Thank you for this guidance, Kris. If everybody follows it, it will really help the 5 facilitators/teachers on the course give better feedback.

So it would be really helpful if you could post your contributions in the appropriate discussion among the following ones that were started by Kris:

  • Activity 1.1: Your vision 
  • Activity 1.2: Educational policy and teacher education
  • Activity 1.4: UNESCO ICT Competency Framework for Teachers
  • Activity 1.5: Teachers’ use of OER 

The five facilitators/teachers on the course are :

  • Kris Stutchbury
  • Sandra Amos
  • Deborah Cooper
  • Michèle Deane
  • Helen Hendry

I do agree with Deane. Following the themes or headings for each activity helps us to think conceptually and also respond to key issues covered. exchange of information around the subheadings will also help improve on the course content and presentation in future.

Activity 1.1: My Vision is to see technology-enabled education  for every child in line with 21st Education vision.

Activity 1.2: Education Policy and Teacher Education: In my country the education policy emphasises, competence based curriculum and learner-centred pedagogy at all the levels. This has had an impact on teacher education. Pre-service teachers have to have their curriculum modified to give emphasis to the policy while in-service professional development renews teaching skills to effect the new demands in addition to then introduction of e-learning.

Activity1.4: UNESCO Framework: The framework emphasises the need for teachers to integrate ICT for teaching and learning in order to promote active teaching and learning.

Activity 1.5:Teachers' use of OERs: To me this has been a revelation that there are so many resources out there for free. No matter quality there are many children particularly in remote areas who have no access to textbooks or reading materials and yet OERs are there for teachers and learners to use. any improvements can be made to them but basic materials to use are available.

These are my views on key issues raised. Thanks to our facilitators for getting us to reflect on our current practices and the future as well.

Hello everyone

If you have started a new thread to answer one of the featured activities, it will be added to the discussion started by Kris. 

If you post a response to a topic that is in another week, your post will be moved to the correct week. 

This will keep the forums focussed on the issues in each section and encourage discussion. 

Sandra
