The importance of training and development in any sector cannot be underscored more.

Chapter 2: Literature Review

Introduction
Poor student development has been established to stem from the inability of teachers to effectively manage classroom behaviour, also stemming from ineffective instructional strategies. As teachers show a diminished capacity to support and respond to students’ needs, student rates of misbehaviour and poor academic performance will continue. The unproductive, unengaged environment of classrooms run by teachers without adequate classroom management skills results in a need to examine the efficacy of classroom management as a practice in addressing these problems. The following literature review examines the existing literature related to classroom management, providing a definition of classroom management, determining its effectiveness, and ...

Introduction

The achievement gap in formal schooling between African American children and other groups is stark. This has proven consistent over time (Coleman, et al, 1966), across jurisdictions (Clotfelter, Ladd & Vigdor, 2009; Bailey & Dziko, 2008), and throughout the K-12 system (The National Center for Education Statistics, 2014). Improving these issues is an obvious direction forward. Yet, the obstacles are numerous and multifaceted (Sanacore, 2004). Relative to the public domain, the school system is often targeted for a lack of understanding in relation to educating young African Americans of low socio-economic status. The curriculum is long been criticized for being de-contextualized to ...

Discussion

The strength of any public services is shown by the quality of its human resource. Developments in the economy have led to shifts in knowledge and expectation. More than ever before, the citizens are increasingly aware of the obligation that the public sector has to the citizenry. There is increased expectation for quality service delivery. As a result of this, there is more demand for better services from a public sector that is responsive to the prevailing conditions (Pepple, 2009, pg.1). Stalled development in Nigeria has been blamed on the failure to achieve development targets and goals. Scholars argue that is ...

The inability of teachers to manage classroom behaviors contributes to poor student development (Stevens & Lingo, 2013; Funnell, 2009). In response to this limitation the ineffective manner of any adopted strategies utilized will affect the socialization of students and stunt any true learning or participation on the part of the student.(Shook, 2012). A lack of effort set forth by teachers to maintain effective classroom management reflects a lack of support and responsiveness on the part of the students.

A teacher's accomplishments are made up of student learning and teacher efficiency, and can be traced to the ability of the teacher, ...

Chapter One

Despite the fact that in 1996, Supreme Court Justice Scalia called single-sex education in public schools “functionally dead,” Single-sex education has become an increasingly popular model in schools since the No Child Left Behind Act of 2001 was passed. This federal legislation promoted innovative programs for states to implement that included single-sex classrooms and schools (U.S. Department of Education, 2006).
Within any educational setting there were many factors that impacted student achievement that related to boys’ and girls’ physical, social, emotional, and intellectual needs. A single-sex environment provided boys and girls with a setting that promoted specific gender related ...

Black Boys and underachievement: Myth or Reality?

Introduction
Since the decade of the 1960s, the families of black Caribbean boys have been particularly concerned about the academic performance of their children. The reason for this is due to an apparent gap between these Afro-Caribbean children and other students, especially white ones (National Union of Teachers | NUT | The Teachers' Union, 2007). Today, their scholastic success at the attainment at General Certificate of Secondary Education (GCSE) remains well below the national average. In 2006, 44.9 percent of these children gained five good GCSEs or their equal compared to 57.3 percent of white students (DfES, 2007). The figures ...
