Impact des allocations en ressources sur l'efficacité des écoles primaires en Côte d'Ivoire
2011
The quality of primary education in Côte d'Ivoire has deteriorated sharply over the past three decades. This situation is the result of an approximate management of the education system, which is characterized by a lack of educational support, a misallocation of resources, a congestion of classrooms (42 students for a teacher in primary school) and a lack of skilled and well trained teachers. In addition, the military-political conflict in September 2002 did not allow to improve this situation; on the contrary, it has further deteriorated the situation. Thus, the aim of this thesis is first to analyze the influence of resource endowments on the effectiveness of primary schools in Cote d'Ivo…

Subsidization of higher education versus expansion of primary enrollments : what can a shift of resources achieve in Sub-Saharan Africa ?
1985
International audience; In many LDCs today, the distribution of public resources for education tends to be inefficient and inequitable in that subsidization often increases rather than decreases with the level of education. To improve efficiency and equity, a shift of resources from higher to primary education should therefore be considered. Such a shift would obviously imply an increase in the private cost of higher education, but its effect could be mitigated through a loan scheme. In this paper, our main purpose is to show what a cut in subsidies to higher education can achieve in terms of expanding primary enrollments. The results show that although the outcome differs from country to c…
THE CREATIVITY AND RESILIENCE DEVELOPMENT PROJECT (CRDP) TO INVESTIGATE LEARNING PRACTICE IN THE USE OF ICT
2016
Much research has demonstrated that students' cognitive characteristics as general mental ability or prior level of achievement do explain a substantial proportion of the variance in subsequent achievement, but only more recently has research focused on relationships between cognitive characteristics of students and the process variables of classroom behaviour. In conceptualizations of teaching-learning situations, cognitive characteristics of students are seen as one cluster of determinants of the interactive and learning processes established in the classroom. The researchers suggest that flexibility is central to creative adaptation. The centrality of flexibility to creative adaptation a…

2016
The aim of the present study is to determine the treatment given to the pictures of the body and physical activity in Physical Education’s textbooks for Primary School. The sample consists of 997 images of nine textbooks published by five publishers. A descriptive analysis was performed on the variables gender, age, race, and somatotype that refer to the body, and type, scope, space, and level of practice referred to physical activity.

However, the scope and level of elitist physical activity disappeared from manuals, w…

Η πρωτοβάθμια εκπαίδευση πασχίζει να συμβαδίσει με τις νέες κοινωνικοοικονομικές ανάγκες και να προετοιμάσει τους δημιουργικούς πολίτες του μέλλοντος. Αν και οι εκπαιδευτικοί της πρωτοβάθμιας εκπαίδευσης παίζουν καθοριστικό ρόλο, άλλοτε θετικό και άλλοτε αρνητικό, στην καλλιέργεια της δημιουργικότητας των μαθητών, λίγες έρευνες έχουν διεξαχθεί σχετικά με τη συμβολή τους στην καλλιέργεια της δημιουργικής σκέψης των μαθητών και τις απόψεις τους για το θέμα αυτό. Η θεμελιωμένη γνώση (situated knowledge) των Ελλήνων εκπαιδευτικών πρωτοβάθμιας εκπαίδευσης και η εμπειρί…
