This volume describes a Participatory Action Research (PAR) project
involving educators from Belize and the U.S. to illustrate the
critical role of shared dialogue in transnational teacher
education. First identifying issues which inhibited the success of
formerly didactic training delivered to Belizean teachers by U.S.
educators, this volume documents the transformational impact of a
shift to collaborative training approaches and uses first-person
accounts from Belizean and U.S. stakeholders to illustrate their
successes. Chapters powerfully illustrate that by engaging in
Freirean-like dialogue and building relationships based on a mutual
understanding of the cultural and historical context, as well as
the identity of educators involved, partners are better able to
engage in effective transnational pedagogical collaboration.
Particular attention is paid to the importance of acknowledging the
post-colonial setting and unique positionality of teachers in
Belize. This text will benefit researchers, academics, and
educators with an interest in action research and teacher research,
multicultural education, and continued professional development in
particular. Those interested in teacher training, education
research, and international and comparative education will also
benefit from this book.
