Short Profile

I am a Professor of Language and Communication at the Federal University of
Agriculture, Abeokuta, (FUNAAB) Nigeria I was the Deputy Vice-Chancellor
(Academic) at FUNAAB from January 2020 to January, 2022. I have over thirty-two
years' experience working in the Nigerian higher education space. I have over fifty
scholarly publications to my credit. At FUNAAB, I teach courses in communication
skills, literary appreciation and communication studies.
Prior to my appointment as the Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Academic), FUNAAB, I had
been the Dean, College of Agricultural Management and Rural Development. I was
the Head of the Department of Communication and General Studies from 2009 to
2013 and the Chairperson of the Federal University of Agriculture, Abeokuta, Staff
School. I was at one time the Chairperson of the Committee of Deans and Directors
and the Editor of FUNAAB Journal of Humanities, Social Sciences and Creative
Arts.
I am highly skilled in information and educational technologies and has
demonstrable experience in championing and pioneering the e-learning project at
FUNAAB. My research interests are Educational Technologies in Teaching and
Learning, Computer Assisted Teaching and Learning and Online Teaching
Facilitating.
I have partnered with national, regional and continental organizations and has
experience in multinational research, research funding and development
programmes. Bolanle Akeredolu-Ale has interest in the development of Higher
Education in Nigeria. My areas of focus include quality assurance, leadership,
management and eLearning in Nigerian higher education systems. Presently, I am
assessing the impact of the digital age on learning and teaching. Late 2019, my joint
proposal with other researchers won the Nigerian TETFUND National Research
Fund (NRF) Grant. The project is titled ‘Pedagogical Adaptive Model and Framework
of Blended Learning for Higher Education Institutions: Any Impact on Employability
in Nigeria?’ In 2020 also another joint proposal won the TETFUND National
Research Fund (NRF) Grant. The project is ongoing and titled ‘Facework for Mental
Health: A Pragma-Linguistic Study of Community/Medical Social Supports in Dealing
with Covid-19 and Other Life Stressors’.
I also had the opportunity of participating at the 2018 Facilitating Online Course
organized by the Centre for Educational Technology at University of Cape Town
and e/merge Africa. The Course has been of tremendous benefit to my e-
learning/digital learning teaching experience. And this has made the adoption of e-
learning at FUNAAB under my portfolio as the Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Academic)
during the COVID-19 pandemic, somewhat seamless.
My participation in capacity development activities has actually strengthened my
leadership skills. I had the opportunity of attending the DIES (German Dialogue in

2

Innovative Higher Educational Strategies) - International Deans’ intensive training
Course Africa in 2017/2018 organized by the German Academic Exchange Service
(DAAD), the German Rectors’ Conference (HRK), the Osnabrück University of
Applied Sciences in cooperation with the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation
(AvH). This Course had participants from close to 8 African countries. During the
various workshops organized in Germany, Ethiopia and Uganda, I was able to have
a firsthand information and experience on University administration and
management from the different participating Heads of Departments, Deans, Deputy
Vice-Chancellors and Directors at the Workshop. Some of these new ideas I have
been able to work on and where possible applied in my role as a university leader
and administrator. In particular, is the project management skill and tools (e.g.
financial management, strategic management, research management, curriculum
design, quality assurance) that participants were exposed to and the encouragement
to see university management and administration in terms of project management.
My experience in university system cuts across African continent, my participation in
the training course for Supervisors of Doctoral Candidates in African Universities at
Stellenbosch University, South Africa, actually made it possible to have firsthand
experience of Higher Education and Doctoral trainings across the continent. The
participants, numbered 174 Doctoral Supervisors from different parts of Africa,
shared their experiences and made suggestions on how to have uniform Doctoral
training in African Universities.
Though born in Ibadan on January 5, 1964, I hail from Odole Quarters in Ijebu-Itele,
Ijebu East LGA of Ogun State, Nigeria. I had my higher education at the University
of Ibadan, Ibadan, Nigeria, where I obtained a Bachelor’s Degree in 1984, and
Master’s Degree in 1987. I got a Postgraduate Diploma (PDG) in Journalism in 1989
from the Nigerian Institute of Journalism. And I had the opportunity, before
completing my PhD in 2000 from the University of Ibadan, to attend the University of
Birmingham in 1992-1993 for a Master’s Degree in Teaching English as a
Second/Foreign Language (TESL/TEFL) sponsored by the British Government
under the Overseas Development Authority (ODA) Award administered by the British
Council in Nigeria.
Apart from academics and higher education administration, I have a great passion
for grooming young women for the future and have worked corporately and
personally towards encouraging young girls to achieve their hidden potentials. I have
contributed immensely to radio and television programmes, civil meetings and
seminars focused on women empowerment, children protection and girl-child
education. In 2019, I had presented my thoughts in two publications titled ‘The
Importance of the Girl-Child Education to the Socio-Economic Development of
Egbaland’ and ‘Girl-Child Education: A Tool for Positive Social Change in Egbaland’,
at the 2019 Lisabi Festival, Abeokuta, Nigeria. And on 24 April, 2021, I shared my
thoughts again at the investiture and award ceremony of the Abeokuta Chapter of
the Society of Women Accountant of Nigeria, when I presented a paper titled ‘Global
Gender Imbalance: A Critical Review’.
I have served as an external examiner and assessor to numerous universities in
Nigeria and abroad. I was actively involved in the Communication Skills Project for
Universities of Agriculture and Technology sponsored by the British Council, that
culminated in the formation of the National Association of Teachers and

3

Researchers of English as a Second Language (NATRESL). Until recently, I was the
Chairperson of the Editorial Collective of the English Language Teaching Today
(ELTT), a journal of NATRESL. In addition, I am a member of the International
Association of World Englishes (IAWE), International Literacy Association (ILA), and
International Reading Association (IRA). I am presently one of the two University
Orators at FUNAAB.
