CRISIS-LED APPROACHES TO TEACHING AND LEARNING IN BANGLADESH
Home: Welcome
This project examines crisis-led approaches to teaching and learning in Bangladesh in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, and explores the potential for outdoor, blended learning approaches for future years in a low-income country context.
Education systems in low-income countries have rapidly responded to the Covid-19 pandemic with extremely limited resources, resulting in adaptive and unique approaches to teaching and learning (use of mobile phones; national television), but many children are missing out on critical periods of their education.
In Bangladesh, despite 99% of children being enrolled in primary schools, the majority learn in overcrowded classrooms and do not achieve the expected learning outcomes. Smartphones are widespread, but few children have access to computers and quality internet connections. Equally, children living in dense urban environments have poor access to greenspaces and associated wellbeing benefits. The situation is exacerbated due to the COVID-19 pandemic and a reform in the education policy is underway in response
