sholay2011:Bia nwannem, you get sense! You just spoke undiluted truth. This is the gospel we have been preaching for a long while now. Imagine a country where graduate students are treated like high school students. A university where lecturers believe they are doing fee-paying students a favour by writing half-baked and ill-researched text and compelling them to buy! Where lecturers only write journal articles just to qualify for the next promotion and not necessarily to contribute to knowledge! Where many lecturers have never really practiced the courses they teach. In fact, I just tire jare! 1 Like |

What I'm interested in is the manner you picked up on him. Nobody is overly perfect...even you! |

YemziAdez: Make the best use of this opportunity, your research experience would count for you if you intend to puruse graduate studies immediately after your NYSC. |
Re: Thread For Aspiring Lecturers by jeebz: 11:11pm On Dec 03, 2016 |
iamclime: I stand to be corrected. Even in first world countries, many of the academic have no real industry experience. Upon completion of PhD programmes, they get openings as a postdoc and then assistant professor. A Masters/Phd degree is proof of ability to research and your teaching skills are honed along the way through Teaching assistant-ships. 1 Like |

Lexmane: What changed? Can you enlighten us as to why your passion for lecturing is dying? |
Re: Thread For Aspiring Lecturers by Lexmane(m): 2:51pm On Dec 05, 2016 |
Sheikwonder:well,the quest for money top the myriad of reasons i have. As a result, I no longer read like before as i engaged in business(repair and sale of phones and laptop on campus). And because i no longer read like before, i started getting undesirable grades. And I am sure you know that is not an attribute of a good lecturer. . |
Re: Thread For Aspiring Lecturers by Sheikwonder(m): 3:39pm On Dec 05, 2016 |
Lexmane: Hmmm, I understand the need to 'hustle' to make ends means. Yet as an economist you must be well acquainted with the 'scale/table of preference'. If you hustle to the detriment of your studies you may be sad with the aftermath. I think you need to strike a balance and find out what it is you want. You can actually manage to do both and still succeed but it would take extra grit and gumption from you. Are you up for that? Besides, I know that OAU is not a smiling school, they will gladly help you fail if you don't wake up. Sort out your priorities and work out your personal goals, you'd be surprised at what you can achieve when you plan. If truly you have a passion to teach then you won't be weighed down. Pick up yourself and start again. I am rooting for you! All the best! |

Re: Thread For Aspiring Lecturers by ogunsinamayowa(m): 4:52am On Dec 06, 2016 |
I have nurtured an ambition to publish research paper in a journal and present paper at conferences on Policy and development in Nigeria before i graduate. And later become a scholar, that will be famous at the world stage, in my profession. I'm aware of the myriad tasks to undergo, and discipline to sacrifice a lot of pleasure for my dream. But, my problem is the lack of direction despite the presence of mission. There is mission, but I'm ignorant of the perfect way to achieve it. I need advise and mentor. I will start 200 level next year, and my course is Political Science. Scholars in the house, please help me. I will like to pursue Public Policy or Political Economy to PhD level, and my area of specialization will base on International economic policy, Electoral System law/ policy, and Social Welfare program policy in third world countries etc. Thank you. cc tanimola22 pato405 YemziAdezi 1 Like 1 Share |

I don't see those that don't have educational qualifications as a lecturer. I see them as an interlopers who have come to take what rightly belong to us. Let me put it clear. You're not a lecturer or a teacher if you don't have any of these qualifications: NCE, B.Ed, and M.Ed. Those with PGD can be managed but on the ground that the right teachers have been employed. |
Re: Thread For Aspiring Lecturers by fratermathy(m): 7:47pm On Dec 06, 2016 |
Nwanna2588: Lecturing is NOT the same thing as teaching. Teaching qualifications like NCE, B.Ed, M.Ed, PGDE, etc, are basically for Secondary School Teachers and not University Lecturers. While the degrees may make a lecturer deliver more professionally, they are certainly not a requisite for lecturing. Some lecturers without any background in education even lecture far better than those who have. In the final analysis, a background in Education is NOT needed to lecture ANYWHERE in the world. What is needed is a Masters/Doctorate degree. That is the status quo. Even in the Faculty of Education, you need a M.Ed/Ph.D/Ed.D/etc, to lecture. A B.Ed. won't do you any good or give you a upper hand except in Secondary Schools and Colleges of Education. 3 Likes |
Re: Thread For Aspiring Lecturers by Nwanna2588: 7:06am On Dec 08, 2016 |
fratermathy: Don't forget that those without the qualifications I mentioned are not licenced by TRCN until they acquire PGDE. So they are dabblers in the profession. |
Re: Thread For Aspiring Lecturers by jeebz: 7:55am On Dec 08, 2016 |
Nwanna2588: I think you are getting it twisted, lecturing and teaching are entirely different and both are regulated by different agencies. The unions are also different. Frathermathy has laid it bare and there is no room for gainsaying or contention. Lecturing requires BSc/MSc/Phd while teaching requires B.Ed/M.Ed/PGDE. |
Re: Thread For Aspiring Lecturers by Nwanna2588: 7:43pm On Dec 08, 2016 |
Which body then is the professional body for them? Is it not TRCN? |
Re: Thread For Aspiring Lecturers by fratermathy(m): 8:13pm On Dec 08, 2016 |
Nwanna2588: ASUU is the only recognised group for University lecturers and it is even not a professional body. It's more like a trade union. TRCN is for secondary school teachers and lecturers at the colleges of education. It has nothing to do with University lecturers. Even lecturers in the Faculty of Education are not obligated to be registered with TRCN. |
Re: Thread For Aspiring Lecturers by Nwanna2588: 5:52pm On Dec 09, 2016 |
fratermathy:No lecturers in the faculty of education are obligated to be registered. |
Re: Thread For Aspiring Lecturers by fratermathy(m): 8:18pm On Dec 09, 2016 |
Nwanna2588: I may believe that since it's their profession. |
