      Teacher Education in Sub-Saharan Africa (TESSA)

      The Teacher Education in Sub-Saharan Africa (TESSA) research and development Programme was launched at a conference in South Africa in August 2005.

      The setting up of the TESSA consortium is the result of over a decade of joint research and development activities focused on the challenge of teacher education. To bring every child into school millions of extra teachers are needed. Millions of existing teachers also need to upgrade their qualifications. High achieving learners at all levels in the school system need quality teaching. The TESSA consortium is an ambitious international initiative to help all forms of teacher education to expand and develop in ways fit for the twenty-first century.

          Introduction to Sociology

          From Wikibooks, the open-content textbooks collection

          Sociology is the study of human social life. Human social life is complex and encompasses many facets of the human experience. Because of the complexity, the discipline of sociology subdivided over time into specialty areas. The first section of this book covers the foundations of sociology, including an introduction to the discipline, the methods of study, and some of the dominant theoretical perspectives. The remaining chapters focus on the different areas of study in sociology.

            Access the MOFET ITEC Portal in Teacher Education

            MOFET ITEC (International Teacher Educators Community), an International Content Portal in teacher education, seeks to improve the flow of pedagogical knowledge and research on teacher education by helping researchers and teacher educators cope and keep abreast with the wealth of publications in the field.

            The portal's uniqueness resides in the coordinated processes of collecting, filtering, processing and distributing relevant research and non-research papers on education and teacher education within "one integrative reservoir". In addition, portal users are invited to make use of the site's reaction system and share their knowledge and insights regarding the contents presented with other users.

            The Mauritius Institute of Education receives the support of MOFET in developing and running of an Induction Programme for its newly appointed Academic staff and seeks to further consolidate this collaboration.
