Psychology: Historical Backgroud, Definitions, Branches, Theories & Schools Of Psychology

Historical Background Of      Psychology Psychology is the scientific study of the mind and behavior. It is a multifaceted discipline that seeks to understand the complex relationships between the brain, the environment, and behavior. The origins of psychology can be traced back to ancient civilizations, but the modern field of psychology as we know it today began to take shape in the 19th century. One of the earliest recorded accounts of psychology is found in the ancient civilizations of Egypt and Greece. In these societies, people believed that the gods and goddesses controlled human behavior and that certain rituals and offerings could influence their behavior. In the Middle Ages, psychology was largely seen as a branch of philosophy, and philosophers such as Rene Descartes and John Locke made significant contributions to the field. It was not until the 19th century, however, that psychology began to emerge as a distinct scientific discipline. In the late 1800s, Wilhe...

Malpractice: Examination Malpractice In Nigeria, Factors Promote Examination Malpractice & The Need To Eliminate Examination Malpractice For Future Development

Analysis Of Examination Malpractice In Nigeria            Examination malpractice, also known as cheating on exams, is a serious issue in Nigeria. It refers to any act that undermines the integrity of an examination process. This can include behaviors such as copying from another student's exam, using unauthorized materials during the exam, or bribing examiners to pass. There are a number of reasons why examination malpractice is a problem in Nigeria. One reason is the high pressure to succeed academically, which can lead students to cheat in order to get good grades and advance to the next level of education. Another reason is the lack of strict penalties for those who are caught cheating, which may encourage some students to take the risk. Additionally, corruption and the lack of oversight in the examination process can contribute to the problem. Examination malpractice has serious consequences, both for the individual students who cheat and for the integ...

Community Schools: The Rise Of Community Schools In Northern Nigeria and Challenges Affecting Community Schools

Rise Of Community Schools In Northern Nigeria                 Community schools are schools that are run and managed by the community rather than by the government or a private organization. They are often established in areas where there is a lack of access to education or where the quality of education is low. In northern Nigeria, community schools have emerged as a response to the challenges faced by the education system in the region. These challenges include a shortage of trained teachers, inadequate infrastructure and resources, and low levels of funding. As a result, many communities have taken matters into their own hands and established their own schools to provide education for their children. Community schools in northern Nigeria are typically run by local organizations or community groups, and are often funded through donations, grants, and other forms of community support. They may also receive support from government agencies or...

School problem: School Dropout In Nigerian Secondary Schools & How to Reduce It

School Dropout in Nigeria In Nigeria, the rate of school dropout is a significant problem, particularly in secondary schools. There are a number of factors that contribute to this problem, including poverty, lack of access to education, and cultural and social barriers. Poverty is a major factor contributing to school dropout in Nigeria. Many families cannot afford the cost of education, including fees, uniforms, and other necessary supplies. As a result, children may have to drop out of school in order to contribute to the family income. Lack of access to education is also a significant issue in Nigeria. Many rural areas do not have sufficient schools or other educational facilities, which can make it difficult for children to receive an education. In addition, the quality of education in some areas may be poor, which can also lead to students dropping out. Cultural and social barriers can also contribute to school dropout in Nigeria. For example, some families may place a higher valu...

It is characterized by unstable moods, behavior, and relationships.

Abbas Ibn Firnas was born in the 9th century in Izn-Rand-onda Al Andalusia the present day Ronda, Spain but spent most of his adult life in the Emerate of Cordota, one of the biggest learning hubs during the Umayyad caliphate dynasty. In 875 century, at the age of 65 to 70, Ibn Firnas attempted to fly using a hang glider he manufactured made of feathers and wood, after hours of observing the bird's behaviours in flight. Ibn Firnas flew for several minutes, gliding on the air currents like raptor for 10 minutes, the flight left him disappointed and injured. He later realised his mistakes for neglecting mechanics of landing which couldn't balance his flight in air culminating crashed landing. In another 12 years he lived after the abortive attempts, Ibn Firnas realised that slow landing is achieved through collaborative effort between tail and wings, conclusion he reached after decades of researches of bird flight and their landings brought series of development in aviation indus...
