MAJOR STUDY FOR THE WORLD BANK AND COMMONWEALTH OF LEARNING, MAY 2000

Undertook a major study of international significance for the World Bank HQ, Washington, D.C and Commonwealth of Learning, Vancouver, Canada on ‘Using open and distance education methods in primary teacher education in Nigeria.’ The government of Nigeria will launch its Universal Basic Education scheme in 2000 and wishes to seek alternative routes to mass producing about 916,000 primary school teachers needed as full complement to the successful execution of the scheme. A Report (170pp), which contained suggestions and models for teacher education using open and distance education methods, was written after a four-month study and submitted to the World Bank, Commonwealth of Learning, and the Government of Nigeria.

GUEST EDITORSHIP OF FID REVIEW

INITIATING AND LAUNCHING AN ELECTRONIC JOURNAL

The need to establish a specialised journal dedicated to instructional science and technology has arisen from the wealth of experience I have accumulated from being a Listowner and moderator of three electronic discussion groups: ONCAMPUS-L, RESODLAA-L, & NIAJEDUC-L.. In addition I successfully ran two electronic conferences as follows: From October 1993 to January 1994 an Oncampus electronic conference was held at the University of Southern Queensland to promote campus-wide dialogue on instructional design and its contribution to the development of distance education study materials. A second conference was held on RESODLAA-L on the topic 'Instructional Design in Distance and Open Education' from 2 September  - 7 October 1994. As a result I was invited with one of my colleagues to initiate and launch an electronic journal in instructional science and technology as a forum to disseminate, free from the usual delays and complicated review processes associated with print journals. The journal has been launched and can be accessed via World Wide Web site at URL : http//cwis.usq.edu.au/electpub/e-jist/  The maiden issue was published in October 1995.

DEVELOPING A RESEARCH CULTURE AND RAISING THE RESEARCH PROFILE AT THE USQ DISTANCE EDUCATION CENTRE

I accepted the position of Head, Research and Evaluation Unit at the University of Southern Queensland Distance Education Centre in 1991 as a challenge at a time when there was no focus on research and no such unit in existence. Within four years I was successful in developing a strong research culture at the Centre and established a research focus on instructional science and technology. This has now formed the central core of instructional design for distance education materials. A testimony to this excellent achievement is listing of our research in Distance Education and Open Learning and Instructional Science and Technology under projects & outcomes of national and international significance in the recent University of Southern Queensland’s Research profile.

INVITATION TO SPEAK AT THE AFRICAN SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY EDUCATION CONFERENCE.

A continental conference funded by Rokefeller Foundation, to review the practice, policy and priorities of science and technology education in Africa held in December 1995 at Durban South Africa. I was invited among 14 distinguished scientists and science educators who contributed papers focusing on the debate of the conference. I presented a major paper on “The knowledge base for learning in science and technology education”.
