Using The Work And Words Of Other Authors: A Guide To Apa Style For International Students - And Others, David R. Evans, Gretchen B. Rossman
David R. Evans
In the academic world of universities in the United States, the rules governing how and when you may use the ideas and words of others are taken very seriously. There are widely varying cultural assumptions about how knowledge is created and legitimated, and varying norms about the treatment of existing writings by subsequent authors. The Western academic world is highly individualistic and places emphasis on being able to judge and give credit for the work of each student or researcher. "World majority" students from collectivist societies come from nations where one's experiences, thoughts and ideas are interwoven with those of …

The Role Of The Global Coalition For Africa In Human Resource Development And Capacity Building, David R. Evans
David R. Evans
This report analyses the education component of the Human Resource Development sector in order to recommend specific activities which take advantage of the capabilities of the Global Coalition for Africa (GCA). The paper looks at four sector-wide options and two sub-sector options, chosen because of the potential benefits from GCA involvement in them. The four sector-wide options are: 1) Increasing government support for Human Resource Development. 2) Diversifying the Supply of Educational Services. 3) Formulation of National Education Policy, and 4) Rationalization of High-Level Meetings. Of the four the best option for GCA is the first, which enables GCA to …

Human Resources Development: Literacy, Schooling, Nonformal Education, Women's Education, David R. Evans
David R. Evans
Education in Namibia under the illegal colonial regime (was) characterized by inequality, segregation and other apartheid conditions...Schools for various population groups are segregated along racial and ethnic lines. Ethnicity is promoted at the cost of national unity by the provision of segregated schools, linguistic segregation, and curricula that attempt to promote the special status of whites. While education is compulsory for whites, there are not enough schools for Africans. The schools for Africans are staffed with unqualified or inadequately qualified teachers... Pupil to teacher ratios in the African schools are much higher than those in the white schools. Funds allocated …

Educational Reform In The Context Of Community-Based Nonformal Education Programs, David R. Evans
Educational Reform In The Context Of Community-Based Nonformal Education Programs, David R. Evans
David R. Evans
During the past decade, nonformal education has become an accepted part of the educational scene in developing and developed countries alike. A good part of its popularity can be attributed to the belief that nonformal education could achieve some substantial reforms in the provision of education. Nonformal education appeared to h old out the possibility of dealing with problems of equity of access to education, of decreasing the distance between education and the world of work and life, of promoting development of rural areas, and of accelerating political participation and social development. Nonformal education was quickly seen to be a …

Analysis Of Learning Needs For Rural Development: Some Basic Issues, David R. Evans Dr.
Analysis Of Learning Needs For Rural Development: Some Basic Issues, David R. Evans Dr.
David R. Evans
One of the major problems being faced by developing countries throughout the world is concerned with the eradication of poverty, disease and backwardness from their rural areas. The task of transforming and modernizing rural societies is no doubt very difficult and complex, but at the same time a very urgent one, and should be given high priority in the overall plans and programmes of national development. This is because a much larger percentage of population in developing countries lives in rural areas compared to that in the developed countries. In some developing countries, especially in Africa and Asia, the rural …

Image And Reality: Career Goals Of Educated Ugandan Women, David R. Evans Dr.
David R. Evans
This paper presents an initial exploration of the relationship between the employment and the training of women in the context of a single African country, Uganda. It begins with an analysis of the present and projected employment picture for women in relationship to the number of secondary school girls. The analysis then focuses on job aspirations and expectations of girls in secondary schools, at both the lower and higher school level. Differences between expectations and probable opportunities are discussed and related to certain differences in secondary schools.

The Use Of Graphical Analysis In Education Planning, David R. Evans
The Use Of Graphical Analysis In Education Planning, David R. Evans
David R. Evans
This paper discusses the use of graphical techniques as tools of analysis and projection in planning the growth of an educational system. Graphs are shown to be particularly valuable when used to investigate the implications of alternate growth patterns for various aspects of the school system. The technique is intended to precede and augment the usual forms of statistical analysis. Reasons are suggested why graphs are particularly appropriate to the rapidly growing educational systems in developing countries.
