Costa Rica Peace Corps A tiempo completo
Job Description
The Ministry of Public Education (MEP) in Costa Rica has requested the support of a Peace Corps Response Volunteer (PCRV) to serve as an Adult English Education Curriculum and Materials Design Specialist. In 2017, the MEP began rolling out a multiyear curricular implementation plan to introduce teachers to new lesson plans and teaching guides. A new English curriculum was developed with the support of a cohort of PCRVs, and the Peace Corps – MEP collaboration has continued growing through different initiatives. MEP has identified a need for support for the National English Advisors at the Curriculum Development Department of MEP in the implementation of the new curriculum through material and curriculum design, with a focus on secondary education.

The PCRV will collaborate closely with two counterparts from the Secondary Education Department, National Advisors from the Youth and Adult Department to produce materials and develop resources such as audios, videos, teacher tool kits, student resource kits and dialogue scripts. The PCRV will also support a variety of curriculum development initiatives through document revision and organizing resource creation workshops. The overall goal of this assignment is to support MEP to provide Costa Rican students with an updated learning model that reflects the knowledge, skills, and abilities required to succeed as a citizen in the 21st century.

Candidates selected for this position will be arriving in Costa Rica together as a group, so while the departure dates for the whole group could change, dates cannot be changed for individual candidates.

Required Skills

• BA or MA in Education, preferably with a focus on curriculum/instruction.

• BA plus 3 or more years of relevant experience, including teaching and curriculum development, and teacher certification/license or MA plus 2 or more years of relevant experience.

• Specialized experience in one of the following areas: Adult English Education, Vocational English Education, or Special Education.
