Creative worked with the Moroccan Ministry of Education and Vocational Training to boost reading comprehension in middle schools through the Reading for Academic Skills and Individual Development in Middle Schools (RASID). O projeto foi financiado pelos EUA. Agência para o Desenvolvimento Internacional.
The eight-and-a-half month project strengthened reading comprehension in middle schools by training master trainers—including school inspectors and teacher training college instructors—on best practices to integrate effective reading comprehension instruction into existing middle school curriculum.
By implementing action plans, these master trainers trained educators nationwide and provide ongoing coaching support as teachers bring reading comprehension strategies to life in seventh to ninth grade classes.
The program ensured the instructional techniques were readily mastered by teachers and easy to implement in the classroom. Trainers, coaches and teachers received a comprehensive Arabic-language Enhanced Reading Program kit with guidebooks and materials, containing sets of activities and explicit guidance for incorporating reading instruction into the middle school curriculum, assessing student learning and creating a “reading-conducive” environment.
