The COVID-19 pandemic has affected many teachers and students, especially those who are in remote areas, and experienced difficulty with distance teaching and learning activities. This significant change causes a decrease in learning activities, memory retention, and increased school dropout rates. The lack of technology access, including access to adequate internet, coupled with the low level of digital literacy, are the main factors. In response, Hoshizora launched the Teacher Empowerment Program.
This program consists of a series of activities to develop teachers skills and abilities in remote areas of Indonesia. Activities carried out include comprehensive online learning, mentoring, peer-to-peer collaboration through the Hoshizora platform, as well as ongoing monitoring and evaluation activities. HZ also provides technology and internet support to enable teachers and educators in remote areas to carry out distance learning.
