Education service
Haycock,kafi(2001)closing the achievement gap;
defined a school as the formal placeor environment where by learning and
teaching process takes place .the term gap as used in question means the
variation of status among two things with the same or different
characteristics,Haskins,Ron james kempke (2009). A new goal for Americans high school,
the future of children defined society as the group of people who share the
same history, language and culture although those people can vary in same
aspects
According to
anthropologist ON Studying society defined society as a group of people or
community occupying a certain geographic locality and sharing the same culture.
In Tanzania in order to remove a gap between the
society and schools the following ways should be done.
Education
service should relate with the society,
Tanzanian education system still is in the colonial master than do not relating
to the life of real society surrounding them, therefore in order to remove the
gap the schools and Universities should change the Education system syllabus
and curriculum
There should be interaction between school and
society, means that there should be connection of knowledge thought in school
with a certain society or in other way we can say application of knowledge thought
in school should fit the society.
Parents should interact in giving there decision
about the Education process by cooperating with teachers on assessing the
students development. but in Tanzania the parents believes that teachers are
the only one who have a responsibility to check the students development
something that is wrong they have to know that they are owners of both students
and school compounds so they have to make a decision so as to develop the
education and removing the gap through interacting with teachers in decision making,
through that the gap between the school and society can be removed.
Also the education service provided should be more
practically than theoretically because due to theoretically based education we
produce none well trained professional for example a physician teacher may
teach u how to connect electricity theoretically through only paper writing things which led
to production of in well trained which can't meet the need of the society
In general
the government have a great role to remove such gap by ensuring that what learn
in schools relate to the society that can help to reflect social development
but not only itself the parents and society in general are the main component
to remove it by providing there views or decision on the education system also
the opponents should interact with society so as employ themselves in dairy
activities basing on farming, carpentry and livestock keeping that are
performed in dairy society life through that the gap can be removed
Re-establishment
of of the Educational policies, ; Education policies as the reference to
educational framework and system that governing and directing education sector
in Tanzania, for example the re-establishment of school curriculum because the
curricular is Dynamic that change year to year according to the say of reader
into power and the education tool like books have to be relevant to society
example in the advance and secondly schools there is mathematics, biology,
history and chemistry that are non applicable in the society rather than
studying the colonial legacy that undermines our thinking cause it not of own
Tanzanian plan.
Language to
be used in education process should be considered ; language is most factor
influencing the gap between school and society because the language used an
teaching from nursery up to University is the English and other foreign
languages that is not used in the society,so the way to remove such gap is the
change in the language that is used in education process by introducing the
Swahili language in all levels of education from nursery to University whether
the government or private school the only language to be used should be Swahili
that is used mostly in all parts of Tanzania rather than using English and
French that are differ to society language that is swahili we use
