Realizing that low educational attainmentof the populationcombined with a shortage of skilled labor in specific sectors is a serious bottleneck to successful implementationof this strategy, the Government is committedto pursuing the developmentof its human resources at all levels. In a Human Resource Development Strategy presented at a Donor Round Table in November 1992, the Governmentproposed enhancing the lower and medium-levelskills of the active populationand the productivity of its labor force in three ways. First, by ensuring that all children receive at least six years of quality schooling, through the introduction, beginning in September 1994, of an integrated primary education cycle (EBI), that combines the two existing cycles, and expand a new curriculum. Second, by extending the coverage of secondary education and revising the content of the general academiccurriculum to increase the science and mathematics content. Third, by improving the relevance and quality of technical, vocational and professional training, in conjunctionwith improvingthe efficiencyof the labor markets. The proposed project would assist the Government in implementingthis strategy by: (i) supporting the infrastructural, pedagogic, and managerial improvements needed to introduce the revised integrated primary cycle nationally; (ii) improvingthe quality and relevance of the technical, vocational and professional training system to provide skills relevant to the labor market; and (iii) strengthening the institutional capacity to develop policies and implement programs for education, training, and employment. An African Development Bankproject is addressingquality improvementsin general secondary education. Specifically,the project would: 1. Establish nationwide the Integrated Basic Education System (EBI) by: (i) upgrading school infrastructure through a classroom construction and rehabilitation program, including the replacement of rented classrooms; (ii) upgrading and deploying primary school teachers; and (iii) establishing a sustainabletextbook supply and distribution system. ii 2. Improve the relevance of Technical Education and Training by: (i) improving the quality and relevance of technical secondary education by raising the entry level to completion of the first cycle of secondary education

Tel: 6-019-336-0146. E-mail: [email protected] Received: August 5, 2015 Accepted: October 9, 2015 Online Published: February 21, 2016 doi:10.5539/ies.v9n3p41 URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.5539/ies.v9n3p41 Abstract While many educational premises including higher learning institutions favor blended learning over traditional approach and merely online learning, some academicians are still apprehensive about teaching in blended learning. The aim of this review is to synthesize the available evidence in the literature on challenges faced in implementing blended learning as well as the recommendations or lessons learnt from the experience. Eight articles published between January 2010 and December 2013 were appraised. This review revealed that among the challenges faced by the instructors are increased workload and time devotion, lack of pedagogical and technical skills to conduct the program and difficulty in finding the right blend between face-to-face and online learning. The review also discovered the importance of staff training, support and networking as strategies to help instructors deal with such issues. Keywords: blended learning, higher learning institutions, literature review 1. Introduction Education and learning is a dynamic field. In previous decades, it has always been associated with the physical presence of schools, classrooms, examination halls, teachers, textbooks and examinations (Eddy, Nor-Aziah, & Jasmine, 2014, p.

  • THE LANGUAGE DEBATE in CAPE VERDE a Thesis Presented to The
    THE LANGUAGE DEBATE IN CAPE VERDE A thesis presented to the faculty of the Center for International Studies of Ohio University In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Master of Arts Patrick J. Coonan June 2007 This thesis entitled THE LANGUAGE DEBATE IN CAPE VERDE by PATRICK J. COONAN has been approved for the Center for International Studies by __________________________________________________ Ann R. Tickamyer Professor of Sociology and Anthropology __________________________________________________ Drew McDaniel Interim Director, Center for International Studies Abstract COONAN, PATRICK J., M.A., June 2007, International Development Studies THE LANGUAGE DEBATE IN CAPE VERDE (138 pp.) Director of Thesis: Ann R. Tickamyer In many countries around the world, controversy surrounds state policy on language. The West African archipelago of Cape Verde is no exception. Ever since the country’s independence from Portugal in 1975, a movement of bilingual Cape Verdeans has spearheaded planning efforts for the national language (Cape Verdean Creole) in an attempt to build the case for making that language the country’s co-official language. Nevertheless, these individuals face resistance from other Cape Verdeans who view the project as an attempt to marginalize the current official language (Portuguese) and/or certain regional dialects of Cape Verdean Creole. This study looks at texts taken from the discourse of language policy in Cape Verde in order to identify the language ideologies, i.e. “sets of beliefs about language articulated by users as a rationalization or justification of perceived language structure or use” (Silverstein, 1979, p.497), that Cape Verdeans use to support or to resist certain language policy and planning options.

  • Bilingualism, Portuguese L2 Learning and Educational Success in the Portuguese School
    Bilingualism, Portuguese L2 learning and educational success in the Portuguese school Currently portuguese schools are characterized by a rich linguistic and cultural diversity. The work experience gained in the project Diversity in the Portuguese School proved to be an inexhaustible source of knowledge, which led to a need for more research in this area. Therefore, following this project, Bilinguism, Portuguese L2 learning and educational success in the Portuguese school began in July 2007 with a duration of 60 months. The project now underway aims to contribute to the educational integration of students who do not have Portuguese as their mother tongue and to find methodological answers conducive to the educational achievement of these students. The project consists of two separate but converging domains: • Development of methodologies for second language learning and the creation of adequate materials for teaching Portuguese as a second language; • Implementation of bilingual Portuguese-Cape Verdian teaching in a bilingual basic education class. a) Development of methodologies and creation of adequate materials for teaching Portuguese as a second language I - Principles Controlled experimentation Due to a relatively recent experience, the Portuguese school is still looking for ways to teach Portuguese as a second language. This allows, in our view, the trial of specific strategies of both foreign language teaching or mother language teaching, considering the necessary adaptation to context and situation. Fundamentally, the aim is to support the students language and academic development through the learning of the language of school at school, recoursing to strategies that should involve teachers of other subjects. This is an issue that we consider central to the investigation.

  • African Voices Spell out a Harsh Reality: a Case-Study of English As International Language at a Portuguese University
    International Journal of Humanities and Social Science Vol. 4, No. 7; May 2014 African Voices Spell out a Harsh Reality: a Case-Study of English as International Language at a Portuguese University Rita Amorim Assistant Professor ISCSP, CAPP and CEAF Universidade Lisboa Lisboa, Portugal. Isabel Soares Assistant Professor ISCSP, CAPP and CEAF Universidade Lisboa Lisboa, Portugal. Abstract This article examines the plight of African students taking their degree in Portugal, by uncovering their problems and reactions to learning English. When students from Portuguese-speaking African countries arrive at ISCSP, Universidade de Lisboa, they are met with the need to learn today’s international language of academic and professional contexts: English. However, they find themselves at a disadvantage in relation to their Portuguese counterparts because they have usually had less years of English study. This study shows that despite feeling and revealing many difficulties when learning English, African students believe this subject is useful and should be compulsory. The study concludes that there is no significant difference between the learning problems showed by African-origin students who come to ISCSP directly from Africa and those who concluded secondary education in Portugal. Moreover, the data also revealed that in the comparison with Portuguese students, African-origin ones do show less preparation to take an English-learning course at college. Keywords: English as international language, African students, Higher education in Portugal Introduction By listening to the voices of African students taking their degrees in Portugal, this study uncovers the harsh reality of those who have to study a language which in Europe, and in most of the world, is taken for granted as the international lingua franca, in itself a legacy of former imperialist times when Britain ruled over a quarter of the world’s surface.

  • Cape Verde Teacher Profile: from the Global Education Agenda (S) to National Policies
    International Journal of Science and Research (IJSR) ISSN: 2319-7064 ResearchGate Impact Factor (2018): 0.28 | SJIF (2018): 7.426 Cape Verde Teacher Profile: From the Global Education Agenda (S) to National Policies Arlinda Cabral1 1Lusophone University, CeiED - Interdisciplinary Research Centre for Education and Development, Campo Grande, 376, 1749•024 Lisboa, Portugal Arlindacabral[at]gmail.com Abstract: In contemporary societies, the development of education systems, based on national needs and priorities and using international indicators and methodologies for information gathering and evaluation, is a field of study. At the same time, it faces the definition of common global objectives to be achieved through national, bilateral, regional and international efforts. Teacher education is implicit in the latest global agenda, the United Nations Agenda 2030. Similarly, UNESCO has provided technical assistance in this area, the OECD has published reports on teacher evaluation and the World Bank has developed studies on teacher training and professional development. This paper aims to analyze the influence of international agendas on the (re) design of the profile of the Cape Verdean teacher for the 21st century. Based on the documentary and comparative analysis, it is clear that Cape Verde has invested in teacher education as a post-independence national policy and subsequently reinforced with the adoption of global agendas. But initial and continuing training remains a priority given the number of qualified teachers, the geographical concentration of teacher training structures and the recent construction of the mass school. Keywords: Educational policies, globalization, teacher training, Cape Verde 1. Introduction consequently, of the affirmation of the nation state '(idem, ibidem).
