{"title":"A CRITICAL REVIEW OF THE FREE SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL POLICY IN GHANA WITHIN THE FRAMEWORK OF DEVELOPMENT OF CURRICULUM","authors":"Andrews Acquah, F. Attila, Clarke Ebow Yalley","doi":"10.61841/fkfr6k15","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.61841/fkfr6k15","url":null,"abstract":"Central governments across nations play a leading role in initiating and reforming educational policies to address the evolving needs of their workforces. Education is widely recognised as a cornerstone for societal and global development, making it a national priority. National curriculums are heavily influenced by social demands, technological advancements, national aspirations, and educational trends observed in neighbouring countries. Various assessment techniques have been established to evaluate the effectiveness of educational policies in fulfilling curriculum goals. This study employs Dunn's programme assessment framework to analyse the core elements of Ghana's Free Senior High School policy. The evaluation focuses on key dimensions including effectiveness, efficiency, adequacy (sufficiency), equity (fairness), responsiveness, and appropriateness. The analysis reveals that the policy falls short across all significant dimensions of Dunn's framework. Schools in Ghana face significant challenges such as low educational standards, disparities between urban and rural schools, high student-teacher ratios, overcrowding, resource limitations, and an overall lack of responsiveness to the issues the policy aims to tackle. Policymakers should prioritize targeted support for underserved communities, explore alternative funding models, and incentivize collaboration between public and private educational institutions. To help families navigate the challenges arising from the policy's implementation, the study presents implications and recommendations. Notably, for families to fully benefit from the programme, parental involvement is crucial, and political considerations must not overshadow their children's education.","PeriodicalId":511356,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Advance Research in Social Science and Humanities (ISSN 2208-2387)","volume":" 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141828320","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}

This has led to legal uncertainty regarding wage regulations. \u0000The research method employed in this study is the normative legal research method, which involves examining literature or secondary data.  The approach used included the statute approach, which analyzes all legislation and regulations related to the legal issues being addressed, and the conceptual approach, which stems from perspectives and doctrines within legal studies. The data used consisted of secondary data obtained through literature reviews and primary data obtained through interviews with respondents and relevant institutions. \u0000The results of this research are expected to provide answers to the dualism in legislation regarding wages, particularly for legal certainty for employers, workers, and investors. The determination of minimum wage is indeed crucial in the economic field, as it relates not only to the purchasing power of the society for wage increases but also to legal certainty needed by employers and investors, including the government's consistency in enacting legislation.","PeriodicalId":511356,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Advance Research in Social Science and Humanities (ISSN 2208-2387)","volume":"89 5","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140723349","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}

Zatti, Nicoletta Riva","doi":"10.61841/76kr1q12","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.61841/76kr1q12","url":null,"abstract":"When social and clinical psychology “work together,” cultural-based disturbs, like eating disorder behaviour, can be seen in a new light. Self-image is a perception product based on icon memory, imagination, sensory stimulus, social context expectations, self-beliefs about social context adequacy, etc. Still, it is also based on self-representation, like dress, fashion, maquillage, etc. \u0000A different discourse can be done for what psychology intends for body schema. Body gesture, movement, and action result from very complex different neural systems cooperation, combining sensory and motor brain centres. Training to build neuro-motor schemas requires a very long time and effort, as in each human art like dance, sports, playing drama, art crafts competencies, etc.\u0000 What if one’s body image and body schema are unbalanced? If the social body image pressure will bring one’s total mimesis with it or to an original, personal interpretation is here attributed to the “exboding” capacity, coming from a “sufficient” balance between body schema and body image.\u0000Some anorexia nervosa patients are frequently engaged in intense physical activities. In our interpretation, their conscious control of the body comes from the social colonisation of embodied images that produce a disequilibrium between body image and body schema. Thus, a sort of “body-image” liberation could be possible if a deep awareness of our body schema is reached.\u0000 The central hypothesis of this work is that the embodiment processes, primarily dependent on cultural pressure, have to be seen in unstable equilibrium with exbodiment experiences, which can be considered as the expression of body schema originated by personal sensory-motor history (see References 1; 2; 3). To evaluate the possible separation between the two, a new picture questionnaire has been elaborated.\u0000 Dysmorphic \"confusion\" is widely spreading in contemporary Western societies, particularly among adolescents (4; 5). The perception of how we are seen by others (body image) is one of the core issues in social trends, education, and psychopathology (6). \u0000 On the other hand, what one implicitly knows of his/her somatic body (body schema) represents the psychological antecedent basis implied in social interaction (2). \u0000This article attempts to give a quantitative dimension to the two sides of the body, the structural, implicit one (body-schema) and the public, partly self-controlled one (body-image).","PeriodicalId":511356,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Advance Research in Social Science and Humanities (ISSN 2208-2387)","volume":"26 20","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139600151","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}

Accordingly, it revealed eight (8) principles that were utilized in the establishment of interregional states’ boundaries in Ethiopia, including the “four principles” enshrined in the 1995 Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia (FDRE) Constitution and the principles of agreement among and/or between adjacent nationalities, ethnoterritoriality, ethnoculturality, and ethnolinguisticity.
