Social Media Use and Prevalence of Domestic Violence among Married Persons in Rivers State
type: item
description: This study examined social media use and the prevalence of domestic violence among married persons in Rivers State. The study was guided by four objectives, research questions and corresponding null hypotheses, which examined the relationships between WhatsApp, Facebook, TikTok and Instagram use and the prevalence of domestic violence among married persons in Rivers State. The study adopted a correlational research design. The population comprised married persons in Rivers State, whose exact population was considered unknown because there was no unified register containing all married persons in the State. A sample of 400 married persons was selected through a multistage sampling procedure. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire titled Social Media Use and Domestic Violence Questionnaire (SMUDVQ), which was validated by experts and subjected to reliability testing using Cronbach's Alpha. Data were analysed using Pearson Product-Moment Correlation at the 0.05 level of significance. The findings revealed that WhatsApp use had a positive and significant relationship with the prevalence of domestic violence among married persons in Rivers State (r = 0.214, p < 0.05). Facebook use also had a positive and significant relationship with domestic violence (r = 0.287, p < 0.05). Similarly, TikTok use had a positive and significant relationship with domestic violence (r = 0.176, p < 0.05), while Instagram use had a positive and significant relationship with domestic violence (r = 0.231, p < 0.05). Based on these findings, all four null hypotheses were rejected. The study concluded that social media use is significantly associated with the prevalence of domestic violence among married persons in Rivers State. It recommended, among other measures, the integration of responsible social media use into marital counselling and domestic violence prevention programmes.

Environmental Literacy As Adult Education Program For Climate Change Adaptation By Farmers In Rivers State
type: item
description: This study examined environmental literacy as adult education program for climate change adaptation by farmers in Rivers State. The research was guided by three research objectives andthree research questions. The population of this study consists of 6,370 registered farmers with the Agricultural Development Office in Rivers State. Proportionate-random sampling technique was used to draw 1,274 farmers representing 20% of the total population used for the study. Questionnaire on Environmental Literacy Adult Education Programmes and Climate Change Adaptation By Farmers in Rivers State (ELAEPCCAF) was used for data collection. A reliability coefficient of 0.75 was obtained using test re-test method. Only 1,132 (89%) copies of questionnaire were returned and correctly filled by the respondents, as such, only that number was used for the data analysis using mean and standard deviation scores. Results showed that climate change has negative impacts on farming activities and crop yields in Rivers State. The application of organic manure, the use of ashes on the plants to prevent much of climate change on the farmlands, amongst others are the traditional efforts made by the farmers to adapt to negative impacts of climate change.

Socio-Economic Factors on Academic Adjustment of Undergraduate Students of Ignatius Ajuru University of Education
type: item
description: This study examined the influence of socio-economic factors on the academic adjustment of undergraduate students at Ignatius Ajuru University of Education, Rivers State. The investigation was guided by three research objectives and three hypotheses designed to determine the extent to which socio-economic variables influence students’ adjustment on university academic life. A descriptive survey research design was adopted for the study. The population comprised all undergraduate students of Ignatius Ajuru University of Education with an estimated student population of about 25,000 students according to higher education enrollment records (www.unirank.org/ng/), from which a sample of 200 students was selected using a stratified random sampling technique to ensure adequate representation across faculties and levels of study. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire titled Socio-Economic Factors on Academic Adjustment Questionnaire (SEFAAQ). The instrument was validated by experts in Educational Psychology and Measurement and Evaluation to ensure content and face validity. Reliability was established using Cronbach’s Alpha, which produced a coefficient of 0.82, indicating good internal consistency of the instrument. The data collected were analyzed using descriptive statistics such as frequency and percentage, as well as inferential statistics including independent t-test. All hypotheses were tested at a 0.05 level of significance. Findings from the study revealed that socio-economic factors including family income, parental education, housing conditions, and access to learning resources significantly influence students’ academic adjustment. The results further indicated that students from higher socio-economic backgrounds tend to exhibit better academic adjustment compared to their counterparts from lower socio-economic backgrounds. In addition, family income and parental education were found to be strong predictors of academic adjustment among undergraduat…

Assessing the Numeracy Performance of Kindergarten Learners Exposed to Number Sense Activities
type: item
description: This research assesses the implementation of number sense activities and the numeracy performance of kindergarten learners at Tabok Elementary School 1 in Mandaue City for the school year 2025–2026, as a basis for a proposed Numeracy Skills Enhancement Plan. The study used a descriptive-correlational research design and utilized a teacher survey questionnaire and an adapted numeracy performance test. The data were analyzed using frequency percentages, weighted means, Pearson Product-Moment Correlation (r), and multiple linear regression. Findings revealed that number sense activities such as number recognition, counting skills, and basic operations were highly implemented, while number comparison was less consistently emphasized. Learners demonstrated satisfactory performance across most numeracy domains; however, difficulties were observed, particularly in number-comparison skills. Statistical analysis showed a significant relationship between implementing number sense activities and learners’ numeracy performance, indicating that effective instructional practices contribute to improved mathematical skills. The study highlights the need for teachers to strengthen targeted number-sense activities, particularly number comparison, and to use more structured, hands-on, and engaging strategies in early mathematics instruction. It further emphasizes the importance of consistent implementation and monitoring of numeracy activities. Future research may explore additional variables such as instructional strategies, learning environments, and learner engagement to enhance early numeracy development.

Institutional Autonomy and Teacher Preparation: A Case for Independent Teacher Education Institutions in South-South, Nigeria
type: item
description: This study investigated the relationship between institutional autonomy and teacher preparation in teacher education institutions in South-South Nigeria in order to make a case for teacher education institutions that are independent. Adopted correlational survey design and the study was carried out in the six states of the South-South geopolitical zone. Four research questions and corresponding four hypotheses guided the study. The population included the 17,427 stakeholders namely provosts / deans, heads of departments, lecturers and final year students from the Colleges of Education and the Faculties of Education. The sample size of 600 respondents was selected using multi-stage sampling technique from six purposively selected institutions. The data was gathered by a validated questionnaire, entitled “Institutional Autonomy and Teacher Preparation Questionnaire” (IATPQ) and has a Cronbach's alpha reliability coefficient of 0.83. Pearson Product Moment Correlation and One-way ANOVA were used to analyze the data. The results showed that academic autonomy had a positive statistically significant relationship with the quality of teacher preparation (r = 0.277; p < 0.001), administrative autonomy with innovation in teacher preparation programmes (r = 0.455; p < 0.001), and financial autonomy with the effectiveness of teacher preparation (r = 0.392; p < 0.001). The overall mean scores of the stakeholders showed positive perceptions regarding the need and feasibility of independent teacher education institutions (ITEIs), F(3,574) = 17.395, p < 0.001, but there were significant differences among stakeholder groups. The study finds that increased autonomy in the academic, administrative, and financial aspects of teacher preparation could significantly improve in the region the quality of teacher preparation, the innovation of teacher education, and effectiveness. It suggests giving more autonomy to Colleges of Education and step towards a balanced regulatory system to resp…

Demographic Differences in Sources of Marital Conflicts Among Public Secondary School Teachers in Rivers State, Nigeria—Implications for Counselling
type: item
description: Marital conflict is a pervasive challenge that can negatively affect personal wellbeing, family stability, and professional effectiveness, particularly among teachers who experience high occupational demands. This study examined demographic differences in sources of marital conflict among public senior secondary school teachers in Rivers State, Nigeria. Specifically, it investigated whether school type, gender, and school location influence the extent to which lack of communication, behavioural problems, and insufficient time with spouse serve as sources of marital conflict. The study adopted a survey research design, sampling 366 teachers through a multi-stage technique, with 342 valid responses analyzed. Data were collected using a self-constructed instrument, the Teachers’ Sources of Marital Conflict and Management Strategies Scale (TSMCMSS), and analyzed using independent samples t-test, and ANOVA to test the three hypotheses in the study. Findings revealed no significant demographic differences in any of the sources of marital conflict examined. It was concluded that communication breakdown, behavioural issues, and limited spousal time are universal stressors affecting teachers’ marital relationships. The study highlights the need for counselling interventions focusing on communication skills, stress management, behavioural adjustment, and work–family balance. It recommends that counsellors collaborate with school administrators to provide structured marital support programmes to enhance teachers’ marital satisfaction, promote family wellbeing, and improve professional productivity.

Speech Acts and Communicative Strategies in Military Literary Discourse: A Comparative Pragmatic Analysis of English and Uzbek
type: item
description: This article examines speech acts and communicative strategies in English and Uzbek military literary discourse from a comparative pragmatic perspective. Military literary discourse represents a complex form of communication in which institutional hierarchy, operational necessity, personal emotion, moral responsibility and national identity interact. The study is based on the theoretical principles of speech act theory, politeness theory, discourse analysis and cross-cultural pragmatics. Selected dialogue situations from English and Uzbek war prose are analyzed according to their illocutionary force, linguistic realization, contextual function and anticipated perlocutionary effect. The findings indicate that directives occupy a central position in both English and Uzbek military literary discourse because commands, warnings, instructions and prohibitions organize military action and reflect power relations. However, assertives, commissives, expressives and declaratives also contribute to the representation of military experience. English military dialogue frequently relies on concise imperatives, modal constructions, institutional vocabulary and strategically controlled emotional expression. Uzbek military dialogue demonstrates comparable functional directness but more visibly employs verbal suffixes, respectful imperative forms, forms of address, collective pronouns and culturally marked expressions of solidarity. The analysis identifies authority, mitigation, persuasion, solidarity, emotional restraint, strategic ambiguity and identity construction as major communicative strategies. The article concludes that the two traditions share common institutional functions while differing in the linguistic and cultural resources used to realize them.

Widowhood Rites and Rituals in Some Communities of the North West Region of Cameroon: Psychological, Financial, and Physical Health Impacts on Widows and Consequences for Children’s Education
type: item
description: The main purpose of this study was to examine the psychological, financial, and physical health impacts of widowhood rites and rituals on widows in some selected communities of the North West Region of Cameroon and consequences for their children’s education. The mixed research method was adopted for this study and data was collected with the use of three instruments; questionnaire, interview guide and observation guide. The sample comprised of 160 widows who have undergone widowhood rites and rituals, and 10 elderly women responsible for carrying out and supervising widowhood rites and rituals, who were interviewed. The researcher personally observed some widowhood rites and rituals as they were being performed. The purposive and the snowball sampling techniques were used. Quantitative data was analyzed with the use of Means and Standard Deviations, while qualitative data was analyzed using the Thematic Approach. The findings revealed that many of the widowhood rites and rituals practiced in the area under study impose significant psychological distress, financial hardship, and physical health challenges on widows, which limit their ability to adequately support the education of their children, thereby increasing vulnerability to poor educational outcome. The study then concludes with recommendations that will go a long way to reform practices that undermine dignity, health, economic well-being, and educational welfare of widows’ children.

Teachers’ Motivational Strategies and Students’ Classroom Engagement in Public Secondary Schools in Rivers State
type: item
description: The study investigated teachers’ motivational strategies and students’ classroom engagement in public secondary schools in Rivers State. The study adopted a correlational research design. Four research questions and four ull hypotheses guided the study. The population of the study consisted of all the 7,179 senior secondary school teachers in public secondary schools in Rivers State. The sample for the study comprised 350 teachers. The Taro Yamane formula was used to get the sample size. A stratified random sampling technique was used for the study. The instrument for the study was a researcher-developed instrument titled Teachers’ Motivational Strategies and Students’ Classroom Engagement Scale (TMSSCES). The instrument comprised two sections: A and B. The first section was used to generate teachers’ responses on their use of motivational strategies, which consisted of 20 item statements. The second section was used to evaluate students’ enjoyment which consisted of 15 item statements. The instrument was validated by experts in Measurement and Evaluation. The test-retest technique was used to determine the reliability of the instrument. A reliability coefficient r = 0.91 was established for teachers’ motivational strategies, while a reliability coefficient r = 0.82 was established for the students’ engagement scale. Pearson Product-Moment Correlation was used to answer the research questions and test the null hypotheses. The findings of the study revealed that positive reinforcement, interactive teaching methods, teacher–student relationship strategies and use of instructional materials were significantly and positively related to students’ classroom engagement in public secondary schools in Rivers State. Consequently, the researcher recommended, among other things, that teachers should adopt consistent and meaningful positive reinforcement strategies, such as praise, constructive feedback, and recognition of effort to encourage desirable learning behaviours, while…

Institutional Barriers to Implementing Triple Helix Initiatives in Higher Education: A Case Study of State and Private Universities in Cameroon
type: item
description: Despite recent policy reforms including the Law on the Orientation of Higher Education in June 2023, the integration of the Triple Helix innovation model (university-industry-government) is dangerously delayed in Cameroon. This study looked at the deep institutional impediments to commercializing university research and to formalizing relationships with industry. The study used an explanatory sequential mixed-methods design, and data from 342 students, 128 academic faculty, and 18 university administrators in selected state and private universities were collected. The results show a fractured “knowledge triad” that operates as a disjointed double helix. Napoleonic bureaucracy and centralized treasury routing administratively hobble state institutions, creating a 6-to-9-month “MoU Chokepoint” that alienates dynamic private-sector partners. On the infrastructure front, 78% of students have entrepreneurial intent, but innovation is stifled by underfunded “paper incubators” without physical prototyping labs and industry-experienced mentors, resulting in a “capital flight” of student talent to unregulated private tech clusters. The study highlights a cultural “IP Brain Drain” fueled by the regional CAMES regulatory system, which logically incentivizes professors to give up valuable local IP for promotion in foreign theoretical journals and actively discourages commercialization. The study concluded that for the Triple Helix to be a viable economic engine in Cameroon, the state should aggressively decentralize university governance, earmark venture funding to remove nominal incubators, and implement a dual-track tenure system rewarding local patenting on par with international publishing.

Enhancing Reading Comprehension of Key Stage 2 Learners through Interactive Multimedia Tools
type: item
description: This study aimed to determine the impact of interactive multimedia tools on the reading comprehension of Key Stage 2 learners at Campatud Elementary School, Loon South District, Bohol, during the School Year 2025–2026. Using a descriptive-correlational research design, the study assessed the demographic profiles of four female teachers and their pupils, the extent of tool utilization (televisions, laptops, and smartphones), and the resulting effects on learner engagement and motivation. Statistical analysis using the Pearson Product-Moment Correlation Coefficient revealed a significant relationship between the use of multimedia tools and reading comprehension levels, with a computed r-value of 0.85 and a p-value of 0.02, leading to the rejection of the null hypothesis. Key challenges identified by teachers included gaps in digital literacy and unreliable internet connectivity. The findings indicate that interactive multimedia tools significantly enhance cognitive scaffolding and pupil engagement. Based on these results, a set of multimedia-assisted reading exercises was developed to further improve literacy outcomes.The use of visual and auditory aids facilitated a deeper understanding of abstract concepts, while the interactive nature of the tools reduced boredom and increased motivation. Based on the findings, it is concluded that interactive multimedia is a potent instructional medium for improving reading comprehension. While technology does not replace the teacher, it acts as a critical supportive tool that makes learning more flexible, engaging, and accessible, particularly for students who struggle with traditional printed texts. It is recommended that the school administration and faculty prioritize the integration of interactive digital resources in early literacy programs. Continuous professional development should be provided to teachers to enhance their digital pedagogical skills. Furthermore, the school should invest in sustaining these technological ai…

Managing Innovative Education to Strengthen Global Partnership for Attainment of Sustainable Development Goals in Nigeria
type: item
description: This paper exposes the approaches of strengthening global partnership through innovative education for attainment of Sustainable Development Goals. The modern society demands that every country needs to advance to meet up with the trends of the times. It is the quest of trying to catch up with the emerging global forces of demand and supply that calls for innovations, modern methods and materials in education. However, there has been a search for alternatives to strengthen development. Education has to reach a satisfactory standard to achieve a worldwide quality framework. This is what the agenda of globalization preaches, but analytically, the North (developed countries), with all the hegemonic power, seems not to promote equal opportunities. Contemporarily, much emphasis has been laid on strengthening global partnership through education improvement as a way of maintaining equity, but the wide disparity of North and South (developed and developing countries) seems to create an existing gap, whereas it is agreed that countries should support the collaborative partnership to achieve the 17 stated Sustainable Development Goals. Judging from the movement so far, one begins to ponder on the relevance of this whole exercise on Nigeria as we seem to continuously play the role of followership. This is to say that more should be done in innovating education to avoid staying weak in global partnership. The paper therefore suggests that countries of the South should examine their financial strength before adopting some globalization policies, else they remain perpetual followers in the system despite the innovation adopted.

Advocating Adaptive Leadership Expertise of School Heads in Times of Crises
type: item
description: This study examined the adaptive leadership expertise of school heads during times of crises in San Miguel District, Bohol Division. The respondents included five public elementary and secondary school heads and seventy-five teachers, totaling eighty participants. Findings revealed that natural disasters were the most frequently encountered crises, typically experienced once or twice by both groups. Results indicated that school heads consistently demonstrated a very high level of adaptive leadership expertise across three dimensions—diagnostic capacity, mobilization capacity, and experiential learning capacity—with mobilization and experiential learning capacities slightly higher than diagnostic capacity. Challenges in exercising adaptive leadership were experienced to a moderate extent by school heads, while teachers reported moderate to great challenges, particularly in personal aspects. Correlation analysis showed no significant relationship between adaptive leadership expertise and most types of crises among school heads, except for social and political crises, which had a significant positive relationship. For teachers, operational and social-political crises showed weak negative relationships with adaptive leadership expertise. No significant relationships were found between adaptive leadership expertise and challenges among school heads. Overall, the study concludes that school heads consistently exhibit high adaptive leadership expertise, independent of crisis frequency or type. However, organizational and systemic factors continue to influence leadership practice, underscoring the importance of institutional support, adequate resources, and continuous professional development to strengthen adaptive leadership in schools.

Structural-Semantic and Cognitive Interpretation of theTerminological System
type: item
description: This article examines the terminological system from structural-semantic and cognitive perspectives. The study focuses on the organization of terms within specialized fields, their semantic relations and their role in representing professional knowledge. Terminology is not simply a collection of isolated lexical units; it is a systematic structure that reflects concepts, categories and domain-specific cognitive models (Cabré, 1999; ISO, 2022). The article applies qualitative structural, semantic and cognitive analysis. The findings show that terminological systems are formed through hierarchical, associative, synonymic, antonymic and derivational relations. From a cognitive point of view, terms function as verbal representations of concepts, frames and specialized knowledge structures (Temmerman, 2000; Faber, 2011). The study concludes that a complete analysis of terminology should combine structural-semantic interpretation with cognitive analysis, because terms represent both linguistic form and conceptual knowledge.

Analysis of Foreign Scientific Research on Training Specialized Translators Based on Information Resources
type: item
description: This article analyzes foreign scientific research devoted to the training of specialized translators through the use of information resources. In contemporary translation education, the translator is no longer viewed only as a bilingual mediator, but as a professional who must work with terminology databases, corpora, electronic dictionaries, translation memories, machine translation systems, digital archives and subject-specific information platforms. The purpose of the article is to examine how international research conceptualizes the role of information resources in developing specialized translation competence. The study is based on a qualitative literature review of major foreign models and approaches, including the EMT competence framework, the PACTE translation competence model, technology-oriented translation pedagogy, corpus-based translator training and neural machine translation research. The results show that foreign studies emphasize the integration of linguistic, technological, strategic, intercultural and subject-field competences. At the same time, the analysis reveals that many international models describe translator competence broadly, while fewer studies offer a step-by-step didactic mechanism for training specialized translators through information resources. The article concludes that information-resource-based translator training should combine subject knowledge, terminology management, corpus literacy, digital competence and reflective translation practice.

The Role of Context in Pragmatic Meaning Construction in Digital Communication
type: item
description: Digital communication has fundamentally transformed the ways individuals create, interpret, and negotiate meaning. Unlike traditional face-to-face interaction, online communication frequently occurs in environments where physical context, non-verbal cues, and immediate feedback are limited or entirely absent. Consequently, participants rely on a wide range of contextual resources—including linguistic, technological, social, and multimodal elements—to construct pragmatic meaning. This study examines the role of context in pragmatic meaning construction within digital communication from the perspectives of pragmatics, cognitive linguistics, and computer-mediated discourse analysis. Drawing upon Grice's Cooperative Principle, Speech Act Theory, Relevance Theory, and contemporary approaches to digital discourse, the research investigates how contextual information influences the interpretation of online messages across social media platforms, instant messaging applications, and online discussion forums. A qualitative discourse analysis of authentic digital interactions demonstrates that pragmatic meaning is shaped not only by lexical and grammatical structures but also by emojis, hashtags, hyperlinks, memes, shared cultural knowledge, platform conventions, and communicative intentions. The findings indicate that context in digital environments is dynamic, multimodal, and collaboratively constructed by participants throughout interaction. Furthermore, the study highlights that successful interpretation depends upon users' ability to integrate linguistic information with technological affordances and socio-cultural knowledge. These findings contribute to contemporary pragmalinguistic research by expanding traditional theories of context to accommodate the characteristics of digital communication and emphasizing the need for interdisciplinary approaches to language use in technologically mediated environments.

LINGUISTIC FEATURES OF LITERARY TRANSLATION FROM UZBEK INTO ARABIC
type: item
description: This article discusses the linguistic features of literary translation from Uzbek into Arabic. Literary translation is one of the most complex types of translation because it requires not only the transfer of lexical meaning but also the preservation of style, imagery, national-cultural color, emotional tone, and aesthetic function. Uzbek and Arabic belong to different language families and have different grammatical, phonetic, syntactic, and stylistic systems. Therefore, the translation of Uzbek literary texts into Arabic requires special attention to lexical equivalence, phraseological units, metaphorical expressions, cultural realia, word order, stylistic devices, and pragmatic meanings. The article analyzes the main linguistic challenges that arise in Uzbek-Arabic literary translation and explains them through the views of translation scholars such as E. Nida, P. Newmark, M. Baker, J. Catford, S. Bassnett, and L. Venuti. The study concludes that successful literary translation from Uzbek into Arabic depends on the translator’s linguistic competence, cultural knowledge, stylistic sensitivity, and ability to recreate the artistic value of the original text.

Pedagogical Conditions for Improving Economic Education of Preschool Children Through STEAM-Based Learning Technologies
type: item
description: The rapid development of technology, globalization, and digital transformation has significantly changed the requirements imposed on future generations. Economic literacy is increasingly recognized as an essential life competence that should begin to develop in early childhood. Preschool age represents a critical period during which children acquire foundational knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors that influence their future social and economic participation. Traditional approaches to economic education in preschool settings often focus on isolated concepts such as money recognition, saving, and consumption, while neglecting the development of critical thinking, creativity, problem-solving, and interdisciplinary competencies necessary for modern economic life. STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics) education offers innovative opportunities for integrating economic concepts into meaningful learning experiences. Through project-based activities, experimentation, collaborative learning, and creative problem-solving, STEAM technologies can contribute to the formation of economic awareness and responsible decision-making among preschool children. However, effective implementation requires specific pedagogical conditions that ensure developmental appropriateness, active engagement, and integration of economic content within preschool curricula. This study examines the pedagogical conditions necessary for improving economic education among preschool children through STEAM-based learning technologies. The research employs a qualitative and theoretical approach based on literature analysis, comparative pedagogical review, and synthesis of contemporary studies on early childhood education, economic literacy, and STEAM learning. The findings identify several critical pedagogical conditions, including child-centered learning environments, integration of economic concepts into daily activities, teacher professional competence, family involvement, interdi…

Mechanisms for Developing Sociometric Relationships Between Teachers and Students
type: item
description: Teacher–student sociometric relationships represent an important dimension of the educational process, influencing classroom climate, academic achievement, social adaptation, emotional well-being, and students’ sense of belonging. Contemporary educational research increasingly recognizes that positive teacher–student relationships contribute significantly to learning effectiveness and psychosocial development. The present study aims to examine the historical evolution, theoretical foundations, methodological approaches, and contemporary educational implications of sociometric relationships between teachers and students. A qualitative research design based on systematic literature review and comparative analysis was employed. Scientific sources from sociometry, educational psychology, social-emotional learning, attachment theory, and restorative practices were analyzed. The findings reveal that teacher–student sociometric relationships have evolved from classical sociometric concepts of interpersonal choice and rejection toward multidimensional frameworks encompassing trust, emotional support, fairness, inclusion, and psychological safety. The study highlights the importance of integrating sociometric, humanistic, socio-constructivist, social-emotional learning, and restorative approaches in modern educational environments. The results suggest that systematic development of sociometric relationships contributes to improved educational outcomes, enhanced classroom climate, and greater student well-being.

Beyond Certification: Rethinking Colleges of Education in Nigeria in the Era of Dual-Mode Teacher EducationA Critical Review and Scholarly Reflection on the Future of Teacher Preparation in Nigeria
type: item
description: The transformation of teacher education has become a global priority in response to technological advancement, globalization, labour market shifts, and the changing nature of knowledge production. In Nigeria, the emergence of the dual-mode policy in Colleges of Education represents one of the most significant reforms in teacher education since the establishment of the Nigeria Certificate in Education (NCE). The policy permits Colleges of Education to concurrently award both NCE and Bachelor of Education (B.Ed.) degrees, thereby redefining their institutional identity and academic relevance. This paper critically examines the concept of “Beyond Certification” as a framework for rethinking Colleges of Education in Nigeria within the context of dual-mode teacher education. The paper argues that the traditional certification-oriented model has become inadequate for addressing contemporary educational demands characterized by digital transformation, competency-based learning, entrepreneurship, and global competitiveness. Using a qualitative and descriptive research design, the study relies on secondary data from government reports, journal articles, policy documents, and comparative international educational practices. Findings reveal that while the dual-mode policy offers opportunities for institutional revitalization, enhanced teacher qualification, increased enrolment, and global competitiveness, major challenges remain in the areas of funding, digital infrastructure, curriculum modernization, staff development, and quality assurance. The study concludes that Colleges of Education in Nigeria must evolve beyond centres of credential acquisition into innovative institutions capable of producing technologically competent, research-oriented, entrepreneurial, and globally relevant educators.
