About Us
The Myanmar Teacher Platform is a safe, secure and inclusive space for teachers, teacher educators, and student teachers who believe in the power of quality education to change lives. The platform consists of:
1. An E-learning platform offering free courses through synchronous and asynchronous learning, where learners also have the opportunity to interact with each other via discussion forums. Learners can also gain certificate on the completion of the selected courses.
2. An E-library containing over 200 electronic resources in various digital formats (E-books, videos, etc.). The E-library is integrated with the E-learning platform and thus helps learners to experience an organized and innovative mode of learning.
3. Blogs connected to the Myanmar Teacher Competency Standards Framework (MTCSF) and the Teachers in Crisis Contexts (TiCC) Training Pack and resources from across the MTP. The blog posts will be updated every week, providing you opportunities to help overcome challenges, gain insights into your professional development, and empower you to achieve your professional goals.
4. Groups in which you can discuss your opinions related to weekly-updated blog articles and exchange your views and experiences with your fellow teachers or even with experienced teachers. These groups also enable you to extend your professional network and promote peer learning.
Many of the resources on Myanmar Teacher Platform are customized to the context of the country, whilst ensuring adherence to international good practices. While the platform is primarily targeted at educators and learners in Myanmar, it will enable all users to continue with their education and/or continuing professional development.
Myanmar Teacher Platform is being implemented by UNESCO, with support from the Government of Finland. The initial version of the platform was funded by the Governments of Australia, Finland and the United Kingdom. UNESCO initiated efforts to enhance the functionality of the existing platform to allow for a better user-experience. Myanmar Teacher Platform now has a wider range of tools and capabilities better suited to the needs and context of users in Myanmar.
Contact UsFrequently Asked Questions
-
Is the MTP mobile app secure?
Yes. All critical information like password is encrypted in every transaction run through. No personal information is stored on your mobile device and
just stored the publicly published resource files if you enabled “Offline” mode and downloaded the files.
-
Is my phone/device supported to install the MTP mobile app?
MTP mobile app supports Android 5 and above, preferably Android above 8 to support all the features. For iOS, it also supports iOS 12.0 or later as well.
-
Can we run the MTP app in Windows or Windows store?
In Windows, you can use browser to access the MTP website or download as a Progressive Web Apps (PWA) once this option is available after turning on the “Offline” mode. However, kindly note that MTP app is not published in Windows store yet.
-
How is the performance of the app? Is it bugs free, ads free, free from crashing and freezing regardless of the android/ IOS version?
It is bugs free and free from crashing and freezing as well but needs at least Android 8 and iOS 12 and/or later versions. It’ll be ads free as MTP will always offer free courses and will not raise profits by embedding the related ads to the apps.
-
Why is there no profile picture in the registration and account section for iOS?
It has been considered by Apple that MTP was not a social networking app, so profile should not be requested from a user.
-
How strong the connectivity has to be? Does it work in 3G network well?
There are participants in the pilot testing from some areas where they can access 3G network most of the time and they could use the app though the loading was slow.
-
Can third party users collaborate on MTP? For example, https://sayarkyaung.com/ enable content creators to subscribe to the platform on the basis of subscription fees and serve as a medium for teaching and learning. Will MTP also accommodate such services?
Till now, only UNESCO staffs can create and collaborate the certified courses on MTP and some plans for the 3rd party users to collaborate in the future have been considered. As our priority is on the learners first, the mobile apps offers the features for the learners and the course owners/instructors can only apply the web version to create and publish courses. And, the scope will extend from time to time to offer a platform that fully supports both learners and teachers eventually.
Regarding the subscription fees and services, it’s possible to implement and accommodate them technically but MTP will be a free learning platform offering resources and courses with no cost.
