...Chapter 1 Introduction Education is “an act of taking someone out of ignorance by means of teaching”, as defined by the World Book Encyclopedia. It is considered as social institution. It includes not only the effects of schooling, but also the more pervasive effects of child rearing practices gained from family training, social exposure and other means of media that a learner experienced and accumulated as part of his maturity. It is one of the purposes of education to prepare the youth for their future places in the society and prepare them to combat the real world. Schooling is only part of education. It is the place where a person gains proper training that his family cannot provide. Thus, in a school setting, education will not be considered a full one if there is no teacher.

It would also allow students to examine processes they use for career selection. The literature review has provided recommended models in career choices. The review of the literature showed that three areas of a studentfs life affect the career choices they make: environment, opportunity, and personality. All three played varying roles in career outcomes. This study attempted to identify to what extent these factors played a role in career choice...

Mrs. Olufunmilayo Ransome-Kuti later joined by some educated women of like minds, fought daringly and relentlessly for these three .pivotal goals of women emergency and relevance in the socio-political...

Management control is a process of assuming that resources are obtained and used effectively and efficiently in the accomplishment of the organization’s objectives. It is a fundamental necessity for the success of a business and hence from time to time the current performance of the various operations is compared to a predetermined standard or ideal performance and in case of variance remedial measures are adopted to confirm operations to set plan or policy. Some of the features of MANAGEMENT CONTROL SYSTEM are as follows: ➢ Total System: MANAGEMENT CONTROL SYSTEM is an overall process of the enterprise which aims to fit together the separate plans for various segments as to assure that each harmonizes with the others and that the aggregate effect of all of them on the whole enterprise is satisfactory. ➢ Monetary Standard: MANAGEMENT CONTROL SYSTEM is built around a financial structure and all the resources and outputs are expressed in terms of money. The results of each responsibility centre in respect to production and resources are expressed in terms of a common denominator of money. ➢ Definite pattern: It follows a definite pattern and time table. The whole operational activity is regular and rhythmic. It is a continuous process even if the plans are changed in the light of experience or technology. ➢ Coordinated System: It is a fully coordinated and integrated system. ...
