The Yorùbá value proverbs, philosophy and education very highly because they are deep- rooted in the culture of the people for instance, proverbs often occur informally in everyday discourse and in oratory to garnish, conceal or hint. The cultural affinity between the speaker and the audience makes the proverbial utterance meaningful to the hearer in the society. Like other people in universe, Yorùbá philosophy is ‘life affirming’. That is Yorùbá traditional philosophy has to do with life, perhaps in human beings, animals, rocks, soil and plants. The Yorùbá are very observant and the events in their immediate environment have a considerable impact on their mode of life. In Yorùbá society, the system of education is inherent in Yorùbá oral literature such as proverbs, poems, songs, folktales and riddles. The main function of Yorùbáorature is to influence the behaviour of one another in the society. The concept of ‘O?mo?lúàbí (the well-behaved one,) is very prominent, and it is on it that the principle of Yorùbá education is based.

The social representations of school performance have proven to be very diverse, and vary according to the aspirations of the stakeholders involved, the position they occupy in the system and the issues attached to it. In Morocco, there are multiple stakeholders in the public education system (The ministry of education and its decentralized services, teacher unions, the civil society, parents, students, etc.), and each of them has a specific mission which is in dynamic complementation with the other stakeholders in the system. The school principal remains the local actor par excellence. He occupies a decisive position in the functioning of the school. This position, which involves critical decision making, is where the execution of educational policies is exercised and where the aspirations of the different stakeholders are expressed. This paper aims at questioning how school principals perceive the \"performance of their schools\". In other words, it enquires on the signification (meaning) that these school leaders give to the performance of a school. To respond to this inquiry, data is collected using a questionnaire, which is administered to 40 different schools in the region of Guelmim Oued Noun.

This study was done by Krishi Vigyan Kendra, Baramati in the year 2020-2021. One of the activities is public education and information dissemination by using local media and other methods. But little is known about level of public awareness of the disease and its prevention methods. So, this study generates important information regarding the level of public awareness of the disease which in turn contributes to designing better mitigation strategies. Hence this study was conducted to explore for educating peoples and providing awareness in public and also for encouraging public collaborations towards COVID-19 among residents of Western Zone, Maharashtra, India specially villages near by Baramati tahasils. Most participants mentioned common symptoms of the disease. Participants indicated different modes of transmission of COVID-19, explicitly; hand shaking, hugging, sitting together, contact with droplets during coughing and sneezing, making contact with infected air and objects, skin penetration and sharing clothes. 95%peoples under this study completed their Vaccination within the time.

This study is exploratory in nature and attempts to examine if undergraduate University students belonging to affluents families with good command in English can teach underprivileged youth who otherwise would be taught by trainers coming from remote backgrounds. This paper is a qualitative report of a unique program that was initiated by a university in collaboration with an organization in India. It has been observed that not-for-profit organizations face challenges when it comes to engaging quality resources. For example, in this study, getting quality trainers to train underprivileged students is a challenge as these trainers themselves come from remote areas. NIIT Foundation (NF) is a not-for-profit organization that skills underprivileged youth to become placeable for entry level jobs in various sectors. Since spoken English is considered a vital skill as a selection criterion, NIIT Foundation created a short course namely ‘English for Work’ to get underprivileged student to get jobs. This is the first time that the foundation got university students to teach their students. The course is a short course completely structured. After a careful selection process, the organization identified 10 students from a university studying B. Tech to teach the underprivileged students. Going forward, the 10 University students will be referred to as mentors. These mentors were assigned 10-15 students i.e., NF underprivileged students. These students come from different states of India and took the sessions (classes) online. The findings are qualitative in nature. They are more in terms of experiences shared by both mentors and students. The findings seem very positive and meaningful both for the mentors and the students. All the students got placed, which is an indicator of the success of the study. The findings can therefore be claimed as being encouraging and credible to build a case for a scalable model.
