Cultural capital and underdevelopment in less developed countries: The case of northern Ghana

AbstractDevelopment paradigms under the sustainable development goals (SDGs) identify cultural capital as an indispensable asset for development in less developed countries. However, the phenomenon of culture and underdevelopment nexus has attracted little research attention in Ghana. The study used modernization theory and ethnographic research methodology to explore the role of cultural capital deficits in northern Ghana's underdevelopment. Our findings suggest a close correlation between cultural capital and underdevelopment relative to unethical attitudinal standards, value deficits, and an anti‐development mindset. We recommend the inclusion of cultural reorientation in the design of development intervention programs to uphold high integrity standards. We further suggest that the curriculum and concept of quality education in schools should be broadened to include inculcating high‐value standards. Our study has contributed to academic discourses on cultural capital's role in the search for sustainable development in less developed countries, particularly in implementing the SDGs.

Вплив педагогічної комунікації на ефективність освітнього процесу в закладах загальної середньої освіти

Teachers' communication skills are one of the key factors that influence the quality of learning and student development. Teacher-student interaction can influence students' attitudes to learning, motivation, ability to cooperate and learn independently. Effective communication is a key factor in learning success. It not only helps to ensure that the material is learned correctly, but also keeps students motivated and creates a favourable emotional climate in the classroom. This can only be achieved through good communication techniques, such as listening and speaking, using positive and supportive language, and presenting material in a clear, understandable and engaging way. Its impact on learning effectiveness depends on the quality of communication itself, which includes various forms and methods of communication, such as verbal and non-verbal communication.
 The study of the impact of pedagogical communication on the effectiveness of the educational process involves the study of various aspects, such as the emotional side of communication, interaction between teacher and student, the use of different methods of interaction, and others. In a world of profound social and economic changes, the reform of the education system should promote the establishment of a person as the highest social value.
 Therefore, understanding how pedagogical communication affects the effectiveness of the educational process is very important for improving the quality of education in secondary schools.
 The article analyses the current state of pedagogical communication in general secondary education institutions and its impact on the effectiveness of educational and management processes in these institutions. Therefore, we see the study of technologies focused on the personal influence of participants in the educational process on the development of communication competencies of teachers and managers as a prospect for further research in this area.

Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene Policies and the Enhancement of Quality Education in Lower and Upper Basic Schools within Region One Education Directorate, The Gambia

This study focused on the importance of School Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene (WASH) policy in enhancing the quality of education in Lower and Upper Basic Schools within Region One Education Directorate of The Gambia. The study utilised a mixed-methods approach, combining qualitative analysis of policy documents with quantitative data obtained from questionnaires administered to head teachers. The Human Rights-Based Approach (HRBA) and Systems Thinking provide valuable theoretical lenses to analyse the lack of WASH policies. The HRBA emphasises the recognition of WASH as a fundamental human right, while the Systems Thinking approach considers the interconnectedness and complexity of the WASH system. The findings indicated that a significant number of schools in the region lack a WASH policy or rely on general directives, leading to inconsistent approaches and practices in addressing WASH issues. This inconsistency results in inadequate provision of WASH facilities, ineffective hygiene education, and a lack of clear learning objectives for students. The absence of WASH-related guidance in key school management tools and policy documents further exacerbates the challenges. The study highlighted the need for a comprehensive School WASH policy to oversee, regulate, and provide guidance for the implementation of WASH standards in educational institutions. Recommendations included developing and implementing a comprehensive School WASH policy, enhancing the curriculum framework to ensure the coverage of WASH topics, providing clear guidelines and resources, incorporating WASH into policy documents, conducting capacity-building and awareness programmes, and establishing a robust monitoring and evaluation system.
