Adapting to advancement in Information governance and climatic change affect morality and interpersonal relationships among Yoruba people in modern day Nigeria. Using the theory of J. Descartes on moral-culture for analysis which sees man as a rational being or a rational substance, this work looks at remarkable changes noted in the society. The concept of morality is entrenched in Yoruba traditional society. The moral standard has fallen in recent times due to climatic change which make human to decide what is best as far as moral is concern, and to dictate the action to adopt. A clear example is the idea which is common in Nigeria, “weather for two”, and this indicate that whenever there is cold, you can take law into your hands and decide to have sexual intercourse with anybody who is available. Also, the idea of “self-morality”, this simply mean, an individual can decide the standard of moral not the societal Laws. Critical and analytical methods based on ethnography collected on the street of Lagos and proceedings of the Lagos High Court in the case of an old man who molested a minor shall be the basis of analysis for this presentation.

It is well-known that education plays an extreme important role in all people’s life. However, different educational ideas usually make different results on people. On education, on the same problem, noting that it is probably natural for people to have their own opinion. Some people with lots of knowledge think that people having got good education can make them have more choices or have larger stages to perform in the future. While most Chinese parents think that “good education can help make children live a better life in the future or find a better job with a high salary”. But some great people have the deeper insight on education. They often urge young people to study hard for their countries or national revitalization. Over 10 years ago, I read that American former-president, Obama (2009) ever made a speech to all the students in the US called “Why to Learn”. In his speech, he said to all the children in the US and told them that “you write your destiny, you make your future. So never give up yourself, because when you give up yourself, you will really give up your country”. In his speech, education means ready for the future of the country and all that people learn is for their national future purpose. While in my mind, “Good education is often to make people enjoy themselves in teaching practice, not suffering lots of pain from it. Lots of teaching practice proved, in reality, that young children getting good education is to keep their life in a right situation in their proper periods when they grow up, young people having to get education is also necessary for all of their life or work, not only for their future. The famous educator, Tao Xingzhi thought that education is to learn in practice. Another American famous educator, who was called Dewey also mentioned “Three Centers-Children’s Center, Activity Center and Experience Center”. Seeing the above, my finding that Dewey and Tao Xingzhi had the surprising similar educational thoughts called “Learning in practice”. In my opinion, I think “life is education, education is everywhere”. I believe that success of education comes from “Persistence + Reflection”. I also think all the teaching practice that we need to do is to keep on teaching, thinking over and over and adjustment. This paper mainly will aim to talk about the above my views on my school education and classroom teaching, including my understanding on school education and classroom teaching. I hope it will be able to give some helpful suggestions to the newcomers who are interested in language teaching and language research. That will be very meaningful to all that will read it.

This article, using Mocombeian phenomenological structural theory, argues that since their arrival on North American soil, the constitution of black American identity has been the product of their relations to the means and mode of production within the Protestant Ethic and the spirit of capitalism. As such, black Americans, and this includes the so-called black radical tradition, have never been agents in the constitution of their own identities. They have always been and remain (reactionary) pawns of capital seeking, dialectically or negative dialectically, to assimilate in the American social structure. Their assimilation takes place within the social practices of two social class language games (the black bourgeoisie and the underclass) that were historically constituted by different ideological apparatuses, the church and education on the one hand and the streets, prisons, and the athletic and entertainment industries on the other, respectively, of the global capitalist racial-class structure of inequality under American hegemony, which replaced African ideological apparatuses as found in Haiti, for example. Contemporarily, given both groups’ overrepresentation in the ideological superstructures of the American empire, they, antagonistically, have become the bearers of ideological and linguistic domination for all black youth the world-over, especially in the United Kingdom, which have tremendous consequences for their assimilation process. Under the assimilationist imperatives of the black bourgeoisie, the aim is integration and assimilation along the lines of traditional white Protestant agents of the Protestant Ethic and the spirit of capitalism with an emphasis on bourgeois prosperity, the black nuclear family, entrepreneurialism, and individualism. Conversely, the black underclass seeks integration and assimilation through the pathologies of their structural differentiation within the Protestant Ethic and the spirit of capitalism with an emphasis on identity politics, glorification of the self, wealth via sports and entertainment, and the communal thinking of the street life as the basis of black identity and culture.

Innovation and entrepreneurship is the overall requirement of the new normal of the national economy and the innovation-driven development strategy. It is known as the new engine of economic growth and has set off an upsurge of innovation and entrepreneurship in the whole society. All higher vocational colleges have followed the trend of development, and will implement the national decision and deployment, lay a solid foundation for mass entrepreneurship and innovation, and effectively enhance students’ entrepreneurial awareness, innovation spirit and creativity as an important way to promote the reform and innovation of higher education and the characteristic development of vocational colleges. In view of this, based on the practical exploration of innovation and entrepreneurship in higher vocational colleges, it is beneficial for higher vocational colleges to provide continuous intellectual resources and talent support for the development of innovative countries by carefully sorting out the existing problems and deeply thinking about the future trend.

The sports participation of college students is affected by many factors. Due to the physical and psychological differences between male and female college students, the factors affecting college students’ sports participation also show gender differences. An online questionnaire was distributed to students in four sports classes to investigate the influencing factors of male and female college students’ participation in sports. A total of 100 valid questionnaires were received, including 36 male college students and 64 female college students. T-test was used for analysis. The results showed that two of the 29 in investigated factors showed significant differences between men and women (p<0.05 and p<0.01). Conclusion: Male college students’ sports participation is more likely to be affected by their lovers. Male college students practice sports skills to win sports competitions stronger than female college students.

Early Childhood Education is becoming a greater factor in determining future learning behavior among students, yet there are various curricula in use and with varying effectiveness. The TIE curriculum is the most popular in Tanzania and it is unknown as to how effective it is in preparing learners for future learning and developing key soft skills. This study investigated pupils’ learning experience in early childhood education in schools using the Tanzania Institute of Education Curriculum [TIE] focus in the Kisarawe district. The objectives were; i) to assess the appropriateness of the teaching and learning environment of early childhood education; ii) to assess the actual learning practices of children in early childhood education in Kisarawe iii) to determine teacher’s competencies in the provision of early childhood education and iv) to examine the parents, community, and government support towards the delivery of early childhood education. The study was predominantly qualitative and employed a case study research design. Respondents were drawn from four public primary schools. It involved 4 head teachers, 8 teachers, 8 parents, 6 members of the school committee, and 4 classes with 340 pupils. The study employed purposive and snowball sampling techniques to select respondents. Interview guides, observation checklists, and documentary reviews were the instruments used to collect data. Findings indicated that the learning experience gained by pupils who use the Tanzania Institute of Education curriculum in early childhood education is low compared to what is expected and directed in the Tanzania Institute of Education curriculum. The schools in the sample had poor indoor and outdoor learning environments, and teachers were mostly uncertified and had little experience and competencies. There was low and poor support from parents and communities, and the local government who owned the schools contributed little to strengthen the learning experience and competence gained by pupils. The study recommends that education stakeholders effectively play their roles to enable the Tanzania Institute of Education curriculum to be implemented with greater success.

Young female students are often torn between family supervision, which can be positive or negative, and peer pressure to conform to the pressures on life decisions and behavior orientation as they grow up and learn. Little is known as to how they cope especially in a large city and with the media influence they face. The purpose of this study was to investigate the influences on female students’ behaviour (focusing on family supervision and peer pressure) in public secondary schools. Specifically, the study intended to determine the nature of family supervision and peer pressure among female students; to identify the main forms of behavioural issues that affect female students’ learning; and to find out in what ways family and peer pressure influences female students’ behaviour focusing on time management, work habits and truancy. The study has used a descriptive research design employing questionnaires and interview guides to collect data from a sample of 133 students, 50 teachers, 10 parents and 4 school heads. Qualitative data [mainly interviews with students, parents and teachers] collected were analyzed using thematic analysis techniques while quantitative data from a questionnaire used descriptive statistics approach. The study found that parents, school environment, peers and school management have both negative and positive effects on female students’ behaviour inside and outside school. It has also revealed that some students learn bad behaviour from their homes and community with some of the friends influencing to affect their academic performance. The most predominant disciplinary cases among female students were involvement in sexual relationships while schooling. The study concluded that parental supervision and teacher-parents coordination is essential in providing learning support to female students. The study recommends that administering corporal punishment in school should focus on shaping childrens’ behaviour rather than cause psychological torture. Frequent seminars and meetings between students and teachers on the importance of schooling are essential in raising awareness. Additionally, schools may invite experts from a government institution or private organization responsible for transforming students’ behaviour who will talk to students about adolescence and its social impact. Owners and managers of schools should establish a friendly schooling environment that promotes and enhance the teaching and learning process. Schools should be fenced to avoid external interactions and prevent truancy.

It is neccery to realize that soy bean has certain important benefits for people, either for food or for fulfiling the row materials needed by such industries as: animal feed, medicine, liquid paint, and printed ink industries. For food, people should consum the soybean, primarily by people who are living in the areas placed far from the source of fish and meat, because the soy bean contains nabati protein in a high level of percentege, around 40-41%, and nine kinds of important matters functioning to prevent women from breast canccer infection. People can consume soybean in the type of: fermented soy bean cake (tempeh), tofu, soy bean milk, et cetera. Although the soy bean is categorized as an important food, but the number of farmers cultivating this crop in Indonesia, as well as in the Pronvince of Nusa Tenggara Timur (NTT), included in the Sub District of South Amanatun as a semi arid area, are still very limited, while the availability of natural resources supporting the growth of this crop is very potensial, and then the soy bean needed by industries operated near by this Sub District dominantly are supplied by outside of the NTT, such as from: Java, Bali, and Lombok, even from U. S. A. Farmers in the Sub District of South Amanatun, only a few who have cultivated soy bean crops, while the majority of them have not cultivated yet. These facts indicate that among farmers probably because of their having different level of socio-nomic factors which inluence them to adopt or not to the soy bean crop farming. To examine whether or not these different level of socio-economic factors have signicant influence to the farmer’s adoption on the soy bean farming, then a study had been done in 2018. On the basis of results of the data analysis by applying the Linear Probablity Modle demonstrated that: the socio-economic factors which have the significant influence to the farmer’s adoption on the soy bean crop farming in the study area were: (1) the level of farmer’s knowledge related to soy bean cultivation and soy bean processing, (2) the level of farmer’s perception on the soy bean cultivation, (3) the level of farmer’s interest on the soy bean crop farming, and (4) farmer’s family income. The other soci-economic factors such as the level of farmer’s formal and non formal education, the level of farmer’s cosmopolitan, the farmer’s orientation on soybean crop farming, and the farmer’s size of land operated for soyben crop farming have no significant infuence to the farmer’s adoption on soybean cropp farming.
