Madagascar Workshop - 21st Century Skills

Project: Empowering Learners Through Accessible Educational Resources

Objective: To design and deliver an engaging workshop that empowers educators and learners by demystifying and providing direct access to high-quality, complimentary resources. The session aimed to bridge resource gaps and promote active, skill-based learning in verbal, written, and reading domains.

My Role: Instructional Designer & Resource Curator

I was responsible for the end-to-end development and delivery of this initiative, from researching and curating a repository of free tools to designing the interactive learning experience itself.

Key Contributions & Process:

• Resource Curation & Framework Development:

  • Researched, evaluated, and compiled a diverse portfolio of vetted, complimentary educational resources, including digital tools, open-access platforms, and physical materials like brochures and leaflets.

  • Formulated a practical framework to help participants systematically identify, evaluate, and integrate these resources into their own learning or teaching practices for sustained educational advancement.

• Interactive Presentation Design:

  • Crafted and delivered a dynamic presentation that moved beyond theory to provide actionable strategies for utilizing free resources to create engaging verbal, written, and reading exercises.

  • Authored targeted discussion prompts and hands-on activities to stimulate critical thinking, allowing participants to immediately apply the framework to their specific contexts and share insights collaboratively.
