This paper is based on an empirical research aiming how far guiding principles and practices of peace education followed in secondary schools of Mizoram. The concept of peace education, guiding principles of peace education and practices on peace-related activities being followed in the secondary schools of Mizoram were explored. The study revealed that peace education was not being taught as a separate subject. Peace education component was infused in the existing curriculum and also was being taught through co-curricular and extra-curricular activities. Besides, teachers must reflect in their behavior all the guiding principles of peace. They should encourage the students for critical thinking, reasoning, develop awareness on societal problems and issues, broaden their outlook, concentrate on studies, and to be associated with various activities. In Mizoram, students’ unions and church organizations used to play a prominent role in shaping and moulding the character of the people starting from the early stage of life which ultimately benefits the society and the nation. However, in the context of rapid change in social structure and modernization process, there is need for inculcating the values of peace for which schools have to play important role</span><span lang="IN">.</span>

Administrative Strategies

This study was carried out to assess administrative strategies for enhancing Peace Education (PE) in 29 Junior Secondary Schools in the region of Agadez, Niger Republic. The study was descriptive. Quantitative and non- parametric data that helped determine majority views were collected, tallied, converted into simple percentages and means using a calculator. Information from documents that were initially in French was translated into English. The research used a total population of 487 teachers and school administrators from 29 Junior Secondary Schools in the region of Agadez. All the 84 administrators from the 29 Junior Secondary Schools were included in the research as their number was small; 388 teachers were sampled out of 403 using the Research Advisors’ Sample Size Table and Simple Random Technique. The research instrument was a self-designed structured questionnaire titled Administrative Strategies for Enhancing Peace Education Questionnaire, which was validated and had a reliability index of .75. This paper dealt with the curriculum content that could enhance Peace Education in Junior Secondary Schools in the region of Agadez. The findings revealed that the Peace Education curriculum content was scanty. The study recommended, among others, that the Junior Secondary Schools Peace Education curriculum should be revised, and should therefore encompass relevant issues that would mould the students’ minds, issues that would help them to learn to live together and enhance mutual understanding in community; to this end, the Peace Education curriculum should mainstream Human Rights Education, Conflict Resolution Education, Disarmament Education, Development Education, International Education, Civics and any other type of education that is likely to bar the students from getting involved in violent conflict or even terrorism.

Education Of Students

Russia’s integration into the global innovation sphere, characterized by the emergence of an information society, the transition to an economy based on knowledge, the value of human capital, has determined a new vector for the development of general education. It is faced with the strategic task of updating the content, teaching methods and achieving on this basis a new quality of education in the context of maintaining its fundamental nature and at the same time meeting the modern and innovative needs of society, the state and the individual. The solution to this problem is facilitated by the comprehension and implementation of new approaches to the continuity between primary and secondary schools, which ensure the recognition of their complementary, partner coexistence in the context of strategic lines of interconnection, coordination and complementarity of goals, updated content, organization and technologies of advanced education for the optimal formation of personal, meta-subject and subject results of students in the implementation of Federal State Educational Standard of Primary General Education and Federal State Educational Standard of Basic General Education. The article proposes one of the ways to solve this problem - to increase the professional competence of teachers of primary general education and teachers of mathematics of basic school in the field of implementing the continuity of mathematical education. The solution to the stated problem is impossible without special training of teachers of primary and secondary schools, which ensures the formation of readiness to implement the continuity of mathematical education of students in primary and secondary schools in the unity of motivational, technological and reflective components.
