KEY TO YOUR REFLECTIONS
The little space one occupies in this life is the mind of the few that know him. It is they that know when he lives and when he dies. In my own case, there are those who do not just know me but have worked to make my life worth living, even to the point of making this my first book a reality.
GREAT TRUTHS ABOUT LIFE
The world is too large to be my world. But I have a world that exists in the world-’the little place where my reality finds a space to search for meaning’. It is from this my little space and world that this work germinated, though nurtured and nourished by the conducive atmosphere provided by some cherished persons that make it up.
GOD AND RELIGION IN THE 21st CENTURY
Upon my personal research and enquiries, I noticed that our youths do not realize where God really plays any important role in their lives amid their struggles to succeed in life. This is an error. This kind of error can easily occur because God is not physical. Not only in Africa, even in Europe…
Looking for answers, Pope Francis, the leader of the Roman Catholic Church, agrees that “the modern man surely has a different way of looking at life in general, God and religion in particular”. I know that modern changes in many aspects of life may have contributed to this.
PROMOTING STEAM EDUCATION THROUGH RESEARCH AND INNOVATION IN THE DIGITAL AGE
The world is large and life itself is complex. So, education (Rufai,2014), as an effective means of developing the full capacities and potentials of the human resource”, cannot achieve its objective if teachers continue to teach students with a unidirectional curriculum like STEM.

This is why STEAM education has become necessary for our students and comes to us through research as timely educational innovation. Evidently, STEAM is more comprehensive than STEM.
THE PLACE OF TEACHING IN THE SOCIETY
In a short page dedicated to Teachers, a question was posited: who is a teacher? Immediately many descriptions and qualifications followed as follows; “some say a good man or woman, fun loving, passionate and very curious. Another group says a rock star and game changer anywhere anytime. Others say awesome and goofy. And for many other folk, an artist and an engaging magician etc” (Alozie, 2015). The writer ended up by saying that teacher are world builders, which directly are world builders, which directly catches a glimpse of the link between teaching and the society…
EDU-TECH AND THE FLIPPED CLASSROOM IN AFRICA; A GREAT POSSIBILITY AND OPPORTUNITY.
Contrary to a vast array of opinions which tend to say that Edutech may not be able to function well in Africa, this work has come to uncover many reasons why Ed-tech is not only a possibility but even a great opportunity for Africa and the world. According to Eze (2018), “Educational Technology is an eclectic or integrated discipline which provides a common ground for knowledge and ideas from other fields such as: Psychology, Sociology, Engineering, Communication and Cybernetics, Graphic Arts, Economics, Management, Philosophy and others”.
