The University of Cape Coast and the Ashanti branch of the Ghana National Association of Teachers (GNAT) have collaboratively launched a fresh educational program named Switch 3.1. Switch 3.1 has been designed to provide a unique opportunity for basic level teachers to transition and teach at the secondary level. This program aims to bridge the gap between these two educational levels and address the need for qualified educators in secondary schools. Details are as follows; 1.  Who qualifies to apply? Any teacher from anywhere across Ghana who has a degree in basic education  and wish to have another degree in secondary education. Diploma or HND holders do not qualify to apply.

GES to roll out PLC sessions across SHSs and SHTSs

Image
The Ghana Education Service (GES) has initiated plans for a national roll out of Professional Learning Community (PLC) sessions across all Senior High Schools (SHSs) and Senior High Technical Schools (SHTSs) in Ghana.  This is aimed at strengthening teachers’ understanding and adherence to the National Teachers’ Standards (NTS) and preparing them for the introduction of the new secondary education curriculum which will be rolled-out in the 2024/25 academic year.  GES piloted the use of PLC weekly sessions in 12 SHS and SHTS in January 2022, using structured handbooks developed in partnership with the National Teaching Council (NTC). A recent evaluation found that these weekly sessions had a significant impact on improving teaching and learning in these 12 schools, providing a strong evidence-base for the national scale-up of this approach.     To ensure the smooth institutionalisation of the PLC sessions across all schools, GES organized a five-day training session for a 100-member

Chapter 13: Technology Integration in Instruction Chapter Overview The main points in this chapter include the following: Effectiveness of Technology The effectiveness of technology depends on how teachers are able to integrate it into their lesson planning.   Lajoie (1993) summarized four cognitive activities that technologies can provide learners: Supporting students’ cognitive processes (e.g., memory or metacognitive processes) Relieving students’ cognitive load by providing for lower-level cognitive skills, leaving more time and effort needed for teaching higher-level cognitive skills Allowing students to engage in cognitive activities in an authentic environment that would be impossible or too costly to replicate in the classroom Promoting students’ higher-level cognitive skills by allowing them to generate solutions and assess themselves in a context they will encounter in future assignments, advanced grades, and the world of work Instructional Technologies Web  2.0 technologies,

Chapter 12: Assessing Learners

Chapter 12: Assessing Learners Chapter Overview Some of your strongest childhood and adolescent memories probably include taking tests in school. For that matter, test taking probably is among the most vivid memories of your college experience. If you are like most people who have spent many years in school, you have strong or mixed feelings about tests. In this chapter, we try to dispel some of the discomfort you might feel about tests and show how they can be effective tools in your classroom.   This chapter introduced you to some techniques for assessing student learning. Its key terms and main points were: Norm-Referenced and Criterion-Referenced Tests A test that determines a student's place or rank among other students is called a norm-referenced test (NRT). This type of test conveys information about how a student performed compared to a large sample of pupils at the same age or grade.   A test that compares a student's performance to a standard of mastery is called a cr
