This book has actionable strategies on how to succeed without college education! We all know the adage that says that education is the key to better life. While this definition does not go on to tell us whatever form of education unlocks the better life, society has somehow wired us to believe that college/university education is the key to better life. So in essence, we subtly believe that without college/university education, we are destined for mediocrity in life. Do you plan to be a successful entrepreneur one day? Or do you just want to earn sufficient money to buy your own house and give your children good education? Whatever your goals, hopes, and dreams are, you do need to study for it and for that, you need to complete college. Did that shatter your dreams? Can you not afford to attend college for some reason? If yes, then the good news is that success is not just dependent on receiving college education. There are hundreds of well-established and renowned entrepreneurs who did not go to college, or dropped out of college before they could graduate. The fact that they could no longer get college education with their peers did not restrict them from pursuing their dreams. They still went after it and turned them into reality. If they can do it, so can you. If you are determined to accomplish your goals and are courageous enough to beat all odds, you can become successful without going to college. Not being 'formally' educated enough does not mean that you don't have what it takes to fulfill your lifelong objectives, dreams and desires. You need knowledge, courage, strength, perseverance, determination, commitment, and confidence to become successful and these things are learnt and developed from different experiences in life and not just college. If you are dedicated to your goals and want to actualize them, but cannot attend college, then you have landed at the right place. This book will provide you with all the information and support you need for achieving your goals.

Schools and Informal Learning in a Knowledge-Based World
<p>This book has two purposes: To open up the debate on the role of informal education in schooling systems and to suggest the kind of school organizational environment that can best facilitate the recognition of informal learning. Successive chapters explore what is often seen as a duality between informal and formal learning. This duality is particularly so because education systems expend so much time and effort in certifying formal knowledge often expressed in school subjects reflecting academic disciplines.Recognizing the contribution informal learning can make to young people's understanding and development does not negate the importance of valued social knowledge: That complements it. Students come to school with knowledge learnt from their families, peers, the community and both traditional and social media. They should not have to "unlearn" this in order to enter the world of formal learning. Rather, students' different learning "worlds" should be integrated so that each informs the other. In a knowledge-based society, all learning needs to be valued.</p><p>Some contributors to this book reflect on how new educational systems could be created in a move away from top-down authoritarian and bureaucratic management. Such open systems are seen to be more welcoming in acknowledging the importance of informal learning. Others provide practical examples of how informal learning is currently recognized. Some attention is also paid to the evaluation of informal learning. A key objective of the work presented here is to stimulate debate about the role of informal learning in knowledge-based societies and to stimulate thinking about the kind of reforms needed to create more open and more democratic school learning environments. </p>

Community Participation with Schools in Developing Countries: Towards Equitable and Inclusive Basic
<p>The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) (2016-2030) set by the United Nations in 2015 restated the importance of universal primary education for all, and specifically discuss quality, equity, and inclusion in basic education. To achieve this, the role of community has been emphasized and participation has become a "buzzword" in international development over the past several decades. Despite the growing attention to community participation in school management, previous literature has shown mixed results in terms of its actual practice and its impacts on quality, equity, and inclusion in education. </p><p>This book deepens the contextual understanding of community in developing countries and its involvement in schools in general, and its impact on quality, equity, and inclusion of school education in particular. By presenting various case studies in Asia, Africa, Latin America, and a post-conflict state in Europe, the book analyses commonalities and differences in the ways communities are involved and cast their impacts and challenges. The book contributes knowledge on the ways in which community involvement could work in developing countries, the detailed processes and factors that make community participation work in different dimensions, and remaining challenges that scholars and practitioners still need to be concerned and mindful in the field.</p><p>This book will appeal to both researchers and practitioners who are concerned about the community participation approach for the SDGs. </p>
