During the Technical Learning Visit<\/i> of Honduras to Chile, organized by SUMMA through its KIX LAC Center, with the support of the International Development Research Centre (IDRC, Canada) and the Global Partnership for Education (GPE), technical teams and managers of SUMMA, the Embassy of Honduras in Chile and the Ministry of Education of Chile, received the delegation of the Ministry of Education of Honduras, led by the Minister of Education, Daniel Esponda, the Director of Curriculum and Evaluation, Ana Mirian Lopez; and the Deputy Director General of Research, Esthefani Cerrato. The visit took place between September 04 and 08, 2023. <\/span><\/p>\n

The objective of the meeting was for the Honduran representatives to learn first-hand about the initiatives, programs and educational policies that have been effective in the Chilean education system. Chile was considered as the host country, considering that in recent decades it has made a great effort to strengthen the professional development of teachers, articulated with curricular updating processes. Likewise, Chile is advancing in the processes of prioritizing emergency curricula and updating curricula for technical-professional education, articulated with teacher training processes in the context of the framework of the <\/span>Buena Ense\u00f1anza.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

In addition to the processes carried out by Chile<\/span> n its education system, last March during the Annual Meeting of KIX LAC, Honduras identified the opportunity to learn more about the operation of leadership programs for in-service teachers such as those carried out by the Pontificia Universidad Cat\u00f3lica de Valpara\u00edso, who were available to share the lessons learned. As a consequence of this approach, officials from the Ministry of Education requested the mechanism of the <\/span>SUMMA’s technical learning visit<\/span><\/i> through its KIX LAC Center, to initiate a collaborative relationship that could later be translated into practical processes adaptable and applicable to the Honduran context. <\/span><\/p>\n

The International Relations Office and the Centro de Perfeccionamiento, Experimentaci\u00f3n e Investigaciones Pedag\u00f3gicas of the Chilean Ministry of Education highlighted the collaborative work of Chilean and Honduran teachers since the 1950’s and how the CPEIP was the “training house for Chilean and Latin American teachers”, as the officers of this institution proudly say today. Honduran teacher training schools as well as others in the region benefited from teacher training programs whose elements are still in place today: effective initial training, adopting performance standards, introducing professional incentives, improving teacher skills, and attracting the most qualified candidates. <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Main achievements:<\/span><\/h3>\n

1) Strengthening collaboration among countries;<\/span><\/p>\n

2) Acquisition of knowledge and best practices in curricular updating processes;<\/span><\/p>\n

3) Inclusion of elements that contribute to the drive for improvement in the formulation of a solid teacher training program;<\/span><\/p>\n

4) Learning in the implementation of processes related to research, and<\/span><\/p>\n

5) Planning for capacity building of the technical teams in Honduras through the lessons learned shared by the delegation with its technical teams. <\/span><\/p>\n

6) The Honduran delegation takes on the task of adjusting the teacher profile based on the exchange of information that took place during the technical learning visit, which provided them with a clearer vision of the training strategy and the desired teacher profile, using various evaluation instruments to gather the necessary information.<\/span><\/p>\n
