In order to plan and implement lessons that will be effective for a wide variety of learners, teachers must assess what students know and how they know it.

We highlight three strategies we use to help teachers refine their understanding of individual students:
(a) building teachers’ skills in observing without making judgements; (b) teaching teachers to use a shared, neurodevelopmental framework through which to view …

Social Studies/History Curricula In Ghana, Razak Dwomoh
2018 Awards for Excellence in Student Research and Creative Activity – Documents
Abstract
This research will examine how social studies developed within the curricula within Ghana. I will report this in USA and juxtapose with Ghana and other post-colonial African countries.

It is noted that majority of students at tertiary levels in Ghana would find it difficult to give detail information about Ghana’s history and Ghana’s historical place in the world when probed. Six post-colonial African countries’ social studies/history curricula are examined on the …
