Chapter 2: Literature Review

Introduction
Poor student development has been established to stem from the inability of teachers to effectively manage classroom behaviour, also stemming from ineffective instructional strategies.

The unproductive, unengaged environment of classrooms run by teachers without adequate classroom management skills results in a need to examine the efficacy of classroom management as a practice in addressing these problems. The following literature review examines the existing literature related to classroom management, providing a definition of classroom management, determining its effectiveness, and ...

Introduction

The achievement gap in formal schooling between African American children and other groups is stark. This has proven consistent over time (Coleman, et al, 1966), across jurisdictions (Clotfelter, Ladd & Vigdor, 2009; Bailey & Dziko, 2008), and throughout the K-12 system (The National Center for Education Statistics, 2014). Improving these issues is an obvious direction forward. Yet, the obstacles are numerous and multifaceted (Sanacore, 2004). Relative to the public domain, the school system is often targeted for a lack of understanding in relation to educating young African Americans of low socio-economic status. The curriculum is long been criticized for being de-contextualized to ...

Better communication means using the same definitions. The words that are used by the petroleum industry to describe the amount of production, waste and loss are not clearly defined. Transparency is absolutely needed and communication with the IOCs must be improved. The petroleum industrial sector must be held responsible for what they say and what they do. Unravelling the doublespeak in written and spoken messages from the IOCs needs to be a serious goal. The people of the Niger Delta can be involved in translating the dialogue and regulatory intentions of the IOCs. They live in the reality and involving ...

Since the decade of the 1960s, the families of black Caribbean boys have been particularly concerned about the academic performance of their children. The reason for this is due to an apparent gap between these Afro-Caribbean children and other students, especially white ones (National Union of Teachers | NUT | The Teachers' Union, 2007). Today, their scholastic success at the attainment at General Certificate of Secondary Education (GCSE) remains well below the national average. In 2006, 44.9 percent of these children gained five good GCSEs or their equal compared to 57.3 percent of white students (DfES, 2007). The figures ...

A work like Pearl S Buck’s The Good Earth is by its very nature orientalist in the Saidian sense Because it was created within the structures of Orientalism as both a genre and as an epistemological category. Buck was born the child of an American missionary in China and spent much of her formative years there. Buck’s early life and experiences as an American and the child of a missionary informed her preconceptions of China, its people, society, and culture. Orientalism in this sense isn’t just a literary genre: an orientalist work is not just, a ...

ABSTRACT

The research argues that although a gas flaring stoppage is not successfully in-place in Nigeria, fitting the appropriate technology with complementary economic and institutional factors can lead to near-zero or zero gas flaring. Nigeria is a developing country with a unique culture of many tribes and one of the largest growing urban populations in the world. Infrastructural, political and economical challenges to meeting the goal are introduced. Reinjection of gas back into wells is not available as an option to gas flaring because a large region for gas production is wetlands (Buzcu-Guven et al. 2012). Wetlands ...

As a result of this, there is more demand for better services from a public sector that is responsive to the prevailing conditions (Pepple, 2009, pg.1). Stalled development in Nigeria has been blamed on the failure to achieve development targets and goals. Scholars argue that is ...
