    Terms of Reference (ToR) Independent Evaluation of the Aktion Deutschland Hilft (ADH) joint appeal to “Rohingya Myanmar Bangladesh” 1. Introduction Aktion Deutschland Hilft (ADH) – Germany’s Relief Coalition is an alliance of 13 renowned German aid organisations founded in 2001. Together they provide humanitarian aid in the case of large catastrophes and emergency situations. The ADH Bonn office is commissioning an independent evaluation of ADH’s joint appeal “Rohingya Myanmar Bangladesh” to a) assess the implementation of the SPHERE core protection principles1 for staff and beneficiaries in its relief activities in Bangladesh, and b) draw recommendations to better support the planning of future programmes and projects. 2. Background On 25 August 2017 violence against the Muslim minority of the Rohingya in Rakhine State, Myanmar, escalated. This violence caused approx. 655,5002 Rohingya – 80 percent of them women and children - to flee across the Teknaf River to the district of Cox’s Bazar in neighbouring Bangladesh in less than three months, challenging international humanitarian response. 1 The Sphere Project Humanitarian Charter and Minimum Standards in Humanitarian Response (2011) [http://www.spherehandbook.org/en/introduction-1/] assessed 26 October 2018 2 UNHCR: Global Trends – Forced Displacement in 2017, page 18.

The appeal raised funds over 2.2 million EUR from which 9 organisations party to ADH requested funds for their emergency responses. During the first phase of the emergency the respective member organisations (MOs) provided lifesaving humanitarian assistance – among others – basic food assistance, shelter, water, emergency latrines, and non-food items (NFIs).

  • Effects of Pre-Theoretic Intuition Quiz and Puzzle
    EFFECTS OF PRE-THEORETIC INTUITION QUIZ AND PUZZLE-BASED CRITICAL THINKING MOTIVATION STRATEGIES ON STUDENTS’ LEARNING OUTCOMES IN SELECTED ENVIRONMENT-RELATED CONCEPTS IN BIOLOGY. BY OGUNDIWIN , OLUYEMI AKINLEYE MATRIC NO: 54489 B.SC (Agronomy); PGDE; M.Ed (Ibadan) A THESIS TO THE DEPARTMENT OF TEACHER EDUCATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF EDUCATION IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY (PH. D) IN SCIENCE EDUCATION OF THE UNIVERSITY OF IBADAN UNIVERSITY OF IBADAN LIBRARY 2013 i ABSTRACT The traditional instructional strategy employed by most biology teachers in teaching environment-related concepts have resulted in low learning outcomes. Two strategies have been proved in literature to have exposed students to a higher thinking order needed to recognise assumptions, evaluate controversies, and scrutinise inferences in alleviating the problem of low students‘ learning outcomes in biology, but they have not been utilised in the teaching of environmental concept in biology. This study, therefore, examined the effects of Pre-Theoretic Intuition Quiz (PTI) and Puzzle-Based Learning (PBL) on students learning outcomes in selected environment-related concepts in biology. The pretest-posttest control group quasi-experimental design with 3x2x2 factorial matrix was adopted. Four hundred and fifty one SS2 students from nine purposively selected senior secondary schools in three local government areas of Oyo State were used for the study. The schools were randomly assigned to experimental (PTI and PBL) and control (MCS) groups and the treatment lasted 14 weeks. Eight instruments were used: Instructional Guides for teachers; Students‘ Environmental Achievement Test (r=0.80), Students‘ Environmental Attitude Scale (r=0.81), Students‘ Environmental Practices Scale (r=0.82), Cognitive Style Test (r=0.81) and Assessment Sheet for evaluating research assistants.
