Cultivating ILCs in China: A Pathway to Culturally Sustaining and Transformative Education
Abstract
This chapter will take a close look at how intentional learning communities (ILCs) are helping to reform China's educational system. In the first section, classic Confucian ideals are highlighted while providing a brief outline of the system's historical and philosophical underpinnings. The chapter will look at how ILCs have grown in popularity and how they've helped improve education for both students and teachers. It highlights the potential of ILCs in encouraging culturally relevant and long-lasting pedagogical methods, taking into account the rich cultural diversity of the Chinese environment. The opportunities and difficulties of adopting ILCs are discussed in this chapter. The difficulties include policy impediments, institutional resistance, and linguistic issues. ILCs' revolutionary potential in adult education and their impact on a more collegial leadership paradigm are highlighted. The final section provides an outlook on ILCs in China, highlighting their potential to contribute to the development of a more progressive, inclusive, and culturally resilient educational system.
