Empowering University Faculty with Student-centered Teaching and Innovative Assessment Techniques

The overall objective of the project is to enhance the capacity of faculty members at the Paro College of Education and the Samtse College of Education of the Royal University of Bhutan, as well as faculty members at other colleges of the University, in using future-oriented teaching, learning, and assessment practices that align with global trends and respond to diverse needs of 21st century learners. This objective will be achieved through a series of activities, including the development of five professional development modules by experts from the consortium. 

These modules will be made available on the Royal University of Bhutan's Moodle platform as MOOCs, and will be used in offering hybrid professional development to the two colleges of education and the faculty members from other colleges of the Royal University of Bhutan and teachers across Bhutanese schools. 

Two of the modules will also be integrated into the B.Ed programme of the two colleges of education and offered to pre-service student teachers annually.
