THE STANDARD
EDUCATION
Kenya is in the fourth year of implementing a new competency-based curriculum for all levels of schooling. The new curriculum seeks to develop student competencies, including mastery of content, critical thinking and complex problem-solving.
This new curriculum is the third top-down overhaul of the country’s education system since Kenya’s independence in 1963. The previous curriculum was deemed too academic and examination-oriented. It was deficient in hands-on, experiential learning, and practical experimentation to allow for competence.
The goals of the new curriculum are worthwhile. But a controversial government proposal to radically change teacher training is unwarranted. Under new guidelines by the Teachers Service Commission – the government agency which administers public school teachers – the Bachelor of Education (BEd) teacher training degree is to be abolished.

To see how prevalent this product placement is, my team first identified songs on the Billboard Hot 100 list between June 16 and Sept. 22, 2018 which had 180 official music videos. We then coded for electronic cigarette product placement and imagery, visible brand names and number of views as of Oct, 25, 2018, among other categories.
