- W2183705874 abstract "Violations of basic individual freedom and rights and authoritarianism have remained familiar traits of majority of governments in Africa; and Kenya is not an exception. Educational systems in this regard can be effective in inculcating and fostering a culture of awareness of rights and responsibilities among populace. However, the organizational mode of the current education system in Kenya is lacking in promoting tolerance and democratic values. This paper examines the school assembly as a structure within the education system which inhibits creativity and responsibility thus posing a major challenge to quality. The assembly in this context is portrayed as authoritarian in nature. It operates on the premise that the best way to educate the youth is to reduce them to the level of docility. This inculcates fear in students and rewards blind obedience to authority. By making learning passive and unquestioning, the assembly produces passive and unquestioning citizens. The paper therefore demonstrates how the present school assembly is an obstacle to cultivation and promotion of democracy and human rights in Kenyan schools. An analysis of how the assembly is used to impose military type of discipline to learners is made to substantiate this view. Underlying this analysis is the suggestion that there is need to carry out a reform aimed at restructuring the assembly and using it as a tool for inculcating in learners respect for and protection of human rights and freedom and also a sense of responsibility. In this way, it is believed that the assembly will be making an important contribution in raising the quality of education." @default.
