Aims and Objectives
This project aims to expand the reach of early childhood education resources in Cambodia by building on our existing digital platform for teachers. Leveraging the success of our previous projects (CLIP1, 2 and 3), we will empower head teachers to train their peers and broaden access to resources through Rermork.org website.
The project has three key components:
1. Enhance Rermork.org: We will further develop the free online platform (rermork.org) of resources, to include online training modules and allow teachers to upload and share their own resources. Monthly competitions will be promoted through our online teacher groups to encourage participation and innovation.
2. Train Head Teachers: We will work with one head teacher from each of Pursat's five districts, providing advanced training to enable them to share knowledge with other teachers. These teachers have already completed 2 years of training through our previous CLIP projects.
3. Launch a YouTube Educational Series: We will produce a "Play School" (Australian educational television show for children produced by the education department)-style show to demonstrate play-based learning using our free downloadable resources. This will show:
• Teachers how to incorporate play-based learning;
• Parents how to engage in their child's education from home;
• Children how to participate in culturally relevant, engaging educational content.
By leveraging our existing digital resources and trained educators, this project will reduce the future need for direct involvement, ensure sustainable growth and expand our reach. Teachers, parents, and children will benefit from greater access to quality resources, fostering a collaborative learning environment.
The Rotary Club of Calgary in partnership with the Rotary Club of Pursat and the Co-Operating Organization Tuk Tuk Charity have been working on this project for nine years, steadily moving towards the goal of creating a sustainable platform for Cambodian teachers. With each project, our co-operating organization has gotten closer to empowering teachers to create, share, and maintain their own resources independently. This project represents a crucial step in that journey, where teachers take ownership of the platform with minimal involvement from us.
The ultimate aim is to reach a point where Tuk Tuk Charity's presence is no longer necessary, and the education community thrives on its own. We're excited to help make that vision a reality.
