Paradigm Shift in University Education: the Alethia University Ago-Iwoye Perspective
(2024-06-15) Ogundipe, O.T.
A Paradigm Shift for Higher Education We are witnessing fundamental and dramatic changes across different areas of our lives. In fact, since the beginning of the 20th century, the rate of change has accelerated in various fields with the term "acceleration of history" more commonly used to describe this phenomenon. This acceleration continues its course today and will intensify as we move deeper into the 21st century. Today, we are living in a world that is constantly transforming. Our ability to adapt and grow is now invaluable, and the idea of a systemic “paradigm shift” across multiple areas has profound implications not only for our personal and professional lives but also for the area I have devoted my entire professional career to: university education. We are shifting the lens through which we view the world and the new inventions and capabilities being brought to life. For university education, it can lead to a more authentic, fulfilling experience, and greater success for students and learners everywhere. On a personal level, we can take advantage in more meaningful ways of life which has to offer to our day-to-day jobs. We are continuing to engage discussions about the value of a college degree, credentialing, admissions, university costs, student learning outcomes and success, attainment, paths to employment, and policy issues that still remain unresolved. Just as the leap from Newtonian physics to quantum mechanics revolutionized our understanding of the universe, we should encourage a redefinition of our beliefs and perspectives on higher education. By adjusting and changing perspectives, we should transition from old paradigms to new ones, encouraging groundbreaking viewpoints like moving from a 20th century exclusionary approach to higher education to a truly 21st century inclusionary model where the “getting in, getting through and getting out” framework of linear educational institution can efficiently be substituted, reconsidered, and adapted to provide individual and professional success for all learners globally.

Globalization & Liberalization of the World Economy: concepts, historical developmentand implications for the less developed countries and labour movement
(Centre for Constitutionalism and Demilitarisation (CENCOD), 2001) Onyekpe, J.G.N.
The idea and practice of Globalization and Liberalization of the world economy are not new although they have become far more topical and significant than ever before. The processes of globalization and liberalization of the world economy are related, as globalization cannot be achieved without the liberalization of trade and other relation among the nations of the world. Globalization covers all areas of inter-star relations such as economic and commercial relations; political, military and defenc , cultural etc. Our main focus in this paper is on the economic and commercial aspects. This paper is an examination of the concept and historical development of globalization and liberalization, their aims, and their implications for the economies of the Le s Developed Countries (LDes) or the world and the Labour Movement. It is our position that globalization and liberalization are nothing but imperialist processes and as such the Labour Movement in the exploited and oppressed areas of the world (to which igeria belongs) should neither fold its arms nor clap for imperialism and its agents. The Labour Movement must wage a consistent struggle against imperialism ) euphemized as globalization, and against capitalism euphemized as liberalization of the world economy.
