Available pieces of evidence indicate that alignment of instructional components, such as curriculum standards, assessments, and teachers’ instruction, is important for primary-level education. This study employed the Surveys of Enacted Curriculum (SEC) methodology to investigate alignment of instructional components in Nigeria's primary education system, covering two states, ‘Oyo and Jigawa’. The two states were carefully chosen to account for both geographical differences and student achievement levels in Nigeria. Oyo represents a high performing area in the south in terms of student achievements while Jigawa represents a low performing area in the North. We adopted the SEC common language to analyse curriculum standards, national exams, and classroom instructional content for mathematics and English language across all six primary-level grades (1−6) for the two states. We found that key foundational mathematics and English language skills are covered by all three components, with notable omission of some critical topic areas on the end-of-cycle English language exams. All three components give high emphasis to the low cognitive demand processes of ‘memorize’ ‘perform’, and ‘demonstrate’, and give low emphasis to the more demanding cognitive processes of <em>‘analyse</em>’ and <em>‘apply</em> ’. Both the curriculum standards and classroom instruction depict a slow pace of content progression across grades, manifested through broad but shallow content coverage. We observed high alignment between the curriculum standards and classroom instruction, implying a potentially well-functioning education system. However, we found low student performance on the exams for both subjects, thereby contradicting this hypothesis. These findings suggest the Nigerian primary education system may be operating in a low-achieving equilibrium in which the system is aligned for low levels of cognitive demand and student mastery.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48004,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Educational Development","volume":"114 ","pages":"Article 103256"},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2025-03-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143619847","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Then the fundamental physiological concepts of structure-function relationships and matter gradients can be constructed by considering the physicochemical mechanisms involved. The diversity of devices found in circulatory, ventilatory and digestive systems is then examined through the prism of the mechanisms used to maintain gradients in nutrient concentration or gas partial pressure through exchange surfaces. Finally, the systems controlling nutrition functions are studied in fluctuating physiological contexts, such as during physical exercise or fasting. The presented pedagogical approach emphasizes the integration of functions on an organism-wide scale, and focuses teaching on basic mechanisms rather than on the description of structures, while ensuring the transferability of physiological concepts.

In this phenomenographic study, we used the Swedish medical internship as a proxy for the transition and explored internship programme directors' (PDs) perceptions of the medical internship from a developmental point of view. A phenomenographic approach was chosen to capture the variation in how PDs conceptualise the meaning of the internship, offering a more nuanced understanding of the transition and its implications for educational practice. Interviews with twelve PDs gave rise to three perceptions: the internship as an education, as working as a doctor, and as a space for learning through work. These views highlighted the transition not merely as a preparatory phase but as a dynamic process in which learning and clinical work were intertwined. Our findings suggest that instead of focusing solely on better preparing students for work, empowering junior doctors to learn through work-supported by structured guidance-can turn this challenging period into an opportunity for professional and personal growth.
