dc.description.abstract	Poster of a program held at the East Academic Center at Bennington College on March 5, 2015. “Wanted: Adventurous teacher to work with 100 amazing students in the most beautiful place in the world.” This was the job advertisement that drew KELLY WARD ’12, to begin teaching English to underserved teenagers from remote nomadic areas in Western China. In her presentation, she will introduce the Tibetan community she lives and works in as a microcosm through which to explore the ever-changing landscape of education in China and the challenges f acing Chinese and Tibetan teens today. Kelly is currently Head Teacher and Curriculum Developer at a small high school intensive English program on the Qinghai Tibetan Plateau. Her book, Fading Memories, Faded Lives: Mongghul Photographs from Qinghai, China, which she co-authored with Limushiden, Jugui, and Dr. Kevin Stuart, was published in December 2014.	en_US
