In January we plan to begin our first official course for in-service teachers at the Timothy Centre.
Face-to-face sessions will be held for 10 days during each of the school holiday months (January, May and September) and we will be able to use the facilities of Timothy Girls’s (College) High School while students are on break. Teachers will work on course assignments and research during the school terms. The four modules in this certificate course will be: Biblical Worldview, Christian Philosophy of Education, Biblical Based Curriculum and Methodology.
Yesterday we were able to meet with the Vice-Chancellor and Dean of Education at Uganda Christian University (Mukono) just outside of Kampala. They were very open to collaborating with us and our hope is that eventually our program could receive accreditation with them. We were also invited to conduct a workshop on biblical worldview and integration for the faculty next year, as well as to provide input into the Faculty of Education courses to strengthen the teaching of biblical worldview. God is putting the vision for Christian Education on many hearts here and it is exciting to meet people with whom we can work!
