Education is a lifelong process. It is a knowledge which leads to the development of personality. It develops every aspect of human life. Education enhances the inner capacity of a person. The concept of education is as old as the origin of human being. Man is the most intellectual being in the creation. He endowed the power to receive knowledge, to think and imagine and reflect and speculate the fact. We can understand the concept of education by dividing into two parts-Eastern and Western concept of education. First evidence of education we found in Egypt civilization. The other hand Vedic education is the mirror of all the education. In ancient time education refers to the worship of God, stated to religion and fulfilment of public and civic duties and related to society and protection. It was pupil-centred education. Social skills were evolved through training in fulfilment of duties. Self-study and meditation play an important role. Education specially related to explanation and memorization.

The study investigated perceived influence of teaching methods on students' academic performance in Shorthand in Colleges of Education in Kwara State, Nigeria. Three Objectives, questions and hypothesis guide the study. Descriptive survey research design was used for the study. The target population of the study was made up of 767 NCE III students of Colleges of Education in Kwara State. The sample size for the study consisted of 200 NCE III. The instrument tagged Perceived Influence of Teaching Methods on Students' academic Performance in Shorthand in Colleges of Education in Kwara State, Nigeria (PITMSAPS) was used for the purpose of data collection. Research questions were analysed using descriptive statistics of mean and standard deviation while independent sample t-test and Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA) was used to test the hypotheses at 0.05 level of significance. The result of the data collected and analyzed indicated that lecture method, demonstration method and project method has positive influence on students' academic performance in shorthand in Colleges of Education. The result of the null hypothesis showed no significant difference between the perception of male and female students regarding the influence of lecture method, demonstration and project method on students' academic performance in shorthand in Colleges of Education. It was concluded that students taught Shorthand using project method, demonstration method was not different from those taught using lecture method in Colleges of Education in Kwara State, though the methods can be effective when combined together in teaching Shorthand. It was recommended among others that teachers should promote demonstration method of teaching Shorthand as it will encourage and motivate students to participate actively in class.

It is no news that education forms an intrinsic part of man’s life. As such, an individual without education is as good as a man born blind, groping blindly in the dark world without any guideline principles to model himself. Just like culture, education is a means of transmitting a way of life from one generation to the other. By this, education cannot be divorced from both the learners and the society which they ultimately help to build. However, the quality as well as the personnel involved in education has widely become an issue of great concern to the world at large. The reason being that, the task and process of educating people cannot be entrusted in the hands of unskilled personnel, in other words, mediocre, for in sure, it will only lead to a dead end. In recognition of the foregoing matter of fact, this piece shall shed light on the importance of education. To achieve this feat, this piece shall kick off with a definitional analysis of education, to be followed by the importance of education. The study ends with a conclusion which is a peroration of our main findings and claims.

Scholastic achievement is the goal of any training. The trainee's attitude to a subject greatly influences the outcome. This study sought to look at the influence of the learner's attitude towards shorthand subject on one's performance in the subject by examining the 'self' and the 'significant other' variables namely subject teachers and course peers. The case study method was used where all the 40 students and 6 teachers in the Secretarial Section of Thika Technical Training Institute, made the study population. The results are a significant basis for effective policy making on shorthand subject in Tertiary Level Institutions in Kenya. Both qualitative and quantitative data was elicited through questionnaires, interview schedules and document analysis. Data was developed by use of the SPSS text editor. The findings indicated that labeling the subject as 'difficult' through peer influence had resulted in the 'self-fulfilling prophesy' of ...

There is no agreement among teachers, psychologists, politicians, and philosophers as to the purpose of education, nor is there any agreement as to what constitutes education. If the purpose is to train good citizens, we are faced with the fact that conceptions of good citizens differ in different countries. Can be an attempt done by the adult members of a human society to shape the development of the coming generation in accordance with its own ideals of life. This seems an unsatisfactory definition because: a-It is a definition of training rather than of education, and b-The rising generation will live in the world of tomorrow. Whatever definition we accept of education and of the purpose of education, it will be coloured by our own philosophy of life. There appears to be a need for each one of us to define our own ideals and purposes. We may then hope for the good fortune to be able to realize them in part. The attainment by each child of his maximum potential intellectual efficiency through the cultivation of good mental habits would result in an increased measure of human happiness. There is perhaps nothing new in this, for many will see in this belief merely a variation of a Greek conception of happiness. This belief, held by a teacher, gave rise to a personal problem. What means can be evolved that will result in each child's attaining the maximum possible intellectual efficiency. The problem has been tackled in a restricted sphere, latterly among a group of children whose mental powers are so limited that only by exercising them at their maximum efficiency can they hope to attain any real happiness. We have to draw attention to a view that the overriding aim of the teacher is the matching of capacity by attainment. Education has been passed down from above, and hitherto attempted chiefly through the medium of words. We believe that it should be built up from below, and that for the majority it should be chiefly through the medium of the concrete, the visual, and the everyday. The first requirement for all who teach, or who aspire to teach, appears to be an appreciation of: a-The difference between education and instruction,

The purpose of this study was to determine the ability of the student mathematic connection by using the realistic of mathematic educational approach is better than conventional learning. This research used quasiexperimental design with two-group design, they were pretest-posttest. The sample of this study was taken from random class, that is taken 2 classes with total number 54 students. Class VII-1 as an experimental class which taught by using realistic mathematic approach that consists of 27 students, class VII-2 as control class which taught by using conventional learning that consists of 27 students. The instrument of this research used the essay test and observation. The result was analyzed by using t-test. After the learning is done, the data descriptions were collected on pres-test and post-test to determine students' mathematic connection ability during mathematic learning. The result showed that the ability of the students' mathematic connection by using the realistic of mathematic educational approach is better than conventional learning. Furthermore, based on the observation of student activity in the learning process by using the realistic of mathematic educational approach is very positive and they became more active than before.

The purpose of this study was to systematize the experience of the implementation of the project: "Learning by Teaching", developed at the Universidad Tecnológica de Durango, Campus Bilingual International and Sustainable (UTD Campus BIS, Mexico), which consisted in having students from this university teach English to students in basic education as a strategy for the learning of the language. In order to answer the main research question: "How did the experience of executors of UTD Campus BIS and the other agents go during the execution of the project "Learning by Teaching"?, the socio-critical paradigm was used through the method of systematization of experiences. Based on four axes of systematization: perceptions, difficulties, facilities and learning methods, and eleven categories that gave an account of the main results expressed by thirteen students (executors), who dealt with the fact that perceptions went from uncertainty, fear, nervousness and enthusiasm, to the satisfaction and the consideration of the project as a life experience were defined. The main difficulties arose in the areas of group management and in low English language level of project recipients.
