Exploring Dalit Students’ Perceptions towards Learning English
type: item
description: This study explores the perceptions of Dalit students towards learning English, aiming to examine their experiences, challenges, and motivations in educational contexts. This study employed a quantitative survey methodology to explore the perceptions of Dalit students towards learning English. A structured questionnaire was the primary tool for data collection, allowing for systematic and quantifiable measurement of students' attitudes, motivations, experiences, and challenges in learning the language. The target population for this research consists of Dalit students enrolled in selected five community schools of Birendranagar Municipality. The findings reveal that while English is perceived as a language of opportunity and upward mobility, many Dalit students face significant barriers, including limited access to quality instruction, socio-cultural discrimination, and a lack of supportive learning environments. Despite these challenges, participants express a strong desire to learn English, driven by aspirations for better educational and career prospects. The study highlights the need for more inclusive language policies and targeted support for marginalized students, ensuring equitable access to English education. The paper concludes with recommendations for policymakers, educators, and stakeholders to address the existing gaps and promote social justice in English language learning for Dalit students.

Perceptions and Practices of English and Nepali Medium Instruction
type: item
description: This study aimed to explore the perceptions and practices of key stakeholders—students, teachers, school management committee (SMC) chairs, and parents—regarding the use of Nepali Medium Instruction (NMI) and English Medium Instruction (EMI) in government-funded community schools. A quantitative research design was employed, with a structured questionnaire distributed to 200 participants, including students (N = 100), teachers (N = 50), SMC chairs (N = 20), and parents (N = 30) from four government-funded community schools across Nepal. The schools were selected through purposive sampling to ensure representation from both NMI- and EMI-based instruction. The study findings revealed a strong parental preference for English Medium Instruction (EMI), with 70% of parents considering it important or very important. However, teachers expressed a more balanced view, with 70% recognizing the significance of Nepali Medium Instruction (NMI) and 68% acknowledging the importance of EMI. Teachers perceived EMI as beneficial for improving students' English language proficiency (48%) and enhancing career prospects, while also noting that NMI fosters a better understanding of academic concepts (58%) due to language familiarity. Both parents and teachers observed that EMI can hinder students' confidence, with 32% of parents and 37% of teachers reporting that language barriers in EMI reduce students' self-esteem and classroom participation. Additionally, limited access to educational resources in Nepali was highlighted by 33% of parents and 35% of students. While the highest percentage of teachers (40%) and students (47%) preferred NMI, a majority of parents (52%) favored EMI. The findings contribute to the ongoing discussion on the medium of instruction in Nepal’s education system, particularly regarding the balance between preserving cultural identity and improving future educational and career opportunities for students.

Trends and Destinations of Foreign Labour Migration in Nepal
type: item
description: Migration plays a crucial role in the interplay between population dynamics and development, particularly in the context of Nepal. This study aims to identify the trends and destinations of foreign labor migration from Nepal, highlighting its significance to the nation's economy. While recent data indicates a continuous increase in foreign employment patterns, there remains considerable uncertainty regarding the sustainability of these trends and their future levels. The study concluded that Nepal’s rising emigration, particularly to Gulf States and Malaysia, has significantly reshaped its economy, transitioning from agriculture to remittance dependency, with remittances now contributing the third-largest share of GDP globally. Despite this, slow implementation of the 2012 Foreign Employment Policy has prompted the Ministry of Labour and Employment to devise a five-year strategic action plan focusing on decentralizing migration management, improving remittance systems through innovative technologies, and ensuring social security for vulnerable groups. Additionally, addressing labor shortages post the 2015 earthquake and offering competitive wages to reduce labor outflow are critical. The study highlights the overlooked links between migration and development, emphasizing the need to optimize remittance utilization, human capital, and social capital to drive Nepal’s economic and social progress.

A Systematic Review on Current Research Trends on Student-Centered Pedagogies in English as a Foreign Language (EFL)
type: item
description: Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA is a research method that involves systematically collecting, evaluating, and synthesizing all relevant studies on a specific topic using pre-defined criteria. Following PRISMA guideline, this article examines the current trends and research focus of the researchers on student-centered teaching strategies in English Language Teaching (ELT) from 2020 to 2024. It investigates four main themes: active learning strategies, student engagement in EFL classrooms, participatory teaching and learning, and task-based teaching and learning (TBLT). The findings reveal that task-based teaching and learning as the most extensively researched theme, indicating a notable interest in its effectiveness for enhancing language proficiency among EFL learners. Similarly, there was relatively lesser researches on participatory teaching and learning method compared to TBLT in EFL contexts during the designated period. Furthermore, while active learning strategies and student engagement in EFL classrooms were acknowledged, they did not receive as much research focus as task-based approaches. This study contributes to discussions on effective teaching practices in EFL education by highlighting the distribution of research attention across different student-centered teaching themes. The findings offer valuable guidance for policymakers, educators, and researchers to develop teaching strategies prioritizing active learning and students’ engagement strategies, ultimately leading to improvements in language education and more fulfilling learning experiences for EFL learners.

Contraceptive Use among Reproductive Aged Women of Squatter Slum Areas in Surkhet Valley
type: item
description: This paper examines contraceptive use among reproductive aged women of squatter slum areas in Surkhet valley. Nepal has experienced a dramatic increase in contractive use. Fertility rate is a decline in Nepal. The main objective of the study was to examine the socio-demographic background of squatter slum women regarding contraceptive use and to find out the status of contraceptive use. The currently married women of reproductive age (15-49) were interviewed by applying systematic random sampling method without replacement. Sample size was 142 reproductive aged women. Despite intensive efforts from various sectors it is reducing in desirable level. Various studies suggest that fertility is found to be high especially in backwards communities. Squatter slum areas are one of the examples. An attempt is made in this study to find out the general features of these settlements mainly level of contraceptive use and its relation with some selected socio-economic variables. Definitely, environment condition of these settlements is found hazardous. The family planning program in Nepal has been considered a success in a setting without much socio-economic development. With the concerted effort of the government of Nepal and Non-governmental Organizations (INGOs), women are becoming aware of physical health. Contraception prevalence level is not found satisfactory. About half of the eligible couple out of total couples is yet to contraceptive use. Age of the user, age at marriage, child ever born, husband’s education, women’s education and working status of spouse are positively correlated with the contraceptive use.

Trend of Population Change in Nepal and its Adverse Effect on Diverse Aspects
type: item
description: This research paper aims to describe the trend of population change and its adverse effects on diverse aspects of individual, family, community and the nation. Secondary data have been used from the statistical reports of various census conducted in Nepal in this study. This study has focused on the trend of population change from the initial census 1911 to the last census year 2021 with its adverse effects on human being. Nepal’s population was under the 6 million in initial census year 1911. After during the 110-years period later, as per a latest statistical report 2021, the current population has crossed 29 million due to high birth and low death rate, poor use of contraceptives, illiteracy, unemployment, poverty, low status of women, traditional system of marriage, cultural and religious beliefs, increasing trend of immigration and regional or provincial difference which contributes to create environmental degradation, possibility of extinction, rise in unemployment, lack of education, high cost of living, conflict and wars, deterioration of culture, lower life expectancy and quality of life. The feeling of risk resulting from the large population size in Nepal is same as other developing countries. Looking at the current demographic situation as compared with limited resources in Nepal, it is suggested that the exceptional population influencing policies and programs should be formulated and implemented in every regions or residences to combat against adverse effect of overpopulation.

Policies and Provisions for Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder in Inclusive Education Context
type: item
description: This article delves into the policies and provisions designed to aid children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) within inclusive classroom environments. Drawing upon a qualitative context analysis through an examination of international declarations and Nepal's national policies, it scrutinizes the legal frameworks and educational guidelines addressing the educational requirements of children with ASD. Key international documents such as the Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC), Education for All (EFA), and the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (UN-CRPD) are analysed to discern their implications for inclusive education. Moreover, Nepal's national policies, including the National Education System Plan, National Policy and Action Plan Related to People with Disability, and the Inclusive Education Policy for Persons with Disabilities, are assessed to determine their alignment with global initiatives and effectiveness in promoting inclusive practices for children with ASD. The study emphasizes the pivotal role of these policies in shaping inclusive education environments, ensuring access to quality education, and fostering the rights of individuals with ASD to fully participate in society. Limited resources, inadequate support services, a shortage of trained teachers, and knowledge gaps among educators and stakeholders hinder the successful inclusion of students with ASD in mainstream classrooms Recommendations for policy implementation and future research directions are also deliberated to enhance support for children with ASD in inclusive classroom settings.

description: प्रस्तुत अध्ययनमा नेपाली भाषा शिक्षणका क्रममा पाठ्यक्रमको प्रयोग सन्दर्भमा शिक्षकहरूका दृष्टिकोणलाई केलाइएको छ । नेपाली भाषा कक्षामा पाठ्यक्रम प्रयोगको अवस्थालाई विश्लेषण गर्ने उद्देश्य यसमा राखिएको छ । गुणात्मक अध्ययन ढाँचाको अवलम्बन गरिएको यस अध्ययनमा आवश्यक तथ्याङ्क सङ्कलनका लागि कक्षाको अवलोकन र शिक्षकसँग खुला अन्तर्वार्ता लिइएको छ । यसरी सङ्कलित तथ्याङ्कको अभिलेखन, सारांश पहिचान, कोड निर्माण, कोडको वर्गीकरण तथा सामूहीकरण र नतिजा पहिचानको प्रक्रिया चरणबद्ध अपनाई विश्लेषण गरिएको छ । सङ्कलित तथ्याङ्कको विश्लेषण गर्दा नेपाली भाषा शिक्षकहरू पाठ्यक्रमको औचित्य र आवश्यकताबारे सैद्धान्तिक रूपमा जानकार छन् तर व्यवहारमा प्रयोग गरेका छैनन् । विद्यालयमा पाठ्यक्रम उपलब्ध भए तापनि तिनलाई प्रयोगमा ल्याइएको छैन । यसका लागि शिक्षकमा पेसागत इमान्दारिताको परिपालनाका साथै सामयिक रूपमा पाठ्यक्रम प्रबोधीकरणको आवश्यकता देखिएको छ । पाठ्यपुस्तकमा राखिएका विषयवस्तु र अभ्यास भाषा सिकाइका लागि पर्याप्त हुने गलत विश्वासका कारण पाठ्यक्रमको उपयोग नगरिएको निष्कर्ष प्राप्त भएको छ । यस अध्ययनले शिक्षकहरूलाई पाठ्यपुस्तकमा सीमित नभई पाठ्यक्रममा आधारित शिक्षण सिकाइतर्फ अभिप्रेरित गर्ने अपेक्षा राखिएको छ ।

बालविकास कक्षामा भाषा सिकाइका सन्दर्भमा शैक्षिक सामग्रीको उपयोग
type: item
description: प्रस्तुत लेख भाषा सिकाइका क्रममा बालविकास कक्षामा प्रयोग गरिने शैक्षिक सामग्री प्रयोगको अध्ययनमा केन्द्रित छ । यो सुर्खेत जिल्ला वीरेन्द्रनगर नगरपालिकाभित्रका निजी र सामुदायिक गरी छओटा विद्यालयमा सञ्चालित बालविकास कक्षामा प्रयोग गरिएका शैक्षिक सामग्रीको प्रयोग र यसमा भइरहेका समस्या र समाधानका उपायहरू प्रस्तुत गर्ने उद्देश्यमा आधारित छ । यसका लागि वीरेन्द्रनगर नगरपालिकाभित्रका छओटा विद्यालयहरू छनोट गरी उक्त विद्यालयका बालविकास कक्षामा अध्यापनरत छ जना शिक्षक र छ जना प्रधानाध्यापकसँग अन्तर्वार्ता र छलफल गरिएको छ । यस किसिमले प्राप्त तथ्याङ्कको विश्लेषणबाट बालबिकास कक्षामा श्रव्यदृश्य सामग्री, पोष्टर, कागतका शब्दपत्ती, अङ्कपत्ती लगायतका सामग्री प्रयोगमा ल्याइएको छ । शैक्षिक सामग्रीको उपलब्धता पर्याप्त मात्रामा भए तापनि प्रयोगको मात्रा कमजोर देखिन्छ । यसमा विद्यार्थी सङ्ख्या र प्रयोग दक्षताको अभावका कारण शैक्षिक सामग्रीको प्रयोग गर्न झन्झट मानेका छन् । शिक्षकहरू कक्षाकोठामा भाषा कक्षामा शैक्षिक सामग्री उपयोगको सैद्धान्तिक ज्ञान र व्यावहारिक सीपको प्रयोग पूर्ण रूपमा सफल देखिँदैनन् । बालविकास कक्षामा शैक्षिक सामग्रीको सङ्कलन, निर्माण र प्रयोग सम्बन्धमा उनीहरूलाई प्रोत्साहित गर्नुपर्ने देखिन्छ ।

दलियकरणको प्रभावमा शिक्षण पेशाः एक विश्लेषण
type: item
description: शिक्षण संस्था भित्र राजनीति दलका भातृ संघ संगठनका कारण शिक्षक वा प्राध्यापकहरू आपसमा विभाजित भएको अवस्थामा शिक्षण पेशा अमर्यादित बनेको छ । शिक्षक र शिक्षण पेशालाई हेयको दृष्टिले हेर्ने अवस्था आएको छ। शिक्षण पेशामा युवाको आकर्षण छैन । यो अवस्था सृजना हुनमा शिक्षण संस्था भित्र दलिय राजनीतिको भूमिका छलफल गर्ने हेतुले यो लेख तयार गरिएको छ। यसका लागि शिक्षण पेशामा संलग्न र शिक्षण पेशालाई नजिकबाट निआलेका व्यक्तिका लेखन कार्यको अध्ययन वा पुनराबलोकन गरिएको छ । साथै लेखक विगत पन्ध्र बर्षदेखि सुर्खे त बहुमुखि क्याम्पस र दश बर्षदेखि मध्य पश्चिम विश्व विद्यालयमा आंशिक प्राध्यापकको रूपमा कार्यरत हुदा प्रत्यक्ष अवलोकन गरेका घटना र सहभागी भएका गतिविधिलाई समेत अध्ययनको स्रोत बनाइएको छ । विश्वविद्यालय वा क्याम्पसमा विभिन्न दलहरूसँग सम्बन्धित प्राध्यापक संगठनहरू र विद्यार्थी युनियनहरू छन् । प्राध्यापन पेशामा संलग्न आंशिक प्राध्यापक र स्थायी प्राध्यापकले कुनै न कुनै प्राध्यापक संगठनको सदस्यता लिएकै पाइयो । शिक्षण पेशामा संलग्न प्राध्यापकहरूमा कुनै प्राध्यापक संगठनको सदस्यता नलिए वा उनिहरूको सांगठनिक गतिविधिमा भाग नलिए भविष्यमा आउने वृति विकासको अवसरबाट बञ्चित हुनुपर्ने हो कि भन्ने डर भएको पाइयो । व्यक्तिले नचाहँदा नचाहँदै पनि कुनै न कुनै संगठनमा आवद्ध हुनु पर्ने बाध्यताको अवस्था सृजना भएको तथ्य देखियो । सत्ता र शक्तिको नजिक हुने दलसँग आवद्ध संगठनको बढदो प्रभाव हेरेर अवसरका लागि प्राध्यापकहरूले आफ्नो आवद्धता फेरबदल गर्ने गरेको पनि पाइयो । यसरी शिक्षण संस्थामा भएको दलियकरणको अभ्यासले शिक्षण पेशामा संलग्न व्यक्तिमा मनोबैज्ञानिक असर परेको तथ्य अवलत्तकन गर्न सकिन्छ । शिक्षण पेशा दलियकरणको भुमरीमा परेर शिक्षाको गुणस्तरमा प्रत्यक्ष असर पारे पनि सार्वजनिक शिक्षा र शिक्षण संस्था भित्रको दलियकरणको अन्त्य चुनौतिपूर्ण भएको कुरामा सरोकारवाला स्वीकारोक्ती छ ।
