  • University Education Finance and Cost Sharing in Nigeria: Considerations for Policy Direction
    0 University Education Finance and Cost Sharing in Nigeria: Considerations for Policy Direction 1Maruff A. Oladejo, 2Gbolagade M. Olowo, & 3Tajudeen A. Azees 1Department of Educational Management, University of Lagos, Akoka, 2Department of Educational Foundations, Federal College of Education (Sp), Oyo 3Department of Curriculum & Instructions, Emmanuel Alayande College of Education, Oyo 0 1 Abstract Higher education in general and university education in particular is an educational investment which brings with it, economic returns both for individuals and society. Hence, its proper funding towards the attainment of its lofty goals should be the collective responsibility of every stakeholders. This paper therefore discussed university education finance and cost sharing in Nigeria. The concepts of higher education and higher education finance were examined, followed by the philosophical and the perspectives of university education in Nigeria. The initiative of private funding of education vis-à-vis Tertiary Education Trust Fund (Tetfund) was brought to the fore. The paper further examined cost structure and sharing in Nigerian university system. It specifically described cost sharing as a shift in the burden of higher education costs from being borne exclusively or predominately by government, or taxpayers, to being shared with parents and students. Findings showed that Tetfund does not really provide for students directly. As regards students in private universities in Nigeria, and that private sector has never been involved in funding private universities. It was recommended among others that there is the need to re-engineer policies that will ensure effective financial accountability to prevent fiscal failure in Nigerian higher educational institutions, as well as policies which will ensure more effective community and individual participation such that government will be able to relinquish responsibility for maintaining large parts of the education system.

    Paper—Exploring the Constructive Alignment of Pedagogical Practices in Science and Engineering… Exploring the Constructive Alignment of Pedagogical Practices in Science and Engineering Education in Sub- Saharan African Universities: A Nigerian Case Study https://doi.org/10.3991/ijep.v11i2.15539 David Olubiyi Obada (*) Africa Center of Excellence on New Pedagogies in Engineering Education, Zaria, Nigeria [email protected] Olayinka Omowunmi Adewumi, Chika Yinka-Banjo University of Lagos, Akoka, Nigeria Amos Bajeh University of Ilorin, Ilorin, Nigeria Razak Alli-Oke Elizade University, Ondo, Nigeria Abstract—Improved pedagogical approaches in teaching science and engineering are crucial to solving the most pressing technological challenges faced in most developing countries especially in Sub-Saharan African Universities. Despite the avalanche of programs to train faculty members to fill this need, there is a need to conceptualize benchmarks for evaluating how teaching should be delivered to students in our institutions. The aim of this paper is to showcase how science and engineering courses can be taught in a more effective manner in our universities, with a pilot deep-dive into a few courses taught in the faculties of science and engineering in selected Nigerian Universities using the backward design approach. Five (5) case studies of undergraduate science and engineering courses were outlined and the backward design approach was used to put them into context. These case studies show how courses can be taught and assessed following three important steps. Distinct recommendations for science and engineering faculty members based on the outcome of this study are: defining clear learning objectives and outcomes, aligning assessment and evaluation methodologies, and constructively aligning all aspects of the curriculum and instructional materials.

  • By Hadiza Hafiz, Ph.D
    International Journal of Education and Research Vol. 7 No. 9 September 2019 FACTORS HINDERING ACCESS TO UNIVERSITY EDUCATION: IMPLICATION FOR ADMISSION IN NIGERIAN UNIVERSITIES By Hadiza Hafiz, Ph.D Department of Arts and Social Science Education, Faculty of Education Yusuf Maitama Sule University, Kano-Nigeria [email protected] Abstract University education being the basic instrument of economic growth and technological advancement in any country, demand for it has increased due to the recent policy of universal, free and compulsory education at the basic levels and also as a result of an increase in the college-age population, as well as an awareness of the role of university education in the development of the individual and the nation in general. This paper, therefore, examines issues and challenges of securing admission to Universities in Nigeria. To do this, efforts were made to examine the operation of university education in Nigeria, the concept of access in education, the federal government policies on admission, major factors that influence and impede access to university among others were discussed in the paper. In conclusion the paper revealed that despite the increase in the number of universities, the rate of admission is low compared to the number of applicants. This is as a result of impediments to access and management of admission in the universities. Based on that, the paper recommends for the establishment of more universities to meet the needs of those yearning for University education. More academic staff should be employed, and to make admission twice in a year as it has been done in many countries.
