Amendments have been made to nine subjects in the curriculum of Standard 2 in the 2018-2019 academic year, according to the Mon State Department of Basic Education’s deputy director Daw Naw Tin Hla.
“There are nine subjects. Everything has been amended using the CCA (child-centered approach) including the teaching methods, appearance, and evaluation to make it better than the previous system,” Daw Naw Tin Hla told the Mon News Agency.
Children will be able to develop their critical thinking skills and learn how to cooperate with the teachers under this new curriculum.
Standard 2 teachers will have to attend training in respective states, districts, townships, and school groups.
JICA and the Education Research Bureau cooperated in drafting the new curriculum after reviewing the old curriculum, according to the Mon State Education Department.
