methodology used in the initial three-month stage of this training programme.

Rhetoric and reality in Nigerian science education: Observations of science teaching in Kano State Science Secondary Schools - Adamu, Abdalla Uba (International Journal of Educational Development, 1989)
This paper examines the interface between rhetoric and reality in the science curriculum reform in Nigeria. The focus of the analysis is the Science Schools Project established by the Kano State Government in 1977 as a scientific and technological manpower development strategy. The analysis of the teaching processes in both the specialist Science and Non-Science schools has revealed considerable similarities and often marginal differences. The differences between the Science and Non-Science schools may or may not be attributed to differences in the institutional context of teaching and learning science. But there is not enough evidence for this. By the virtue of their limited nature, these findings did not yield significant confirmation of the rationale that creating the Science Schools will solicit a more effective sequence of science teaching from the teachers. At the same time, the findings did not seriously challenge the rationale of setting up the Science Schools Project. However, they do question the implementation procedures of the project, and provide insights into the procedures to make such manpower strategies more effective.

Teaching English in Nigeria: The importance of the pragmatic and sociolinguistic context - Adegbija, Efurosibina (Language, Culture and Curriculum, 1989)
Abstract English is still taught in Nigerian universities more or less as it is taught in the English‐speaking world. The paper examines features of the pragma‐sociolinguistic context of English in Nigeria to suggest alternative models more adapted to the Nigerian context. Four features of the use of English in Nigeria are discussed: (1) the ambivalence in Nigerian attitudes to English, which is seen both as a prestigious international language and as a colonial language, (2) the lack of environmental support for English, which results in a long period of ‘interlanguage’ before standard Nigerian English is attained and a tendency towards fossilisation of learner forms, (3) the fact that Nigerian social norms, which can differ strikingly from those of Britain or America, must nonetheless be respected in Nigerian English usage, and (4) the distinctive system of registers in Nigerian English. The paper discusses these and other features of English as a second language in Nigeria and makes recommendations about the way it should be taught. In general, it is argued, there should be more teaching of English and less teaching about it.

Self-reported drug use among secondary school students in the Nigerian state of Ogun. - Adelekan, Moruf L. (PubMed, 1989)
A survey of drug use, based on a sample of 990 students in their fourth and final year of secondary school in the Abeokuta local government area of the State of Ogun in Nigeria was conducted by means of a self-report drug-use questionnaire in September 1986. There were 534 male and 377 female respondents. Their mean age was 16.4 and the majority (89 per cent) of them were from the lower or middle socio-economic levels. The most commonly used drugs were salicylate analgesics, mild stimulants, alcohol, antibiotics and diazepam. Low use was recorded for barbiturates, cannabis, organic solvents and cocaine, and there was no reported use of narcotic analgesics or hallucinogens. Females used diazepam significantly more than males. Most users had their first contact with drugs in primary school. The author stressed the need to develop a viable drug-abuse preventive programme and a comprehensive data base in Ogun.

Africanization or modernization? Historical origins of modern academical education in African initiative - Adick, Christel (1989)
Publications on the history of (formal) education in Africa are mostly based on reports issued from (mostly European) actors of the missionary and colonial education systems which were erected in the various colonies. In contrast, the article focuses early 19th century educational initiatives coming from Africans. Two personalities who were influential in West Africa are presented and their educational philosophies characterized: James African Beale Horton (1835-1883) called for a modernization-oriented education policy; whereas Edward Wilmot Blyden followed a pan-African culturalist philosophy. Both of them, however, stressed the need for academic institutions.

Body composition, energy, protein and iron intake of Nigerian female nursing students. - Ah, Cole; Io, Udekwe (PubMed, 1989)
100 apparently healthy female nursing students (aged 20-30 years) were studied. A 24 hours dietary recall was recorded. Additionally a questionnaire was elaborated to collect dietary parameters for 3 days. From the mean daily food intake the energy, protein and iron intake was calculated. A series of anthropometric measurements, i.e. body weight, body height and skinfold thickness (triceps, breast, scapula, abdomen) were used to determine total body fat, lean body mass, optimum weight, and relation weight. The mean total body fat of the 100 subjects was (21.3 +/- 5.1) % and (12.7 +/- 4.4) kg, respectively, the optimum weight (56.6 +/- 6.3) kg and the mean relative weight (101 +/- 12.4) %. 11% of the 100 subjects studied was underweight, 73% showed normal weight, 10% was overweight and 6% obese. All the age groups met their energy and protein requirements as well as the iron intake.

Reversible hearing impairment related to quinine blood concentrations in guinea pigs - Alván, Gunnar; Karlsson, K.; Villén, Tomás (Life Sciences, 1989)
The hearing ability was measured in anaesthetised guinea pigs by recording cochlear evoked potentials induced by standardised sound stimulation. The animals were given quinine intravenously and blood samples were withdrawn for assay of quinine. The shift in hearing threshold was closely related to the quinine blood concentration. The effect-concentration relationships were analysed according to the equation L = 10 (log k+a.log (s-b] which can be viewed as a special case of the Hill equation assuming that the stimulation (s) is of very low intensity compared to the stimulus at which half of the maximum response would be obtained and introducing an absolute limit for a stimulus at which no response is obtained.

"Outstanding Individuals do not Arise from Ancestrally Poor Stock": Racial Science and the Education of Black South Africans - Appel, Stephen (The Journal of Negro education, 1989)
A secondary yet important result of the student uprisings that occurred in South Africa in 1976 (and intermittently since 1980) has been the growth of research on racially segregated schooling.' Increasingly, political activists and progressive academics alike have come to realize the importance of uncovering the of apartheid while opposing apartheid itself. The cooperation of community groups and intellectuals in the History Commission of the National Education Crisis Committee has contributed to the development and popularization of a people's history, or a history from below, which relates the everyday struggles of ordinary people.2 There have also been historical analyses of the racist discourse peculiar to South Africa and the social construction of that discourse's knowledge and facts.3 The present study contributes to the latter area

Duration experience was found to be longer with the high trait anxiety than low trait subjects. However, the stress conditions shortened rather than lengthened duration experience. These findings were explained in terms of the ability of stress 10 both lengthen and shorten duration experiences, depending on the type and the inability of Nigerian students to appreciate time in seconds and minutes.

African-American Male Responsibility in Teenage Pregnancy: The Role of Education. - Battle, Stanley F. (Urban League Review, 1989)
After tracing the current educational and occupational status of adolescent fathers this article describes a number of community-based programs that were developed for these youth as well as for those who are not yet fathers. The programs are designed to empower adolescents to take charge of their lives and avoid early parenthood. The expected outcome of these programs is to enhance the self-esteem of these youth help them find meaning and value in the educational process and become responsible adults. The article concludes that male responsibility can be perpetuated if African-American adolescents are allowed to experience success at school and at work. In addition African-American adult males must provide social support for our youth by serving as role models. (authors)

IMPROVING TEACHING AND LEARNING IN AFRICAN UNIVERSITIES ‐‐ STAFF (FACULTY) DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMMES AS A FIELD OF CO‐OPERATION BETWEEN EUROPEAN AND AFRICAN UNIVERSITIES - Berendt, Brigitte (Higher Education in Europe, 1989)
In virtually all the countries of the world, the need for staff‐development programmes for university and other higher education teachers has been recognized. Because the developed countries of Europe and of North America have a head start in the domain, specialists from these countries have frequently been called upon to create and to offer staff‐development programmes in the universities of developing countries. This article discusses the appropriateness of European conceptions of staff‐development for African universities. Concluding that Euro‐centric staff‐developers and pre‐packaged European programmes are not appropriate, that they run the risk of becoming a form of cultural neo‐colonialism, the author considers ways in which European specialists can collaborate with their African colleagues in the structuring of staff‐development programmes that are not only African‐centred but are geared to the real needs of African universities as they are perceived by Africans themselves. If the author's suggestions are accepted, African universities will be able to make use of those aspects of European staff‐development concepts and programmes which have universal value without having to accept European cultural tutelage along with them.

Training evaluators in the third world: Implementation of the Action Training Model (ATM) in Kenya - Bhola, H. S. (Evaluation and Program Planning, 1989)
Training evaluators presents a challenge under any circumstances. In nonacademic settings in the Third World, evaluation training is specially problematic. Methods and models of evaluation training, currently in use, are found wanting in one way or another. The participatory training model, for example, is viewed as overly ideological. UNESCO's Operational Seminar is seen as over-emphasizing the experiential but de-emphasizing the conceptual. Other available models and approaches to evaluation training in Third World countries are also considered inadequate. The Action Training Model (ATM) was developed to overcome many of the problems identified in currently available approaches to evaluation training. The ATM focuses on internal evaluation, validates curriculum choices in each specific training context and has a built-in transfer of responsibility to local educational institutions. This paper describes the development and testing of the ATM within a project of evaluation training in Kenya, East Africa, covering 1979-89. The possibilities of ATM's adaptation and transfer to both academic and nonacademic settings in the U.S. and abroad are indicated.

The Process and Outcomes of Gender Bias in Elementary Schools: A Nigerian Case - Biraimah, Karen L. (Journal of Negro Education, 1989)
More Third World schools have become accessible to women in recent years, yet increasing parity in enrollment rates does not ensure equal educational experiences or opportunities for all children. Girls may achieve access to a variety of educational institutions, but they can still experience inequality through various inschool processes responsible for socialization and the inequitable distribution of knowledge. Eliou's work on the education of girls in the Ivory Coast, Upper Volta, and Senegal suggested that equality for girls is not simply dependent on access but on whether or not schooling is differentiated by gender.' She posited that girls are not only discriminated against in selection; once access to schooling is achieved, female students are exposed to even greater disadvantages through the differential distribution of knowledge in secondary school. Eliou stated that girls' eagerness to learn, gain qualification, and do creative work is usually stifled in the first cycle of secondary school, where they are relegated to a general education cycle or to technical education emphasizing clerical or home economics skills. The study reported here posits that this differential process is not simply a product of secondary education but may be established during the latter part of elementary school. As the study takes place in one of the better elementary schools in western Nigeria, the fact

Geochemical variation of Quaternary basaltic volcanics in the Turkana Rift, northern Kenya - Bloomer, Sherman H.; Curtis, Patchin C.; Karson, Jeffrey A. (Journal Of African Earth Sciences, 1989)
There are five Quaternary volcanic edifices along the axis of the Turkana Rift of northern Kenya. From north to south these are the Korath Range, North Island, Central Island, South Island and the Barrier. Each of these edifices occurs in a structurally distinct segment of the active Turkana Rift. Preliminary studies of these Quaternary volcanics show that crystalliquid differentiation is an important process in all centers, though there is evidence of magma mixing, multiple intrusive episodes and incorporation of earlier lava flows into younger eruptives. The least-fractionated lavas from each volcano have distinctive geochemical signatures, defined by Nb/Zr, Ba/Ti, Ba/Sr and similar ratios. The Korath Range is the most alkalic series, with high Nb/Zr and Ba/Ti. These differences are attributed in large part to melting of a veined mantle beneath the individual rift segments; assimilation of continental crust may be important in the North Island magmas. Elemental abundance patterns in the Korath Range and Central Range magmas are very similar to those for enriched or plume-type ocean ridge basalts. The source for these rift volcanics may not be fundamentally different than the veined mantle that has been postulated as the source for normal and enriched ocean-ridge basalts. Quaternary rift volcanism, much like volcanism along spreading ridges, is segmented both tectonically and chemically. Comparison of these five Quaternary centers to a few analyses of Tertiary lavas along the Turkana Rift indicate that magmas have been produced from similar sources and processes for most of the development of the rift, but that there is no persistence of a particular geochemical signature with time for each magmatic cell.

Domestic air pollution from biomass burning in Kenya - Boleij, J.S.M.; Ruigewaard, P.; Hoek, F.; Thairu, H.; Wafula, E M; Onyango, Francis; Koning, Henk de (Atmospheric environment, 1989)
Biomass fuels, mainly wood, are burned under often primitive and inefficient conditions by about half the world's population as the major source of domestic energy. In a rural area in Kenya, air pollution measurements were carried out inside dwellings during the rainy season in connection with a WHO epidemiologic survey to the incidence of acute respiratory infections among children aged below 5 years. Respirable particles and NO2 were found in the order of, respectively, 10 times higher (mean 1400 μg m−3) and as high (mean 180 μg m−3) as recommended air quality guidelines for the general population. Also the levels of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons were very high. No relation could be detected between the number of acute respiratory infection episodes of the children and indoor air quality. This could be explained by the fact that the concentrations were very homogeneously distributed among the population.

Library and information education in Algeria : a framework for curriculum development - Boumarafi, Behdja (1989)
We live in an era characterised by the explosion of information. As societies are becaning more and more dependent on information, not only for the generation of knowledge but also for the generation of revenues, it is imperative that each society develops its own information infrastructure. Such development depends to a great extent on the availability of qualified library and information staff. These should be well trained and equipped with the proper knowledge, skills and attitudes to engage in library and information development programmes. Good training requires, among other facilities, an efficient library education system and a relevant curriculum. The intention of this study is to provide a framework for approaching curriculum development in Algerian library schools. Included is an overview of the process of curriculum development as seen through a review of the literature, and a look at different approaches to curriculum development and how curriculum design and planning has changed over the years. In surveying library education programmes in Algeria it was found that arrong other findings there is strong evidence of the lack of qualified teachers and poor teaching/learning facilities to attempt innovations in the curriculum. These issues are examined in the light of accepted standards in order to establish contrasting features, and measure the adequacy of library education in Algeria. The study reviews curriculum developnent activity in the Algerian general education system with emphasis on library education. It brings to attention the essential facts necessary for understanding the environmental factors which led to the current problems and tensions in the Algerian library and information scene.

Language attitudes and their implications for education: Morocco as a case study - Bouzidi, Hassan (1989)
The purpose of this dissertation is to investigate Language Attitudes in three representative areas of Morocco. The impact of these attitudes on the individual's socio-psychological make up, especially within the system of education, is examined and emphasis is put upon the relationship between students' and parents' attitudes on the one hand and achievement in second-language learning on the other hand. The working hypothesis is that it helps learners of a second language, who wish to hve a good command of the language, to hold a positive attitude towards the other speech community. By adopting a socio-psychological approach, I seek to examine my subjects' affective as well as behavioural dispositions and the impact of the latter on any language planning programme. By so doing I intend to contribute to the search for a most suitable approach to language-rleated problems in Morocco. To achieve this purpose, a group of workers, students and teachers volunteered to fill out questionnaires on their evaluations of languages and language planning efforts in Morocco. Others volunteered to take part in the matched-guise experiments and interviews concerning their use of language and their desire to learn a second language. The attitude-behaviour relationship was also examined through observation, including participant observation. The subjects were stratified according to age, sex, mother tongue, social status and provenance. The first three substantive sections of the dissertation aim at familiarising the reader with the sociolinguistic situation in Morocco, social psychology as applied to language studies, and the data-eliciting techniques used in the thesis. The subsequent three chapters are concerned with the analysis and discussion of the corpus of data. The results showed significant differences between the attitudes of the groups towards French, SA and the vernacular languages (i.e. MA and MB). The correlation analysis showed a negative relationship between grades and the attitude variables. Only a weak relationship was found between socio-psychological variables and second-language proficiency. Attitudinal and motivational characteristics obtained from the students' parents were included in the study, and a positive correlation between student language proficiency and parental language attitudes and motivation was obtained.

Iodine deficiency disorders in Zimbabwe. No change in prevalence of endemic goitre in Wedza District, as shown by school surveys carried out 18 years apart. - Ch, Todd; Laing, Richard; Cs, Marangwanda; Mushonga, N.G.T. (PubMed, 1989)
Goitre prevalence surveys were carried out in 1986 in five primary schools in Wedza District and the results compared with those obtained from the same schools in 1968. Overall, goitre prevalence was 73 percent and there had been no significant change since 1968. In 1986 the visible goitre rate was 14 percent. Goitre was more common in girls on both occasions. Evidence (though not conclusive) of milder forms of endemic cretinism was found. The need for a nationwide iodination programme is emphasised.

Readability of subject texts: Implications for ESL teaching in Africa - Chimombo, Moira (English for Specific Purposes, 1989)
In this paper, we will explore, through a narrative-semiotic lens, how 32 Edwardian (1901–1914) celebrities style the ‘self’ in their pictorial bookplates. Using Zhao and Zappavigna, 2018a, Zhao and Zappavigna, 2018b, Zhao and Zappavigna, 2020, Ross and Zappavigna, 2020 typology of selfies as a starting point and drawing upon aspects of Bamberg and Georgakopoulou’s (2008) positioning analysis, we will embed users’ visual arrangements and narrative stance-taking elements in ethnohistorical insights gathered from archival research. Grounding these choices in evidence from their original sociohistorical context of creation will demonstrate that, like selfies, pictorial bookplates are dynamic multimodal ensembles that enable users to construct multiple identities and achieve different communicative goals. However, it will offer a more nuanced perspective into the relationship between ‘new’ and ‘old’ media, suggesting that, despite the similar forms and functions of pictorial bookplates and selfies, their creation is guided by different ideological values and bounded by the affordances, norms and traditions of the time. The methodology and findings presented in this paper will contribute to the growing body of transhistorical research that is concerned with situating communication technologies in the wider history of technologically mediated change.

Form IV Cambridge School Certificate, Pupils' Aspirations in Zimbabwe - Chivore, B. R. S. (Journal of Education Policy, 1989)
This article is based on two major studies. One study was carried out in 1985 and the other in 1987. The discussion examines Form IV Cambridge School Certificate pupils' aspirations in Zimbabwe with special reference to the post‐independence period. Among the main factors said to determine pupils' aspirations, highlighted in the study include: the class structures of scoiety, parents' occupations, gender, the urban‐rural dichotomy and the type of schools attended. Pupils' aspirations for a developing country such as Zimbabwe have implications for the country's education policies. These implications are in areas such as the expansion of educational provisions, universal primary education, material provision, educational costs, manpower supply and demand and entry into the University. As far as cost implications are concerned, there is debate in Zimbabwe as to whether the country can afford free and compulsory primary education given limited resources. At the same time limited resources have affected the quality of education. This article attempts to give suggestions as to what education policy makers could do to improve upon the situation.

The higher education paradox in African development planning - Colclough, Christopher (International journal of educational development, 1989)
This paper examines the proposition that higher education in Sub-Saharan Africa is over-expanded. The commonly advanced external efficiency reasons for its advocacy are found unconvincing. Important internal inefficiencies, however, have been generated by post-independence patterns of educational expansion. In consequence, a paradox is identified: under some social and economic circumstances, a faster rate of expansion of higher education can exacerbate existing skill shortages in the labour market. This hypothesis is tested using data from Botswana which are compared with similar data for the region as a whole. The analysis demonstrates that, whilst Botswana displays some of the expected symptoms of over-expansion, the paradox does not explain their appearance. Nevertheless the analysis shows that the country is something of an exception in Africa, and a prima facie case is established for the view that this ‘higher education paradox’ now faces planners in a number of countries—in the region— particularly so in the poorer countries with severe adjustment burdens.

Geochemistry of volcanic rocks from the Nsuze Group, South Africa: arc-like volcanics in a 3.0 Ga-old intracratonic rift - Crow, Clay; Condie, Kent C.; Hunter, D.R.; Wilson, A. H. (Journal Of African Earth Sciences, 1989)
The Nsuze Group (∼3000 Ma) in South Africa is comprised of volcanics and sediments that rest unconformably on older continental crust. Nsuze volcanics, which range in composition from basalt to rhyolite and include a significant proportion of andesites, have tholelitic to calc-alkaline geochemical affinities. Incompatible element distributions in Nsuze volcanics are similar to those in volcanics associated with continental-margin arcs and exhibit a typical subduction zone component (SZC) (enrichment in LILE and relative to Nb-Ta). The volcanics can be related to each other by shallow fractional crystallization of average Nsuze basalt, together with up to 10% assimilation of granite with a composition similar to that of the underlying Mpuluzi granite. Geological data are consistent with an origin for the Nsuze Group in an intracratonic rift. The SZC in Nsuze volcanics may have been inherited from an older subcontinental lithospheric source.

Impaired Fertility in Tropical Africa - Doenges, Catherine Elspeth; Newman, James L. (Geographical Review, 1989)
Birthrates in tropical Africa are among the highest in the world, but many zones in the region have below-norm fertility. Proximate determinants are the framework used to explain the occurrence of these zones. Of greatest significance are factors that affect duration of postpartum amenorrhea, incidences of sterility and spontaneous intrauterine abortions, and frequency of intercourse. POPULATION is growing more rapidly in tropical Africa than in any other principal world region. The average rate of natural increase there is 2.9 percent, contrasted with 2.7 percent in the Middle East and 2.6 percent in Central America, the regions with the next-highest rates. Although recent events such as famines, the AIDS epidemic, and the recrudescence of malaria have underscored the hazards to human survival in tropical Africa, mortality has fallen significantly since 1950. At the same time, fertility remains high and is increasing in some places. Total fertility rates range from 6.0 to 8.0 for tropical African countries and rise above 9.0 in portions of western Kenya. Few large populations have equaled these figures for appreciable lengths of time. Within this general pattern of high fertility are areas characterized by markedly lower total fertility rates, from 2.0 to 5.0 (Fig. 1). The most prominent of these areas lies near the equator and runs without interruption from southwestern Sudan through the Central African Republic and deep into adjacent Zaire; a second important zone covers most of Cameroon and Gabon. Other noteworthy occurrences of low fertility have been recorded in the Lake Victoria region and are scattered across the savanna-sahel belt of western Africa, as well as among the San peoples of Botswana and Namibia, for various nomadic pastoral groups, in parts of highland Ethiopia, and along the eastern coast from southern Kenya to central Tanzania. This pattern of low fertility is based on evidence obtained from several sources, including census-derived estimates on total fertility rates and childlessness levels for all of Africa south of the Sahara and surveys and estimates of total fertility rates for the equatorial zone only.1 The available evidence, however, points to a strong ethnic component in the distribution; quite often, lowand high-fertility populations are found living side by side.2 We thus 1 0.

A Canadian Approach To Drought Monitoring For Famine Relief in Africa - Dyer, James A. (Water International, 1989)
ABSTRACT Poor water supply is the dominant issue in African agriculture. A project aimed at reducing the impact of drought onfood supply levels in Africa is described. The result was a computer software package for analysis of monthly rainfall records which can be operated on a desktop computer. Referencing of current weather analysis results against historical expectations was a major part of the system design. Another feature was to combine current records with climate normals to project mid-rainy season growing conditions to post-harvest crop estimates. A simple simulation model is used to relate rainfall records to evapotranspirationpotential to generate crop water use and soil moisture reserve estimates. Initial scale of application was the entire African continent, but a downsized version has been produced for Zambia. Similar versions could be produced for other countries. The overall project proposed a multi-disciplinary approach to monitoring, in which the weather based system described here is only one component. Satellite technology is a key link to this system. Other applications of the system include both training and long-term planning as well as crop marketing support.

What language should be used for teaching?: Language policy and school reform in Burundi - Eisemon, Thomas Owen; Prouty, Robert; Schwille, John (Journal of Multilingual and Multicultural Development, 1989)
Abstract This paper examines language of instruction policies in primary schools in Burundi where French is used for teaching in grades five and six and for administration of the concours national which selects students for admission to secondary schools. The present language policy, adopted in 1973, has been implemented in the context of dramatic increases in school enrolment achieved chiefly through the introduction of double shifts that have shortened the teaching schedule. Classroom observations, interviews with teachers and school directors and information obtained from testing grade six students in three primary schools as well as school leavers in the school catchment areas indicate that the use of French: (1) seriously distorts the programme of studies making it difficult for teachers to cover the syllabus, resulting in the neglect of agriculture and other practical subjects; (2) encourages teaching practices oriented to French vocabulary building rather than to enhancing understanding of academic subjects; and (3) while present policies may be effective in developing students’ literacy skills in French as well as in the mother tongue, school leavers who do not go on to secondary school do not maintain functional literacy in French. Attention is given to strategies for improving the teaching of French while reducing its importance in the school curricula and expanding instruction in the mother tongue and practical studies which were the objectives of the 1973 reform.

Eroding Economy, Declining School Quality: The Case of Malawi - Fuller, Bruce (IDS Bulletin, 1989)
Since 1980 harsh economic factors have hit Malawi: periodic drought and subsequent decline in crop output, falling world prices for export commodities, and an ever heavier debt burden. How have these economic shocks touched children and schools? This article shows how Malawi's protracted period of adjustment temporarily towered school enrolment, as rural families drew on their children's labour to backstop erosion of subsistence and surplus production. But this slowing of school expansion was short lived. Popular demand for primary education rebounded strongly, far outpacing the government's limited fiscal capacity to build more schools and train more teachers. African states, facing hostile economic conditions, can try to accommodate rising school enrolments — thereby extending ‘opportunity’ and legitimating the government's own authority. The resulting decline in school quality, however, is severe as static levels of resources are spread over a burgeoning number of children. Under such tight resource constraints, inequities between levels of schooling remain politically difficult to address.

Prevalence of the sickle cell trait among students in a physical education college in Côte-d'Ivoire. - Gallais, Daniel Le; Lonsdorfer, J.; Fabritius, H.; Bogui, Pascal; Sangaré, A.; Cabannes, R (PubMed, 1989)
The prevalence of sickle cell trait (SCT), was studied in 263 students enrolled in a physical education college in Côte-d'Ivoire. Most of the students were athletes of average training level, but some competed at an international level. The prevalence of SCT (hemoglobin AS), observed in the student population (13.7%) was not significantly different from that of the general population (12%) of Côte-d'Ivoire and did not differ between sexes. The percentage of international level athletes was similar in SCT (25%) and control (hemoglobin AA) groups (25.7%). Particular activities practised by SCT international level athletes were individual track events (sprint race, 400 m race and long and high jump) as well as team sports (football and handball), indicating the excellent aptitude for aerobic and anaerobic metabolic activities. As none of the international athletes engaged in endurance activities, no conclusions can be drawn regarding either the aptitude of SCT subjects for intense and prolonged exertion or a possible limitation of oxygen transport produced by their hemoglobinopathy.

Oxygen-isotope zonation of agates from Karoo volcanics of the Skeleton Coast. Namibia - Hannrs, Crrms (1989)
Ansrnacr Oxygen-isotope profiles through six agates from Sarusas, in the Skeleton Coast Park, Namibia, show that 6180 varies from 20.4Vm to 28.98@. These values are consistent with low temperatures of formation. Systematic differences in Dr8O exist between coarsely crystalline quartz (Q) bands and microcrystalline quartz (MQ) zones within the same agate, with the Q zones being, on average, 37- lighter than MQ zones. This difference is consistent with the crystallization of Q zones from HrO vapor and MQ zones from HrO liquid at about 120 C. Boiling hydrous fluids at pressuresjust higher than I atm should be expected at shallow levels in a cooling lava pile. A temperature of formation of 120'C requires that the depositing fluids were enriched in '8O relative to present-day meteoric waters. Enrichment of meteoric fluid in r80 probably occurred as the result of prolonged boiling and loss ofvapor rather than exchange with the host Karoo volcanics.

National Drought Impact Monitoring: a NOAA NDVI and Precipitation Data Study of Ethiopia - Helldén, Ulf; Eklundh, Lars (1989)
This is a study on the potential of NOAA satellite data for operational early warning and food security monitoring at a national level. Ethiopian NOAA NDVI 15-day composites (1981-1985) are analysed and compared to precipitation data including time series records from more than 200 stations. Anomaly analyses are introduced and the regional distribution of the 1984 drought is clearly identified. A strong relationship betwen satellite vegetation index anomalies and precipitation anomalies is demonstrated. It is concluded that NOAA NDVI GAC data can be used as an essential input to a national early warning and food security monitoring system if restricted to the drylands of Ethiopia.

The initial responses were, first, borrowing and, second, severe cuts in government expenditure, In mid 1986, the currency was significantly depreciated. This increased domestic currency government revenues but substantially increased the cost of imports. This article documents the effects of economic policies on resources for education, concentrating on primary and university education. The impact of these policies is then discussed. Resume I CRISE DANS LE DOMAINE ECONOMIQUE ET DE L'EDUCATION: ETUDES DE CAS LOCALES Austerité économique, ajustement structurel et éducation: le cas du Nigeria Récemment, et jusqu'en 1982, l'économie du Nigeria était caracterisée par de hauts taux de croissance et des revenus gouvernementaux élevés. Puis les revenus pétroliers diminuèrent de moitié en un an, et de nouveau en 1986. Les réactions initiales furent tout d'abord un emprunt, puis en second lieu, une réduction importante des dépenses gouvernementales. Courant 1986, la monnaie fut considérablement dévalorisée. Cela entraina la hausse des revenus gouvernementaux en monnaie locale, mais augmenta aussi remarquablement le coût des imports. Cet article documente les effets des mesures économiques vis-a-vis des ressources à disposition pour l'éducation, en se concentrant particulièrement sur l'enseignement primaire et universitaire. Ensuite, il présente un débat sur l'importance de ces mesures. Resumen I CRISIS ECONÓMICA Y CRISIS EDUCACIONAL. ESTUDIO DE CASOS NACIONALES Austeridad económica, ajuste estructural y educación. El caso de Nigeria En los años inmediatemente previos a 1982 la economía nigeriana se caracterizó por altas tasas de crecimiento de divisas e ingreso gubernamental. Los ingresos del petróleo se redujeron a la mitad en dos oportunidades, en el año siguiente y nuevamente en 1986. Las reacciones iniciales fueron sucesivamente endeudamiento y severa reducción en el gasto público. En 1986 la moneda nacional fue fuertemente devaluada lo que incrementó tanto el ingreso gubernamental en moneda nacional como el costo de las importaciones. Este artículo examina los efectos de las políticas económicas sobre los recursos educacionales, especialmente los vinculados a la primaria y universitaria. Se discute el impacto de estas políticas.

The Response from the Grassroots: Self-reliance in Zambian Education - Hoppers, Wim (IDS Bulletin, 1989)
SUMMARY This article examines the effects of the current economic crisis on education in Zambia, and argues that the crisis has mobilised a remarkable amount of energy among parents, administrators and teachers, which has, paradoxically, helped to implement the recommendations of the Educational Reform document of 1977. Innovations such as production work in schools, teachers’ direct participation in efforts to improve the quality of education and the greater involvement of the community in school construction and maintenance have all challenged the government to introduce greater delegation of decision- making, in the interests of both efficiency and self-reliance. Resume La réponse de la base: l'autonomie du systeme éducatif zambien Cet article examine les effets de la crise économique sur l'éducation en Zambie, et affirme que la crise a mobilisé un intérêt et une volonté remarquables des parents, administateurs et enseignants, contribuant paradoxalement à la mise en place des recommendations faites par le document de la réforme de l'enseignement de 1977. Des innovations telles que la production à l'école, la participation directe des professeurs pour améliorer la qualité de l'enseignement, et un plus grand engagement de la communauté à construire et entretenir des écoles ont poussé le gouvernement à déléguer leurs pouvoirs, au profit de l'efficacité et de l'autonomie. Resumen La respuesta de las bases. Autoconfianza en la educación en Zambia Este artículo examina los efectos de la actual crisis económica sobre la educación en Zambia, argumentando que la crisis ha mobilizado un considerable esfuerzo de los padres, administradores y profesores, lo que paradójicamente ayudó a implementar las recomendaciones de la Reforma Educacional de 1987. Innovaciones tales como el trabajo productivo en las escuelas, la participación directa de los profesores para mejorar la calidad de la educación y la mayor participación de la comunidad en la construcción y mantención de escuelas han desafiado al gobierno a intensificar la delegación de toma de decisiones en interés tanto de la eficiencia como de la autoconfianza.

Some trends in distance education in Africa: An examination of the past and future role of distance education as a tool for national development - Jenkins, Janet (Distance Education, 1989)
Distance education figures prominently among strategies recently proposed to assist African countries escape from educational crisis. Africa has already made considerable use of distance education to extend access to formal education, although most public institutions have often been severely constrained by lack of finance and manpower. Case studies of Zambia, Kenya and Zimbabwe suggest that critical factors for the effectiveness of distance education are the provision of adequate resources and firm political backing. It is probable that distance education will continue to be used to strengthen formal education by training primary teachers, extending access to secondary education and by providing tertiary education although, so far, few African countries have attempted degree level studies at a distance. In order for all these programmes to be effective, more resources must be forthcoming and integration of distance education with the formal system is desirable. Otherwise distance education may remain at the periphery, its potential under‐used.

Quiet after the storm: continuity and change in the cultural and political development of Zimbabwe - Kaarsholm, Preben (African languages and cultures, 1989)
changes: at the end of 1987 the special parliamentary representation which had been given transitionally to the white minority under the Lancaster House agreement was removed; the power of government was concentrated by making Robert Mugabe 'executive president'; and decisive steps were taken towards the creation of a one-party system through the amalgamation of the two major political parties in the country, ZANU-PF and PF-ZAPU, and through the incorporation into the cabinet of representatives of PF-ZAPU and Matabeleland. Through these initiatives national leaders claim to have strengthened the unity of society and to have removed important obstacles for the realisation of socialist development objectives. At the same time, the united governing party is being challenged by criticism of the one-party constitution plans. Edgar Tekere's populist Zimbabwe Unity Movement (ZUM) has done well in recent by-elections, and an increasing radical student movement and, unexpectedly, the press led by the Bulawayo Chronicle have attacked the spread of corruption and moral decay within Zimbabwean politics. The ZANU-PF elite in particular has been shaken by the so-called 'Willowgate' affair and the revelations of the Sandura Commission, and it is now an open question which type of economic and social development will actually be promoted during the next few years within the socialist rhetoric. Will a one-party-governed Zimbabwe experience a frustrating slide in the direction of an ever more meaningless, traditionally embellished 'African socialism', growing corruption and increasingly uninhibited display of self-seeking power, while at the same time preserving the basic colonial features of its economy and social structure? Or will democratic reforms clear the way for the removal of bases of regional power, for increased participation, initiative and influence at a local level and for intensified articulation of conflicting interests and needs, founded in those sharp

Infant Mortality in Lesotho: Parental Education and Demographic Factors - Kaduuli, Stephen (Social Science Research Network, 1989)
This study is an examination of effects of parental education and demographic factors on infant mortality in Lesotho, based on the 1977 Lesotho Fertility Survey. The study showed that infant mortality, despite an erratic trend, fell over time. Although the female population of Lesotho was better educated than the male population, paternal education appeared to be more important in infant survival than maternal education. Children born to mothers aged less than 20 and between 30-34 appeared to have lower chances of survival than children born to mothers of other ages. Fourth or higher birth orders faced a higher risk of mortality than the lower birth orders. However, high death rates were not caused by birth order per se, but because mothers gave birth at early ages whereas others started child bearing at relatively older ages. The study also showed that children born less than 24 months after their preceding siblings faced higher risk of mortality than those born after a 24 month interval. Differences in infant mortality by sex were not statistically significant.

The effect of wifes education on the tempo of fertility in Egypt and Sudan. - Khalifa, Mona; Nagieb, MA (1989)
Data from the Sudan Fertility Survey of 1979-80 and the Egyptian Fertility Survey of 1980 were used to study the effect of wifes education on the timing of birth intervals. Multivariate analysis was performed using the proportion of women with a birth within a specified duration as the dependent variable and the following as independent variables: 1) the age of the woman at the start of the interval 2) the length of the previous interval 3) the survival status of the birth initiating the interval within 12 months of the birth 4) the period 5-20 years before the survey 5) urban or rural residence 6) wifes education and 7) husbands education. General examination of the overall pattern in both countries of birth spacing for the transition to the second fourth and sixth births revealed that the transition slows as parity increases and is slower among educated women at all parities. Exceptions were found in the Sudan where women with no education were relatively slow to proceed to the second birth and women with some education proceeded to the second birth at a faster pace. Age did not greatly affect birth interval in either country. Women with short previous birth intervals continued to have short intervals. Women who lost a the child initiating the interval also had shorter intervals. When all other socioeconomic variables are controlled differences in timing of birth intervals continue to be seen between educated and noneducated women but the differences are reduced. It is concluded that family planning efforts should be directed to noneducated Egyptian women and to all Sudanese women in order to extend birth intervals.

African music, education and the school curriculum - Kwami, Robert (1989)
This is an investigation into the potentiality of Integrating some West African musics into the curriculum of Schools in Ghana and Nigeria. The Thesis can be divided into two major questions: viz, what is distinctive about some traditional forms of African music that might be helpfully transposed into Western school curricula; and, are there features in the cultural transmission of west African music that could function as an alternative to the usual procedures and practices of schooling (in Ghana and Nigeria) There are four parts to the work. In Part One, some pertinent research questions are posed: (1) What is African about some Ghanaian and Nigerian musics? (2) How is African music structured? (3) What is the position of hybrid or syncretic musics In some weast African cultures? (4) What systems, processes and procedures are discernible in traditional African music education? (5) What is the nature of enculturation as an educational process in traditional African communities? (6) Does schooling have a distinctive role and will this be different in Ghana and Nigeria (7) What is the nature and function of schools? (8) Does the school curriculum favour Western rather than African musics? (9) What African music procedures can be taken into the curriculum and how can this be done at appropriate levels? The illuminative middle parts (Parts Two and Three) are specifically about categories, procedures, and the transmission of some west African music. In the final part, there is an application of a West African music classification to the school curriculum, and a discussion about the teaching of Ghanaian drumming.

The effects of single-sex schooling on student achievement and attitudes in Nigeria - Lee, Valerie E. Lockheed (1989)
This study of Form Three (ninth grade) students in Nigeria indicates that single sex schools improve girls' achievement in mathematics and engender less stereotypic ideas about mathematics. But Nigerian males experience lower achievement and hold a more stereotypic view of mathematics under single sex schooling. Why are there different responses? In part, differences between the types of students attending single-sex and coeducational schools may be responsible. Girls' schools also differed from boys schools in several important ways. While these and other differences beween students and schools were found to contribute to differences in student achievement, a statistically significant residual effect for single-sex schools remained after adjustments were made, suggesting that other organizational or student background factors may account for the observed differences in effects.

Teaching quality and student achievement in Africa: The case of Nigeria and Swaziland - Lockheed, Marlaine E.; Komenan, A.G. (Teaching and Teacher Education, 1989)
This paper uses ordinary regression and multi-level analytic techniques to examine the effects of schools, teachers, and teaching processes on enhancing grade 8 mathematics achievement in Nigeria and Swaziland. A significant proportion of variance in student achievement (24% in Nigeria and 16% in Swaziland) was attributable to between-classroom/school factors. School size, class size, and length of the school year had no effect on student achievement, but teaching processes were important in both countries. However, patterns of effects differed between the two countries, suggesting caution be taken in making generalizations about the nature of effective mixes of inputs.

Scanning electron microscopy of feldspar and volcanic glass weathering and neoformation of clay minerals in a quaternary paleosol sequence, Mount Kenya, East Africa - Mahaney, William C.; Vortisch, Walter (Journal Of African Earth Sciences, 1989)
Volcanic glass, feldspar, magnetite, quartz, and trace amounts of other minerals (e.g. nepheline, biotite, amphibole) are the detrital components of the 63–250 μm sand fractions of the samples studied. Halloysite/metahalloysite, showing fibrous, tubular, platey and nodular shapes, and gibbsite (essentially nodular) occur as important weathering products. They formed essentially through weathering of volcanic glass reflecting the high precipitation and low evapotranspiration expected in a tropical bamboo forest as well as great amounts of time. Feldspar weathering occurs mainly as dissolution etching. The distribution of gibbsite and halloysite/metahalloysite are interpreted with regard to the paleoclimatic conditions under which the paleosols developed during pre-Teleki and Teleki/Liki interglacial periods.

A review was made of the 50 eruptions since 1930 at 16 volcanoes in Papua New Guinea to summarize the available information on precursory activity. The data show that a variety of seismic, ground deformation, thermal and chemical precursors have occurred at many of the volcanoes. Seismic precursors were the most commonly reported (11 cases), and for volcanoes that were instrumented with seismometers, seismic precursors were identified for 8 of 14 eruptions. The occurrence of felt earthquakes before eruptions appeared more often at the volcanoes that had not been active for more than 50 years and had higher silica compositions.

A Strategy for Power: Commissions of Inquiry into Education and Government Control in Colonial Zimbabwe - Mungazi, Dickson A. (International Journal of African Historical Studies, 1989)
An important dimension of the educational process in colonial Zimbabwe is the influence which the commissions appointed to inquire into education had on government policy and control, and on church-state relationships. Between 1908 and 1974, the colonial government appointed commissions to investigate some problems in education and submit their reports, presumably to enable it to design policies which could help in designing an adequate educational policy for national development. But a study of what came out of the reports of these commissions leads to a different conclusion, and that is, that the government used these reports to enhance its power to control, not only education, but also society itself.
