On behalf of UNESCO and UNICEF, you are kindly invited to participate in the UNICEF-UNESCO Webinar Series on Learning Recovery Beyond COVID-19. As schools reopen across the Asia-Pacific region, UNESCO and UNICEF have joined hands to organize a series of webinars to inform, engage and provide tools for government and sector experts to support their COVID-19 education recovery efforts.
Our first webinar in the series is on the Critical Role of Formative Assessment for Learning Recovery.
Please note that to allow for wider participation, it has moved to 25 January 2022, 15:30-17:00pm Bangkok time (GMT+7).
(Free) registration for the webinar is required: https://unicef.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_zm5cMvnATB6hFdGnEwyhDA .
Once you register, a unique link to join the webinar will be sent to your email.
We would appreciate it if you could share this invitation widely within your networks.
The webinar will cover how teachers can use formative assessment to remediate learning loss, ensure children are learning at the right level, improve learning outcomes and prevent dropout. It will feature country examples of good practice from across the Asia Pacific region, from India, Kazakhstan, Pakistan, the Philippines and Sri Lanka, as well as speakers from UNICEF and UNESCO.
For background reading, please see the UNESCO report, Reimaging our Futures Together, and UNICEF’s Formative Assessment Guidance for Teachers.
