About the Role
Instructional Design Associates are based in Boston, Nairobi, Hyderabad, Kigali, and Lagos. This is a full-time role based in Nairobi, but will likely include remote collaboration with teams overseas.
As an Instructional Design Associate, you join a team working to make a difference in the world. In the markets we serve, the number of pupils attending school is soaring, but the quality of most schools, according to international experts, is low. Writers join our Instructional Design department to invest time in producing quality learning materials to improve thousands of children’s daily academic experience.
One core tenet of our approach to instruction at NewGlobe is providing extensive opportunities for pupil practice. That is, we’re trying to make the pupil experience less “rote.” We create “teacher guides” (daily lesson plans delivered by e-reader), textbooks, and other materials with that goal in mind — all as a means to improving learning gains among pupils.
What You Will Do
Create detailed lesson plans based on national syllabi and other sources for all subjects in several territories under the guidance of a supervisor with instructional expertise
Edit lesson materials (lesson plans, textbooks, exams) to ensure they are free of errors and inconsistencies
Participate in ongoing pedagogical training in instructional design
On occasion design and write passages, questions, and activities for our textbooks
