2018 School Specific Programme (Tier I)

Akim Akokoaso SHTS, Eastern Region

30 Teachers and Heads

February 21-23, 2018

Similar to the Odoben SHS programmes, the Akim Akokoaso SSP was at the invitation of a former beneficiary of INTED training (Mr. Daniel Kwamla Agordo, an Assistant Head Academic of Akim Asafo SHS at the time), who has now been promoted to head of a new school.  The training was led by 2 pioneer Master Fellows that benefited from the 2012 Master Fellow Programme. Teachers received training in three Tier I Teaching Practice modules, and Heads also received training in both Teaching Practice and Instructional Leadership modules.  Each training day was dedicated to one module, where leaders received new strategies to support teaching colleagues, while teachers held strategy practice sessions in Design Studios.

 

The modules covered were:

*  Lesson Design and Factors Affecting Student Learning

*  Using Prior Knowledge

*  Active Student Engagement

 

Results: About 30 teachers from Akim Akokoaso SHTS were trained.  A sample of the pictures taken during this training is filed with the report and online.  All participants who completed the training received certificates.
