Description

This book, Education in Nigeria: Reflections and Global Perspectives, provides a broad overview of education in Nigeria.

It recognizes the vital role education plays in the development of Nigeria and has attempted to air the concerns and call of the Nigerian public as well as educators for reform in the educational system in Nigeria.

The book further recognizes that Nigerian education continues to be evolved, first into a system of Western European education and then into a global system of education.

It attempts to examine the status of education in Nigeria and thereby seeks solutions by exploring Nigeria's and global historical perspectives, current trends, and future directions regarding students and learning, teachers and teaching, the school curriculum, and administration of schools.

It is expected that the comprehensive nature of the text will be beneficial to individuals in teacher preparation programs as well as those who plan to work with children in pre-kindergarten (nursery) through secondary settings. The chapter content of the book focuses on the variation of thought as to the principal objectives of educators to help students in Nigeria develop habits, skills and ideas, and help them to think.

It adds to the importance of providing education to all, especially at the time when Nigeria is frankly making an eff ort to affirm democracy.

For any nation to be truly democratic, it must maintain an educated electorate.

Education prepares people to make informed decisions that affect the society.

All children in Nigeria should, therefore, receive an education to prepare them to become effective members of the world society.

This book seeks to examine and reflect on education in Nigeria and globally. “…are genuinely working in order to produce not only intelligent men and women, who will be cultured and skilled, but also the leaders who will adapt themselves to their environment, adjust themselves to the outside world and give direction and purpose to their people for the building of a modern nation, whose nationals must realize that they are destined to give leadership in many directions of human endeavour.”~ Dr. Nnamdi Azikiwe, FMR President of Nigeria, speaking of progressive elements of Nigeria
