Education

In the recent past, education in Kenyan has been criticized as an examination oriented system that does not help learners in the country gain useful knowledge and skills that can be properly applied to the society. Indeed, as a commentator once argued, "our education system trains us to be robots: People who can’t be creative and innovative."

Discuss this argument and recommend how Kenyan education system can best mobilize and utilize instructional resources and processes for maximum learning experiences of students. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Felixmusau (talkcontribs) 14:54, 8 December 2006.

New Page on Gender Disparities in Kenyan Education

As part of a class I am taking, I will be making a new wikipedia page and ask for input! I propose to create a new Wiki entry called “Gender Disparities in Kenyan Education”, which currently doesn’t exist in any form. Currently the only articles related to this are Education in Kenya, Sex Differences in Education (parent article) and Women in Kenya. The combination of studying education in Kenya with a concentration in gender disparities, particularly the disparities that females face, does not hold a presence in Wikipedia. My article will first try and define what gender disparities in education are and what kind of problems they face, broadly including female presence in different levels of education, difference in sex success rates in school, and discrimination different sexes face while in school. It will then elaborate on general statistics in transition and overall academic performance in both males and females and delve into the overall difference in the quality of education that Kenyans face in terms of sex. Next it will examine the differences in these outcomes through different levels of education, address the challenges of gender disparities in education and their subsequent consequences. Finally, I will suggest some possible solutions to help Kenya in pursuing gender equality in education.

    Does anyone have any suggestions on scholarly articles I could draw from? Njeri Muturi (talk) 04:23, 1 March 2014 (UTC)

Article Suggestion

Hello! I have a few suggestions to enhance the quality of this article. For starters i would like to provide more detail into the education system structure section, specifically in early childhood education. Most importantly I would like to re write the Factors affecting education in Kenya section and use scholarly sources to enhance the legitimacy of the page. Lastly, I would like to add a section which outlines opportunities of education for all Kenyan people. This would detail the educational opportunity youth have from each region of Kenya.
