10:30 am
my kids in an exclusive and. on the go in 60 minutes on the g.w. . coming. from the adventures of the famous naturalist and explorer. to soon the great clicks on the from the boats 250. working on the for the discovery. expedition in boyd on dino. oh i'm already on sorry guys i was in the middle of a really interesting chapter you know i always try to learn new things now that brings us to today's show which is all about school education and the importance of learning welcome to the 77 percent of the show that you see voiced to africa's you i'm your host eddie michael jr.
10:31 am
so what do we have for you today. our street debate takes us to tanzania needed money finds out how well prepared young graduates are for the future careers and what chances they have on the job market. and this is so cool in the notoriously floods of cape town school teacher. uses music and downs to counter violence. in the gambia roughs against political. as you can tell it's definitely part show so let's get to our 1st report in a while one of angola's largest cities most schools and universities are struggling with the lack of resources there aren't enough teachers classrooms or even teaching materials but many young people want to study so what does this mean for the future
10:32 am
let's find out what. one of the big. about how forfeits residents are under 15 years old they need universities vocational training and schools but the education system isn't that dusty the problems already start at primary school. we have $2680.00 pupils that's a lot but we only have 15 classrooms lots of futile they have to. where they also have to deal with the things that dust and noisy traffic. this does not meet education standards. low standards high tuition fees and expensive study materials are all big issues and it's even worse in the higher education sector one currently has 10000 university students and that number is on the rise many of them will get a degree but what is that really worth quality of university education hasn't
10:33 am
improved that meant a lot of students have degrees that's really worth anything at all they're just pieces of paper that's a big problem. so ed not dos santos has decided to take a best in the entire own. open his own solomon and studies marketing and business at a private university for siegel and the money that i earn here in my beauty salon i can pay my tuition fees and make a living on his business because. the young woman always dreamt of becoming a successful business woman she wants to expand head business and open more solids but the path to success is still full of challenges that come into nothing new ones . mission fees alone set me back 29000 kwanzaa month but if i see. if i study materials on top of that we're talking $50000.00 quantas
10:34 am
a month or so materials and books are expensive and particularly hard to come by in the province. $50000.00 pounds us that's about $1003.00 euros which goes towards their studies every month like more than $7000.00 students and one will attend private universities. high by young people in angola can't rely on the state to provide them with a stable future many of them will need to find out. deeply flawed system. the government should take advantage of these young minds and invest more in the education sector education should be more accessible and affordable so that young people have a bright future ahead of them. well talking about career i have always wanted to be a broadcast journalist so it's good to be doing it now but for some start on the
10:35 am
career of your dreams isn't so easy either come on iraq's young people in tanzania about the experiences. in the year 2016 that then deputy director for employment joseph nona made an admission that left many people shocked he said that 80 percent of the tons and workforce is unemployed and we're curious is it because of the quality of education or just the way the marketplace is set up well we're here at the university of jerusalem to try and get to the bottom of that i'd like to hear from some of the university students who are at the back do you think that what you're being taught in your classrooms is preparing you the saddest thing is that we have this fear from known you're studying in years you know that when you go out there the the rejection well so you are now we need to not knowing if this education is going to be if it will help me i don't know what it taught in schools what do what do we see
10:36 am
in schools is exactly the you friend from what you find you know society so when you go out of there you find deny you are ok i'd like to hear from this gentleman of the back who wants to contribute let me go deeper into the root cause of the problem what is supplied by the schools is not what is demanded by the employers their written document very thin curriculum has a huge misalignment all miss much we think actually what is outside the classroom what the employers need a person the qualifications of the person is not taught in the classroom ok let's hear from some people we haven't heard from what happens mostly is you don't actually go to practice what you have studied in school so i you my new public relations and of a tasing you go then then you're put as a customer care so when. us 2 months without actually gaining something that you went there for and that is your current so you do it for the 1st and 2nd day and
10:37 am
then when you finish you actually come to realize that what you have gained and what you need in your practical training is actually not i think leon took from this and let me speak to some people i haven't spoken to all come back to the country right now is under stress of technology because we're in the 2nd industrial revolution which is more ok for this country but this country we are the 2nd because we are in the electricity information and mechanical reformation but the whole world is in the 4th which is about the artificial intelligence about robotics you know we are lacking that consistency with the external world because of our system right now ok so can you give me some practical examples that you've experienced in your learning which you feel already give you a step back the electronics taught you something that you don't see a practical you see in class and he's very theoretical but when you go to the external field you don't see nothing like that so that is a show that was
10:38 am
a shock for me because i learned something like electronics in class but i went to the field and it was nothing like that all right and what does this pressure do because now we're talking about people who've worked so hard to get degrees and then they realize maybe they're not so relevant what does that mean for the future sometime you'd find a kid goes to school just because the parents say that if you go to that cause you're going to get money and then at the end of it all you're out of school and you find acted this is the only thing that i want to do an education has to be diversified because not only formal education is going to work we're in the 4th industrial revolution right now it's coming and it's coming very fast so we i mean like in the country are we prepared we have to know that the population always keep on growing but the system of creation is still of the eighty's so we have a number of we not we have a number of students but we have a lot of students but the resources are the same so how do you dispute the success . apostles' that's come the issue of unemployment so we've just heard something that has been added into the discussion 1st of all we had that the curriculum is
10:39 am
mismatched to the skills that are required in the market but now we're hearing that the classrooms are going to get inevitably bigger as the population grows how does that affect quality of delivery we have fewer lecturers and so minister wouldn't i remember some of the electorate has had to mark more than 2000 papers and some of them they really have to work day and night to ensure they're striving to lending because there is a difference between attending classes and being really learning the only challenge we are facing right now is when these students are graduating and you see them on the street they are looking for a job 23 years after their graduation all right i also want to pose the question of how this educational system in tanzania compares to global ones i know for example that you went to university right here and then proceeded up to 6 months to new york so how does that work when you're out there the 1st in your toe tease how to
10:40 am
teach yourself because i remember i had 1st assignment and i had to present in front of the class and. due to the due to one topic that we didn't learn i told that i told my my instructor that oh you know we haven't learned this and then look at it. you know. when you're in schools you only talk about 20 percent of the risk you need to teach yourself because in reality you're not going to have your professor with you. so that was actually like something that hit my head and opened up my eyes and since then i have been learning everything by myself all right let's hear from leandro and then of glad like to hear from you please apart from that i think we need to go back this country i mean i mean i'm a person i employ other people as well apart from having another job their work ethics i see people who come they work ethics we have a problem with work ethics i mean even like to 2 days ago a friend of mine was in hospital and a doctor was attending her and she was listening to music you know listening to
10:41 am
music while you're supposed to you know we have a very poor work ethic sometimes and do you think that comes from right from education being forced to do something you're not really interested in people complaining a lot but then people need to be self-motivated something is wrong somewhere we need to introduce i think these are the skills of him he was talking about i have to say this and talk of a station is making me a bit sad because we're hearing over and over again people saying don't depend on the degree forget about having a job create the space for yourself ok lilian i'm interested to hear from you i need you to be. take charge of their own employers will be looking at the end of the day you have one position and i have more than $200.00 applications to go through for that one position what starts to differentiate you have you volunteered where you at your student government body did you do so those are the things now are starting to put ok i'll put this person in this bucket and i'm this person has a different mindset they have teamwork and so those are the things that starts to
10:42 am
differentiate you so at the end of the day we can talk about all the challenges that are facing us and our insurmountable but we have to do something about it all right well we've had a very intense conversation here interest and the answer has been resulting from all of these young people that the 1st thing that needs to happen to improve the quality of education. it's for the students themselves to figure out why they even want this education my name is even money thank you for watching. so learn how to learn stay active and above all do not give up hope those were just some of the ideas our participants raised at our street debate but share your thoughts with us tell us about education in your country would be great to hear from you also check out the long version of the debates on you tube and join the discussion now come with me to south africa the cape flats in cape town have a pretty bad reputation when it comes to balance crime making the headlines the
10:43 am
most recent crime statistics from the police service review an overall increase in crime over $21000.00 medications were reported in the past year that's an average of 58 people at day so how do you cope if you have to grow up in such an unsafe environment while teachout flatirons 5000000 from bishop neva school came up with the mc way to keep the hate and violence at bay. break down the dominance of all teachers and if you sit down in this interview i speak i know it will have some through the way we will take in my listings and teach me i keep my peers on the look and what's interesting what's next in the stream and electronic you can point to them it's covered with critical talking and then to do research on 2 things that are in line with the content and it can
10:44 am
inspire them. they do face a lot of challenges in their households we talk about poverty we talk but gangsterism and all. other social ills within the community but i've seen a different type of child that has been stigmatized for what people seem to should lay this as and for and i always tell them i'm more than what i'm being seen. within the society itself is very nice and innovative and supports us a lot and helps us when we're going to difficult times the system that has been so . skilled the creativity of the children still be there and i certainly ellen is seriously holding something good satellite dancing in this film.
10:45 am
to see. if you want. to leave. it. to me. to do the exact issue. that it's at. least. i was in the radio one morning and this song came on the 1st of being from a boy to some points you can be seen with confidence and in the project so the next thought was. this can actually be. quite a powerful thing to inspire the lead and it will take my place and posted it on the face with the video. i think the most thing that i like about my job is the fact that i can influence someone positively i know what these children are going
10:46 am
through i'm not immune to their challenges and i feel somehow i can contribute to a positive change with you know country. i. don't know about you but i want to be in that class. with such an atmosphere on the teacher like him i would study hard and definitely pass all my exams so this is a challenge to all of you to. find a way to engage students to get the best out of them that is very important. to our next reports we are visiting another school in kenya. national school. is proving that one man's trash is another man's building material. plastic. it's ocean cleanup day here in la more kenya the children might
10:47 am
have made a game out of it. islam ali this is more of a personal conservation mission. if you mean pretty good friday every friday it's nice to get it when you know money is back again we're doing here . but it goes a long way you know. if i have. he told us we can go to the beach after collecting trash. i collected 4 bottles. and. like many african countries kenya is grappling with thank god there are no public dust bins for people to dump their trash and there's no garbage collection with the trash piling up people have to take martis into their own hands collection and recycling initiatives like almost helped to plug the gap. 8 years ago the extent of pollution really heat home.
10:48 am
but one time. i was. you know and there was a lot of you and one not doing anything you know so i thought maybe a good idea motivated if you can come up and clean up a little b. you know that's how it started. but omar didn't just collect the bottles he used them to build a nazi school. this is the school now all the bottles here. but lamo is a conservative island in some locals were not happy when opened to the school is of . course. everything but
10:49 am
my. the whisky and the wine used to getting the book was. important. and with a little time the locals accepted that this is one way uncle but was really do not belong in school. and my child's name is run and he joined the school this here was his 1st time at school i feel good when i see kids having a chance to study and besides studying they also learn about the environment domiciled of them as at almost school these youngsters i'm learning vital lessons not only in the classroom but out in the open and when the ocean needs their help. whatever inspiring project hopefully the politicians in the gambia will also be inspired by. in our next segment it's been about 2 years since the governments there underwent radical overhaul but not much has changed in the small west african
10:50 am
country. puts the blame squarely on the politicians the unemployment rate among young people is huge from think many of them to see. elsewhere. why government. but bush may be enough is enough they the only wants take each take it away will stop us to. power made us this is difficult with the 77 percent from the national budget only one percent make it. to the budget out of this 1st year we see the trap struggling to get out of this little much. place the whole night no opportunities to crab and expect us to hold our new plymouth on the rise that's because of rise when they drive full price is going to be hard we can't even afford to sell 5000 feet in foot the system has built just for that don't shoot because there's no chip in the pot too many promises made after
