This unique empirical study focuses on the different quality dimensions of the Madrasa education system in Kerala, southwestern India. Madrasa education is one of the largest networks of non-governmental organisations (NGOs) in the world. Despite originating several centuries ago in a vastly different social and cultural context, it continues to address the educational needs of a large section of the Muslim population in India. Although the Madrasa system has seen many significant developments over time, academia has not paid much attention to its functions, strengths and contributions. This study fills this lacuna, and is grounded in detailed empirical investigation based on ethnographic surveys and interviews with various stakeholders from the field comprising students, teachers, parents, management committees, Madrasa boards and educationists. It critically examines the existing Madrasa education system in terms of different quality dimensions, including curriculum planning and designing, curriculum transaction, assessment and evaluation, institutional management and infra structure. While appreciating the contributions of Madrasas in promoting education among the Muslim minority of India, the book also identifies their problems and suggests creative modalities. A timely contribution to a subject with great international appeal, it will be of great interest to policy planners, researchers, educators, students and scholars of formal and informal education, minority studies, political Islam, Middle East and Asian studies, sociology, history, and contemporary studies.

This book evaluates Bangladesh’s impressive economic and social progress, more often referred to as a ‘development surprise’. In doing so, the book examines the gap in existing explanations of Bangladesh’s development and then offers an empirically informed analysis of a range of distinctive factors, policies, and actions that have individually and collectively contributed to the progress of Bangladesh. In an inclusive way, the book covers the developmental role, relation, and impact of poverty reduction, access to finance, progress in education and social empowerment, reduction in the climatic vulnerability, and evolving sectoral growth activities in the agriculture, garments, and light industries. It also takes into account the important role of the government and NGOs in the development process, identifies bottlenecks and challenges to Bangladesh’s future development path and suggests measures to overcome them. By providing an inclusive narrative to theorize Bangladesh’s development, which is still missing in the public discourse, this book posits that Bangladesh per se can offer a development model to other developing countries.

Seminar paper from the year 2013 in the subject Guidebooks - School, Education, Pedagogy, grade: 72%, University of Manchester (University of Manchester/ Department of Education), course: Master in Educational Leadership and school Improvement, language: English, abstract: The genesis of education in the Mosques dates back to the times of the Islamic prophet Mohammad. It was the centre for knowledge and solution for people’s problem in life. Over the years religious institutes for education started operating from inside these mosques and were named Madrasa. These Islamic educational institutes play a crucial role for the people of the Muslim community. Madrasas are now considered to be supplementary schools for this specific community. Children are sent to Madrasas from an early age to learn the religious scripture and identify their roots and culture. Changing times have focussed on the real applicability of Madrasa education. Insider elaboration of the facts of Madrasa education is undoubtedly questionable. Out dated pedagogy and corporal punishment for behaviour modification is a daily routine which is seriously harming the children. These children face an uncertain future and are deprived from quality education. Children from poor family attending madrasas for free education end with very little knowledge about secular subjects.
