Teaching and Learning in the Language Classroom KIRTI KAPOOR Reportage 130 Should We Teach Economics in Schools? R. SRINIVASAN EDITOR’S NOTE Law and Judiciary have significant role in all the sectors including education. However, until not so long ago in education, law has played its role mostly in relation to cases regarding service matters of teachers and cases of school managements against teachers. But now with the implementation of Right of Children to Free and Compulsory Education (RTE) Act 2009, the role of lawyers has suddenly become very important in education. Not only this, the need to orient them on various aspects of education is also being felt. On this emerging concern, Ashok Agarwal delivered a lecture entitled 'Role of Lawyers in Education', for one of the memorial lecture series organised by the NCERT. The present issue includes this lecture in the form of an article with the purpose of reaching to large number of stakeholders to initiate a dialogue on this issue as its importance is being strongly visualised for the future. Further, with regard to elementary education which comes under RTE Act 2009, articles contributed by Poonam and Sheela Sangwan, Vishal D Pajankar and Pranali P, Ranjana Bhatia, Sunitah Susan Jose and P.J. Poulose, which are included in this issue, highlight various related concerns such as inclusive education, problems of education of Scheduled Castes population, aggression in children, cooperative learning and social development in elementary classroom. A series of engagement with the concern related to secondary education is reflected in research articles contributed by Kuntala Patra and Arundhati Mech, Laxmidhar Behera and B. N Panda, Anil Kumar Nautiyal and Prabha Negi. These research articles are based on studies conducted to explain the relation between school environment and mathematics achievement, personality pattern and achievement of ST students in relation to gender and type of institutions, and assessment of the creativity in adolescents. These articles may provide a forum for dialogues and research in these areas as well as in other related areas. An article by Anubhuti Yadav explains the need and challenges to include ‘media studies’ as a subject in school curriculum. For any stage of school education, teacher is a crucial factor but if teacher is under stress, what strategies need to be adopted to overcome his/her stress? An article by A. Sudharma and Lekshmi V. deals with the issue of 'Teaching through Stress Management and Stress Proofing'. This issue also includes an article contributed by P. Adinarayana Reddy, D. Uma Devi and E. Mahadeva Reddy on the programme evaluation aspect of Continuing Education Programme in Puducherry. The findings of this evaluation clearly indicate the need for improvement in the delivery mechanism and also in concern areas. The issue concludes with a book review by Kirti Kapoor, and a reportage by R. Srinivasan which tries to find out the answer to the issues of related need and rationale of teaching economics in India. Academic Editor JIE Role of Lawyers in Education* ASHOK AGARWAL** Abstract Until not so long ago, lawyers had little or no role in school education, except perhaps in relation to cases regarding service matters of teachers and cases of school managements against teachers, etc. The phenomenon of voluntary action by lawyers, acting on behalf of children too poor to afford either private schooling or lawyers, is a fairly recent trend, perhaps not more than 10 to 15 years old. However, as soon as education comes to be defined as a right of the child, the importance of lawyers in completing the circuit that will ensure the right to education becomes inevitable. This lecture will trace the movement for defending the right to education from the advent of PILs to the present, before discussing some issues that can and have emerged in the context of right to education in schools. Some of these relate to— denial of admission in government schools; cruelty against children in the name of private school admissions; lack of basic amenities in schools, such as, water, electricity, proper roofs and walls which can protect from harsh weather, etc.; corporal punishment and other forms of humiliation; lack of connection between primary and upper-primary education; the dissociation between the aims of education and the goals of schools; the issue of unjustifiable fee hike in private schools; the issue of allotment of free land to private schools; and violation of educational rights of poor children. This lecture will discuss how in taking action on behalf of poor children for ensuring their educational rights, one comes to the awareness that simply finding a case and fighting it is not enough. Unless public opinion and public anger are also not built up against such denials, these wrongs will continue. I will discuss how I learnt to enlist the support of the media in creating awareness and opinion. At the same time, however, I realised that going to the courts alone cannot and should not be an answer to all the ills in education. Mobilising public outcry is also important. Sometimes, when people come together to demand action, matters can be rectified without going to a court. I will discuss in my lecture how at this point, I learnt to make correct strategy to achieve justice for children’s right to education. * This article was presented during the Fourth Mahadevi Verma Memorial Lecture 2010 at Regional Institute of Education, Bhopal, on 5 October 2010 and published by the NCERT, New Delhi. **He has been practising Law at Supreme Court and the Delhi High Court. 6 Journal of Indian Education February 2011 However, there is a limit to what a lawyer can do.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106- 1346 Abstract This study demonstrates how Indians with French citizenship were able through their stay in Indochina to have some say in shaping their position within the French colonial empire, and how in turn they made then' mark on Indochina itself. Known as ‘renouncers’, they gained their citizenship by renoimcing their personal laws in order to to be judged by the French civil code. Mainly residing in Cochinchina, they served primarily as functionaries in the French colonial administration, and spent the early decades of their stay battling to secure recognition of their electoral and civil rights in the colony. Their presence in Indochina in turn had an important influence on the ways in which the peoples of Indochina experienced and assessed French colonialism.

  • The French Model of Assimilation and Direct Rule - Faidherbe and Senegal –
    The French Model of Assimilation and Direct Rule - Faidherbe and Senegal – Key terms: Assimilation Association Direct rule Mission Dakar–Djibouti Direct Rule Direct rule is a system whereby the colonies were governed by European officials at the top position, then Natives were at the bottom. The Germans and French preferred this system of administration in their colonies. Reasons: This system enabled them to be harsh and use force to the African without any compromise, they used the direct rule in order to force African to produce raw materials and provide cheap labor The colonial powers did not like the use of chiefs because they saw them as backward and African people could not even know how to lead themselves in order to meet the colonial interests It was used to provide employment to the French and Germans, hence lowering unemployment rates in the home country Impacts of direct rule It undermined pre-existing African traditional rulers replacing them with others It managed to suppress African resistances since these colonies had enough white military forces to safeguard their interests This was done through the use of harsh and brutal means to make Africans meet the colonial demands. Assimilation (one ideological basis of French colonial policy in the 19th and 20th centuries) In contrast with British imperial policy, the French taught their subjects that, by adopting French language and culture, they could eventually become French and eventually turned them into black Frenchmen. The famous 'Four Communes' in Senegal were seen as proof of this. Here Africans were granted all the rights of French citizens.

  • A Historical Analysis of French and Senegal Cultural Relationship
    FROM IMPERIALISM TO DIPLOMACY: A HISTORICAL ANALYSIS OF FRENCH AND SENEGAL CULTURAL RELATIONSHIP BY AISHA BALARABE BAWA DEPARTMENT OF HISTORY USMANU DANFODIYO UNIVERSITY, SOKOTO EMAIL:[email protected] Being a paper presented at the London Art as Cultural Diplomacy Conference 2013 on the theme: “Contemporary International Dialogue: Art-Based Developments and Culture shared between nations” Held at The Portcullis House, British Parliament from 21st to 24th August 2013. 1 Introduction France and Senegal shared a special relationship for over 300 years that date back to the 17th century. Saint- Louis was the first permanent French settlement in Senegal. Its geographical position meant that it commanded trade along the Senegal River. The four communes of Senegal (Goree, Dakar, Rufisque, and Saint- Louis) were the only place during the African colonial period, where African inhabitants were granted the same right as French. As the capital of French West Africa during the colonial period, Senegal was France‟s most important African territory. The French had a more concentrated and central presence there than in other colonies, so its culture became particularly ingrained into Senegalese life. The two countries have maintained the close ties since political independence. In spite Senegal obtaining it independence in 1960, it has maintained a positive relationship with France, and many elements of French culture introduced during the colonial period remain an important part of Senegalese identity. This paper examines the colonial language policy of French in Senegal as a form of cultural relationship between two nations. Overview of Literature Since the beginning of the 1960s, there have been a number of studies devoted in part or entirely to French colonial language policy in Africa.

Daughton Professor Thomas Laqueur Professor Percy Hintzen Spring 2014 The Politics of Disaster in a Colony of Citizens: Compatriotism, Citizenship, and Catastrophe in French Martinique (1870 – 1902) © Copyright 2014 Christopher Michael Church Abstract The Politics of Disaster in a Colony of Citizens: Compatriotism, Citizenship, and Catastrophe in French Martinique (1870 – 1902) By Christopher Michael Church Doctor of Philosophy in History University of California, Berkeley Professor Tyler Stovall, Chair As politicians of France’s Third Republic vied to build a democratic consensus and distance themselves from France’s recent autocratic past, they projected a fantasy of assimilation onto Martinique—one of France’s oldest colonies where the predominately non-white population had received full citizenship and universal manhood suffrage with the ratification of the Constitution of 1875. However, at the close of the nineteenth century, a series of disasters struck the French island of Martinique that threatened the republican fantasy of seamless assimilation: (1) the 1890 fire that destroyed the island’s capital of Fort-de-France; (2) the 1891 Atlantic hurricane that devastated the island’s economy and prompted a reevaluation of the place of the colony within the French nation; (3) the first general strike in 1900 wherein civil unrest in the colonies caused a political disaster in the metropole; and (4) the 1902 eruption of Mount Pelée that killed over 30,000 people nearly instantaneously and cemented a postcolonial relationship characterized by dependence.

Colonialism and Sociolinguistics in Senegal 3 Abstract This research paper is for the completion of the International Studies Honors Program at Seattle University. This research traces the social and political legacies of French colonial linguistic assimilation policies in West Africa since the late 19th century to present, with a case study examining the sociolinguistic history, trends and tensions in Senegal. The research explores colonial policies’ implications on education, ideological movements, and cultural- national identity. This research relies on history of colonialism to understand how linguistic policies were used as part of a broader imperial project, and to what extent those policies reshaped social classes, political organization and public education, which were modeled after French systems. An examination of Senegal’s historical and current cultural, national, and linguistic identities is necessary in order to discern how French colonization shaped those identities and movements. Ultimately, the language of all European colonial powers undermined the legitimacy of indigenous African languages.
