Education

From 2006 to 2008, after intensive systematic study, Living Knowledge Communities, Northwest Normal University and Jingchuan County Education Bureau have jointly organized a 3-year project called “The Learning School Community in Rural China Project” (LSCiRC). Involving 9 primary and 9 middle schools in Jingchuan County, the LSCiRC aims to help put traditional rural schools on a trajectory of transformation into learning schools. LiKeCom’s long-term goal is to translate the Jingchuan experience into a model for replication in other impoverished communities of rural China so as to speed up rural educational and community development in China. Project experts are invited to organize regular trainings for rural teachers and school principals and administrators, scientific educational action researches, exchange activities and encourage the establishment of pluralist communities of practice to raise the human capacity of the rural community with the application of information and communication technologies.
