  • Indicators of Neo-Colonialism at the O-Level Curriculum Education in Uganda
    International Journal of Innovative Education Research 5(3):1-17, July-Sept., 2017 © SEAHI PUBLICATIONS, 2017 www.seahipaj.org ISSN: 2354-2942 Indicators of Neo-Colonialism at the O-Level Curriculum Education in Uganda 1,2*MULEKE PAUL, BETTY EZATI1, MOURICE TAMALE1 1College of Education and External Studies, School of Education, Makerere University, Kampala Uganda 2School of Education, Arts Education, University of Kisubi Entebbe, Uganda *E-mail Address of Corresponding author: [email protected] ABSTRACT The study established the indicators of Neo-colonialism at the O-level curriculum Education in Uganda. A descriptive survey research design was used in the study. A total sample population of 316 participated in the study which included 8 officials from National Curriculum Development Centre (NCDC), 4 District education officers from Gulu, Mbarara, Jinja and Kampala Capital City Authority, 8 policymakers and administrators from the Ministry of Education and Sports who were purposively selected respectively and 296 secondary teachers who were selected using simple random sampling technique. Data was collected using a self administered questionnaire, interview guide, documentary analysis guide, and observation checklist. The study findings showed that indicators of Neo-colonialism had an influence on educational curriculum at O-level Education in Uganda. It was therefore concluded that educational curriculum at O-level Education in Uganda does not fully suit the needs of the local people because it is indirectly influenced by Neo-colonialism which makes the indigenous people benefit less compared to the developed countries. It was recommended that, teacher‟s preparation should emphasize skills development rather than the knowledge acquisition to avoid dependency syndrome.

  • 1. Introduction
    1. Introduction 1.1 Background to the Case Study This report presents a case study on bicycles, women and rural transport in Uganda. It is the result of field work carried out in the Mbale and Tororo districts of eastern Uganda during a three-week visit in September 1991. The case study forms part of the Rural Travel and Transport Project (RTTP) of the World Bank- financed Sub-Saharan Africa Transport Program (SSATP), a major research program covering transport in SSA. One aspect of this program is the RTTP, which is designed to focus on transport at the level where it has the most direct influence on economic (particularly agricultural) and social development in rural areas of SSA. One of the key aims of the RTTP is to recommend approaches to the improvement of rural transport services, and to the adoption of intermediate technologies to increase personal mobility and agricultural production. This research is being conducted through Village-Level Transport and Travel Surveys (VLTTS) and related case studies. The World Bank has commissioned the International Labor Organization, in collaboration with I.T. Transport, to execute the VLTTS and the related case studies under the RTTP. 1.2 General Objectives of the Case Study The objective of the case study is to investigate two key aspects of rural mobility and accessibility focusing on: (i) The role of intermediate means of transport (IMT) in improving mobility, and the institutional and implementation policy requirements necessary for developing the use of IMT; and (ii) The role of transport in women's daily lives, - given that a major part of the transport burden falls on women in addition to their substantial agricultural and domestic responsibilities, and the impact of improvements in mobility and accessibility upon women.
