Educational & Health Development
Africa Crossroads will work with the local schools and educational facilities to assist them in teacher training and curriculum development. The plan is to hold teacher workshops to introduce teachers to new curriculum, technology, teaching strategies and activities and to demonstrate how to apply these in the classroom. Other areas such as class room management, discipline plans, parent-teacher, and teacher-student relations will be addressed as well. Another aspect of this ministry will be to develop a resource service for educators. This service
will advise and assist in the development and implementation of curriculum, teacher-in-service, and continuing education, the latter not currently required of Botswana teachers. This service will be available for local teachers as well as for missionary parents who are teaching their own children.
A future goal is to have motivational and educational speakers from the US and other countries present workshops for the local teachers and administrators. Since Botswana permits Biblical teaching and prayer in the classroom, all development and training will be from a Biblical world view.
