| Title | Jelalokjen in flux: pitfalls and prospects of contextualising teacher training programmes in the Marshall Islands | Author | Kupferman, David | Subject | Teachers|Training of Education|Marshall Islands Educators | Abstract | The concept of education in the Marshall Islands is constantly being redefined according to the cultural, social and political forces acting upon it. A variety of hurdles exists to codifying a socially relevant and contextualised approach to training teachers in the country. It is incumbent upon teacher trainers to develop valid approaches to contextualizing education working towards the creation of a qualified pool of professional Marshallese educators and the adoption of realistic and appropriate education standards. | Volume/Year | Directions: Journal of Educational Studies vol.26, no.1, 2004 | Collation | 42-54; | Notes | • | | Filesize | 37687 bytes | File Format | PDF | Number of pages | 13 |
