QUESTION Madagascar schools gearing up for the 4th Industrial Revolution More than 70 primary schools in Madagascar are now benefiting from the expertise of some 130 teachers who have been trained to detect and successfully correct learning challenges in students. The intervention, which has been reaping tremendous success, particularly in relation to the students' ability to read and write, this has resulted from the utilisation of the Lindamood-Bell Learning Teachers were also required to generate data relevant to the work environment and minimises interruption during classes. [60 Marks] The methodologies, which were initially imparted to 50 teachers in 2017, are designed to diagnose and correct language- based learning disabilities. These are now being expanded to include an additional 120 teachers, who will be trained and certified by the Creative Language-Based Learning (CLBL) Foundation. According to the Foundation's Consultant, Mary McDonald, based on a system that has been implemented to track the teachers' progress, "we have been able to see substantial increases in how the children are able to pick up the different [aspects] of reading". "So, for example, they may have little children who are not familiar with even letters and sounds, although they are expected to be at their age they have made a jump of 300 per cent in those areas, [and] in the ability to sound out words they don't know, they have increased 600 percent," she added. The consultant was speaking at a contract-signing ceremony with the Jamaica Social Investment Fund (JSIF) and CLBL on Wednesday (September 18) at JSIF's office in Kingston. Ms McDonald cited, as another example, a six-year-old girl who was unable to read when she started primary school. The teachers were tasked with monitoring students by using report cards and performance charts. The education consultant pointed out that some of the teachers who are already proficient in the Lindamood-Bell Processes have trained other educators and are going to other institutions to assist students. "So we are very proud of what the teachers have done, and we are proud to receive those 130 teachers and the thousands of children who they work with on a daily basis," Ms. McDonald said. Answer ALL the questions in this section. Question 1 (20 Marks) With reference to the case example - identify and explain the kind of training needs analysis used by Madagascar schools? Question 2 (40 Marks) There are various techniques that can be used to decipher performance and training needs. Using your module and own research, explain the various methods that may be adopted by Madagascar schools for a training needs assessment. With particular reference to the case example and using your own examples - decide which technique did the teachers use to track the performance of learners and why?
