  • Evaluation of a Quality Assurance Framework for Promoting Quality Research, Innovation and Development in Higher Education Institutions in Zimbabwe
    Journal of the British Academy, 9(s1), 127–157 DOI https://doi.org/10.5871/jba/009s1.127 Posted 1 April 2021 Evaluation of a quality assurance framework for promoting quality research, innovation and development in higher education institutions in Zimbabwe Evelyn Chiyevo Garwe, Juliet Thondhlana and Amani Saidi Abstract: In the spirit of quality assurance, this paper presents a self-evaluation and peer review of the external quality assurance framework for research implemented by the national quality assurance agency for Zimbabwe. Documentary analysis and semi-structured interviews were used to develop a self-evaluation report which was then subjected to international peer review as is the norm in quality assurance evaluations. The evidence from self-evaluation indicates that the quality assurance framework generated significant improvement in the quality and quantity of research with gaps identified in doctoral training and supportive structures for research. Peer review recommended the inclusion of a performance-based research funding arrange- ment akin to the Research Excellence Framework (REF) used in the United Kingdom whilst throwing caution on the contentious nature of the REF. The paper recommends the development, implementation, and review of quality assurance frameworks for research to guide institutions, enhance research, and to maintain consistency and harmony in the research system. These findings can be adapted by different national quality assurance agencies involved in the regulation, promotion, and enhancement of the

  • Media Monitoring: Extract of Press News on Higher Education in Africa
    Issue 14 Media Monitoring: Extract of Press News on Higher Education in Africa 1. University World News Report highlights global trend towards higher Education cost sharing (Africa) As enrolment in higher learning institutions has been growing steadily driven by improved student progression rates and higher numbers of part-time students, governments around the world, including those in Africa, are finding ways to shift the cost burden, according to a recent United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation (UNESCO) report. UNESCO’s Global Education Monitoring report 2017-18 report titled Accountability in Education: Meeting our commitments was launched on 13 May at the recent Conference of African Ministers of Finance, Planning and Economic Development in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. The Global Education Monitoring Report is a mechanism for monitoring and reporting on Sustainable Development Goal Four and on education in the other Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). It is premised on the view that while responsibility for education is a collective one, accountability starts with governments which are the primary duty bearers of the right to education. The report argues that a lack of accountability risks jeopardising progress and allows harmful practices to become embedded in education systems. Director of UNESCO International Institute for Capacity Building in Africa, Yumiko Yokozeki, said the report shows that two strategies are commonly adopted by countries in the wake of increased higher education enrolment: the introduction of or increase in tuition fees to make up for reduced government allocations to universities; and encouragement of the private sector in the provision of degree programmes. This diversified enrolment options while allowing government to concentrate on the public system.

The resultant after-shocks invariably undermine income and employment prospects, exacerbating inequalities, in particular for vulnerable groups within societies. The COVID 19 pandemic, whose effects and devastation have been felt across all parts of the world, have magnified pre-existing differences in economic and social conditions of the vulnerable citizenry.

  • University Students' Perceptions on Effectiveness of Female Lecturers
    Journal of Culture, Society and Development www.iiste.org ISSN 2422-8400 An International Peer-reviewed Journal Vol.8, 2015 University Students’ Perceptions on Effectiveness of Female Lecturers in Zimbabwe Barbra Mapuranga 1 Tom Tom 2 Kudzai Chiwanza 3 Maxwell C.C. Musingafi 4* 1. Zimbabwe Open University, Disability Studies, Mashonaland East 2. Zimbabwe Open University, Development Studies, Harare National Office 3. Zimbabwe Open University, Library and Information Sciences, Harare 4. Zimbabwe Open University, Development Studies, Harare Regional Campus * E-mail of the corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract In this study we address pertinent cultural issues in the academia: the influence of upbringing and cultural contextual factors on perception and attitude to human relationships and capabilities. In the study we examine the perception of both male and female university students on the competence of their female lecturers. We randomly sampled two universities in Zimbabwe for this study: one state university and one private university. Although the study was guided by the mixed research design, the dominant approach to data collection and analysis was the qualitative design. In fact, the qualitative design was the most appropriate approach in dealing with perceptions, emotions and feelings. The study establishes that, on average, university (male and female) students rate their female lecturers lowly when compared to their rating of male lecturers. We thus conclude that students look down upon female lecturers and view them as ineffective. This perception has been found to be a result of culture and socialisation. There is therefore need to de-socialise and re-socialise children and youth so that they grow up with positive attitudes towards women and their capabilities in their communities.

  • Identifying Credible Institutions in SADC Updated: May 2017
    Identifying credible institutions in SADC Updated: May 2017 Introduction At a meeting of the SADC Technical Committee on Certification and Accreditation (TCCA) in September 2016, TCCA members agreed to make available a list of credible institutions in SADC. At an April 2017 TCCA meeting, members decided that the format of this information would be made available as follows: A description of what a credible institution is; Links/ websites where the relevant information about the credible institutions can be found; and They would not make the list available on the SADC site as this would require regional updating when the information changes, new institutions are recognised and/or existing institutions lose their recognition status. How to use this page The TCCA members has submitted information on how to recognise credible institutions in their countries. They have also provided various web links to information about institutions in their countries. You would need to open the country page to access the information. Updating information The information on this page is up-to-date as of May 2017. The TCCA member in the respective countries has the responsibility of updating the information on their country's page as listed here. Each country also has the responsibility of ensuring that the information on their own websites, is current and accurate. 1 Angola Quick guide to identifying credible institutions in Angola Updated: May 2017 No information was available at the time of this update. 2 Botswana Quick guide to identifying credible institutions in Botswana Updated: May 2017 Acronyms and names BQA Botswana Qualifications Authority ETPs Education and Training Providers HE Higher Education NCQF National Credit and Qualifications Framework TVET Technical and Vocational Education and Training 1.
