Almost 50 teachers from seven schools of the region took part in the second semester.
The second semester of the “Educational Everest” teacher training project began on June 9 in Lviv.
As a reminder, “Educational Everest” is a unique project for Ukraine, which is jointly implemented by the Department of Education and Science of the Lviv Regional State Administration and the Lviv Regional Institute of Postgraduate Pedagogical Education – in accordance with the Education Development Program of the Lviv Region for 2021-2025. Co-organizers – trainers of the project Oksana Kleputs, Mar Yana Dmitriev and Zhanna Korol.
The main goal of the initiative is to increase the professional level of school teachers, in particular, through the formation of a self-sufficient network of training centers for the professional improvement of pedagogical workers in the region, as well as the training of teacher trainers for them. ⠀
During the second semester, 7 teams representing some of the most successful schools from different communities of Lviv took part in training:
David Lyceum named after T.G. Shevchenko;
Zhovkivskyi ZZSO No. 3;
Zhuravnivskyi KZZSO school-lyceum;
Ivano-Frankivsk ZZSO I – III degrees named after Ivan Franko;
Verkhnyosinovydnensky ZZSO of the I-III degrees named after P. Yatsika;
The main institution of general secondary education of grades I-III in the city of Khyriv;
Shegynivska secondary school of grades I-III.
Each team has 7 people – school principals and teachers. In total, the training will last 6 days throughout June.
“The project “Educational Everest” is interesting not only because it allows you to improve qualifications, create professional centers or exchange experience. On its basis, it will be possible to create an electronic encyclopedia of educational innovations, where it will be possible to collect the best experience of all educational institutions of the Lviv region. The goal is to initiate a large-scale process of spreading the best practices in the field of education,” said Oleg Paska, director of the Department of Education and Science of the Lviv Academy of Education.
“One of the goals of the project is to create an alternative to professional development centers, since there are not enough of them, and the quality of work of these centers clearly does not fully meet the needs of teachers. Yes, today there are 73 communities and only 16 centers for the professional development of teachers in the Lviv region,” added Iryna Sislyuk, head of the “Educational Everest” project, head of the department of preschool, general secondary education and extracurricular work of the LOVA Department of Education and Science.
It should be noted that during the first session of the project, which took place in May this year, 50 teachers from seven schools of different communities of the region received certificates of improvement in teaching skills.
