SEA TEACHER STUDENT EXCHANGE PROGRAM
BACKGROUND OF THE PROGRAM
In October 2014, the Southeast Asian Ministers of Education through the SEAMEO Council adopted the SEAMEO Education Agenda or the seven priority areas for SEAMEO to work together to improve quality education in Southeast Asia. “Revitalizing Teacher Education” is one of the priority areas in achieving quality education for the region. In order to fulfill this mandate, the SEAMEO Secretariat has initiated a project titled, “Pre-Service Student Teacher Exchange in Southeast Asia (SEA-Teacher Project)”.
OBJECTIVES
The SEA-Teacher project aims to provide opportunity for pre-service student teachers from universities in Southeast Asia to have teaching experiences (practicum) in schools in other countries in Southeast Asia. Specifically, the aims of the SEA – Teacher Project are:
-
to enable the student teachers to develop their teaching skills and pedagogy.
-
to encourage the student teachers to practice their English skills.
-
to allow the student teachers to gain a broader regional and world view.
-
to expose future teachers to diverse teaching and learning situations and opportunities, and the value of flexibility.
