| Summary: | Technology for Teaching (T4T) is the
World Bank’s program to assist countries implement
effective, scalable teacher professional development (TPD)
programs that use low- and high-technology solutions to
train and support teachers/Pedagogical Leaders (PLs). T4T
provides practical tools to policymakers and practitioners
for designing and implementing operationally feasible
tech-based TPD in their contexts, thus contributing to build
inclusive and resilient education systems. This Note
presents common barriers that teachers/PLs face at each TPD
stage and offers operationally feasible, tech-based
mitigation strategies. These will enhance access to and
engagement with TPD, will improve application of skills and
knowledge in the classroom, and can be implemented in
low-resource contexts. Drawing on emerging research and
successful on-the-ground programs that support teachers/PLs
from across the globe, this Note can be used by policymakers
and practitioners to consider a range of options to address
implementation barriers and scale up TPD programs using technology. |
