In this episode of Class Dismissed, Dr. K sits down with Mr. Pelem, a dedicated teacher in rural Plateau State, Nigeria, to explore how insecurity is disrupting education in his community. Together, they unpack the daily challenges that students and teachers face—school closures, fear, emotional trauma, and learning gaps.
Mr. Pelem shares the creative ways teachers keep students engaged, including storytelling, one-on-one encouragement, and utilizing online platforms like WhatsApp when physical classes are not possible.
The conversation highlights the critical role of community involvement, such as active Parent-Teacher Associations and local security partnerships, in creating safer learning environments.
Listeners will also hear practical suggestions for recovery, like implementing accelerated learning programs, prioritizing foundational skills, and using radio, print, and low-tech tools to reach learners without digital access.
This episode is a powerful reminder of the resilience of teachers and students in crisis-affected regions—and the importance of supporting education not just through policy, but through empathy, creativity, and community action.
Class dismissed—until next time, let’s keep the conversation going!
