Strategies Used by Students in Correctional Facility for Accessing Educational Resources: The Case of a Namibian Correctional Facility
Résumé
The purpose of the study was to examine strategies used by students at a Namibian Correctional Facility in accessing educational resources while studying in prison. The paper's central claim is that, despite their severe living conditions, inmates are motivated to further their studies. This research was carried out in a correctional facility in Namibia. This study was qualitative in nature, using interviews as a means of data collecting while adhering to an interpretive paradigm. A skilled transcriber transcribed the audio-recorded interviews verbatim, and the author was provided with the transcripts for interpretation. The analysis was conducted thematically. With regard to correctional facility services, Namibia's legal system saw significant transformations as it moved from an approach centred on punishment and isolation to one that emphasises rehabilitation and community reintegration.
