teacher’s training

(Office of Her Majesty, Press Department - Amman) People never stop learning – and not even teachers are exempt from that maxim. Thanks to a series of meetings between Her Majesty Queen Rania Al Abdullah, President Lee Bollinger of Columbia University, and President Susan Fuhrman of Columbia's Teachers College, as well as Her Majesty's visits to Columbia University, 12 Jordanian teachers will participate in a teachers' training program at Columbia University this summer where they will have the chance to learn some new techniques to bring back to their classrooms.

(Office of Her Majesty, Press Department - Amman) In her continuous efforts to promote original opportunities for the Kingdom's teachers and access to innovation in all classrooms, Her Majesty Queen Rania Al Abdullah launched the Arab Innovative Teachers Forum. Over 150 teachers from Algeria, Bahrain, Egypt, Iraq, Jordan, Kuwait, Lebanon, Libya, Morocco, Qatar, the UAE and Tunisia came together to exchange experiences and best practices to learn how to develop a lesson plan using multimedia.
