[kictanet] Curriculum Reform - what is the tech community's input?

[Simeon Oriko]

Listers,

Some of you may be aware that the Kenya Institute for Curriculum (KICD), has embarked on curriculum reforms for basic and teacher education. (View the curriculum development cycle here <http://www.kicd.ac.ke/images/corpcomm/currdevcycle.pdf> [PDF]).

KICD is currently conducting a national needs assessment study whose findings will inform the reform process. KICD is thus calling for a submission of memoranda from the public.

In response, the ED10 Consortium <http://ed10.co/about/> has created this document <https://docs.google.com/document/d/1UiiRxzudjqcKJQ82Q-hWZZlmrlGeSMe1a0ik-PJm0w4/edit?usp=sharing> to crowdsource input and we will in turn organize your views and submit them as a joint memorandum for consideration by KICD.
We are also hosting a thinkathon (consultative meeting) this Sunday, 7th February 2016 at iHub from 2pm-4pm. You may register for the event here <https://www.eventbrite.com/e/ed10-thinkathon-kenya-education-curriculum-review-tickets-21252524874>. We hope to use this thinkathon to build consensus on issues and ideas raised at the meeting and on the document.

I’m curious: what submissions can the tech industry contribute to this process?

Kind Regards,

Simeon Oriko | Digital and Innovation Strategist
