The development of education in the Anglophone provinces of Cameroon during British administration 1919-1960 - MacOjong, Tabot Timothy (1980)
The purpose of this study is to explore and assess the development of education in the Anglophone Provinces of Cameroon, during British Administration under the League of Nations Mandate and the United Nations Trusteeship, 1919 to 1960. The introductory Chapter I provides an overview, nature, organisation and methodology of the study. In Chapter II, a historical background of the beginning of westernisation of the Cameroons is provided; it covers the period beginning with the arrival of European traders and missionaries to the end of German Administration in 1918. Although British Administration was only introduced in 1919, British influence, through its anti-slave trade activities at the Atlantic coast, the widespread use of pidgin” English and the pro-British disposition of the natives was omnipresent and potent, between 1844 and 1918. The mistake of Germany in 1914-18 ultimately gave to Britain a slice of the territory which had been a bone of contention. Consequently, German educational system was replaced by that of the British. Chapter III provides a geographical and cultural framework within which the new system began operating in 1922. Throughout the text, these factors are shown to have impinged on the expansion and extension of education. – In Chapter IV, the examination of the introduction of British colonial education policy is shown to have emerged only as a response to the recommendations from the studies of the state of education in West Africa by the Phelps-Stokes Commission in 1920-21. Although the Cameroon Province was not a British colony, the recommendations applied to it through its joint administration with Nigeria. Chapter V surveys the development of educational institutions. – The educational system developed in the territory was a hybrid of government and voluntary agency schools, with the Missionary Societies bearing a greater burden; the same partnership also existed with regard to teacher training institutions, examined in Chapter VI. The status of the teacher, except for the government teacher, was synonymous with penury and poverty. In Chapter VII, the curriculum and methods of teaching in these schools are examined. As revealed in it, the primary school curriculum was influenced by the philosophy of education for the Negroes in the South of the United States, that of teacher training institution was determined largely by the primary school curriculum, and that of the secondary and the trade school was determined by School Certificate examinations of London and Cambridge Universities and the London City and Guilds Examinations respectively. – The examination of educational finance in Chapter VIII shows the main sources to have been government grants-in-aid, school fees and education rates and contributions from the home boards of Missionary Societies. In mass and cultural education, Chapter IX reveals that it lagged behind formal education except in the plantations of the Cameroons Development Corporation. Outside the C.D.C. plantations, literacy was characterised by laissez-faire. There was emphasis on community, leadership and citizenship education. Chapter X is a summary and conclusion of the study. The development of education in the Anglophone Provinces during British Administration was largely determined by the mandate and trusteeship system of the League of Nations and the United Nations; it was overshadowed by the joint administration with Nigeria. The relative balance in the lopsided educational development between Nigeria and the Southern Cameroons, where a replica of the British education system was firmly established by 1960, was ensured by the Missionary Societies.

National Development and Higher Education in Ghana - McCain, James A. (Journal of Negro Education, 1980)
Institutionsof higher education in Ghana are, essentially, elitist in nature. Certain traditional linkages with British models of university operation account for this condition and help contribute to what has been commonly referred to as the elite-mass gap. The purposes of this essay are to (1) briefly assess the role which these institutions of higher education are capable of playing in Ghana with respect to national development schemes; (2) analyze the structures through which such contributions are possible; (3) note behavioral trends in the activities of students and government officials which may account for the degree of enthusiasm demonstrated for developmental goals; and (4) suggest ways in which future development strategies and goals may be facilitated by university-based resources.

Student eating patterns at the University of Ghana† - Moss, Gwenna; Opare‐Obisaw, Clara (Ecology of Food and Nutrition, 1980)
Interviews were conducted with 140 male and 5 8 female resident students at the University of Ghana for the purposes of describing eating patterns, assessing diet adequacy, and determining opinions of the “Pay As You Eat” system of feeding students. The 24‐hour recall method was used to obtain dietary records for a weekday; records for a Sunday were based on recall beyond 24 hours. There were major differences between the eating patterns of males and females, and between Sunday and weekday patterns. With the exception of weekday breakfast, meals followed the traditional Ghanaian pattern of a cereal, starchy root or plantain dish with soup or stew. A majority of students consumed food from only four of the five food groups, the missing group being fruits. Students were generally favourable toward the “Pay As You Eat” system but criticized the food served and the amount of their allowance.

The Contribution of the University of Ibadan to the Spread of the Study and Teaching of African History Within Africa - Omer‐Cooper, J. D. (Journal of the Historical Society of Nigeria, 1980)
The role of the new universities of Black Africa in the growth and development of African nations has as yet received nothing like the attention it deserves. In the crucial period of the transition from colonial rule to independence these universities were responsible for training a very high proportion of the entire administrative, professional, scientific, pedagogical and specialist elites of the nascent nations. More perhaps than anywhere else the ruling class in most anglophone African countries is a class of university graduates. The way that the universities have shaped and developed the attitudes, skills and values of the dominant elites has thus exercised a very important influence on the pattern of post-independence development. The impact of the universities was not, however, confined to the emerging graduate elite. The university staff in many subject areas played a leading role in the revision of school syllabuses while as graduates from the universities went back to the schools as teachers they took with them to the classrooms the intellectual interests , approaches and values they had acquired in their degree studies. Not only have the ruling cadres of these nations been moulded by the universities, but the intellectual background interests and values of virtually the entire literate sections of their populations have been very significantly shaped by them also,. When one bears in mind that this widespread influence over the life of a whole nation was sometimes exercised by a single university, one becomes aware of the very great power that was entrusted to the small, mainly expatriate academic staffs of these institutions. It is with a view to illustrating the importance of this subject rather than as an attempt at a definitive study of any aspect of it that I offer this brief account based mainly on personal reminiscence of the role of the University of Ibadan in fostering the study and teaching of African history.

Mental Health Problems as Viewed by Prospective Teachers in a College of Education (Nigeria) - Owie, Ikponmwosa (Journal of Negro Education, 1980)
Contemporary trends in education at all levels tend to emphasize relevancy or what is often called accountability. These education concepts suggest that education should be relevant to the present as well as to prospective problems of the society. In other words, the educational establishment cannot abrogate its social responsibility in searching, addressing, and suggesting solutions to contemporary health and social problems. This is very important in schools where students' and personnel's health and social problems have massive influence on performance and achievement. An awareness of the important mental health needs of students and personnel would allow for the development and organization of appropriate preventive or remedial programs in education. Health and social problems in educational programs at the teacher training level take on added importance when viewed from the perspective that the students themselves are preparing to be teachers. Every effort should be harnessed to allow professional educators to address these problems as part of the instructional program in educational training programs. This may require a complete change in attitude toward the environment, reassessment of long held values, or the reexamination and reconstruction of

The method of training traditional healers and midwives among the yoruba of Nigeria - Oyebola, D.D.O. (Social Science & Medicine. Part A: Medical Psychology & Medical Sociology, 1980)
From brief accounts of the process of training given by 132 herbalists/midwives and a detailed interview of 4 other herbalists, information was gathered on the method of training of the traditional healers and midwives among the Yoruba of Nigeria. The study showed that all traditional healers receive formal training before they start to practice. The duration of training is 10.0 ± 7.3 years (mean ± SEM, n=132). The initial stage of training involves observation of various procedures. Next the apprentice is involved in practical work. He takes part in preparing various “medicines” and he is taught the art of diagnosis and management of diseases. Incantations are learnt by rote. Divination procedure(s) is also learnt by the trainees who will graduate as herbalists/diviners. On completing the training, the apprentice performs a “graduation” ceremony during which a senior herbalist uses various objects for prayers with emphasis on their symbolic value in the Yoruba culture. The findings of the study is compared and contrasted with what happens in other cultures. The cultural and psychological values of “prayers” offered during the ceremony in the life of the Yoruba were stressed.

Moral Education in South Africa - Potgieter, P.C. (Journal of Moral Education, 1980)
Abstract Moral education in South Africa has always been a matter of priority to parents and educationalists alike. Although it is not taught as a separate subject in the schooling process, much attention is paid to it throughout the school curriculum. Particularly in religious education and in social studies time is devoted to matters of moral conduct. The basis for moral education has almost right through been a Christian approach to life. This is the case in schools for black and for white pupils. A great number of devoted teachers go to great lengths to prepare young people for life in such a way that they may become steadfast citizens of the country. The role of parents, youth organizations, churches and ‐‐ in the case of black youths ‐‐ tribal customs, should, however, not be underestimated in the moral training of young people.

Criteria for Evaluating Precollegiate Teaching Materials on Africa - Schmidt, Nancy J. (Issue, 1980)

When the total range of information about Africa available to the average American citizen is taken into account, however, it must be recognized that the majority is biased, impressionistic, and inaccurate by the standards of Africans, scholars, and Africanists.

A comparative study of student teachers in England and Egypt investigating the relationship between their perception of the status of the teaching profession and their attitudes towards education - Shahin, Amira M. M (1980)
The main aim of the research was to compare student teachers' Perceptions of the teaching profession and their attitudes to Education, in England and Egypt. Other aims of the research were: (1) To investigate how Teachers perceive the teaching profession at different levels in Terms of status, salary, using abilities fully, usefulness to Society, as well as public esteem. (2) To assess the value of R.A.C. Oliver's questionnaire Survey of Opinions about Education, As a measure of teachers' attitudes in terms of three dimensions: Naturalism, Radicalism and Tender-mindedness. (3) To assess the Effectiveness of the Oliver Questionnaire as a measure of teacher Attitudes to education in Egyptian culture. (4) To compare Student teachers' attitudes to education in the light of certain Demographic information, viz. Sex, age, teaching subject, and Subject of course. The main English sample of respondents consisted of student Teachers in colleges of education and P.G.C.E. students at Leeds University and a small number of M.Ed. Students and serving teachers. The main Egyptian sample consisted of student teachers in Colleges of education, and a small number of serving teachers and Diploma students. The instruments used in the study were: (1) the Oliver Questionnaire; (2) a questionnaire on ranking occupations. Data Were subjected to factor analysis, analysis of variance and rank Correlation. The main results showed that a relationship between student Teachers' perceptions of the status of the teaching profession and their attitudes to education could not be established in England And Egypt. Different factor structures were found for the English And Egyptian groups. Oliver's three-factor pattern was not Replicated in the English group results. Relationships between Biographical data and attitudes were analysed, and some significant Results were found. Some relationship was found between assessments Of the status of teaching within the two countries, but Assessments for different levels of teaching and for such variables As value to society and personal satisfaction showed significant Differences between the two countries. Cross-cultural comparison Of similar occupations in the two countries showed considerable Differences on several dimensions: status, salary, personal Satisfaction, using abilities fully and value to society. These Findings tend to support the culturalist rather than the structuralist view of a society.

Conservation in Community School Children in Papua new Guinea - Shea, John D.; Yerua, Gaodfrey (International Journal of Psychology, 1980)
Three hundred and thirty-nine primary level boys and girls from the Jimi Valley area of the Western Highlands of Papua New Guinea were tested for conservation of four concepts, number, length, quantity, and area. Schooling, age and sex were related to conservation with some concepts, and there were interaction effects between schooling and age. When compared with other studies the results suggest that there may be considerable differences between language-culture groups within Papua New Guinea, and that the Jimi children themselves show a lag of several years, a lag which increases with the difficulty of the concept tested, in achieving the concepts tested when compared with children from more developed countries. Trois cent trente neuf garçons et filles de niveau scolaire primaire de la région de la vallée du Jimi, dans les Highlands Occidentaux de Papouasic Nouvelle Guinée, ont été soumis à des tests de conservation de 4 concepts: nombre, longueur, quantité et surface. Niveau scolaire, âge et sexe ont montré avoir une influence sur la conservation de certains concepts et il y avait des effets d'interaction entre le niveau scolaire et l'âge. Comparés à d'autres études, les résultats montrent qu'il peut y avoir des différences considérables entre les groups, différant chacun par la langage et la culture, à l'intérieur měme de la Papouasie Nouvelle Guinée, et que les enfants Jimi eux-měmes montrent un retard de plusieurs années (retard qui s'accroît avec la difficulté du concept testé) dans la réalisation des concepts testés, comparés à des enfants de pays plus développés.

Planning for reform of university education in Egypt, with special reference to its role in national development, students admission and policy of expansion. - Soliman, Monica (1980)
University education in Egypt faces certain problems related to its role in national development, students' admission and policy of expansion such as the shortage of human and material resources, large numbers of students enrolled in the universities, lack of university autonomy, shortage of financial resources etc. This thesis proposes tentative solutions to meet the above problems. To achieve this aim, an investigation is conducted through an examination of those areas chosen in general as well as in national context in order to suggest a plan for reforming such areas within university education in Egypt. The role of Egyptian Universities has been examined with regard to its cultural, economic, social, educational and research functions. The admission policy has been critically examined with regard to manpower requirements, the provision of human and material resources, university autonomy. The open door policy of admission adopted in Egypt and its consequences have been criticised. The critical appraisal of admission procedures has dealt with the system of exemption, system of external students,the present choice'card, the General Secondary Certificate Examination as the sole criterion for admission. Students' guidance and admission of students of Science division to humanities faculties. The policy of university expansion has been examined by investigating reasons for expansion. Attention has been focused on the regional expansion of universities which started in the late nineteen sixties and during the nineteen seventies. Critical appraisal of the policy of expansion has been debated in the light of the requirements of manpower, the provision of financial resources, the provision of university facilities. Reasons of the over-expansion of university education are discussed. The unplanned expansion of universities has resulted in certain consequences e.g. the surplus of graduates to the requirements, lowering of standard of education given to students, production of mass university system and inequality of the provision of university facilities. Finally, the thesis proposes a plan for reforming university education in Egypt; the universities need to be supported and equipped to enable them to respond to the needs of society though playing their assigned roles e.g. economic, social and educational development, research, development of culture. The admission policy has to be adjusted to manpower requirements to avoid the surplus of graduates, universities autonomy should be safeguarded in setting up admission policy, The open door policy hats to be reviewed, restrictions can be replaced on admission to medical and technical faculties. Admission procedures can be reformed by the development of at external system, abolition of the system of exemption, providing guidance for students,anc changing the choice' card. The policy of university expansion has to be planned by differential application of the three main approaches, social demand, manpower demand, cost-benefit.

THE EARTHQUAKE GENERATING STRESSES IN THE WESTERN RIFT VALLEY OF AFRICA - Tanaka, Kazuo; Horiuchi, Shigeki; Sato, Toshiya; Ndontoni, Zana (Journal of physics of the earth, 1980)
The earthquake generating stress fields of the Western Rift Valley of Africa are discussed in detail from the data obtained by the seismological network of IRS, Zaire, and by the seismological stations in Africa. The present analysis is based on the method of composite mechanism solution using the initial motions of P-waves from earthquakes which occurred during the period from 1958 to 1970. The stress fields are analyzed for ten sub-regions divided on the ground of the characteristics of seismicity. Quite stable solutions are obtained for the sub-regions of Lake Kivu and its vicinities, which are located in the central part of the Western Rift Valley, and shows that the stress fields are of the normal faulting type. The direction of tension axis of each solution is generally perpendicular to the rift system or to the local faults. The perpendicularity is consistent with the results reported by several authors studying focal mechanisms of earthquakes occurring in the African Rifts and the ocean ridges. In contrast with this general conclusion, the strike-slip type of focal mechanism prevails in sub-regions of the southern part of the Western Rift Valley, and a heterogeneous stress field is suggested in the sub-region of the active volcanoes of Nyiragongo and Nyamuragira.

Education and Development in Central Kenya: Problems of Spatial and Structural Inequalities in the School System. - Wellings, Paul (1980)
Massive and sustained expenditure on educational development has been a consistent feature of Kenyan government policy since independence. Education is seen as a means of promoting national unity, establishing political ideologies and, most importantly, as a catalyst of social change and economic development through the production of appropriate skills and attitudes. In the light of recent policy intentions to concentrate upon rural development it is pertinent to evaluate the efficacy of the education sector's contribution. The thesis briefly documents the history of Kenyan education and examines influential research and reports within several disciplines in terms of their impact upon current educational policy. It is shown that, despite rapid growth and administrative changes, the present formal school system exhibits, in structure and direction, no fundamental departures from the inherited colonial framework; moreover, the informal sector's contribution, although specifically oriented to rural development, is far from significant. Inequalities within the educational system, particularly between secondary schools of different type, grade and location, are identified and the implications of these inequalities for the developnent-priority educational policy are discussed. The field data were provided by a questionnaire survey of students in secondary schools in central Kenya. The information referred to students' socio-economic and educational backgrounds; occupational and educational aspirations; and their attitudes towards development, social class and elitism. Analysis reveals that school standards are highly variable and that the system is still oriented to the urban/white-collar sector; access to this is rigidly restricted and biased towards students of high-graded Government schools serving the more affluent socio-economic groups. These findings are interpreted in terms of Kenya's political structure, ideologies and developing class relations. It is concluded that the educational system, far from generating an infrastructure conducive to rural development, acts to legitimize and reinforce elitism.

A young African girl, her school and her family environment: (situation of the Zaire girl acquiring education) - Wrzesinska, Alicja (Africa: rivista trimestrale di studi e documentazione, 1980)
As early as in the first years after Zaire had gained independence people's traditional views on the problem of the education of girls underwent great changes; there is much evidence which proves that girls education is a conscious need. On account of mass illiteracy in the country, education, even primary, gives the feeling of reaching a higher level of « civilization ». In an urban environment secondary school constitutes this threshold especially grammar school. In the period from 1962-1963 to 1969-1970 the number of female students at both primary and secondary school levels increased considerably. Regardless that the number of girls at both levels is incomparably smaller than the number of boys, more and more girls enroll in secondary schools. Several factors which draw our attention are the low effectiveness of the Zaire system of education, the high number of drop-outs, female ones in particular, during the course of studies and the small percentage of girls who pass the final secondary schol examination.
