The in-service teacher training programme was developed and adapted to UNESCO ICT Competency Framework for Teachers (CFT Version 3) and built by adapting and supplementing existing Open Educational Resources (OER). UNESCO ICT CFT consists of 18 competencies organized according to the six aspects of teachers’ professional practice, over three levels of teachers’ pedagogical use of ICT. The underlying idea is that teachers who have competencies to use ICT in their professional practice will deliver quality education and ultimately be able to effectively guide the development of students’ ICT competencies. Rwanda in-service teacher training programme focuses on competencies to integrate the appropriate ICT tools in a classroom setting and bring new experiences to Rwandan schools so that students and teachers have more exposure to an environment that grants them access to more valuable information. The in-service teacher training programme is designed to empower Rwandan school teachers to use ICT as an educational tool to enhance their teaching and learning.

The Commonwealth Certificate for Teacher ICT Integration ( CCTI )has been developed to improve
teachers’ experience teaching in the classroom using a range of information and communication
technologies (ICT) appropriately, and increase school manager’s involvement in the ICT
implementation process in the school. It challenges school managers and teachers to constantly
reflect on what they do in their school and classrooms and how ICT can be integrated into their
evolving management and teaching styles.

This study unit provides an introduction to curriculum and assessments, based on the UNESCO ICTCFT competencies.

Assessment is an essential process that provides information about what learners know and can do. Assessment allows teachers to make recommendations for future learning interventions. Assessment is the ongoing process of gathering, analysing and interpreting, using and reflecting on evidence to make informed and consistent judgements to improve future learning.

In this unit you will learn about the different types of diagnostic assessment tools, when best to make use of them in your teaching and how ICT can benefit them.

The aim of this unit is that upon completion, teachers will be able to demonstrate how various ICT can be used in the curriculum and be used to improve assessment.
