Navigating the Free Basic Education Landscape, Southern Africa | Chapter 5 | An Overview of Literature, Language and Education Research Vol. 1

The universal education agenda is to make education accessible, affordable, inclusive, and equitable to the destitute. Sedulous efforts are diligently carried out to the realization of this vision to ameliorate individuals academically and socially while meliorating emotional developmental needs. As need be, without exception, it is exigent for everyone to be erudite. For this to happen, it had to start from the ground up, achievable with the exordium of free basic education (FBE) with no child left behind policy maugre socio-economic background. This will be a paradigm shift against educational discrimination and inequalities, serving as a means for all to acquire knowledgeable skills and break the cycle of the underprivileged not having admittance. The study ferrets out insights on FBE from 17 Eswatini public primary educational communities, the study identified its benefits, trammels, impact on education, and panaceas. The empirical pragmatic procedure utilized the mixed method to present factual outcomes that can be generalized. Data was gathered from 70 educators (principals, in-service, and pre-service) and 15 learners by convenience, purposive, and referral approaches through surveys, distributed in person and virtually. Educators got the drift and thus had synchronized responses on the merits of free education as a benefact to the marginalized. The proem of FBE is menaced by innumerable impediments, a variety of topics are indexed from the visited schools, ranging from a population explosion of learners disproportionate to teaching-learning facilities/resources, educators’ deficit in attending to individualized learner needs, inadequate educational coaches, declined learner discipline, and English lingo as a barrier to education. Educators’ and learners’ perceptions of automatic promotional policy detrimental to quality education and the new curriculum are sought. FBE is a noble vision, worthy of achieving its goals, it is anticipated that the research would highlight and elucidate patterns of educational disadvantage in FBE for all relevant stakeholders to necessitate reformations to ensure its sustainable success.

Creating an Interactive Model for Simulation-Based Learning Environments | Chapter 5 | Progress in Language, Literature and Education Research Vol. 6

The purposes of this paper are to explore some of the important characteristics of the key elements of simulation and debriefing learning and expand our understanding of the critical interactions between these elements by introducing an Active Engagement Model to be used as a framework for creating a simulation learning environment (SLE) that fosters learner active engagement.

A major learning methodology in healthcare education that is quickly gaining traction is simulation. The special qualities of simulation learning assist students strengthen their clinical reasoning abilities and, more significantly, provide a bridge between the classroom and real patient care. Learner active engagement is a critical requirement for effective learning during simulation and debriefing, which tasks educators to design simulation learning environments that foster learner active engagement. To foster learner active engagement, the educator and the learner must develop a dyadic relationship of trust, openness, sharing, and safety. The formation of this dyadic relationship implies that the learner has engaged in the learning environment. Educators should also understand the difference between a challenging environment and one that is perceived as threatening. A challenging environment is one where the learner has multiple opportunities to make critical decisions. The simulation literature lacks significant discussion of how the elements of the simulation learning environment can be used to create a learning environment that encourages active engagement in the learning process. From the information gathered through a literature search in CINHAHL, PubMed, and Psychology and Behavioral Sciences databases, this article describes the critical elements of effective simulation learning. The educator/learner dyad is the functional entity of the paradigm, and it is made up of three components: the learner, the educator, and the environment. These components must work together effectively. After the teacher-student pair is established, every component of the model works together to create a productive virtual learning environment.

Insect Plant Interaction | Book Publisher International

 Philosophers, scientists, educators, and others have explicitly classified all known information to define its bounds and display the structure of knowledge from time to time. Various disciplines are based on this framework. The study of insects and plants is divided into two disciplines: Zoology and Botany. Despite the fact that insects and plants belong to separate disciplines with well-defined borders and knowledge structures, they interact, which is the subject of this book. Numerous publications have been written about insects and plants from various ecological perspectives. There have been a relatively small number of novels written about their interactions. However, the majority of these novels were written by authors who spoke English as their first language.

The author of this book, Insect-Plant Interaction, does not claim originality of content because he consulted several books, journals, and conference proceedings written by various academicians and practitioners from various countries. The essence of the author's more than fifty years of active teaching and leading research will be apparent to the reader. The biggest issue that students experience when reading academic literature is not the substance, but rather the language and style. Authors who speak English as their first language prefer to utilize a higher level of vocabulary and style, which can be problematic for students who do not speak English. This book is an attempt by a non-English speaking instructor who has worked in Indian and Ethiopian classrooms to assist students in overcoming this issue.
