Skills Over Topics: Rethinking Project-Based Learning For The 21st Century

Kosimjon Bannaev — Wed, 15 Oct 2025 00:00:00 +0000

This article argues that high-quality project-based learning (PBL) prioritizes the deliberate development of transferable skills over narrow topic coverage. Using a qualitative review of research and multiple international case studies (Finland, Singapore, United States), it shows that skill-centered PBL produces deeper learning, higher engagement, and better alignment with workforce competencies. The paper proposes a design framework for shifting from topic-led to skill-led projects, details rubrics and assessment strategies, and discusses implementation challenges and policy implications. Findings suggest that when topics act as contexts rather than goals, learners demonstrate stronger problem-solving, collaboration, communication, and self-regulation.

Cultivating Resilience: The Socioeconomic Impact Of Small-Scale Agriculture On Peri-Urban Household Livelihoods In Nigeria

Dr. Chiamaka J. Okoro — Wed, 01 Oct 2025 00:00:00 +0000

Purpose: Amid rapid urbanization and persistent poverty in Nigeria, the socioeconomic role of small-scale agriculture in peri-urban zones remains empirically underexplored. This study aims to bridge this gap by examining the impact of small-scale agricultural activities on the poverty status and welfare of peri-urban households in Nigeria. Specifically, it identifies the key determinants of participation and quantifies its effect on household income and poverty levels.

Methodology: The study utilized a multi-stage sampling technique to collect primary data from peri-urban households through a structured questionnaire. The analytical approach involved descriptive statistics, the Foster-Greer-Thorbecke (FGT) class of poverty measures to analyze poverty incidence, depth, and severity, and a binary logistic regression model to identify the determinants of household participation in small-scale agriculture.

Findings: The results reveal a statistically significant lower incidence and severity of poverty among households engaged in small-scale agriculture compared to their non-participating counterparts. The logit model indicates that the educational level of the household head, access to informal credit, and household size are significant positive determinants of participation. Furthermore, participation in small-scale agriculture was found to have a positive and significant impact on total household income, serving as a crucial supplementary livelihood strategy.

Originality/Value: This paper provides robust empirical evidence on the vital role of peri-urban agriculture as a poverty reduction tool in the Nigerian context. The findings offer actionable insights for policymakers to design targeted interventions—such as tailored extension services and micro-credit facilities—to support and enhance the resilience of peri-urban livelihoods, thereby contributing to the achievement of national food security and poverty alleviation goals.

Current Issues And Challenges For Non-Native English Speakers In Academic Writing

Karshieva Sarvinoz Ural qizi — Mon, 20 Oct 2025 00:00:00 +0000

This article examines the multifaceted challenges faced by non-native English speakers (NNES) in academic writing, with a special focus on the higher education context in Uzbekistan. Academic writing, as one of the most important components of modern research and scholarship, requires not only linguistic accuracy but also a deep understanding of rhetorical, cultural, and disciplinary conventions. NNES students often experience linguistic barriers such as limited vocabulary, misuse of cohesive devices, and frequent grammatical errors. Furthermore, rhetorical and cultural disparities complicate their adaptation, since English academic discourse emphasizes linearity, clarity, and critical argumentation, which may differ significantly from their first language traditions. Psychological obstacles, including writing anxiety, fear of criticism, and lack of confidence, also negatively affect productivity. Institutional factors, such as the absence of academic writing centers, insufficient access to international databases, and lack of trained faculty, further exacerbate the problem. The article reviews recent international and local studies and argues that integrated support programs, scaffolded writing instruction across curricula, and culturally responsive pedagogy are essential in addressing these issues. In addition, the use of digital technologies, peer collaboration, and writing workshops can contribute to improved performance. Overall, the paper concludes that comprehensive, inclusive, and innovative approaches are necessary to help NNES students fully participate in global academic discourse.

Developing Students' Reflective Skills In Literary Education

Qodirova Dilnoza Alisher qizi — Wed, 08 Oct 2025 00:00:00 +0000

The development of reflexive skills among students is a central concern in modern educational theory and practice, particularly in the domain of literary education. Reflexivity, often associated with metacognition and critical reflection, empowers learners to examine their thought processes, challenge assumptions, and deepen engagement with texts. In literary studies, reflexivity enables students to situate themselves within interpretive practices, link literature to personal experiences, and recognize broader social and cultural dimensions. This article examines theoretical foundations, pedagogical strategies, and practical methods for developing reflexive skills in literary education. Drawing on insights from philosophy, psychology, and pedagogy, the study highlights the transformative role of reflexivity in fostering interpretive depth, self-awareness, and critical literacy. By analyzing classroom practices such as reflective writing, dialogic teaching, and collaborative learning, the article proposes effective models for integrating reflexivity into literary curricula. The findings suggest that reflexive pedagogy contributes not only to academic achievement but also to the holistic development of students as independent, critical, and empathetic thinkers.
