FCA & TWB Distance Education & Digital Pedagogy Manual

This teacher training manual on Distance Education & Digital Pedagogy supports teachers and other education personnel’s continuous professional development in pedagogically high-quality distance education and remote learning especially in diverse, low resource contexts and is adaptable for use anywhere in the world.

The manual has been developed by Finn Church Aid (FCA) and Teachers Without Borders (TWB) Finland. The development of the training materials began already in 2020 as a response to the school lock-down situations caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, when teachers and learners quickly had to adapt to remote education modalities. Even though the pandemic has subsided, the need for quality distance education prevails. Ensuring the continuity of learning for all learners is critical in all contexts, even and especially during crisis situations.

The training manual consists of eight (8) training modules that can be used flexibly:

  1. Distance Education,
  2. Distance Education Modalities,
  3. Pedagogy of Digital and Distance Education,
  4. Psychosocial and Emotional Wellbeing,
  5. Learner-Centred Methods in Distance Education,
  6. Home Support – Parents and Caregivers’ Role and Collaboration,
  7. Inclusive Education, and
  8. Assessment and Evaluation.

The content design allows the trainer or facilitator to pick individual modules or sessions and adapt the training content according to the context and target group’s needs.

We hope you find it useful!

Play & resilience: a toolkit for teachers, caregivers, and other stakeholders

Play is an easy, natural and universal practice that builds resilience. Play comes naturally to all children- and is a seemingly simple and light-hearted phenomenon. The power of play as a pathway to building resilience needs to be leveraged to provide children with the opportunity to further explore play in their home and school environments.

This toolkit is therefore premised on the objectives to build the capacity of various stakeholders such as caregivers/teachers, school managers, curriculum planners and policy makers who are key actors in the process of growth and development of children. It is also aimed at equipping these stakeholders with the knowledge and pedagogical skills to translate research, policy and curriculum to practical knowledge and activities for children in the school environment. The toolkit offers directions for facilitators who will be working with caregivers/teachers using the materials and resources provided and other relevant materials available in an environment where it will be used.

Docentes en contextos de crisis: Coaching entre pares

En contextos de crisis, en los que muchos docentes carecen de formación o tienen una formación insuficiente, lo que más se necesita es un apoyo continuado; sin embargo, el desarrollo profesional en estos contextos es esporádico, de calidad variada y a menudo carece de apoyo de seguimiento tras la formación. Para hacer frente a esta falta de apoyo profesional de calidad para los docentes en contextos de crisis, el Grupo de Trabajo de Docentes en Contextos de Crisis (TiCC) publicó en marzo de 2016 el paquete formativo Formación para Docentes de Primaria en Contextos de Crisis, una formación basada en competencias diseñada específicamente para los docentes que trabajan en contextos de emergencia.

Tras la publicación del paquete de formación, el TiCC comenzó a trabajar en materiales complementarios de coaching entre pares. La formación entre pares es un desarrollo profesional continuo dirigido por docentes para docentes. El apoyo continuo que los docentes pueden prestarse mutuamente a través de la formación entre pares ayuda a los docentes a realizar cambios positivos sostenidos en su práctica docente. El coaching entre pares proporciona este apoyo a través de dos actividades principales: 1) Círculos de aprendizaje de docentes (CAD), y 2) Observaciones en el aula.

Los principales componentes son:

  • La guía para la facilitación 
  • Caja de herramientas de coaching entre pares, nivel 1 - solo CAD
  • Caja de herramientas de coaching entre pares, nivel 2 - CAD y observaciones en el aula

Mobile mentoring for primary school teachers in crisis contexts

The following curriculum provides the content for a new mobile mentoring initiative developed to accompany the Teachers in Crisis Contexts Working Group ‘Training for primary school teachers in crisis contexts’ (https://trc-dev.gn.apc.org/professional-development-materials-and-opportunities/training-primary-school-teachers-crisis). The material is intended to provide additional layers of instructional and emotional support via mobile technology to inexperienced and under trained teachers in the most difficult of teaching contexts. 

It has been designed to support both the Initial Training Pack and the Extended Training Pack and builds on the competency areas covered in both sets of trainings; ‘Teacher Role and Well Being’, ‘Child Protection, Well-being and Inclusion’, ‘Pedagogy’, ‘Curriculum and Planning’. The content provides teaching tips, motivational messages, reflection and discussion questions, plus images and video suggestions.

Training for primary school teachers in crisis contexts

The training pack responds to a critical gap in open source, competency based teacher training materials that provide coverage of foundational knowledge and skills required by teachers in crisis contexts, where teacher training is often limited to ad hoc workshops. The pack provides the basis for an in-service training program which can be used in its entirety to prepare unqualified teachers, but is also flexible enough for adaptation and use of selected modules or sessions according to the contextual needs of teachers. The pack provides foundational teacher training content on Teacher’s Role & Well-being; Child Protection, Well-being & Inclusion; Pedagogy; Curriculum & Planning; and Subject Knowledge.
