Developing Learners And Learning In Teacher Education In The Seychelles: A Critical Investigation, Odile Jean-Louis Jan 2005

Developing Learners And Learning In Teacher Education In The Seychelles: A Critical Investigation, Odile Jean-Louis

Theses: Doctorates and Masters

The development of education, and specifically, 'lifelong learners', 'professional-learning communities’ and a 'learning society' is one of the priorities of the Seychelles Government. This study focused on an issue fundamental to such development: the type of teacher education required to develop future citizens of the Seychelles into lifelong learners and to lead the country into a learning society. In the Seychelles a new National Curriculum was established in 1997, but to date little research has been undertaken in teacher education and existing programmes have remained intact.
