About The Project
Welcome to the Training
The evolution in Information Communication Technology and other supporting Technologies has caused disruptions in the traditional process and business models, work styles and life styles. The same has been caused in education where current trends dictate that education is provided as a service. Specifically, the fusion between education and ICT gave birth to education technology, also know as EdTech.
EdTech is a field that designs and implements technology for educators and students to enhance the learning experience. New learning needs new environments, the revision of the national secondary school curriculum to skill based curriculum requires tools that can empower both the teachers and the learner to accomplish the goals and intentions of the curriculum developers. This training is intended to leverage and technology and new teaching techniques to make education more “personalized, adaptive and real-world” focused.
The country has placed more emphasis on science education, supporting teachers to integrate education technologies in their teaching empower them to be more skill focused while having the opportunity to collaborate with other teachers.
Project Objectives
The project for training of Science Teachers in the Integration of ICT in Teaching and learning is intended to achieve the following objectives;
1. To expose science teachers to a range of ICT tools that they can use and integrate in their teaching and learning.
2. To align teaching of Science subjects with the national goals of promoting science Education
3. To empower science teachers with transferable skills and competences in the use of ICT to teach science subjects
4. To equip science teachers with practical skills and pedagogical techniques to use ICT tools to create learning materials for science subjects.
5. To create a community of practice of science teachers that can independently or collaboratively work to create, manage and share science learning materials with other teachers and learners to improve the teaching and learning experience throughout the country.
Project Outcomes
The training of Science Teachers in the Integration of ICT in Teaching and learning project in the due course shall equip science teachers with demonstrable and transferable skills. At the end of the training, the teachers shall be able to;
1. Demonstrate knowledge and understanding of a range of ICT tools applicable to integrate in their teaching and learning.
2. Align teaching of Science subjects with the national goals of promoting science Education
3. Demonstrate transferable skills and competences in the use of ICT to teach science subjects
4. Apply practical skills and pedagogical techniques while using ICT tools to create learning materials for science subjects.
5. Belong to a community of practice of science teachers with ability to independently or collaboratively work to create, manage and share science learning materials with other teachers and learners to improve the teaching and learning experience throughout the country.
