Teacher Portal:
A gateway for teachers to resources on the web |
IEQ's portal website for teachers is designed to facilitate access to
internet-based resources that can help strengthen primary school teaching
practice in developing countries. Although we realize that many developing
country teachers currently do not have direct access to the Internet,
access is growing in most countries. Audiences for the portal teacher
website include education policy-makers, developing country universities
and teacher training colleges, education NGOs, parent-teacher
organizations, and teachers themselves.
|
The website is organized around to a series of topics that are central to
teaching and learning in a developing country environment, (e.g., student assessment, student health). Each topic provides annotated listings and
electronic references to web-sites that offer relevant resources.
|
The listing and annotation for referenced websites is compiled by an
experienced IEQ staff member. The composition of websites within each topic
is designed to reflect a mix of both developing country-specific and
universal sites. The annotation for each site also informs users of the
technology required to download its information.
