TEACHER SUPPORT IN A DIVERSE CLASSROOM:
Portal educarchile
We offer teachers and school managers different contents to promote the development of 21st century skills by introducing and implementing innovative educational methodologies.
Twenty years ago we launched Educarchile along with the Ministry of Education to accompany teachers throughout the country in their quest for better quality in education.
Currently, the questions on what is relevant to learn to live in today’s world and the way to do it, are more open than ever. Social challenges, digital transformation, climatic change, and migratory movements put new demands on schools. The role of the teacher is changing: they are not the only source of knowledge anymore. The teacher instead, has become a facilitator of the students’ learning guiding them in a world flooded with stimuli and information.
Learning to learn through and for life has become the great skill to acquire in order to tackle the future, especially for teachers. To lead this change, they must be prepared, develop skills, and master new methodologies. To this end, the Educarchile portal centers its proposal on classroom teachers and school managers, offering a series of contents geared to promoting the development of 21st century skills, by introducing and implementing innovative educational methodologies that promote a more active and contextualized learning process, considering the students’ preferences and concerns.
