Introduction to Asset Based Pedagogies in Displacement Contexts Workshops Facilitation Guide
This manual is intended to support the delivery of one full day workshop on the topic of supporting Quality Holistic Learning in crisis contexts through the implementation of asset-based pedagogical tools and activities and through sustaining safe and secure learning spaces. The workshops are the result of the insightful contributions of a committed team of teachers and educators from Kenya, Lebanon, and Niger.
The Quality Holistic Learning Project (QHL), of which this face-to-face workshop is one element, aims to prepare educators to deliver high-quality lessons which support holistic learning for children and youths of diverse backgrounds (refugee, migrant, and/or citizen) within host country, displacement, and crisis contexts. We define quality holistic learning as that which attends to:
- academic, cognitive, and identity development,
- social and emotional learning, and
- mental/psychosocial and physical well-being and which delivers: positive schooling experiences, feelings of belonging and safety, growth and development, and equitable outcomes for all learners.
Teaching respect for all: implementation guide
This Teaching Respect for All Implementation Guide comprises a set of policy guidelines, questions for self-reflection, ideas and examples of learning activities to integrate Teaching Respect for All into all aspects of upper primary and lower secondary education, in an effort to counteract discrimination in and through education. It mainly targets policy makers, administrators/headteachers and formal and informal educators.
Part 2 targets headteachers and education NGO managers, suggesting key areas of intervention with a list of possible actions/activities and Part 3 targets teachers and describes methods of dealing with difficult topics such as racism and discrimination with learners as well as provides suggestions for possible entry points and topics to link the issues of respect for all with particular teaching subjects.
