SCHOOLING and NATIONAL INTEGRATION in CAMEROON by GRACE MARY ELAD Thesis Submitted in Fulfilment of the Requirements for The SCHOOLING AND NATIONAL INTEGRATION IN CAMEROON By GRACE MARY ELAD Thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Institute of Education University of London December 1982 Department of Education in Developing Countries Department of Child and Educational Psychology. DEDICATED to my mother Anna Abamut Elad and my father Philip Mfontem Elad whose moral and financial support has been responsible for the completion of this STUDY. ABSTRACT This study examines the effects of the level of schooling on National integration in English-speaking Cameroon. National integration is con- ceptualised as the creation of an individual's sense of identification and loyalty to the nation and his willingness to accept and integrate voluntarily with one's fellow citizens irrespective of their cultural or ethnic differences. The main hypothesis adopted for the investigation (there will be a significant increase in positive attitudes towards National integration from primary to secondary and from secondary to post-secondary education) was confirmed. However, a Step-wise Multiple Regression Analysis of all the variables indicated that urbanization and not levels of educational attainment is a better predictor of National integration as far as this study is concerned. Four scales, the Nationalism scale, the Friendship Choice scale, the Language Choice scale and the Language Use scale. A questionnaire was used to obtain data from 491 randomly selected subjects from primary, secondary and post-secondary students and also from the adult population. In addition to the demographic facts, the questionnaire used was composed of four scales, three behavioural and an attitude scale of the Likert type. These scales were modified in the field after the pilot study. The data obtained from these instruments were analysed by Gutman scale analysis, Pearson-product Moment Correlations, one way analysis of variance, factor analysis, multivariate analysis of variance and a step- wise multiple regression analysis. Comparisons were made between groups of- students categorised by various demographic and educational factors (e.g. age, levels of education, urbanization etc.) in order to demonstrate the schools foster a positive attitude towards integration and to dis— cover the most effective variable that influences national integration. (v) ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I am indebted to a number of people for help and advice at various stages during the preparation of this thesis; to the headmasters and their pupils, the principals of secondary schools and their students who completed the questionnaire from which most of the data for this study was derived; to Professor P. R. C. Williams of the Department of Education in Developing Countries who also helped with criticism of the manuscript. But, above all, to my two supervisors, Dr. C. B. W. Treffgarne EDC and Dr. F. T. Taylor DCEP whose untiring assistance, encouragement and useful suggestions sustained me and contributed immensely to the completion of this study and to my husband Dr. M. A. Abangma for his loving support and encouragement.

  • Bernander Et Al AAM NEC in Bantu
    The negative existential cycle in Bantu1 Bernander, Rasmus, Maud Devos and Hannah Gibson Abstract Renewal of negation has received ample study in Bantu languages. Still, the relevant literature does not mention a cross-linguistically recurrent source of standard negation, i.e., the existential negator. The present paper aims to find out whether this gap in the literature is indicative of the absence of the Negative Existential Cycle (NEC) in Bantu languages. It presents a first account of the expression of negative existence in a geographically diverse sample of 93 Bantu languages. Bantu negative existential constructions are shown to display a high degree of formal variation both within dedicated and non-dedicated constructions. Although such variation is indicative of change, existential negators do not tend to induce changes at the same level as standard negation. The only clear cases of the spread of an existential negator to the domain of standard negation in this study appear to be prompted by sustained language contact. Keywords: Bantu languages, negation, language change, morphology 1 Introduction The Bantu language family comprises some 350-500 languages spoken across much of Central, Eastern and Southern Africa. According to Grollemund et al. (2015), these languages originate from a proto-variety of Bantu, estimated to have been spoken roughly 5000 years ago in the eastern parts of present-day northwest Cameroon. Many Bantu languages exhibit a dominant SVO word order. They are primarily head-marking, have a highly agglutinative morphology and a rich verbal complex in which inflectional and derivational affixes join to an obligatory verb stem. The Bantu languages are also characterised by a system of noun classes – a form of grammatical gender.

  • Some Principles of the Use of Macro-Areas Language Dynamics &A
    Online Appendix for Harald Hammarstr¨om& Mark Donohue (2014) Some Principles of the Use of Macro-Areas Language Dynamics & Change Harald Hammarstr¨om& Mark Donohue The following document lists the languages of the world and their as- signment to the macro-areas described in the main body of the paper as well as the WALS macro-area for languages featured in the WALS 2005 edi- tion. 7160 languages are included, which represent all languages for which we had coordinates available1. Every language is given with its ISO-639-3 code (if it has one) for proper identification. The mapping between WALS languages and ISO-codes was done by using the mapping downloadable from the 2011 online WALS edition2 (because a number of errors in the mapping were corrected for the 2011 edition). 38 WALS languages are not given an ISO-code in the 2011 mapping, 36 of these have been assigned their appropri- ate iso-code based on the sources the WALS lists for the respective language. This was not possible for Tasmanian (WALS-code: tsm) because the WALS mixes data from very different Tasmanian languages and for Kualan (WALS- code: kua) because no source is given. 17 WALS-languages were assigned ISO-codes which have subsequently been retired { these have been assigned their appropriate updated ISO-code. In many cases, a WALS-language is mapped to several ISO-codes. As this has no bearing for the assignment to macro-areas, multiple mappings have been retained. 1There are another couple of hundred languages which are attested but for which our database currently lacks coordinates.

  • A Recorded Text Survey of the Mfumte Speech Varieties and Rapid Appraisal Survey of Dzodinka
    DigitalResources Electronic Survey Report 2015-004 A Recorded Text Survey of the Mfumte Speech Varieties and Rapid Appraisal Survey of Dzodinka Greg L. McLean A Recorded Text Survey of the Mfumte Speech Varieties and Rapid Appraisal Survey of Dzodinka Greg L. McLean SIL International® 2015 SIL Electronic Survey Report 2015-004, February 2015 © 2015 SIL International® All rights reserved Abstract The purpose of this survey was to determine the language development needs of the Mfumte people. The Mfumte ‘people under the palms’ live in the North West Region of Cameroon and in Taraba State, Nigeria. A Rapid Appraisal (RA) survey and a Recorded Text Testing (RTT) survey were carried out as the continuation of an RA survey completed in 1994. There were two goals in this present survey: (1) to determine the potential extensibility of literature based on the Kwaja, Koffa, and Lus speech varieties to the surrounding communities and (2) to understand the language use patterns, vitality, attitudes, and inter-intelligibility in the neighbourhoods of Adere. Based on the results of the RA and RTT surveys, it is recommended that language development work be started in three speech varieties: Adere (Dzodinka [add]), Koffa, and Kwaja [kdz]. (Lus is already under development.) By identifying the language needs in the Mfumte area, work can proceed on creating orthographies, dictionaries, and other written materials.

These regions of Cameroon have been restive since 2016 in what is popularly referred to as the Anglophone crisis. The crisis has been transformed to a separatist movement, with some Anglophones clamoring for an independent No-So, re-baptized as “Ambazonia”. The purpose of the study is to illuminate the geopolitical perspective of the conflict which has been evaded by many scholars. Most scholarly write-ups have rather focused on the causes, course, consequences and international interventions in the crisis, with little attention to the geopolitical undertones. In terms of methodology, the paper makes use of qualitative data analysis. Unlike previous research works that link the unfolding of the crisis to Anglophone marginalization, historical and cultural difference, the findings from this paper reveals that the strategic location of No-So, the presence of resources, demographic considerations and other geopolitical parameters are proving to be responsible for the heightening of the Anglophone crisis in Cameroon and in favour of the quest for an independent Ambazonia.
