Title: | The Bhutan Multigrade Attachment Program | Contributor(s): | Ninnes, Peter Martin (author) | Publication Date: | 2004 | Handle Link: | https://hdl.handle.net/1959.11/4103 | Abstract: | The Bhutan Multigrade Attachment Program (BMAP) is a professional development program run by the University of New England in partnership with the Ministry of Education of the Royal Government of Bhutan. The program aims to enhance Bhutanese educators' knowledge of and skills in multi-grade (MG) teaching techniques in primary schools. I have been involved in this program since 1998 as a lecturer/ presenter, and since 2002 as the coordinator of the program. In this chapter I describe the origins, characteristics and developments of the program over the last ten years, and outline the philosophical underpinnings to the partnership. I also take the opportunity to reflect on the program's effectiveness as a professional development model. | Publication Type: | Conference Publication | Conference Details: | Second International Multigrade Teaching Conference: Turning Biases into Benefits, Bangkok, Thailand, September 8 - September 11, 2004 | Source of Publication: | Proceedings of the Second International Multigrade Teaching Conference: Turning Biases into Benefits, p. 125-136 | Publisher: | University of New England, Centre for Research on Education in Context | Place of Publication: | Armidale, Australia | Fields of Research (FoR) 2008: | 130303 Education Assessment and Evaluation | Socio-Economic Objective (SEO) 2008: | 930203 Teaching and Instruction Technologies | HERDC Category Description: | E2 Non-Refereed Scholarly Conference Publication | Publisher/associated links: | http://trove.nla.gov.au/work/25162846?selectedversion=NBD41102648 |
