Overview of
SEAMEO Centre for Quality Improvement of Teachers and Education Personnel in Science
(QITEP in Science)
Background
In today’s era of globalization we find there is competition within every aspect of life, including the improvement of knowledge and technology, especially with information technology.
This has led to a need for providing quality education and being innovative in content and delivery to stay competitive.
The priority should focus on the quality of the education the students receive in order to compete with developed countries. To achieve this education and competency of the teachers and education personnel needs to be improved to align with the professional level across the globe.
The competition strategy set up with the developed countries is to strengthen the cooperation of science teacher and education personnel amongst ASEAN (Association of South East Asian Nations) countries. This should be conducted by sharing experience and skill to establish the best (competitive) science quality in ASEAN itself. This aligns with, ” ASEAN as a concert of Southeast Asian nations, outward looking, living in peace, stability and prosperity, bonded together in cooperation in dynamic development and in a community of caring societies.”
In order to improve the quality of science teachers and supporting education personnel in South East Asia, it is important to strengthen the existing science organisation and cooperate with other science training organization in South East Asia.
