Global Teach Connection Modules (GTCM)

GTC Instructional Development Framework

All dimensions of the GTC framework specifically support the UN SDGs 4 Quality Education and SDG 5 Gender Equity. We believe solutions to these problems are connected to our teaching and learning systems. Teachers and policymakers are at the center of our educational systems. The GTC project has use research to produce three modules as an open educational resource to support developing global teaching competencies to improve the access to ad quality of education.
