ICT SupportShaqa'iq Launching in Middle East Schools.

Shaqa'iq Launching in Middle East Schools. Kidz Online newsletter. Online December 2005. As part of the Palestinian and Jordan Education Initiatives, we are launching our women’s empowerment and career planning curriculum into 1,500 schools in the West Bank and Gaza as well as 100 Discovery schools in Jordan. The video series highlights successful women from various Middle Eastern countries encouraging young girls to stay in school and strive for careers. The videos also encourage men to be positive role models, providing the support women will need to increase gender equality throughout the region. The lessons are available online in both English and Arabic and are also available by ordering a binder of the materials. While designed to accompany the Arabic interviews, the materials can be a valuable addition to any life skills lesson. ... Kidz Online has provided a total solution for teachers from all Arab countries. Check out the lessons at www.Kol-Shaqaiq.org. Our Teacher’s Toolkit provides extensive lesson plans derived from the videos and step-by-step instructions for integrating Shaqa’iq into your classroom.
