Through a comprehensive exploration of concepts such as Jom (hard work, pride, dignity), Kersa (decency), Fule (self-respect), Mun (endurance), Teranga (hospitality), Kal (kinship), and Suture (Protection), the book uncovers the ways in which these values are utilized, perceived, and understood within various communities. By employing a critical auto-ethnography lens, the author aims to propose that these concepts can serve as powerful tools to counterbalance the predominantly Western knowledge to which schoolchildren are often exposed. This connection to Bhabas concept of the \"Third Space\" emerges as a transformative framework, fostering a hybrid system that accommodates both educational systems, ultimately leading to more relevant and impactful education. This insightful study offers valuable insights into the positive impacts of traditional cultural values on education in Senegal, making it a must-read for scholars, researchers, and practitioners in the fields of culturally relevant education, African education, post-colonial education, and international education.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 520g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 229 x 152 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781032575391\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MaguetteDiame","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44922230145274,"sku":"9781032575391","price":147.56,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1703268908106_book.jpg?v=1703409843","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/traditional-values-and-local-community-in-the-formal-educational-system-in-senegal-relevance-need-and-barriers-to-the-integration-of-local-knowledge-9781032575391","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
