During the conference which NAQAAE has organized, Dr. Badrawi has given a lecture on April 22nd, 2018, about the history of the establishment of this authority, as it was originally his idea to have this authority established in Egypt. During the lecture, Dr. Badrawi has demonstrated the law of establishment of the NAQAAE, and the challenges that have restricted the authority from reaching its full operation power which were set by the philosophy behind its establishment. Dr. Badrawi has also demonstrated the perspective of the education in Egypt by the year 2030 through his well-planned strategy through which he guided the educational experts who have attended his lecture. Dr. Badrawi has also spoken out his concerns related to the tardiness of the education sector in Egypt and has clarified that the change of governments and ministers of education is the main cause of this loss, as each minister tends to reinvent the wheel disregarding all the previous accumulative experience gained from the past, as this definitely does not permit any stable strategy in the development of the sector.
Dr. Badrawi has also clarified that the human resource is the vital factor in the development of the Educational Sector in Egypt regardless of the availability of the resources of knowledge; nevertheless, the role of the teacher is to be altered from a lecturer leading teacher-centered-classes, to a facilitator of knowledge delivery systems to build the integrative personality and set its full capabilities free; the personality which is capable of accepting the other person’s point of view, and is capable of accepting differences, and is also capable of learning for life. This is the personality that is aimed to be built, the personality which is proud to be Egyptian, and proud to be part of the history of this country. The personality which has the positive perspective towards its civilization which is able to create its new successful future. It is the personality which is fit to keep up and morally compete with others, and fully understands the requirements of the 21st century.
The lecture was so inspirational that the attendees of the lecture have gathered around Dr. Badrawi to take pictures with him, as they have found that the lecture gets in touch with reality and has given them hope in a prosperous future.
