Thank you for your continued support!
Since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, Enseña por Panama actively adapted to the new virtual context. At first we succesfyly created a virtual training program for all interested public shool teachers. Here are some of the results:
+ 500 teachers trained in the development of effective teaching guides focused on the development of the student's autonomy.
+ 120 hours free virtual training in pedagogy and collective leadership for teachers of the educational system.
+ 600 certified teachers through the virtual course "Teaching tools to innovate in the teaching role".
97% satisfaction with the pedagogical experience of the course.
We are currently working with the Educational Excellence Foundation and Unicef Panama to
train more than 400 teachers in pedagogy and social leadership.
12 weekly talks with partners and experts in education and leadership from all over Latin America. We had
+ 1150 people registered.
A month after, we decided to focus on premedia (7th to 9th grade) students who could only continue their education through TV and/or radio (over 70% of the student population) because of lack of acces to internet, electornic device or electricity.
The national initiative is called "La Estrella Enseña"
Initiative between the Ministry of Education and Teaches for Panama that has the objective of following up pre-school students who receive classes through the distance education strategy "Connect with the Star". The initiative includes the following lines of action:
• Repository of all pre-media class presentations screened on television so that students can consult them through the Teach for Panama website.
• Creation of additional content, readings, exercises, challenges for students to strengthen their learning.
• Creation of an Instagram account (@estrellaensena) to interact with students through exercises and digital activities.
+103,000 downloads of pedagogical materials.
164 pedagogical materials available in the repository. +1,700 followers on Instagram (@estrellaensena). +2,900 interactions on Instagram (@estrellaensena). 33,205 visits to the seventh grade page.
24,461 visits to the eighth grade page. 22,189 visits to the ninth grade page.
Fuerthermore we have created diverse guides and content that has helped teachers and parents to continue their student's education at home. We are extremely proud of our team and what we are achieving in such changing and difficult times. The current crisis has tested everyone but at the same time made un realize our full potential.
Thank you again for supporting our mission!
