Admin and Finance This third quarter we sadly said goodbye to Poe Pyit Soe who has been working as Mote Oo’s Border Administrator for four years. He is continuing his studies at Chaing Mai University, Thailand and we wish him all the best. We welcome Lin Kyaw Myo as replacement Border Administrator, and also Nyi Nyi Ko to the Yangon office as a Logistic Assistant.

This quarter’s highlight was the two day event during which Dr. Rosalie Metro, author of Mote Oo‘s Histories of Burma, recorded a demonstration history lesson to students from Total school in Yangon. She was then invited back the next day to talk at the school about her experience writing the Histories of Burma books.

The Admin, Finance and Publications Departments held a five day workshop in Mae Sot with Fiona Thompson to edit the demonstration lesson, and generally learn about video editing techniques. The video will be available in the next few months, when our new website is up. Generally, the team has been busy as usual but we healthy and happy with our work and looking forward to drier weather next quarter.

The Publications Department has had a busy quarter. We said goodbye to

our Myanmar Publications Manager May Htut Pan Moe (Pann Nee) in July.

In her place, we welcome Nila Win, who has taken over the job of managing

all Myanmar language publications. Additionally, we began a multimedia

project to add a video component to our Histories of Burma textbook. It will

be released online by the end of the year. In July, we printed the English

version of our life skills-related resource, Young Adult Success, which is a

book for teachers, parents and caregivers of young people. The Myanmar

language version is coming soon. Finally, only six months after it was

published we reprinted Learning Skills, which has been very, very popular,

and is being used in a number of schools and colleges around the country.

It's a great resource and we're very proud of it.

This quarter, the Curriculum Department held workshops with Bridge

University of Global Peace

The University of Global Peace was founded this year by Sayadaw

U Zawtika at the foot of Yankin Hill outside of Mandalay. The first

batch of about 70 students, both monks and laypeople, Buddhists and a

few Hindus (adherents of all religions are encouraged to join the

University), started in August with a six months long preparation period,

which focuses on English and basic research skills. In 2019 these students

will be the first ones to enroll in M.A. and PhD programs at the University.

In the programs, potential for peace in the major world religions will be

explored with the aim to lessen divides among religious lines and to

contribute to peaceful coexistence of people of different faiths.

Mote Oo's Civic and Peace Education team successfully conducted their

first peace training with a group of students and lecturers. The students

are eager to learn more about peace building and to develop their

University into a place where people of different religions and ethnicities

learn about peace together in an inclusive environment. We want to

support this vision by giving regular peace trainings in the future.

Shwe Htay Khant - Assistant Manager, Teacher Training Department

Arr lone paemingalar par shint. I am

Shwe Htay Khant. I had been teaching

young and adult learners English in

language schools for 4 years when I

started working as a teacher trainer with

Mote Oo Education in April, 2014. I am

happy to work at Mote Oo because it

provides me with new things to learn

and yes I love to explore and learn new

things. I am responsible for training

teachers around Myanmar and alongside

Thai-Myanmar border. I am also

responsible for logistics and administration of the training department,

budgeting, and networking. I have always found teaching to be interesting and

exciting in the 8 years I have taught as a profession. Observing characters of

learners in every minute and seconds during teaching is really amazing. The

more I understand them, the easier to approach them to support their

learning. That makes my teaching easier and helps the learners to learn

effectively. I am really proud of MO’s services around Myanmar as MO is

meeting the needs of non-formal education in Myanmar and strengthening its

capacity which few people focus on. I am now working as the Assistant

Manager of the Training Department in Mote Oo Education. I am excited by

our vision “all peoples of Myanmar can access quality inclusive education” for

the future.

Gray - Education Designer

Hey y’all! I started working with Mote Oo

Education last year, although I have been very familiar with the organization’s great

work since its founding in 2013. It’s been really great to be able to “peek behind the

curtain” and become a part of the processes

that allow Mote Oo to produce such enriching resources and deliver meaningful

training and workshop services!

At Mote Oo, my position as an Education

Designer is really unique. I am able to work across departments and contribute to many

different projects, including creating new teaching and learning resources, designing

and delivering relevant training and workshops, and pursuing rewarding

research, consultancies, and new projects. My work has allowed me to travel across Myanmar, and in doing so I have met with many great schools,

programs, and organizations as well as countless inspiring educators and civil

society leaders. I am also very fortunate to be able to work alongside some very talented and dedicated colleagues who are more than happy to co-create

wonderful new ideas with me!

This year has so far been a very rewarding one at Mote Oo, and I have been able to leverage my passion and expertise to empower others around the

country to improve the quality and conditions of education in their

communities. I have learned a lot from those I work – both inside Mote Oo and at our many partners – and I consider myself blessed to be able to interact

with so many inspirational people on a daily basis!

It's rare that younger students ever lose interest in general. There is always

something they are curious about; maybe just not the particular lesson you

are trying to teach. Adolescents or young adults, less so.

If they are just generally not interested in the subject, consideration about

the curriculum will have to be made. Why is this subject taught? How can

they benefit from this? What are they consequences of not knowing this?

How does this fit in the general curriculum? If there are no strong answers

to these questions, then the subject could be changed or cancelled. If there

are strong answers, students should be informed of these answers.

There should also be personalisation - make the lesson relevant and relata-

ble to students' lives. Competitions and group projects also can increase

the students' morale. There are useful and versatile activities in "Activities

for Social Science Teaching", a teacher support book available online for

free at www.moteoo.org.
