Specifically, it identified the grammatical errors of students in their narrative essays along with subject-verb agreement and verb tenses. It determined the second language difficulties leading to their grammatical errors and their implications for language teaching and learning. Based on the 45 essays analyzed by the 15 students, the results showed that the grammatical errors identified were along the verb tense, which ranked highest (66%), and subject-verb agreement (42%), indicating a high level of students’ writing difficulty. Several linguistic difficulties that contributed to these errors were vocabulary gaps, limited knowledge of grammatical rules, syntactic differences between the students’ local language (L1) and English language (L2), the challenging learning environment, lack of resources, distractions, and insufficient family support. The students’ L2 difficulties may have implications for teaching and learning, particularly in terms of communicative effectiveness, reading comprehension, shift in teaching approach, and balancing formal and communicative activities.  Article visualizations:","PeriodicalId":93285,"journal":{"name":"European journal of education studies","volume":"42 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141389122","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}

Two research questions and two null hypotheses were formulated. The study adopted a descriptive survey research design. The target population comprised 462 respondents which made up of all the 231 principals and 231 vice-principals in the public secondary schools in Enugu State. The instrument for data collection was a researcher-developed questionnaire, structured on a 4-point rating scale that ranged from very high extent to very low extent. It was validated by two experts, one in Educational Administration and Planning and the other in Measurement and Evaluation, Godfrey Okoye University, Enugu. The test-retest method of reliability of the instrument was used and the data obtained were analyzed using Pearson Product Moment Correlation and yielded a correlation coefficient of 0.85. Mean and standard deviation were used in answering the research questions. The t-test was used in testing the hypotheses at a 0.05 level of significance. The findings showed that principals utilized strategic planning competencies to a low extent going by the mean ratings of principals and vice-principals. There were also no significant differences between the mean ratings of principals and vice principals on their utilization of the strategic planning competencies. Poor utilization of strategic planning competencies by principals implies that it is either that principals were not adequately trained and prepared to strategically manage schools for effective results or that the training they received was no longer adequate to meet the challenges of emerging issues in secondary school management. It was thus, recommended among other things that Continuous training opportunities should be given to all principals through seminars and workshops to expose them to modern trends and skills in strategic planning for managing emerging issues in their schools through the optimum use of targets, standards, and scarce resources.  Article visualizations:","PeriodicalId":93285,"journal":{"name":"European journal of education studies","volume":" 48","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140687722","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 study was based in Kenya; however, Kisumu County was chosen for its below-average KCSE mean score of 4.08 (D+) in 2017 compared to the average mean of 6 (C); low teacher-student ratio at 1:59 compared to the required 1:45 and absolute poverty index of 41% compared to the national poverty index of 35.6. The purpose of this study was to analyze community financing of public secondary schools and its effect on the quality of education in Kisumu County, Kenya. The specific objective of the study was to examine community financing of secondary school lunch programs and their effect on the provision of quality education in Kisumu County. A descriptive and correlation research design was used in the study. The target population for this study comprised 214 secondary schools in Kisumu County, 214 school principals, 214 BOM chairpersons, the CDE, 48 CBOs and 51,243 students. Questionnaires, document analysis and interview schedules for school principals, BOM chairpersons, the CDE, CBOs and students were used in this study. A stratified simple random sampling procedure was used to sample the 64 public secondary schools in Kisumu County from which 64 school principals, 64 BOM chairpersons, 16 CBOs and 387 purposively selected students were used for the study. The content and face validity of the instruments were determined by employing experts in the Department of Education Management and Foundations. The reliability of the instruments was calculated by using the test re-test and was calculated at Pearson r coefficient of 0.879. Qualitative data was transcribed and analyzed in emergent themes and sub-themes. The results showed that there was a positive correlation of 0.952 between Community financing, lunch programs and academic performance. The study concluded that community financing of adequate lunch programs significantly influences the academic performance of learners to a great extent. The study recommended that community financing of lunch programmes should be increased in order to achieve fully the objectives of the secondary education policy. The findings may be significant to policymakers, education planners and implementers on the requirement for the registration of institutions of higher learning.  Article visualizations:","PeriodicalId":93285,"journal":{"name":"European journal of education studies","volume":" 28","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140687145","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 improve teaching experiences, the current study focuses on a special methodology course, Teaching English to Young Learners, by implementing technology, reflective feedback, and collaborative learning, and it presents a model that is grounded within the social constructivist theory. Sixty-two learners participated in the study. Two groups were randomly assigned to the Technology Enhanced Group and Control Group to investigate the effectiveness of the technology-enhanced, reflective, and collaborative model; and to explore the learners’ perceptions. The qualitative data was analyzed using feedback, reflections, and learner interviews. The technology-enhanced, reflective, and collaborative model of teaching how to teach to young learners proved to be effective. Participants noticed the pedagogical aspects of the teaching model presented to them and their perceptions were positive.

The society we belong to has come to value other aspects of an individual's development. The phenomenon of learning is at the center of the concerns of all teachers, especially because every teacher wants his students not only to say that they are learning but to be dedicated and involved wholeheartedly in this process. This can be a reality, especially when we talk about a strong motivation to learn. Motivation has a very important role in the learning process, we can even say that it is the key to success in education. Our trust in group members exerted a profound influence on our motivation: successful group functioning requires that we be motivated to interact and engage with those around us. Feedback is essential to improving performance and is increasingly well understood, but the fact that it is so absent in classrooms should remain an important research topic. This study aimed to develop an educational intervention program based on scaffolding to stimulate academic motivation among third-grade students.
