bros i appreciate ur reply, but was tinkin of gettin d lecturin job after masters, b4 i proceed for PhD, how realistic can dis be pls?

The NUC minimun requirement is a Ph. D. Go get it dear, and the sky will be your limit.

Why dont you want to try another university?

You want your uncle to influence your results and employment or
the school is really highly rated?

_{and if your uncle is a dean of the faculty, that should be the first point of information for a career, right ?}

As much as lecturing looks easy to d outsiders, wallahi ba wasa (e no easy). Developing course works, marking essays and exams, and the hardest one is research, u have to publish papers in renowned journals if u want to progress in this area, If u no sabi ur head fit fall off

Mai Suya, Do you sell notes/hand outs to students?

^^^
no, but I sell suya in the ebenings,

@ semid Its a choice to use my suya personality, so don't judge a book by it's cover. Chao.

Why do our academic system encourage cramming?

I observe that its only those who're expert at cramming that come out with top grades (the only exceptions are students form Engineering and Physical Sciences). After 5 years they tend to forget all what they've been taught in School.

Because the students are so lazy and only care about easy grade and quick money

Thats not a good explanation. Even if students are lazy, its the responsibility of the teacher, who is the academic parent of that student, to instill discipline in the student and to discourage lassitude.Thats not a good explanation.

The teacher can only do so much the society does the bulk. In a society where hard work is not rewarded, and compensation is based on who u r and not what u can do. The teacher can only do litle, I stayed abroad for a while where hard work pays and people work to earn a living and to get a work u need to know, and if u want to know u must learn and if want to learn u need to work hard in school,

Here the reverse is totally the case so u see, the students are lazy not because they want to be, but because it doesn't pay in our society to be hardworking,

Cramming is part of education, actually.
In fact, it's doubtful that you can get through many science programs without cramming at all.
Nigeria's education problem is not caused by cramming.

Yes cramming is part of education but its only good when u understand what u cram
