| Project Detail |
The Overall Goal
National level of academic skills and knowledge obtained in primary mathematics and science is improved.
Project Purpose
Children become to understand mathematics and science better in primary education.
Output
Measures to address the challenges in teaching and learning in primary mathematics and science are identified and responded in curriculum revision (PEDP4 Subcomponent 1.1)
The challenges in teaching and learning in primary mathematics and science are responded in the revisions of textbooks and teaching-learning materials (TLMs) (PEDP4 Subcomponent 1.2)
Teachers are trained through appropriately-designed Teacher Education to respond to the challenges in teaching and learning in mathematics and science (PEDP4 Subcomponent 1.4)
Teachers are continuously supported through appropriately-designed Continuous Professional Development (CPD) to respond to the challenges in teaching and learning (PEDP4 Subcomponent 1.5 and 1.6)
Project Activities
1.1 Provide technical inputs to the mathematics and science parts of the NCTB studies on the current status and challenges in teaching and learning to inform curriculum and TLMs revision
1.2 Support revising mathematics and science curriculum based on the proposals in the Reports from Activity 1.1 (including coordination for consistency with pre-primary)
1.3 Support developing curriculum dissemination training materials in mathematics and science in line with the revised curriculum
2.1 Support revising G1-5 textbooks in mathematics and science based on Output 1 (including coordination for consistency with pre-primary)
2.2 Support revising teachers guide/edition for G1-5 based on Output 1 (including coordination for consistency with pre-primary)
2.3 Support developing and/or revising other TLMs related to mathematics and science, as necessary, based on Output 1
3.1 Provide technical inputs to the mathematics and science parts of the DPEd effectiveness study
3.2 Support revising mathematics and science curriculum and course materials of DPEd based on the results of the study in Activity 3.1 and revised primary curriculum
3.3 Support developing materials for a training on the revised DPEd curriculum for PTI instructors for mathematics and science
3.4 Support developing modules of a training course for Head teachers, AUEOs/ATEO and URC instructors for their capacity development to mentor DPEd trainees
4.1 Contribute to the CPD study based on the findings from JSP2
4.2 Support developing a framework for teachers and teacher-educators CPD, including a curriculum for the different profiles of professionals and a model for School-based CPD
4.3 Support developing CPD materials including digital materials in relevant areas
4.4 Contribute to capacity building of relevant stakeholders in CPD curriculum delivery based on Activity 4.3
4.5 Provide technical support for improving the quality of CPD activities implemented under the CPD framework based on Activity 4.3
