Media and Technology in 21st Century Higher and Tertiary Education in Africa : Insights from Teachers’ Colleges in Zimbabwe / Costain TANDI / Langaa RPCIG (2023)
Titre : Media and Technology in 21st Century Higher and Tertiary Education in Africa : Insights from Teachers’ Colleges in Zimbabwe Type de document : e-book Auteurs : Costain TANDI Editeur : Langaa RPCIG Année de publication : 2023 ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 9789956553051 Note générale : copyrighted Langues : Anglais (eng) Résumé : This book interrogates media and technology in the 21st century higher
and tertiary education in Africa. Using Zimbabwe as its case study, the
book highlights the immense changes that the digital revolution has
brought to higher institutions of learning in Africa, including changes
in teaching and learning. Framed from an anti-colonial perspective, the
book argues that digital change, though critical in revolutionising
education in Africa, has come with a price as it has resulted in some
epistemological erasures and injustices meted against the poor. The book
makes a critical contribution as it quests to correct the misdemeanours
and injustices caused by digital gaps in African societies. The authors
argue that the future and success of digital technology in Africa lie
in how well African countries will culturally and contextually sensor
technology and attend to the problems caused by digital gaps. The book
provides a re-invigorated overview and nuanced analyses of the role of
media and technology in revolutionising 21st century higher and tertiary
education in Africa. It provides pointers and insights on how African
countries can reformulate their education policy in a manner that is in
sync with the level of digital technology of the time. This is an
important addition to critical debates on media and technology studies
in education in Africa.Nombre d'accès : Illimité En ligne : https://neoma-bs.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://www.scholarvox.com/book/88950343 Permalink : https://cataloguelibrary.neoma-bs.fr/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=583608
Titre : The Political Economy of Heaven and Earth in Ghana Type de document : e-book Auteurs : Charles PREMPEH Editeur : Langaa RPCIG Année de publication : 2023 ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 9789956553174 Note générale : copyrighted Langues : Anglais (eng) Résumé : In March 2017, the president of Ghana, Nana Addo Dankwa-Akufu announced
his intention to build a national cathedral to the people of Ghana. The
announcement elicited watertight counter arguments that morphed into two
a priori re-litigated assumptions: First, Ghana is a secular country
and second, religion and state formation are incompatible. Informed by a
frustrating paradox of an overwhelming religious presence and
concurrent pervasive corruption in the country, public conversation
reached a cul-de-sac of “conviction without compromising.” In The
Political Economy of Heaven and Earth in Ghana, Charles Prempeh deploys
the national cathedral as an entry point to provide both
interdisciplinary and autoethnographic understanding of religion and
politics. The book shows the capacity of religion, when properly
cultivated and curated as a worldview to answer the why questions of
life, will foster personal, moral, collective and ontological
responsibility. All this is needed to stem the tide against corruption,
commodity fetishism, environmental degradation (illegal
mining—galamsey), heritage destruction and religious exploitation.
Prempeh recuperates a historical fact about the mutual inclusivity
between religion and politics—politics helping to manage differences,
while religion provides a transcendental reason for unity to be forged
for human flourishing. Separating the two is, therefore, ahistorical and
an obvious threat to the intangible virtues that answers, “why and how”
questions for public governance.Nombre d'accès : Illimité En ligne : https://neoma-bs.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://www.scholarvox.com/book/88950344 Permalink : https://cataloguelibrary.neoma-bs.fr/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=583609 Covid-19 and the Dialectics of Global Pandemics in Africa : Challenges, Opportunities and the Future of the Global Economy i / Munyaradzi MAWERE / Langaa RPCIG (2021)
Titre : Covid-19 and the Dialectics of Global Pandemics in Africa : Challenges, Opportunities and the Future of the Global Economy i Type de document : e-book Auteurs : Munyaradzi MAWERE Editeur : Langaa RPCIG Année de publication : 2021 ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 9789956552023 Note générale : copyrighted Langues : Anglais (eng) Résumé : The prevalence of global pandemics has been timeless and universal. In 1918, the Spanish Flue grounded Spain and her neighbours. In 1997, 2014 and 2020, the Ebola virus wreaked havoc in West Africa in the same manner that polio had ravaged the globe. Since 2019, the Coronavirus has forced most economies onto a downward spiral. Despite concerted global attempts at observing World Health Organization guidelines, the Coronavirus has been changing peoples' lives, forcing most economies onto their knees, endangering lives and livelihoods, making a mockery of global medicine and causing the widespread despair and helplessness that has come to be known as 'the new normal'. Unlike the other pandemics, the mayhem, complexities and dialectics caused by Covid-19 have been matchless, requiring a systematic study and necessitating a volume like this one. The volume's 16 well-researched chapters argue that despite Covid-19's enormous lessons and predictions about even greater future pandemics, humanity can ill-afford to relent in its determination to conquer the pandemic in the same way that human resolve has defeated past pandemic. As such, the volume provides hope and direction to the global community on how best to deal with Covid-19 and pandemics of similar or even higher magnitude in the future.

Titre : Global Capital's 21st Century Repositioning : Between COVID-19 and the Fourth Industrial Revolution on Africa Type de document : e-book Auteurs : Rewai MAKAMANI Editeur : Langaa RPCIG Année de publication : 2021 ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 9789956551804 Note générale : copyrighted Langues : Anglais (eng) Résumé : What happens at the interface between Afrocentricity and COVID-19 is cause for wonder in a world that is anxious to short circuit global solidarity by trampling Pan-Africanism. Revolutions, including the Fourth Industrial Revolution, are rarely contextualised within the framework of Pan-Africanism and Afrocentricity even when they are celebrated as beneficial to the world. Interfacing Afrocentricity, COVID-19, Pan-Africanism and the Fourth Industrial Revolution, this book teases out the profound challenges of the 21st century. Calling for African solutions premised on African solidarity, the book critically engages the contemporary technological solutionism and technological evangelism that undergirds the Fourth Industrial Revolution and efforts to find vaccines for COVID-19. Unflinchingly interrogating these issues, the book is useful for scholars and activists in education, African languages, sociology, social anthropology, political science, history, religious studies, development studies, communication, medical sciences and legal studies.

Titre : People, Predicaments and Potentials in Africa Type de document : e-book Auteurs : Takehiko OCHIAI Editeur : Langaa RPCIG Année de publication : 2021 ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 9789956551675 Note générale : copyrighted Langues : Anglais (eng) Résumé : The term 'African Potentials' refers to the knowledge, systems, practices, ideas and values created and implemented in African societies that are expected to contribute to overcoming various challenges and promoting people's wellbeing. This collection of articles, focused on African societies, is based on the idea that 'Africa is People'. In this book, African people are placed at the centre of the discussion. The book's contributors, all of whom believe in African people and their potentials, consider women, minors and young people, people with disabilities, entrepreneurs, herders, farmers, mine workers, refugees, migrants, traditional rulers, militiamen and members of the political elite, and examine their predicaments and potentials in detail. Africa is people, and African potentials can be found only in African people themselves.
