Abstract

This study aims to examine the existing implementation of curriculum in school education, including explicit, covert, and null-curriculum aspects. This has been conducted in the community schools of Kathmandu to examine the factors contributing to the difference between the expected learning outcomes of school education and the actual results as stated in the curriculum. The study involved grade-eight students and their teachers from five community schools situated in the suburban suburbs of Kathmandu. The authors used a range of data collection techniques, including thorough interviews, group discussions, and direct observation. The study found that educational activities that encourage students to create meaningful connections are more valuable than those that discourage them from gaining real-world knowledge and skills. The curriculum promotes educational activities that actively engage learners and are guided by teachers. This approach helps students develop the necessary academic and transversal competencies. To cultivate students with the necessary skills, it is crucial for the curriculum to address the adverse effects of inadequate teaching and the overemphasis on high-stakes testing. This has resulted in a disproportionate emphasis on exam-focused instruction and learning. The study suggests that the curriculum should integrate the essential elements of the written, hidden, and null curriculum to provide hands-on learning experiences and promote the growth of both academic and transferable skills in children.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the complex relationship between remittances and school enrollment. This quantitative study used descriptive and analytical research methodologies, including ARDL. This study examines the pros and cons of remittance inflows on education using empirical data and theoretical frameworks. This method considers home income, economic inequality, school availability, and long-term educational success. This model analyzes factors affecting basic private school enrollment. The negative and statistically significant coefficients (-0.269 -0.475) for lagged private enrolment show crowding-out. The private enrolment may decline after two and one-year rises. One probable explanation is increased cost competition among private schools or a shift in student preference toward government schools. LNPG and lagged LNPG (-1) coefficients are not statistically significant. This model cannot prove that population growth, whether immediate or delayed, directly affects private school enrollment. This study helps to create targeted interventions and strategies for equitable and sustainable educational advancement in Nepal.

Abstract

Library practices in schools exert significant influence on students’ learning attitude and behavior. This paper explores the existing situation of library practices in community and institutional schools of Nepal. Despite a number of options to educate students in school from library-use, library provision and its existing practices in community and institutional schools in Nepal are still unsearched. In context students study only during the time of their class, assignment and examination preparation, how the schools make use of library for the promotion of students’ learning is the main concern of the study. Information for the study was collected from fieldnotes and lived experiences of eight participants: one teacher and one student from each of four schools: two institutional and two community. The study found that teachers in community schools occasionally visit the library and rarely encourage their students to benefit from the library. However, some students were found to borrow books from the library. As students in institutional schools have library period once a week, they enjoy reading books or doing something in the library. Overall library practice in Nepal lacks adequate proficiency in management, administration, and provision of study materials; and ultimately has not motivated students’ hearty participation.

Abstract

The objectives of this study were to explore the participants’ lived experiences on medium of instruction while teaching English in the classrooms and to explore the participants’ lived experiences on Mother Tongue Based Multilingual Education approach to teaching English at primary level. Phenomenological research design was employed to complete this study. A set of questionnaires, interviews and discussion were the major research tools and three primary level English teachers were the sample population of this study. Phenomenological interviews and a set of questionnaires were used to collect the data. The collected data were transcribed, translated, coded and interpreted and analyzed thematically. The result of this study shows that a suitable medium of instruction is the most important factor and MTB-MLE approach is an effective approach to teach English language for the children of ethnic group people at pre-primary level. This study has implications for social change as teachers who engage in collaboration with colleagues and reflective practice will positively affect student achievement. Students may be taught by teachers who have the knowledge, skills, and attitude required for a successful implementation of a multilingual approach.
