| dc.description.abstract | In 2009, Edukans introduced the World Teacher Program (WTP) in five different countries, including Malawi. The goal of the program is to motivate and inspire teachers and to improve quality education. This study provides a description of the context related concept of quality education, by literature and by the Malawian teachers. Furthermore it describes the design, implementation and outcome of the WTP, and how it can be better adjusted to the Malawian view on quality education. In order to examine this, in-depth interviews, including a determinant analysis, were conducted with teachers, student teachers en involved community members. The results of this study showed that it’s difficult to create quality education in Malawi, because of barriers like poor circumstances. The WTP is helping to improve quality education; it are mostly the materials and the mutual learning through equal conversations which motivate and stimulate the teachers. According to the participants, the visits of World Teachers should be continues and longer. Parents could be involved to create more community involvement. | |
