Dpe Has Been Implementing A Number Of Training Programmes Under Cpd Provisions. As Per The Decision Of The 8th Joint Consultative Meeting (jcm) Of Pedp4, A Study Is To Be Conducted To Understand The Process Of Planning, Designing And Implementing As Well As To Analyse The Appropriateness Of Institutional Arrangements, Quality Assurance Mechanisms And Resources Invested For These Training Programmes. The Agency Will Serve As An Additional Hand To The Unicef Education Team For Effectively And Timely Completing The Assignment. Estimated Duration For The Study Is Ten Months.   Purpose The Purpose Of The Assignment Is To Support The Directorate Of Primary Education (dpe) In Planning, Designing And Carrying Out A Study On The Effectiveness Of Cpd Programme For The Primary Education Teachers In Bangladesh. The Findings Of The Study Are Expected To Inform The Next Sector Programme, Especially To Identify Areas For Further Strengthening The Overall Teacher Development Activities In Primary Education. Location The Assignment Will Be Based In Dhaka, But Field Travel Will Be Required For Data Collection. Estimated Duration Around 10 Months Technical Supervisor Of The Assignment Education Officer, Education Section             Background And Context Teachers, In Sufficient Number And With Required Qualification, Competency And Professional Readiness, Are The Most Crucial Input To Any Education System. If Teachers Are Not Trained, Nurtured And Supported Enough Throughout Their Career, There Will Always Be Capacity Gaps To Meet The Learning Demands Of Children Adequately And Effectively. No Education System Can Perform At The Optimum Expected Level And Ensure Student Learning, If Teachers Remain Weakly Prepared. Therefore, A Coherent And Well-planned Cpd System Should Be In Place That Is Appropriately Resourced And Responsive To The Existing And Emerging Capacity Development Needs Of Teachers, Their Educators And Supervisors. The Fourth Primary Education Development Programme (pedp4) (2018-2025) Is A Comprehensive Initiative Encompassing The Primary Education Sub-sector, Comprising All Essential Developmental Endeavours Within The Sector. Pedp4 Activities Are Categorized Into Three Components And 21 Sub-components. The Pedp4 Puts Emphasize On Developing Teachers’ Professional And Technical Capacity. The Sub-component 1.5 Is On Continuous Professional Development (cpd), Which Aims To “ensure That All Teachers And Teacher Educators Acquire The Requisite Professional Standards Through A Continuous Engagement In Professional Development Activities.” Achieving This Goal Is Possible With A Coherently Articulated System That Makes Professional Development The Norm. In Order To Realize This Vision, A Cpd Framework Was Developed In Year 1 (2018 – 2019) Of Pedp4. The Framework Encompasses All Types Of Teacher Professional Development Interventions With Review Of Current Training Curricula, Delivery Methods, Training Assessment And Monitoring Mechanisms And Implementation Of The Training Knowledge/skills At The Classroom Level. Guided By The Cpd Framework As Well As Based On The Needs, Dpe Provides Following Training Under Cpd Programme In Primary Education Sub-sector: Type Of Cpd Training[1] Target Group Academic Supervision Training Assistant Upazila/thana Education Officer (aueos/ateos) Induction Training For Newly Recruited Teachers Assistant Teachers (teaching At G1-g5) Induction Training For Newly Recruited Ppe Teachers Assistant Teachers For Pre-primary Education Leadership Training Headteachers Ict In Education Training All Teachers Need-based Sub-cluster Training All Teachers Curriculum Dissemination Training All Teachers Competency Based Item Development And Test Administration Training All Teachers Training Of Master Trainer In English (tmte) Selected Teachers/ Aueos/ateos As Master Trainers A 7-day Foreign Training Selected Teachers And Educators Send Training Two Teachers Per School Subject-based Training Core Subjects Bangla Assistant Teachers English Assistant Teachers Math Assistant Teachers Science Assistant Teachers Bangladesh And Global Studies Assistant Teachers Non-core Subjects Physical Education Assistant Teachers Arts And Crafts Assistant Teachers Music Assistant Teachers These Training Programmes Are Expected To Help Teachers To Continuously Develop Their Skills And Professional Capacities In Facilitating Effective Teaching-learning Process In Classroom. Dpe Develops/updates Manuals, Materials And Resource Books For Each The Above-mentioned Training Activity. Different Training Programmes Are Facilitated By Different Educators. Instructors At Primary Teachers’ Training Institutes And Upazila Resource Center (urc) Instructors Have The Main Responsibility Of Delivering These Training. The Need-based Sub-cluster Training Is Usually Conducted By The Assistant Upazila Education Officers. There Is A Yearly Training Calendar Prepared By Dpe With A Plan To Organize Different Types Of Cpd Programmes. The Current Study Has Been Planned To Look Into These Aspects, Especially Understand The Current Situation Of How The Cpd Training Programmes Are Planned And Implemented As Well As To Get An Insight Into The Extent To Which The Teachers Translate Their Learning In The Lesson Delivery In Schools.   Rationale / Purpose Of The Evidence Activity Data From The National Student Assessment (nsa) 2022[2] Indicates That Students Are Struggling To Meet The Expected Learning Levels, With Only About Half Of The Students Achieving Expected Competencies In Bangla And Just A Third In Mathematics In Grades 3 And 5. The Nsa Also Highlights The Significant Impact Of Teachers' Pedagogical Practices On Children's Learning. The Cpd Training Programs Aim To Help Teachers Continuously Enhance Their Skills And Professional Capacities, Thereby Facilitating An Effective Teaching-learning Process In The Classroom And Helping Students Achieve The Expected Learning Outcomes. However, There Is No Recent Studies Conducted To Understand How Effective The Cpd Programme Is In Imparting The Required Skills For Teachers. A Cpd Study Was Done During The First Year Of Pedp4 As A Part Of Developing The Cpd Farmwork.  The Development Of The Cpd Framework Based On The Cpd Study Was A Disbursement Linked Indicator (dli) (dli Target 3.2) Of Pedp4 In Year 1. As A Part Of The Process, All Dlis Are Verified To See Whether All Activities Are Completed As Per The Verification Protocol. The Verification Findings Are Documented In A Result Verification Report (rvr). The Rvr Of The Dli Target 3.2 Reported That The Cpd Study Mainly Looked Into The Current Situation And Cpd Needs. However, As Documented In The Rvr, The Study Had A Number Of Issues In Terms Of Internal Consistency, Relevance And Feasibility. The Rvr Recommended To Undertake A Comprehensive Cpd Effectiveness Study Taking The Global Experiences And Lesson Learnt Into Consideration. In Year 4 Of Pedp4, There Was Another Dli (dli Target 3.3) On The Implementation Of The Cpd Plan. Following The Verification Process, A Joint Consultative Meeting (jcm, 8th) Was Held On 27 March 2023 To Convey The Development Partners’ (dps) Assessment On The Verified Dli Targets. The Jcm Also Emphasized Conducting A Cpd Effectiveness Study, Which Was Agreed As One Of The Priority Actions In The Jcm Record Of Discussion (rod). Moreover, The Pedp4 Is Going To Be Completed In June 2025; And The Ministry Of Primary And Mass Education (mopme) Has Already Started The Discussion On The Next Sector Programme. This Design Of The Next Sector Programme Typically Includes Several Studies To Stocktake Overall Situation And Performance Of The Sector. The Findings Of The Studies Will Inform The Decisions On Different Aspects Of The Sector. The Cpd Effectiveness Study Can Be Considered As One Of The Design Studies That Will Contribute To How Teacher Development Interventions Will Be Strengthened In The Following Programme.   Objectives The Objective Of This Assignment Is To Support Dpe In Carrying Out A Study To Understand The Process Of Planning, Designing And Delivering The Cpd Training Programmes As Well As To Gather Evidence On The Extent To Which Teachers Are Able To Reflect Their Learning In Pedagogical Practices In Classroom.

Columbian Way, Seattle, Wa 98108 contract Title. Cryoablation Machine Rental & Technician Services background. the Center's Mission Is To Be Able To Treat Veterans With Kidney And Renal Tumors. Cryoablation Is A Less Invasive Way To Treat Tumors. Cryoablation Is A Process That Uses Extreme Cold (cryo) To Destroy Or Damage Tissue (ablation). Cryoablation Is Used In A Variety Of Clinical Applications Using Hollow Needles (cryoprobes) Through Which Cooled, Thermally Conductive, Fluids Are Circulated. Cryoprobes Are Inserted Into Or Placed Adjacent To Tissue Which Is Determined To Be Diseased In Such A Way That Ablation Will Provide Correction Yielding Benefit To The Patient. When The Probes Are In Place, The Cryogenic Freezing Unit Removes Heat ("cools") From The Tip Of The Probe And By Extension From The Surrounding Tissues.
