Science, Maths Teaching In Indigenous Languages To Begin Soon –FG by boman2014: 2:12pm On Mar 09, 2018 |
Federal Government has said that the teaching of science subjects and mathematics in indigenous languages in primary and secondary schools across the country would commence soon. Director - General of the National Centre for Technology Management, Prof . Okechukwu Ukwuoma , stated this during a retreat organised for researchers in Akure , capital of Ondo State . Ukwuoma , who is a member of a committee set up to supervise the project, also disclosed that experts were contracted to translate science and mathematics terminologies to the various indigenous languages spoken in the country . He said , “ Last year , the Minister of Science and Technology and the Minister of Education inaugurated a committee to teach science and mathematics in indigenous languages . The major issue in that regard is the translation of terminologies to the languages for which we have consulted experts in different languages in the country . The don , who commended the Federal government on the idea , expressed optimism in the success of the project . He also noted that many textbooks had already been translated to some Nigerian languages through the efforts of the committee . The NACETEM boss stressed the need for researchers to contribute toward the development of science and technology in the country . He lamented the lack of good research works in the country , blaming it on the lust for quick and easy money amongst the people. “ All over the world everything about science and technology is always hard to sell because you need to convince people. Nigerians are good researchers , but they lack something . “ Many businessmen who are supposed ensure the commercialisation of research inventions prefer to buy fake ones outside the country and come back to make quick money ,” he said . However , Ukwuoma disclosed that the Federal Government had established a National Research and Innovation Fund, which would be accessed by entrepreneurs or innovators interested in developing science and technology inventions The don said , “ Information is what people need . When people lack information, they find it very difficult to find solution to some problems. So we need really to get some information about what is going on .” http://punchng.com/science-maths-teaching-in-indigenous-languages-to-begin-soon-fg/ |
