Radio Education

This document will assist you through the Interactive Audio Instruction (IAI) adaptation process by highlighting key considerations and suggesting solutions to common challenges. Its contents will help you define the parameters you will need to work within during this adaptation.

This article highlights and advises on the issues that relate to adapting and updating previously developed Interactive Audio Instruction programs, including how to orient current audiences to listen and learn in new ways.

Eighteen Bangladeshi Community Radio Broadcasters have started broadcasting program on Coronavirus Education for the rural people about the virus and the precautionary measures needed to escape the infection for making aware since March 01, 2020.

In 2014, an outbreak of the Ebola virus in Liberia caused daily life to grind to a halt. People lived in quarantine for months. Schools closed. In response to this health crisis, EDC’s USAID Advancing Youth Project adapted a set of literacy and numeracy interactive audio instruction lessons for radio broadcast.

The experiences documented in this publication show that the practice of effectively integrating ICTs into the teaching and learning of literacy and numeracy is not a simple one-step process.

The idea is for children to continue learning in some alternative and cost-effective way during the Ebola outbreak, in particular during the school closure period. If children continue learning, it will be easier for them to catch up once schools reopen.

To our knowledge, there is no precedence in the organization of the use of radio education programs as an education in emergencies response. This guidance note is the result of a brief search and consultation; it is not exhaustive but seeks to serve as a basis for discussion and program development.

The impact of mass media interventions (including radio) is mixed. Systematic review evidence points to small to medium impacts on knowledge outcomes and reduction of a limited set of high-risk behaviors. The systematic literature focuses on health multi-component interventions often implemented in low to middle-income settings.

This document provides guidance for program and managers who may be interested in using IAI for early childhood development programming. it provides solid evidence for the viability of the IAI approach and outlines the process for designing and implementing an IAI program specifically for early childhood contexts.

This study analyzes the RISE and ZTUR projects and: 1) To what extent have the ZTUR and RISE Project activities been sustained or expanded under the leadership of MoEVT after the projects were transferred in March 2011? 2) Do learners that participated in IAI (Tucheze Tujifunze) programming perform higher at the end of their primary cycle than those that did not participate?

This guidance is part of a series to support you during the Covid-19 crisis.

The purpose of this review, produced by USAID's Data and Evidence in Education Programs (DEEP) activity, is to provide evidence on four effective distance learning modalities that can be implemented in USAID-recipient countries during and beyond emergencies.
