NTC lecturers redefining the teaching process in Uganda

  • NTC Lecturers Redefining the Teaching Process in Uganda


With the significant change to the way learning is presently operating, it is inevitable that teachers must re-skill at a record pace to support the continuity of learning.
This means stepping away from traditional teaching methods and embracing the use of technology.
A concept that Enabel has long since been supporting in the National Teachers’ Colleges (NTCs) in Uganda.

Teachers in the NTCs are now responding to the education crisis by adapting to use ICT tools to deliver and develop lesson content, an idea made possible through a series of Community of Practise (CoP) sessions. These serve as collaborative virtual meetings through which lecturers learn how to use different digital tools for teaching and learning such as screen-casting, podcasting, video conferencing, E-books, and padlet among others.

These sessions have gained popularity in the teacher colleges and now facilitate the blended learning approach within their education system with the benefits trickling as far as the partner secondary schools attached to the colleges.

Ojok Simon Stephen, a teacher from Ocer Campion Jesuit College, a secondary school in Gulu had this to say.

“I have attended four Community of Practice sessions and my favourite tool is PowerPoint because it doesn’t require constant use of the internet. I am able to work on my laptop and later share work with my students online. It is something am happy to use even when schools resume.”
