Abstract

Anlamlı eğitim herkes için vazgeçilmezdir ve ulus inşasında büyük sorumluluk alır. Bu çalışmanın amacı, Etiyopya eğitiminin yeniden üretilmesinde lisenin 9-12. Sınıf yurtaşlık ve etik eğitim ders kitaplarının rolünü incelemektir. Yurttaşlık ve etik ders kitaplarında toplumsal cinsiyet, kültür ve din gibi sosyal kimliklerin örüntüsü eşit olarak temsil edilmemektedir. Eğitim sistemi genel olarak eğitimdeki eşitsizliklerin mevcut örüntüleri yeniden üretme ile sonuçlanmıştır, örneğin kayıdı ve sonuçlar. Özellikle, kadınlar ve Müslüman toplumlarda genellikle, ilköğretimden üniversiteye kayıt olma oranının çok düşük olduğunu ve çok az sayıda kişinin yüksek vasıflı profesyoneller olarak çalışmakta olduklarını belirtmektedir. Bu çalışmayı yürütmek için araştırmacı, yarı yapılandırılmış görüşme ve belge analizi yöntemleri gibi nitel araştırma yöntemleri kullanmıştır. Ders kitaplarında farklı kimliklerin bulunması, hem eğitim hem de sosyolojik örneklerden önemlidir. Sunulan kişilikler, tüm öğrencileri sosyalleşme sürecinde etkileyebilir. Ders kitaplarında, mevcut örüntülerde bazı sosyal kimlikleri tutarlı bir şekilde ortaya koyma ve temsil edilmeyen diğer sosyal kimlikleri yok sayma sorunu vardır. Eğitim müfredatında toplumsal cinsiyet, kültürel ve dini çeşitliliği eşit temsilde bulunmak ve önyargılardan kaçınmak için eğitim planlayıcıları mevcut ders kitaplarını gözden geçirmelidir

Reproduction in Ethiopian Education: The Role of High School Civics and Ethical Education Textbooks

Abstract

Meaningful education is essential for everyone and has a great responsibility of nation building. The purpose of this study is to examine the role of high school civics and ethical education textbooks in reproduction of Ethiopian education. The pattern of social identities such as gender, culture and religion is not equally represented in civic and ethical textbooks. The education system has generally resulted in reproducing existing patterns of the educational inequalities such as enrolment and the outcomes of education. Specifically, females and Muslim societies are generally having very low percent of enrolment from primary to university education and few people work as highly skilled professionals. To conduct this study, the researcher used qualitative research methodology like semi-structured interview and document analysis methods. The presence of different identities in textbooks is important from both the educational and sociological stances. The personalities presented can influence all students in their socialization process. In the textbooks, the existing patterns have a problem of consistently revealing some social identities and un representing or ignoring other social identities. In order to have equal representation and avoiding biases of gender, cultural and religious diversity in school curriculum, the educational planners should revise the existing textbooks
