  • Education in Africa: What Are We Learning?
    Education in Africa: What Are We Learning? David K. Evans and Amina Mendez Acosta Abstract Countries across Africa continue to face major challenges in education. In this review, we examine 142 recent empirical studies (from 2014 onward) on how to increase access to and improve the quality of education across the continent, specifically examining how these studies update previous research findings. We observe growing sophistication in the design of studies and an increase in studies with long-term outcomes. We identify several areas where new studies provide rigorous evidence on topics that do not figure prominently in earlier evidence syntheses. New evidence shows promising impacts of structured pedagogy interventions (which typically provide a variety of inputs, such as lesson plans and training for teachers together with new materials for students) and of mother tongue instruction interventions, as well as from a range of teacher programs, including both remunerative (pay-for-performance of various designs) and non-remunerative (coaching and certain types of training) programs. School feeding delivers gains in both access and learning. New studies also show long-term positive impacts of eliminating school fees for primary school and positive impacts of eliminating fees in secondary school. Education technology interventions have decidedly mixed impacts, as do school grant programs and programs providing individual learning inputs (e.g., uniforms or textbooks).

The public education sector lacks the trained professionals and multidisciplinary coordination needed to meet the needs of handicapped students. This paper will analyze impact of a private therapeutic preschool to determine the feasibility of social entrepreneurship in fulfilling unmet special education needs in Tunisia. A presentation of the limitations facing entrepreneurs in this sector is included, and special attention is given to financial and social restraints preventing the scholastic integration of these children.

  • Education in the Middle East and North Africa: the Current Situation and Future Challenges
    International Education Journal Vol 5, No 2, 2004 http://iej.cjb.net 144 Education in the Middle East and North Africa: The Current Situation and Future Challenges Abdeljalil Akkari Higher Pedagogical Institute HEP-BEJUNE, Switzerland [email protected] This paper investigates the educational development in the Middle East and North Africa, drawing on data from different international and national institutions. The paper begins with a review of similarities between countries within the region, and continues by investigating the situation of basic education, literacy rates and quality of education. In the third section, issues of inequality between public and private education are discussed. The paper concludes by outlining future educational challenges in the region. Comparative education, Middle East, North Africa, development, literacy, basic education INTRODUCTION Human capital formation is receiving increased attention from policy makers and scholars interested in promoting economic development in Third World countries. Models of endogenous economic growth stress the importance of investment in knowledge, including basic education, as a critical factor in economic expansion. Specialists have long argued that education should form a principal component in any development strategy. The Middle East and North Africa form a vast region stretching from the Atlantic Ocean to the Arab- Persian Gulf. The historical and cultural experiences of the region's countries share many common themes. First, Islam as the main religion and Arabic as the language are key factors in the identity formation of the region. In the nineteenth and the first half of the twentieth centuries, most of the region was under European colonization. When colonization ended, a strong economic, cultural and political dependence on developed countries remained.
