Description: "In the last sixty years, Burma has experienced several periods of political upheaval, each of which has impacted on the country?s educational system. The first transition in 1948 was from colonial to national education, and the second, following the 1962 military coup, was from national to ?socialist? education. In this paper, I will address these periods of educational change and, anticipating Burma?s eventual transition to democracy, will suggest a plan to decentralize the educational system fr om classroom through to national level. I will draw from my seven years of educational work for displaced Burmese young people along the Thai-Burma border, and from my current re search on education in democracy. I will also discuss strategies for promoting educational reform and strengthening cultural and national identity within the context of a democratic transition in a multi-ethnic society."...

Description: "The paper explores the current educational si tuation in Burma and educational activities outside Burma based on the exiled author?s wo rk for the education of Burmese children and teacher education. Education in Burma has deteriorated at all levels in terms of equity, quality and efficiency during many years under the military regime. Burmese schools have predominantly offered teacher-cen tered and subject-orie nted teaching and rote learning. There is a la ck of teacher trai ning and a weak curriculum. The regime uses education as a political tool preventing children from learning how to think."...

Description: "This paper deals with the educational cost of army rule in Burma in at least four respects. First, there is a lack of access to education due to years of neglect regarding compulsory basic education. Second, the school curriculum fails to promote skills, which are needed for the world of work as well as social life. Third, there is no provision for teaching in languages other than Burmese for children whose mother tongue is not Burmese. The three problems mentioned above are worsened by the fact that the teaching profession is undermined by the regime."...

Description: "The paper mainly focuses on the curriculum development in the ethnic nationality areas of Burma. However, the study found that cu rriculum development alone could not solve the educational problems due to the fact that the majority of children had no proper education, the drop out rate is high and th e quality of teaching is low. The paper provides findings of the studies on curricula, teaching methods and children?s access to education in the ethnic nationality areas of Bu rma. It also reflects the suggestions of participants at the education conference held in Chiang Mai, Thailand in July 2002 organized by the Burmese National Hea lth and Education Committee (exiled)."

Description: "The ethnic groups that live in Burma/Myanmar possess distinctive national, cultural and language identities. However, the teaching of indigenous minority languages has been prohibited since 1962, and, even though changes are being introduced, that policy largely remains in place today. The paper outlines brief historical background of eight major ethnic groups and, introduces to the ethnic languag es and their status in Burmese/Myanmar education. It considers issues relating the teaching of ethnic minority languages, and discusses the question, "What should be the policy on language education in Burma/Myanmar?" The paper argues that there is a need to take into consideration „multilingual education‟ in the light of the linguistic diversity that exists in Burma. It sees linguistic diversity as a positive characteristic of the country, and safeguarding this diversity as an important task for its citizens."...

Description: "With the dialogue between the ruling regime and the democratic opposition once again deadlocked, many people are thinking that Burma is due for an Iraq-style "regime change." Regardless of the manner in whic h political change comes to the country, however, the initial period of reconstruction following the establishment of democracy will be especially challenging for educators. The success of Burma?s efforts to reestablish itself as a democratic nation will depend largely on its capacity to introduce sweeping educational reforms—from the cl assroom to the state level."
