TEPD (GAC) held a webinar for its Student Teachers under the title “Shifting to Online Learning”

QRTA - TEPD - As part of the professional development offered for the student teachers of the Teacher Education Professional Diploma program (TEPD)-GAC, a webinar was held entitled ‘Shifting to Online Learning’. The aim was to introduce the different types of online learning to the student teachers and apply some of its activities. The webinar was presented by Education Technology Officer Saja Amr and Teacher Educator Dana Abu Sara. 

Student Teachers reflected on their learning experiences and shared some of the applications they use as well as had answers to their inquiries. 

The session was planned to meet the needs of the student teachers in the TEPD program since it is an online program and requires an understanding of the structure and needs of online learning by its participants. 

Queen Rania Teacher Academy (QRTA) continues its training programs for 2022 in cooperation with the Jordanian Ministry of Education and with the support of the Canadian government, implementing pedagogy programs for numerous majors – namely Arabic, Science, English, Social Studies, and Math – as well as the Innovation in Education Program, Advanced Instructional Leadership Professional Diploma (AILPD), and Teacher Education Professional Diploma (TEPD).

The Teacher Education Professional Diploma (TEPD) encourages teachers to view the educational environment as more than a classroom, but as a source of creativity, leadership, and intellectual curiosity. TEPD comprises subjects in the general pedagogies of teaching and learning and in subject-specific pedagogies and ensures the practical application of theoretical frameworks so teachers can provide their students with the skills and knowledge necessary to build a generation that contributes to society and the nation. Participants of TEPD – which this year targets the entire Kingdom - are also trained to manage the learning environment as a space to elevate the competencies and capabilities of students.
