The Hon. Maxine Henry Wilson is Minister of Education, Youth and Culture for Jamaica and holds the firm belief that education is the tool for effective change..."To teachers in the classroom: We have to equip ourselves with the most up-to-date methodologies and the latest thinking. The issues raised in these essays all speak to the diversity of challenges you face. To the authors: You have identified many of the significant issues which will guide us at all levels, but which policymakers especially need in order to make informed and rational decisions.To the editors: Thank you for compiling such a coherent volume, which in its limited number of pages has covered such a wide space of issues.The potential for education is the richer for the collaborative effort reflected in this publication."Maxine Henry-Wilson.
