Abstract:

This is the first attempt to estimate social returns, by which is meant pre-tax wage gains, to education in the Republic of Mauritius. Social returns are estimated for both sexes, by gender, by private and public sectors, and by rural and urban areas. This study uses cross sectional data from a sample of the 2000 Population Census. Although Psacharopoulos along with other researchers have estimated returns to education for many countries, the Republic of Mauritius had not so far been included due to lack of data prior to 2000. The Mincerian approach is used to estimate social returns for the R

Abstract:

Special education development progresses through predictable stages as a result of social, political and economic forces. These influential forces are conveyed through efforts of agencies and individuals from within and outside the nation. Despite these efforts, approximately 2% of the estimated 140 million disabled children in developing nations receive an education (UNESCO, 1988). A case study in Mauritius investigated the interrelationships among forces influencing special education development for the benchmark years 1976, 1982 and 1991. The study employed six methods for data collection:

Abstract:

I will argue that education and development in post-independent Mauritius should be discussed in its proper historical context: the transformation of the international system in the post-war era. The major change was the rise of the U.S.A. as the dominant power in the international system; and it is under the aegis of various American institutions, most particularly the U.N.O, that the concept of education, implying formal education, and the concept of development, implying economic growth in the mode of the Western industrialised countries, were brought together.

Abstract:

Diabetes mellitus is a condition which requires a high degree of patient cooperation in self-management to achieve optimal glycaemic control. The concept of patient education, to enhance the treatment and management of diabetes, is well recognised. Several diabetes education programmes have already been described, but increased knowledge of diabetes did not necessarily result in improved self-mangement or glycaemic control. Other factors, such as attitudes and motivations, may therefore be particuarly important. The aims of the present study were to investigate the influence of patients' attit

Abstract:

Physical education (PE) represents one of the most important physical settings in which to study motivational processes due to its uniqueness in including all young people with a wide range of physical abilities. Moreover, positive experiences in school PE are thought likely to enhance lifelong physical activity, giving PE an important role in influencing young people's involvement in physical activity both within and beyond the school curriculum. However, there is increasing concern over the physical activity levels of young people today, and understanding the changes in pupil's motivational
