School of Education Holds Workshop on Reporting Research Findings for PhD Students
Kampala, August 30, 2024—
The School of Education, Department of Languages at Makerere University, recently organized a highly impactful workshop aimed at enhancing the research skills of PhD students. The workshop, titled “Moving from Raw Data to Reporting Findings in Educational Research,” attracted over 40 doctoral candidates who are currently navigating the challenging terrain of academic research.
The event was graced by a distinguished panel of senior researchers who brought a wealth of knowledge and experience to the discussion. The panel included Dr. Leah Sikoyo, Dr. Reymick Oketch, Dr. Nambi Rebecca, Dr. Badru Musisi, Dr. Nicholas Itaaga, and Dr. Michael Gallagher, a Senior Lecturer in Digital Education from the University of Edinburgh.
Theoretical Foundations in Research
A key point emphasized during the workshop was the importance of grounding research in a strong theoretical framework. The facilitators urged the PhD students to ensure that every piece of research draws from a relevant theory, which serves as a foundation for their study. “A theory is not just an academic requirement; it’s a lens through which you interpret your data and understand your findings,” said Dr. Leah Sikoyo, setting the tone for the day.
Navigating Research Methodologies
The workshop also delved deeply into the ongoing debate between quantitative and qualitative research methods. Dr. Sikoyo argued passionately that qualitative data collection is often more rigorous than its quantitative counterpart, as it requires a deep understanding of the context and the researcher’s ontological views must be clearly represented in the thesis. This approach ensures that the subjective nature of qualitative research is not lost, and that the findings truly reflect the nuanced realities of the study subjects.
On the other hand, Dr. Badru Musisi contributed to the discussion by distinguishing between mixed methods and multi-methods research. He explained that while mixed methods research combines qualitative and quantitative approaches in a single study, multi-methods research involves using multiple methods within the same research paradigm. “Understanding the distinction is crucial,” Dr. Musisi noted, “as it influences how you design your study and interpret your findings.”
Adding to the discussion, Dr. Reymick Oketch emphasized the critical role of statistical methods in data analysis, particularly within quantitative research. He highlighted that statistical tools enable researchers to uncover patterns, test hypotheses, and draw conclusions with a high degree of precision. “Incorporating statistical methods into your research allows for a more rigorous analysis of data, providing results that are both reliable and valid,” Dr. Oketch explained. He encouraged students to develop a strong foundation in statistical analysis to enhance the quality of their research outcomes.
Reporting Research Findings
One of the workshop’s highlights was a session led by Dr. Michael Gallagher, who provided practical guidance on presenting research findings effectively. Dr. Gallagher emphasized that research findings should directly answer the research questions posed at the outset of the study. He advised students to draw clear connections between their findings and the themes that emerged during the data analysis, ensuring that their conclusions are firmly grounded in both their data and the existing literature.
Dr. Gallagher also underscored the importance of transparency in reporting research methods. “Be sure to mention all the methods you used to collect data,” he advised. “This not only adds credibility to your research but also provides a roadmap for others who may wish to replicate your study.” He further encouraged PhD students to be reflexive in their analysis, emphasizing the importance of critically examining their own assumptions, biases, and perspectives throughout the research process. Reflexivity in research analysis involves being aware of how the researcher’s identity, experiences, and positioning might influence the interpretation of data and the outcomes of the study.
In a practical session, Dr. Nambi Rebecca introduced the students to a presentation model she code-named PEE—Point, Evidence, and Explanation. She explained that this model helps in structuring arguments logically and effectively. “Start with your Point, back it up with Evidence from your research, and then provide an Explanation that ties it all together,” Dr. Nambi advised. This approach, she noted, is especially useful when presenting complex research findings, as it ensures clarity and coherence in the delivery.
A Valuable Learning Experience
The workshop was lauded by participants for its practical focus and the opportunity to learn directly from seasoned researchers. “It was an eye-opening experience,” said one of the PhD students in attendance. “The insights shared will definitely shape how I approach my own research, especially in terms of grounding my work in theory and being more reflective in my analysis.”
As the event concluded, there was a palpable sense of empowerment among the PhD students, who left with a clearer understanding of how to navigate the complex journey from raw data to meaningful, well-reported research findings. The Department of Languages plans to continue offering such workshops to support the academic growth of its doctoral candidates, ensuring they are well-equipped to contribute to the field of educational research.
The School of Education’s commitment to fostering academic excellence and research rigor is evident through such initiatives. As the doctoral candidates move forward in their research endeavors, the lessons learned from this workshop will undoubtedly serve as a valuable guide, helping them to produce high-quality research that not only advances their academic careers but also contributes to the broader field of education.

Real life project: Makerere University Vice Chancellor hands over constructed Wall Fence to Makerere College School
By Ritah Namisango and Harriet Musinguzi
On 12th November 2025, Makerere University officially handed over a newly constructed wall fence to Makerere College School. The real-life project was executed by technical students pursuing higher diploma courses in Civil Engineering and Architecture under the Uganda Vocational and Technical Assessment Board (UVTAB). The students are enrolled at the Centre for Lifelong Learning and Teaching, which operates within the College of Education and External Studies (CEES) at Makerere University.
The Centre for Lifelong Learning, in partnership with UVTAB, is involved in implementing real life projects within the communities-a practical approach that ensures that students identify problems within the community, hold collaborative discussions, and come up with projects to solve the problems.
The handover ceremony of the newly constructed Wall Fence was witnessed by key stakeholders that included officials from UVTAB, the College of Education and External Studies (CEES), the College of Engineering, Design, Art and Technology (CEDAT), the leadership of Makerere College School, UVTAB Deputy Executive Secretary and the technical students pursuing the higher diploma in Architecture and Civil Engineering.
The Vice Chancellor of Makerere University, Prof. Barnabas Nawangwe, represented by the Principal of the College of Education and External Studies, Prof. Anthony M. Mugagga, expressed heartfelt gratitude to Dr. Martin Muyingo, Head Teacher of Makerere College School, for providing a valuable learning space to students under the lifelong learning and teaching program. He acknowledged Prof. Dorothy Okello-Chairperson of the Uganda Vocational and Technical Assessment Board (UVTAB), Prof. Moses Musinguzi-Principal of CEDAT, course instructors, and students for their commendable contributions. He noted that the newly constructed wall stands as a testament to the power of lifelong learning and practical teaching.
The Vice Chancellor commended the management and staff of the College of Education and External Studies (CEES) for implementing programmes through the Centre of Lifelong learning, which are aligned to the Makerere University’s Strategic Plan. He observed that the partnership with UVTAB increases the number of students accessing quality education services, enhances lifelong learning, promotes practical education, and contributes to community transformation.
Congratulating the technical students upon this milestone, and in solidarity, the Vice Chancellor wrote: “I am an architect and courses in my profession go deep to my heart. Congratulations to the students, the engineers, and course instructors.”
Prof. Nawangwe emphasized the importance of architecture-related courses and praised Makerere’s longstanding commitment to student-centered learning, innovation, and thought leadership principles that have guided the university for over two decades. He highlighted that Makerere’s strategic direction aligns with Uganda’s National Development Plan IV and Vision 2040, which advocates for inclusive, equitable, and lifelong education. This vision, he said, reflects the aspirations of His Excellency President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni and the Government of Uganda’s education agenda.
He explained that the Centre for Lifelong Learning (CLL) at CEES, serves as a bridge between the university and the community. It offers opportunities to Ugandan youth and individuals who lack the financial means or academic qualifications to access Makerere’s mainstream programs, to join UVTAB technical education programmes, with instructors at Makerere University Centre for Lifelong Learning. Students enrolled in the program typically come from A-level backgrounds or hold certificates from technical institutions.
He highlighted that long before the Government of Uganda, through the Ministry of Education and Sports, restructured the secondary school curriculum to embrace competence-based teaching and learning, Makerere University had already been championing student-centered education. For over two decades, the university has promoted innovation, experiential learning, and thought leadership.
Ms. Jalia Nassaza, the Acting Deputy Executive Secretary of the Uganda Vocational and Technical Assessment Board (UVTAB), emphasized the importance of real-life projects within the Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) curriculum. She explained that these projects enable students to identify community challenges, engage in collaborative discussions, and develop practical solutions ultimately shaping them into holistic professionals. Through this approach, learners gain essential skills in planning, teamwork, and applying theoretical knowledge to real-world scenarios. Ms. Nassaza emphasized the need for an education system in Uganda that equips students to solve local problems and improve their surroundings. “We want to make our education realistic by translating knowledge into solving problems,” she affirmed.
The Principal of the College of Engineering, Design, Art and Technology, Prof. Moses Musinguzi while congratulating the students upon the completed wall fence structure and other projects, noted that as professionals, scientists get a lot of public criticism because they are the core of providing solutions to societal problems. He said the commissioning of the fence was testimony that the university in partnership with UVTAB, was teaching students ways of solving problems around them. He said that as a college, CEDAT provides access to the required infrastructure in the labs, workshops, and studios, as well as technicians who support the teaching.
Prof. Musinguzi said Makerere University was considering a revision of the assessment, making continuous assessment total to 60%, while classwork is rated at 40%. He also mentioned the CEDAT model, whereby the university was considering utilizing students in technical subjects to support the Estates and Works Department in infrastructural maintenance and service works instead of hiring externally, and that students on both Diploma and Degree programs would be engaged. ‘We need to see scientists directly engaged in the development of the country,’ he emphasized.
Speaking on behalf of the instructors, Mr. Barnabas Mabonga highlighted some of the students’ requirements that included the need for basic tools, providing opportunities for their academic progression to degree programs, and strengthening the safety measures. Some of the actual projects that the AVTAB technical students under CEES and CEDAT have worked on at Makerere College School include: a yard constructed at the boys’ hostel, the wall fence, and a drainage system. He said 173 students out of whom 28 are girls, were enrolled in the Civil Engineering and Architecture higher diploma program. He informed the Vice Chancellor and other guests present that the students in the real-life learning and teaching programs were excelling in performance, with a pass rate of 99%.
Dr. Oscar Mugula, Coordinator of the Centre for Lifelong Learning, emphasized the value of community engagement in their academic programs. He noted that the partnership with Makerere College School began two years ago, when students from the center undertook repair works on the school’s infrastructure. The collaboration has proven mutually beneficial, with the beneficiary school experiencing reduced development costs, while students, particularly those studying technical drawing, gained hands-on experience through the perimeter wall project, which contributed to their coursework and project assessments for the year.
In partnership with UVTAB, the Centre for Lifelong Learning offers diploma courses in Civil Engineering, Architecture, and Electrical Engineering. The students pursuing these courses are examined and accredited by UVTAB. Students benefit from experiential learning at CEDAT, where they are encouraged to innovate using affordable, locally sourced materials. They are also placed in real-world workstations and garages to observe best practices and avoid unethical conduct. Graduates of the program either join the workforce or continue their academic journey at the university.
The Center for Lifelong Learning at CEES is charged with the duty to take the university to the community, providing opportunities to Uganda’s youth and persons interested in technical education, who may not have the requisite funds or grades to join the university’s degree programmes. The students on the program are either directly from A-level or other technical institutions.

On 5th November 2025, the Principal of the College of Education and External Studies, Professor Anthony Muwagga Mugagga, hosted an inception meeting to discuss the modalities of setting up a daycare facility anchored within the Early Childhood Care Education strategy and the Competence Based Education trends.
Early Childhood Care and Development is the foundation of the education sector. Therefore, initiatives such as the daycare facility, are testimony to Makerere University’s commitment to the implementation of programmes aimed at strengthening early childhood care education. The facility will also serve as a demonstration centre for students and staff engaged in Early Childhood Care Education programmes.
The daycare facility to be hosted at the College of Education and External Studies will be enriched by best practices from Uganda, Norway and Ethiopia
The inception meeting brought onboard Early Childhood Care Education specialists from both the College of Education and External Studies and the Partnership for Change in Norway, staff from Makerere University Gender Mainstreaming Directorate, and the Office of the Dean of Students.
The Partnership for Change is a Norwegian Organization that supports aspiring countries to develop a thriving Early Childhood Care and Education (ECCE) sector and women’s economic empowerment in several countries. The delegates from Partnership for Change in Norway included: Oscar Haugejorden, Birikit Terefe, and Nasanet Hailemariam.
Welcoming the delegation from Norway and the respective internal stakeholders, the Principal expressed the readiness of the College of Education and External Studies (CEES) to host the daycare facility that will be utilized by both staff and students.
Professor Mugagga flanked by Dr. Peter Ssenkusu, both specialists in early childhood care education, highlighted that the College conducts a Bachelor’s degree, Masters’ degree, and PhD in early childhood care education and development. The CEES leadership reported that there is an increasing demand for early childhood care education programmes at Makerere University.
“Whereas Makerere University through the College of Education and External Studies had expected applicants from Diploma Holders, the realities proved that students who had completed the Advanced level of education (Senior Six) were interested in the academic programmes, and consequently applied,” said Professor Mugagga. He disclosed that the first advert to the (Bachelor of Early Childhood Development) attracted 500 applicants from Advanced level, Makerere University could only admit 110. He stated that the second advert, attracted 1,000 applicants, but they could take on, only 120.
Commenting on the gender (female to male) enrollment into Early Childhood Care Education (ECCE) at Makerere University, he said: “I am delighted to note that this year, Makerere University admitted 30 male students into the ECCE academic programme. This is an interesting trend that the boy child is also joining the ECCE programmes, that initially had attracted mostly female students.”
Partnership for Change underscores working with local partners and experts
Appreciating the warm reception at the College of Education and External Studies, the delegation expressed readiness to partner with Makerere University to contribute to the advancement of Early Childhood Education in Uganda. “Through this inception meeting at the College of Education and External Studies, history is being made. Makerere University and the Partnership for Change will contribute to strengthening of the early childhood care education sector in Uganda and beyond.”
The Head of the Delegation, Oscar Haugejorden, underscored the value of partnerships at all levels of their work and operation. “Partnerships are very important to us. We do not work alone. We work with local partners,” emphasized Oscar Haugejorden, the Managing Director, Partnership for Change.
In pursuit of this partnership, the delegation expressed readiness to work with the leadership at Makerere University-the Vice Chancellor, Deputy Vice Chancellors, Dean of Students, Gender Mainstreaming Directorate, the College of Education and External Studies, and the government of Uganda through the Ministry of Gender, Labour and Social Development.
The delegation committed to following standards and regulations that govern daycare centres and working with nationals who are experts in the different fields/disciplines such as certified local engineers.
The discussion revealed that the success of the Partnership for Change Early Childhood Care Education programmes is built on experience, trust, stakeholder engagements, involvement of the local partners and experts, and a great deal of advocacy.
The daycare facility to be hosted at the College of Education and External Studies will be enriched by best practices from Uganda, Norway and Ethiopia.
Success stories of ECCE in Ethiopia
In Ethiopia, The Partnership for Change, promotes social and economic development, with a focus on childcare and healthcare.
The delegation informed the Makerere University officials about the success of the ECCE programme built on partnerships with the government, schools, stakeholder engagements and involvement of citizens in Ethiopia. “Through partnerships and advocacy, Early Childhood Care Education has been institutionalized in Ethiopia. In addition, the government established 750 daycare centres.”
According to the Partnership for Change team, the government and citizens of Ethiopia, understood and appreciated the cardinal duty to nurture and care for the young ones, as parents joined the workforce. “Early childhood care education, and daycare centres, contributed to the economic transformation of Ethiopia. Parents could concentrate on their work or service to the nation without worrying about their babies or children. Parents entrusted their babies/children to the professional teams in parenting and early childhood care education, who are managing the daycare facilities.”
Gender Mainstreaming Directorate inspired by positive attitude towards ECCE
Dr. Euzobia Mugisha Baine, the Chief of Gender Mainstreaming at Makerere University, articulated that prioritization of early childhood care education, and its essential components such as daycare centres, would significantly contribute to the transformation of the education sector.
Providing the Ugandan context, Dr. Mugisha Baine, noted that for decades, early childhood care education, had been left to the private sector. Reflecting on the last five years, she observed that the government, universities and a number of stakeholders, have developed keen interest in the early childhood care education field including its operationalization, management, and its delivery. Dr. Mugisha Baine, is optimistic that with the change in attitude, early childhood care education will continue to grow, evolve and impact the learners, teachers and providers. She reiterated the need for Universities to have fully fledged daycare facilities. She expressed her readiness to learn new knowledge and skills as the daycare facility is rolled out at the College of Education and External Studies.
Office of the Dean of Students commends the timely intervention
The Dean of Students-Dr. Winifred Kabumbuli, represented by the Warden of Mary Stuart Hall, Ms. Norah Nalubowa, commended the ongoing efforts to refurbish and remodel a daycare facility at the College of Education and External Studies.
Ms. Nalubowa notified the meeting that during the examination period, some students who come with their babies and/or children, have been experiencing challenges, because they could not enter with them in the examination venues.
Drawing from the aforementioned experiences, Ms. Nalubowa explained that the daycare facility is a timely intervention, that will enable such students, to entrust their babies and/or children to the professional team managing the facility.
Way Forward
The proceedings of the inception meeting at the College of Education and External Studies were a precursor to other stakeholder engagements on integration of early childhood care education facilities into the education sector. The team is scheduled to meet officials in the Ministry of Gender, Labour and Social Development in Uganda.
