Abstract The research is on bridging the gap in school attendance between riverine and non-riverine areas: the home-grown school feeding. This survey-based study used an ex-pose-facto research approach to collect data from primary/elementary school teachers in the Ethiope-West and Warri-South-West senatorial zones of Delta State. The respondents were 489 primary 1–3 teachers spread across two LGAs. A questionnaire titled “School Attendance in Riverine and Non-Riverine (SARNA) was the instrument used to collect data.

Abstract:

This paper explores the engagement of parents with out-of-school children through community-based participatory action research in a rural community in Nepal. This study addresses the connection gap between local communities and community schools, which has resulted in consequences such as inconsistent attendance among students and low educational expectations among parents. By investigating the processes of formulating an action plan by a parent-led action group and analysing its execution, the research aimed to understand how participatory action research can foster a stronger bond between c

Abstract:

The purpose of this article is to evaluate a project undertaken in Saudi Arabia to prepare its students for university study. It focuses on the Female Section of an Intensive English Programme (IEP) in the context of a Common First Year. It assesses the IEPâ€™s academic value and the extent to which cultural diversity affects its implementation. Findings show that the IEP gives students enhanced self-confidence and educational skills and provides a scenario within which positive relationships are established between students and international instructors, despite cultural differences between t

Abstract Background Chronic pain is common and affects 20% of children and youth. Those with chronic pain often have a difficult time regularly attending school, with up to 50% of children and youth with chronic pain missing some school. Specific accommodations that benefit youth are unknown. Nearly half of parents of youth with chronic pain report their child’s grades dropped since pain onset. Both parents and youth report “moderate levels of interference” with learning. Most common accommodations include being sent to the nurse, being sent home and receiving extensions on assignments.

Abstract:

Fundamental school reform continues to elude educators. Lessons from past reform efforts point to the influence of a school's culture in resisting reform efforts, leading reformers to adopt a cultural perspective of school change. The need for school reform is particularly alarming in economically poor minority communities where students are failing and dropping out of school in high numbers. One of the factors cited as contributing to this failure is the disconnection/differences between the student's home culture and school culture. These differences create a high degree of incongruity for t

A new course available to high schools in British Columbia, Canada, incorporates several novel aspects, a key feature being the reliance on “intuitive,” simulation-based inference. We describe the

Abstract:

This paper analyzes the evolution of gender differences in school attendance and attainment in Latin America and the Caribbean, for both adults who left the educational system and children in school. For individuals 21 years old and above the paper uses a cohort analysis of school attainment. The results indicate that the schooling gap has closed for the cohort born at the end of the 1960s. Since then, the gap has reversed such that within the cohort born in 1980, females have, on average, ¿ of a schooling year more than males. During the four decades of birth cohorts of our analysis (1940-198

Abstract:

South Asia is particularly vulnerable to natural disasters, with millions of displacements recorded every year. Yet issues of climate-induced displacement and migration remain underrepresented in policy discourse, advocacy, and research. As a result, students in disaster-prone areas are often kept out of school during and after disasters. This policy brief highlights the common governance gaps in protecting the right to education for displaced persons in South and Southeast Asia, and provides policy recommendations for addressing them.

Abstract:

The global services industry shows steady growth and a very dynamic pathcharacterized by unprecedented fast movements towards higher value services, constant changes in business as well as in service delivery models, and an increasing number of emerging outsourcing locations. In this context, the skills demand not only increases in amount and quality, but also constantly changes. This has led many countries to develop finishing school programs as an effective tool to face this challenge and take advantage of this growing industry that seems to have room for many players, aiming at bridging the

Abstract:

The global emphasis on addressing gender disparities in education has highlighted the importance of equitable academic achievement for policymakers, scholars, and the public. The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) have incorporated gender equity, emphasising the ongoing challenge of ensuring equal access to quality education worldwide. In Cambodia, traditionally a male-dominated society, a notable shift has been observed: female students are now surpassing their male counterparts in school enrolment and academic performance. This reversal has sparked significant public interest, prompting th

Abstract:

The Interactions curriculum and professional development program is designed to support high school teachers in their transition to the physical science Next Generation Science Standards. Through curriculum materials, an online portal for delivering the digital materials, interactive models of molecular phenomena, and educative teacher guide, teachers are able to support students in bridging the gap between macroscopic and sub-microscopic ideas in physical science by focusing on a modeling and explanation-oriented exploration of attractions and energy changes at the atomic level.

Abstract:

Industrial development is central to Cambodia’s economic development as it plans to upgrade the country’s status to an upper-middle-income country by 2030 and to a high-income country by 2050. Equipping the workforce with the skills and competencies that match industrial needs requires a great deal of continuous efforts and resources. In this regard, this paper aims to look into the linkage between skills and transformation based on employers’ perspectives. It explores insights into how companies perceive and use the skills and qualifications of their employees to overcome changes in technolog

Abstract:

This paper explores the opportunities and affordances presented when historically and systemically excluded (HSE) youth gain access to high-powered technology and tools in their school environment through an innovative program. Many research studies have shown the challenges HSE youth face in accessing high-value occupations, particularly in the fields of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM). Despite the increasing demand for STEM jobs, pathways from schools to careers in these fields often lack effectiveness, especially among HSE students. The Reinvent the Classroom initia
