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.
Integrating SEL & PSS into Lessons for Quality Holistic Learning
This open, self-paced course, Integrating SEL & PSS into Lessons for Quality Holistic Learning, was designed with a team of teachers working with refugee and vulnerable learners across Lebanon. It is intended to build upon previous learning related to social and emotional learning (SEL) and psychosocial support (PSS) to provide teachers with the confidence to critically evaluate activities, adapt them to their local context, and assess impact on student learning and well-being.
Educators who complete this online course will be able to:
- Define the concepts PSS and SEL.
- Integrate PSS and SEL in lesson plans.
- Create safe spaces for displaced learners, refugees, and other vulnerable students.
- Reflect on tools and teaching pedagogies when implementing PSS and SEL activities.
- Evaluate their adaptation and implementation of PSS and SEL activities.
It will take 8-10 hours, on average, to complete this course. It is entirely self-paced. There is a micro-credential opportunity shared at the end of the course for those interested in demonstrating their competency and earning a digital micro-credential and badge.
