The Lagos State Government is to train, equip and engage 18,000 of its teachers electronically during the COVID-19 lockdown.

Mrs Folasade Adefisayo, the state Commissioner for Education, who revealed this, said the training in collaboration with Microsoft Office, represented by ATB Techsoft Solutions, would commence from Monday, April 27, 2020 and is tagged: “Work- From -Home, Remote Teaching and Learning for Lagos State Secondary School Teachers.”

Adefisayo said the initiative involves digital training, mentoring, observation, creating and sharing subject-specific content, accessing interactive classes from mobile phones and devices, diagnosing and understanding learning needs and challenges, assigning homework, giving feedbacks and auto-grading of quizzes/tests remotely and internal stakeholders engagement.

She said Lagos teachers and schools would gain some salient benefits from the programme as the training would have huge mileage on the overall technology transformation of the school system in the state.

Mrs Elizabeth Ariyo, the Chairman, Lagos State Teaching Service Commission (TESCOM ), in her remarks, noted the highly robust course content and its sustainability on the long-term as part of Microsoft Office Corporate Social Responsibility ( CSR).

Ariyo said the programme is easily accessible via mobile smartphones, Web browsers and robust platform for up to 1 million students, teachers and officials.

She commended the efforts of Microsoft Office through its representative, ATB Techsoft Solutions, in utilising the stay at home period to equip, train and engage secondary schools teachers.

“It will also enhance teachers performances in discharging their duties of imparting knowledge in the younger generations through the use of technology which is in line with the Education and Technology Pillar in the THEMES Agenda of Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu’s administration and vision for teaching and learning in 21st Century Lagos,” Ariyo said.

In her remarks, Mrs Toyin Awoseyi, the Permanent Secretary, TESCOM, expressed optimism that the laudable concept and initiative would enable teachers to discover the right digital skills, new mindsets, and behavioural skills appropriate in the new learning ecosystem for better students perform and global acceptance in their academics.

Awoseyi urged teachers and other participants to take the programme seriously, and utilize the opportunities to its fullest while assuring that the state government will not relent in its commitment to improving the standard of teaching and learning outcomes in the state.
