Introduction to Teacher Training Course

Overview of the Course

• This course is part of a teacher training initiative organized by UNIPE, aimed at enhancing secondary education leadership in Buenos Aires.

• The program reaffirms UNIPE's commitment to supporting teacher development and educational agents within the system.

Challenges in Secondary Education

• Since the enactment of the National Education Law in 2006, there has been a focus on improving inclusion and quality in mandatory secondary education.

• The need for transformation in secondary education is emphasized, particularly regarding student trajectories and graduation rates.

Policy Initiatives

• A new academic regime has been designed participatively with input from inspectors, school leaders, teachers, and students across the province.

• Addressing socioeconomic challenges such as poverty and inequality is crucial for youth in urban areas; trained leadership teams are essential for creating inclusive and democratic institutions.

Importance of Continuous Training

Role of Ongoing Professional Development

• Continuous training is vital for management roles that are not covered during initial teacher training; it promotes necessary autonomy for institutional development.

• The proposed permanent teacher training aims to bridge the gap between knowledge producers (researchers) and knowledge transmitters (teachers).

Collaborative Practices

• The course encourages teachers to become producers of pedagogical knowledge through collaborative practices across all institutional levels.
