Sommario/riassunto |
|
Education for Uncertainty: Collected Speeches on Transforming Caribbean Education for Global is a compilation of twenty-five speeches by Dr. Didacus Jules, an educator and policy expert, focusing on the challenges and opportunities in Caribbean education. Through themes of volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity, Dr. Jules addresses how global realities shape the educational landscape in the Caribbean. He emphasizes the need for educational systems that promote resilience, inclusivity, and innovation to prepare learners for an uncertain future. Dr. Jules advocates for educational reform rooted in social justice, democracy, and cultural authenticity. His speeches draw on experiences from the Grenadian Revolution to his roles in various educational leadership positions. The book serves as a call to action for educators, policymakers, and citizens to adopt a holistic approach to education, equipping youth with skills to navigate contemporary challenges. |
