A synergy between the State, the private sector and international cooperation that promotes a more modern and inclusive educationWith the support of TikTok Latin America, Peru promotes a new way of teaching and learning through digital language that connects with millions of young people
In a commitment to pedagogical innovation and digital transformation, the Ministry of Education (Minedu) presented the virtual course Learn on TikTok: Program for teachers, developed together with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MRE), through its APEC Citizen initiative, TikTok Latin America and the STEM+ Movement (science, technology, engineering and mathematics).
The program will benefit six thousand teachers from across the country, who will receive training scholarships in the pedagogical use of TikTok and in the creation of educational digital content that inspires their students. The objective is to strengthen the technological skills of teachers and promote the creative, safe and responsible use of digital platforms to improve learning.
TikTok is today one of the most used platforms in Peru and 93% of users claim to be able to express themselves freely through this social network. Globally, more than 66,000 videos are created per minute, making it a powerful and dynamic educational tool.
For this reason, the course Learn on TikTok: Program for teachers, which already has 25,000 teachers registered in Latin America, seeks to help teachers take advantage of their potential to transform learning, connect education with the languages of their students and promote creativity in a safe, close and fun way.
The course is structured into six modules that range from digital literacy, network security and audiovisual communication, to the production of educational content on TikTok. Each participant must create an educational video that reflects what they learned. In addition, diagnostic and final evaluations will be applied to measure the progress and impact of the program.
The collaboration of TikTok representatives is key to the development of this innovative program that seeks to connect teachers with relevant and inspiring content adapted to new forms of communication and learning, in which technology becomes a pedagogical tool to connect with students from their own digital environment.
The launch featured the participation of the representatives of TikTok Latin America, Gabriel Parra and Laura Reyna; and Graciela Rojas, founder and president of the STEM+ Movement.
Peru is training a new generation of digital teachers: creative, committed and capable of connecting with their students from the language of the future. With them, education is reinvented, it becomes more alive, closer and more inspiring than ever.
