Here are a few key differences between Kenyans and Nigerians that may help dispel stereotypes:
Kenyans tend to have a more reserved demeanor compared to the outgoing nature of many Nigerians. Kenyans often value composure and restraint, conducting themselves in a calm, thoughtful manner. Nigerians, on the other hand, have a reputation for being lively, energetic and enthusiastic. Their "happy-go-lucky" spirit is on full display.
Family and community play a central role in both cultures, but Nigerians demonstrate their connections more outwardly. Large, boisterous gatherings with singing, dancing and celebration are commonplace. Kenyans express warmth and belonging in quieter family settings.

Improving Retention of Millennial Teachers Through Effective Induction Practi...
This document summarizes a presentation given by Dr. Janet F. Painter and Dr. Joyce H. Davis on improving retention of millennial teachers. It discusses the characteristics of millennial workers and challenges they present for traditional institutions. Examples are given of successful recruitment and retention strategies used by companies like Deloitte, Cisco Systems, and Carolina Healthcare Systems that could be applied to the education field. These include clear communication, opportunities for collaboration, customized recognition programs, flexible work arrangements, and professional development. The document concludes by considering what teacher educators can learn from other fields to better engage and retain millennial students and teachers.
C sink passport #1
The document discusses global competitiveness and education. It defines global competitiveness as a country's productivity level determined by institutions, policies, and factors. Countries are ranked based on 12 pillars including education, health, innovation, and technology. Global education teaches about diversity, globalization, sustainability, and social justice through understanding different cultures, languages, geography, and current events. It helps students think critically about global issues and prepares them for an interconnected world. The roles of teachers are to guide independent learning, encourage critical thinking, and establish international standards to increase global success.
Passport 1 Sarah Gioconda
The document discusses global competitiveness in education. It notes that while U.S. schools focus on math, science and technology, students need more exposure to current global trends. International test rankings show other countries outperforming the U.S. Top-ranked countries like Singapore and China utilize different education systems focused on bilingualism, critical thinking, and competition. To increase global competitiveness, the U.S. should implement curriculum changes emphasizing current events, foreign languages, and different cultures. Assessment and teaching methods could also incorporate more essays and real-world assignments to develop skills like problem-solving and communication.
Greyson wells passport #1
This document discusses what countries need to do to become globally competitive in the future. It emphasizes the importance of teaching foreign languages at a young age, adapting to cultural diversity by communicating with students worldwide, and being aware of current global events by researching and discussing them. It also stresses allowing students to enjoy learning with an open mind, making learning a two-way street where others' ideas are considered, developing curiosity and passion over intelligence, fostering teamwork skills, leveraging technology skills, and cultivating communication skills, open-mindedness and adaptation to new ideas.
Graduation+rates (A. Bowles)
The document discusses the high school dropout epidemic in the United States. It notes that 70% of dropouts felt they could have graduated and 88% had passing grades, indicating bad grades do not fully explain why students drop out. Many dropouts said classes were uninteresting and they felt unprepared for 21st century careers. The document calls on teachers to make learning more engaging by connecting it to students' interests and future careers to help remedy the problems of disengagement and lack of preparation. It also emphasizes the need for early warning systems, increased parent involvement, and college/career readiness programs to address the dropout issue.
Dropouts+and+prevention+strategies (H. Baldwin)
This document discusses strategies for preventing high school dropouts. It notes that almost half of all public high school students and Black, Hispanic, and Native American students do not graduate with their class. The top reasons for dropping out are lack of interest in classes, not feeling challenged, and personal reasons like parenting or work responsibilities. Warning signs include poor attendance, grades, and behavior starting in elementary school. To address the problem, the document recommends increasing engagement, implementing early warning systems, improving instruction, and changing policies at the school, state, and national levels.
Gruning passport 1
This document discusses the importance of learning about other cultures in today's globalized world. It argues that students need more opportunities to interact with peers from other countries to become globally competitive. While technology provides tools to connect internationally, classrooms still do not teach students enough about the important cultural aspects of other societies beyond superficial customs. The document advocates for students to learn early and develop curiosity about other places so they can better understand and engage with the increasingly interconnected world.
Being+globally+competitive
Teachers should be excited to learn and continue learning themselves in order to motivate students. They need to teach students how to interact with others face-to-face and develop people skills, which are important for being globally competitive. Having passion for their subjects and instilling curiosity in students will help students become the future leaders that are needed.
T hodge the right stuff with transitions
The document discusses the importance of global education for students and outlines several key components of developing "the right stuff" in modern classrooms. It advocates cultivating students' curiosity and passion for learning over intelligence, teaching them to learn in multiple ways including by being open to different cultures and viewpoints. It also emphasizes regularly assessing student understanding along the way rather than just with tests, and leveraging technology to enhance learning for different styles. The overall message is that mixing these various components together can help create globally competitive classrooms.
Sarah grier passport1
To become globally competitive, students must learn how to learn by constantly absorbing new information in hands-on and visual/auditory ways. Their curiosity quotient (CQ) and passion quotient (PQ) are more important than their intelligence quotient (IQ). Educators should instill curiosity in students by teaching them to educate themselves and get excited about learning. They should also instill passion by helping students find their inner motivations. Developing people skills will become more valuable than computer skills. Nurturing both the left brain and right brain is important for logical and intuitive thinking.
Anna norman the right_stuff_
The document discusses how to prepare students for jobs in the modern world by focusing on developing certain skill sets and attitudes. It outlines TL Friedman's "Magic Four" which are: 1) the ability to learn how to learn, 2) having passion and curiosity, 3) liking people, and 4) nurturing both the right and left brain. It emphasizes developing curiosity, passion for learning, creative and problem-solving skills, teamwork, and incorporating technology and hands-on learning through projects rather than solely traditional testing. The goal is to prepare well-rounded students who can apply their learning in real-world situations.
Brittany wilfong passport+ 1
The document discusses the skills needed to be globally competitive, including learning how to learn through constantly absorbing information, teaching yourself, and learning new ways of doing things. It emphasizes nurturing curiosity and passion over intelligence alone. Teachers should use varied teaching methods, ensure all students understand, and continue learning themselves. Being globally competitive requires skills like problem solving, communication, collaboration, and learning independently using technology. Project-based learning, 21st century skills, emphasis on technology, and alternative testing strategies can make classrooms more globally competitive.
Anna yates what+skills+will+make+our+students+globally+competitive
1) Internationally high-performing education systems such as Finland and Singapore recruit top-performing students into teaching, provide teachers with ongoing training and professional development, and pay teachers competitively.
2) For the U.S. to improve student performance, it needs to raise standards for teachers, provide training and incentives for teachers, and focus more on developing students' problem-solving, critical thinking, and social skills rather than standardized test performance.
3) Students would benefit from a focus on deep conceptual learning, curiosity, collaboration, and developing a second language, rather than solely prioritizing intelligence or standardized test scores.
Alex global+education
The document discusses the need to reform education in the United States to better prepare students for global competitiveness. It states that the U.S. has fallen behind other developed countries in terms of student academic success. It argues that students must learn how to continuously learn throughout their lives. They need motivation to be curious and engage in lifelong learning. Education also needs to focus on developing 21st century skills like collaboration, communication, and independent learning to succeed in a global job market.
L.b. global competition 1_
Global competition is discussed as a factor in many areas including jobs, wages, education, and social welfare. Nations are said to have to adapt to global market imperatives or risk losing economic standing. Teachers are instructed to better prepare students for this new competitive world. The document argues that to be globally competitive, one must first learn how to learn through being excited about and enjoying the learning process. It states that in today's world, passion and curiosity are more important than raw intelligence, as new tools allow self-directed learning of anything of interest. A curious child is said to work the hardest.
Cregg Laws having+what+it+takes
To be globally competitive, students need to develop certain skills including the ability to learn how to learn, have passion and curiosity, nurture interpersonal skills, and nurture their right brain abilities. Some key skills are being excited about learning, constantly absorbing new information, having passion and curiosity that exceeds intelligence, nurturing empathy and relationships, and developing creative and big picture thinking. Cultivating these skills will help students live effectively in an interconnected world with limited resources and increasing diversity.
Jeff Thomas globally competitive
To be globally competitive, students must learn how to learn from a young age. This allows them to continually acquire new skills and knowledge as the world changes. It is also important to have passion for their education and a career, as well as support from family. Developing strong leadership and maintaining competitiveness will help countries stay globally competitive in the future.
T. hodge the right_stuff_
The document discusses the importance of global education in preparing students for the future. It defines global education as developing perspective consciousness, state of the planet awareness, cross-cultural awareness, and an understanding of global systems. It also stresses the importance of curiosity, passion for learning, technology integration, and formative assessment in creating a globally competitive classroom. A variety of tools and teaching methods should be used to engage students and ensure they are learning the material along the way.
Amy Travis - The Right Stuff (Sum 2010)
The document discusses the "right stuff" needed for a globally competitive classroom. It identifies four key principles: learning how to learn, having passion and curiosity, liking people, and using both sides of the brain. Teachers are encouraged to inspire learning, ignite students' passion, and teach creatively using both logic and creativity. High-performing countries like Finland and Sweden use open-ended assessments, student-centered learning, and highly trained teachers to develop globally-competitive students.
