It is in this context that this study was centred among others issues on identifying policy guidelines that are used to initiate rural female students’ participation in sciences. In addition, this paper aims to show how these guidelines have been used to instigate rural female students’ participation in sciences. These laid the ground for the paper to establish the impact of these policy guidelines on rural female students' participation in sciences at the Advanced Level. This idea was grounded in a methodological approach comprised of the transformative paradigm, and qualitative approach. The sample comprised of thirty participants who were purposively selected from rural female students doing sciences or other subjects at the Advanced Level. A content analysis was used in order to collect data generated through the document analysis, the focus group discussions, and in-depth personal interviews. One of the major highlights was that though there existed various gender-related policies guidelines (i.e., international treaties, national and school-based), participants had limited knowledge about them. In, addition, this study revealed that though these guidelines were in existence their application in promoting the participation of rural female students in sciences at Advanced Level was still not systematic. Thus, there existed a gap between policy intentions and the reality on the ground pertaining to the promotion of rural female students’ participation in sciences. This was more pronounced in the selected rural secondary schools where female students are under-represented in sciences at Advanced Level. Hence, the conclusion that though policy guidelines were recognized, they are yet to have an impact on rural female students’ participation in sciences at Advanced Level. This creates the need to encourage rural female students to take a centre stage in all activities earmarked at empowering them.","PeriodicalId":427861,"journal":{"name":"Futurity Education","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129201988","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The perspective of the topics analyzes the general strategies that have already been defined by scientific thought or are still in their developmental stage and proposes their own strategies for foreign language learning. The transition to an information society has caused a paradigm shift in the gravity and role of language knowledge in society. With the regard to educational knowledge, the paradigm change can be summarized as follows: there has been a transition from the educational model characteristic of modern pedagogy to the educational model of postmodern pedagogy, which involves mainly quality learning, through a comprehensive approach, integrating the learning content at the project level of a certain learning type to achieve the ideal of learning and universal development of a holistic person. This paradigm shift is associated with the affirmation of the triad of the learning educational model: lifelong learning, self-education, and full use of educational opportunities. The paper emphasizes the importance of foreign language learning strategies in the aspect of foreign language learning and teaching. One summarizes that the context of strategies and concepts of foreign language learning describe the taxonomy of innovative strategies, consider the role of the teacher in learning and development of future linguistic education.","PeriodicalId":427861,"journal":{"name":"Futurity Education","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130590541","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To make the play effective, the educational institution organizes adequate cognitive and play space. The aim of the article is to analyze the main trends, models and cases of cognition and play space organization as well as the outlining of the most efficient methods that can be applied within the educational institutions of the future. In the article one used a number of theoretical methods including the analysis of scientific and pedagogical literature, the synthesis of research results and the main trends of play space organization in modern educational institutions. The following empirical methods of research were also applied: focus group interviewing, pedagogical observation, and closed questionnaire survey. To process the data obtained during the pedagogical experiment the methods of statistical analysis were used. The research results showed three main models of cognitive and play space organization at the modern educational institutions: nature-based or outdoor, indoor, and virtual ones. Each of them has its own advantages and disadvantages. The choice depends on the learning objectives, institutional resources, teacher’s pedagogical readiness, technical possibilities of educational process, and external condition. The survey proves that it is necessary to combine the elements of different models to make the learning positive. In such conditions hybrid or mixed cognitive and play space is applied. Such space is focused on learning activity stimulation and child’s personality development in different conditions: outdoors, indoors, and virtually. The research demonstrates that well-designed hybrid cognitive and play space is essential for comprehensive and harmonious development of child’s personality within the educational process. The research showed that hybrid cognitive play space is an appropriate model for the education institutions of the future as it is characterized by dynamism and multifunctionality.","PeriodicalId":427861,"journal":{"name":"Futurity Education","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126409829","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
