Full Time Faculty - Associate Professor

Professor McClure’s international research is primarily related to professional development networks related to ‘safe places for children to learn’ using the Internet and field-based strategy in unstable political and economic regions. Most recently she is heading up a university team for USAID’s five year Decentralized Basic Education (DBE2) project in Indonesia. The purpose is to establish sustainable partnerships with ten universities in Central Java, South Sulawesi, East Java and Banda Aceh, serving a general population of about 85 million people. She is also working on education and human security issues with the Ford Center for Human Security. This research includes cost-effective policies to prevent the recruitment of child soldiers during conflicts.
