Instructional Design Department
The Instructional Design department produces the learning materials that are used in schools across the communities where we work. This department has team members based in multiple NewGlobe support offices, organized into teams that each work on a portfolio of projects. Driving student achievement through the development of rigorous content is the number one priority. One core tenet of the approach is less lecture (traditional among many schools in our markets) and more student practice and teacher feedback. Consistent, rigorous opportunities to refine knowledge and skills are crucial to a child's learning progression. The Instructional Design department structures all lessons, textbooks, and other materials to ensure this.
About the Role
The elementary maths content writer will work with a small team to :
- Improve existing instructional materials for our global maths course using pupil performance data and lesson observations.
- Develop new context-specific course modules that meet unique government objectives not covered by our global course. This entails analyzing government syllabi and textbooks, designing the modules' scope and sequence, and scripting lesson plans that teach the content in an effective, age-appropriate, and culturally appropriate manner.
- Publish printed classroom materials to aid in math instruction.
The work is complex and changes frequently. Team members must be flexible and willing to do tasks outside this official scope in order to successfully complete given projects.
