Produktbeschreibung
Education reconstruction in a conflict and post-conflict environment is a daunting task that many stakeholders have failed to comprehend. This book provides a blueprint for reforming education using the conceptual framework of professional learning communities (PLCs). This book defines PLCs and how they are built in normal environments. It looks at the conflict and post-conflict Liberia, and how despite all the challenges, one school succeeded to build a PLC in a school. Using the vicious circle of violence, poverty and educational disadvantage, how violence such as civil wars hinders education development is shown. The study provides educational institutions and other nation builders in pre-conflict, and especially those in conflict and post-conflict environments with a model for building PLCs in schools in such environments.
