Attaining the knowledge of modern teaching techniques
In an effort to help jump-start South Sudan’s capacity to deliver higher quality outcomes from their schools, we funded 14 teachers from both private and public schools to study 21st century teaching techniques for one semester at Arizona State University. Expanding the program is a top priority.
At Empower Kids, every initiative meets an important need for those living in South Sudan.
In an effort to help jump-start South Sudan’s capacity to deliver higher quality outcomes from their school system, we at Empower Kids South Sudan funded 14 South Sudanese teachers from both public and private schools to study 21st century teaching techniques on the campus of Arizona State University for one semester.
South Sudan’s educational system has been dramatically disrupted as a direct result of the civil war that erupted in the 1950’s. For decades, all of the basic components of any society were non-existent including a basic and stable education system.
At Empower Kids South Sudan, we hope to expand this vital education program to include dozens more educators who will learn today’s most effective teaching methods as well as attend courses about freedom and free enterprise orchestrated by the Eller School for Entrepreneurship at the University of Arizona.
The South Sudan Education Fellows Program is an opportunity for Mary Lou Fulton Teachers College to work together with the Ministry of Education, Science and Technology to design ways to enrich the development of teachers and leaders, enable great student success, and promote positive learning environments in our communities and schools.
With your financial support, we can work together to empower a new generation of South Sudanese people — in an effort to establish a much higher level of knowledge as they rebuild their country. 100 cents of every dollar you provide goes directly to our initiatives.
