| dc.description.abstract | This is the terminal report of a UNESCO and UNDP project for teacher improvement and curriculum development, based in Jamaica but implemented through regional programmes in the English-speaking Caribbean from 1971 to 1975. Lower secondary education in 15 territories and countries of the region was particularly undermined by inadequate human, material, and methodological resources. The project carried out materials preparation, including curriculum guides and increased circulation of educational periodicals. It used, produced, and disseminated educational media including closed circuit television, video tape and sound tape recordings, film strips, super-8 films, and transparencies for overhead projectors. Microteaching featured prominently and successfully in its inservice teacher education programmes, which also used an activity learning approach by involving trainees in workshops for the preparation of a new secondary school curriculum in the fields of mathematics, sciences, and language arts. The latter two proved particularly successful due to their realism. A bibliography of materials produced is included | |
