Projects
The program is delivered through two subjects which are part of the government-mandated curriculum: Integrated Practice class and Reading class. Both are non-tested subjects and as relatively new introductions to the elementary school curriculum in China, they do not have set textbooks or teaching methods. Thus, they afford the opportunity for educational innovators to develop a curriculum design framework that teachers can use to tailor the content of these subjects to their local situations.
RCEF supports rural teachers in China to design, implement, and document their teaching in the hopes of sharing useful experiences that can help more rural educators in China successfully deliver this kind of curriculum.
