Provide Teachers Manual For Support

Pitambar provides collaboratively developed open educational resources (OERs) for teachers to use in their own classroom to support active learning methods. This guide aims to support teachers to use Pitambar materials and activities in their classrooms. Pitambar materials enhance and improve teaching and focus on developing teachers’ classroom practices in the key curriculum areas of literacy, life skills.

All the Pitambar materials are open educational resources; they are free to be used by anyone either online or downloaded and printed. They can be adapted, modified, or integrated with other materials in any form. 

Pitambar materials have been written by teacher educators from different countries in Sub-Saharan Africa.
The Pitambar materials are organized into five module areas:

• Literacy
• Numeracy
• Science
• Social Studies and the Arts and Life Skills

Each module area contains 3 modules, each of which has five sections (there are seventy-five sections in total). The focus in all sections is on developing teachers’ understanding of teaching and learning and improving their schoolroom practice. There is a progression of ideas both within the five sections of each module and within each section.
