Abstract

Purpose: This study explores teachers' perspectives and challenges in implementing a competency-based English literature curriculum in Uganda after many years of British hegemony. This reflects on the roles and prestige of the English language as it evolved during colonial and postcolonial schools. Research methodology: The method used in this study focuses on secondary literature to refute the claim that the British forced English into Uganda while extinguishing native tongues. Results: According to the major results of the study, students in Uganda had the opportunity to enroll in kindergarten through university-level schooling, where English was the predominant medium of instruction. Limitations: The study's limitations suggest that, although the British gave English education more attention, they were careful to emphasize that national tongues should not be disregarded in favor of English. Following these investigations, the old English language curriculum has always had a tenuous connection with British political and economic interests in Uganda. Contribution: Regarding the contributions of the study, the overhaul of the curriculum was "overdue," according to Hon. Janet Museveni, Minister of Education, Sports and Science who stated in Parliament that the antiquated curriculum was anti-intellectual and opposed to cultural action. However, it is still challenging to put such a change into practice practically. This treatise simply states an ‘implementation gap,’ which is the difference between the intended and actual implementation of the competency-based curriculum.

Abstract

Purpose: This study analyzes indigenous traditions and the impact of war on N. Scott Momaday’s novel House Made of Dawn. This study aims to understand how the narrative portrays the struggles of Native American identity and cultural survival in the post-World War II era. Research methodology: A qualitative literary analysis approach was employed, focusing on thematic analysis, character study, and the cultural context. The analysis examined primary and secondary sources, such as literary criticism and historical accounts, to provide a comprehensive understanding of the novel’s themes. Results: The analysis revealed that the novel intricately weaves indigenous traditions with traumatic experiences of war. The protagonist, Abel, embodies the conflict between Native American heritage and the alienation caused by modern society and war. The novel depicts the resilience of indigenous culture through rituals, storytelling, and community support, highlighting the healing process of individuals and communities. Limitations: This study’s narrow focus on a single novel may not fully represent the broader spectrum of Native American literature or experiences. Additionally, reliance on existing literary criticism may introduce bias, based on the interpretations of other scholars. Contribution: This paper enhances the understanding of how indigenous traditions and the impact of war are portrayed in the Native American literature. This underscores the importance of cultural preservation and the role of literature in addressing historical and contemporary issues faced by indigenous communities. This study also offers insights into the healing power of cultural practices and community solidarity in the face of adversity.

Abstract

Purpose: The study aims to identify the effects of inadequate funding on the quality of secondary education in Hurungwe District, Zimbabwe. Research methodology: The study had a mixed approach to collecting data. A triangulation of methods was adopted to collect by using both primary and secondary methods. A pragmatist view of the study was taken. Results: Low secondary education budget allocation, inconsistent and delayed government levy payments, declining donor funding, an unfavorable economic climate where parents cannot afford levies resulting in high school dropout rates, inadequate teaching and learning resources, low pass rates, and low affiliation payments are the main causes of underfunding. Limitations: lack of a proper data recording and management system at the district offices to provide actual statistics of revenue and expenditure for schools. Contribution: Influencing policy on secondary school funding in Zimbabwe so that schools can be informed on how to come up with sustainable funding ways in order to improve the quality of education.

Abstract

Purpose: This study assesses the limitations of Thomas Malthus' population theory and explores how Cornucopian perspectives offer solutions to the sustainability of Ghana's population within the framework of the vicious cycle model. Research methodology: The study used existing literature to analyse historical and contemporary sources on Malthusian and Cornucopian perspectives; and applied it to the analysis of demographic data and socio-economic indicators to assess the applicability of these theories in a modern Ghanaian context. Results: The study finds that Malthus' theory is limited by its failure to anticipate technological advancements and improved agricultural practices, which have mitigated the risks of a Malthusian crisis. Cornucopian theorists provide a more optimistic view, arguing that innovation and socio-economic development can counteract the negative effects of rapid population growth. In Ghana, strategic investments in education, health, and technology have the potential to break the vicious cycle of poverty and population growth, aligning with Cornucopian ideas. Limitations: The study does not account for all local factors influencing population dynamics in Ghana. Contribution: This study contributes to the field of population studies by providing a comparative analysis of Malthusian and Cornucopian theories, with a specific focus on their relevance to contemporary issues in developing countries like Ghana. Novelty: The novelty lies in its application of classical population theories to the modern context of Ghana.

Abstract

Purpose: This study examined how Yorùbá and Non-Yorùbá movie and music preferences correlated with secondary students’ knowledge of Yorùbá cultural concepts in Ibadan, a metropolitan Yoruba society. Research methodology: The study adopted a correlational survey research design. Randomly selected 350 SS II students in Ibadan filled the Students’ Questionnaire on Movie Preferences (r=.93); Students’ Questionnaire on Music Preferences (r=.91); and Yorùbá Cultural Concepts Knowledge Test (r=.81) self-designed for data collection. Data were analyzed using Pearson’s Product Moment Correlation and Multiple Regression Analysis at p<0.05. Results: Findings revealed that knowledge of Yorùbá cultural concepts had a positive correlation with students’ preferences for Yorùbá movie (r = .575; p<.05) and music (r = .564; p<.05) but a negative correlation with students’ preferences for non-Yorùbá movie (r = -.551; p<.05) and music (r = -.485; p<.05). The composite contribution of the independent variables was significant (F (4, 345) = 56.201, p<.05).  Preference for Yorùbá music (?= .227) had the highest relative contribution. Conclusions: Preferences for Yorùbá movie and music are important in improving students’ knowledge of Yorùbá cultural concepts. Limitations: The study was limited to Yoruba and non-Yoruba movies and music, and Yoruba indigenes taking Yoruba as a subject in secondary schools in Ibadan, Nigeria. Future studies should focus on other media products and their influence on cultural knowledge in other Nigerian societies. Contribution: This study established that indigenous music can increase students’ cultural knowledge. This has practical implications for the use of music in indigenous languages and cultural teaching in secondary schools. Therefore, Secondary school students should be encouraged to regularly listen to traditional Yorùbá music and watch Yorùbá movies on all available media, while teachers also utilize them in teaching.

Abstract

Purpose: This systematically reviews and examines existing literature on how anxiety, stress, and emotional factors influence academic performance among students across various educational settings and identifies key trends. Research methodology: Drawing on studies published between 2020 and 2024, the review synthesizes findings from diverse populations, including high school and university students. The analysis reveals a consistent negative correlation between elevated levels of anxiety and academic achievement, with significant implications for cognitive functioning, motivation, and engagement. Additionally, the review highlights the role of stress as a critical factor affecting academic outcomes, where chronic stress is linked to decreased performance and increased dropout rates. Emotional intelligence emerges as a vital moderating variable, with students exhibiting higher emotional regulation demonstrating improved coping strategies and better academic results. Results: The findings indicate that female students often report higher anxiety levels compared to their male counterparts, underscoring the need for targeted interventions. Furthermore, the review identifies gaps in the current literature, particularly concerning underrepresented populations and the long-term effects of anxiety and stress on academic trajectories. Recommendations include implementing mental health support programs, fostering emotional intelligence development, and promoting resilience among students. Limitations: Limited by potential publication bias, variability in assessment tools, sample heterogeneity, and reliance on self-reported data, which may affect the generalizability and accuracy of findings on academic performance. Contribution: This review highlights the critical need for educational institutions to address psychological factors affecting academic performance, focusing on reducing anxiety, stress, and emotional challenges to foster supportive learning environments and improve overall student well-being and success.

Abstract

Purpose: This study examines strategies for transferring the Selwasa language through informal education in Marantutul Village. Research methodology: Data were obtained via interviews and observations, using descriptive qualitative analysis. Results: Selwasa is transmitted informally by parents and the community through everyday communication. Strategies include direct pronunciation, vocabulary instruction, reading, and sentence building. Children are encouraged to note new words and express themselves creatively through poetry, short stories, and group discussions. Two main strategies are identified: direct strategies (e.g., memory-based learning, daily language use) and indirect strategies (e.g., traditional games, storytelling, creative writing, discussions). Conclusions: The preservation of Selwasa in Marantutul Village relies on informal educational practices involving both direct and indirect strategies. These include vocabulary teaching, use in conversations, and participation in cultural activities. Such efforts not only pass on the language but also build emotional connections, helping reframe Selwasa as part of daily life rather than solely ritual use. This study offers insight into grassroots language revitalization in a multilingual context. Limitations: The study is limited to Marantutul Village, where Selwasa use is declining due to a shift toward Ambonese Malay and a weakening sense of linguistic identity. Contribution: The research documents community-based efforts to preserve and revitalize Selwasa through informal means. Novelty: While once limited to rituals, Selwasa is now taught as a living language for daily use among younger generations.
