In terms of education, this means providing universal quality basic education by 2015. This project is the first 5-year phase of this long term endeavor, which is one of in-depth policy and institutional reforms. Its objective is to ensure that the framework for quality universal basic education is in place and ready for implementation. It places an emphasis on developing an effective partnership between the State and the communities, creating a national technical capacity for curricula and textbook development, and improving basic education quality and efficiency. At the end of the project, these objectives will translate into stronger institutional and managerial capacity, increased enrollment rates, more equitable access and better education quality and efficiency. Revised Project Development Objectives (as approved by original approving authority) The Project Development objective is to (i) improve access and equity for primary education, and (ii) increase capacity in strategic management and curriculum development.

E-mail: [email protected] Received: August 23, 2020 Accepted: October 3, 2020 Online Published: October 29, 2020 doi:10.5539/ijel.v10n6p410 URL: https://doi.org/10.5539/ijel.v10n6p410 Abstract Although French and Arabic are the official languages of Chad, for the past twenty years Chadian learners and users of English have been having a strong interest in the language. Their number in Cameroonian, Nigerian, Ghanaian and Sudanese universities as well as in linguistic centres in N’Djamena testifies to this. It can be said that the petrol boom in the country has really changed the attitudes of Chadians towards English. They see in it the language of opening and opportunities. Given that in most major languages there are accents and variants, and most especially with English the lingua franca of the 21st century, it is important to know those learners’/users’ preferred variety (ies). This paper thus aims to know which variety (ies) of English Chadian learners/users prefer to hear or speak. The data was gathered through a questionnaire administered to 106 university students, 97 secondary school learners, 18 English language teachers and 29 workers of other sectors (N = 250). Results show that most Chadian learners/users prefer American or British English and a good percentage of them favour Ghanaian or Cameroon English.

    PEACEBUILDING, EDUCATION AND ADVOCACY IN CONFLICT-AFFECTED CONTEXTS PROGRAMME UNICEF Programme Report 2012-2016 Acknowledgements The Peacebuilding, Education and Advocacy in Conflict-Affected Contexts (PBEA) Programme Report summarizes processes, results and learning that occurred during the entire course of the PBEA programme – Learning for Peace – from 1 December 2011 through 30 June 2016. The Programme Report was written by Ritesh Shah, Faculty of Education and Social Work, University of Auckland; Elizabeth Maber, Institute for Social Science Research, University of Amsterdam; Mieke Lopes Cardozo, Institute for Social Science Research, University of Amsterdam; and Roseanne Paterson, Faculty of Education and Social Work, University of Auckland. It draws extensively on reports produced by the 14 participating UNICEF country offices, five regional offices, a total of nine headquarters sections, units or divisions, and partners engaged in the programme. These documents were systematically coded and analysed for this report. This evidence was supplemented by a review of an extensive body of research produced within and outside the auspices of the programme. Members of the Learning for Peace Programme Management Team, along with other technical advisers and experts at UNICEF headquarters, provided additional insight and analysis. The report team thanks everyone who contributed input and expertise. UNICEF gratefully acknowledges the contribution of its partners at all levels for programme implementation and documentation efforts over the course of Learning for Peace. This includes numerous government representatives and partner organizations in the countries and regions where the programme operated. A special word of thanks is given to the Government of the Netherlands, whose vision and commitment not only helped support changes in the field of education and peacebuilding, but also positively impacted the lives of millions of children in conflict-affected contexts.

They also indicated gaining a greater awareness of student development, enabling them to more successfully tailor their interactions.

  • ICT in Education in Chad by Babacar Fall May 2007
    SURVEY OF ICT AND EDUCATION IN AFRICA: Chad Country Report ICT in Education in Chad by Babacar Fall May 2007 Please note: This short Country Report, a result of a larger infoDev-supported Survey of ICT in Education in Africa, provides a general overview of current activities and issues related to ICT use in education in the country. The data presented here should be regarded as illustrative rather than exhaustive. ICT use in education is at a particularly dynamic stage in Africa; new developments and announcements happening on a daily basis somewhere on the continent. Therefore, these reports should be seen as “snapshots” that were current at the time they were taken; it is expected that certain facts and figures presented may become dated very quickly. The findings, interpretations and conclusions expressed herein are entirely those of the author(s) and do not necessarily reflect the view of infoDev, the Donors of infoDev, the World Bank and its affiliated organizations, the Board of Executive Directors of the World Bank or the governments they represent. The World Bank cannot guarantee the accuracy of the data included in this work. The boundaries, colors, denominations, and other information shown on any map in this work do not imply on the part of the World Bank any judgment of the legal status of any territory or the endorsement or acceptance of such boundaries. It is expected that individual Country Reports from the Survey of ICT and Education in Africa will be updated in an iterative process over time based on additional research and feedback received through the infoDev web site.
