Introduction

The Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH is a federally owned international cooperation enterprise for sustainable development with worldwide operations. GIZ has worked in Rwanda for over 30 years. The primary objectives between the Government of Rwanda and the Federal Republic of Germany are poverty reduction and promotion of sustainable development. To achieve these objectives, GIZ Rwanda is active in the sectors of Decentralization and Good Governance, Economic Development and Employment Promotion, Energy and ICT (Information and Communications Technology).

1.General Context of Eco-Emploi 2020 - 2022

Over the last decade, Rwanda has experienced robust economic growth. However, the rate of unemployment and underemployment is still high, especially in the context of recovering from the Covid-19 pandemic. With strategies like the National Strategy for Transformation (NST 1) and the Private Sector Development and Youth Employment Strategy (PSDYES), the Government of Rwanda is promoting skills development and the creation of off-farm jobs. The bilateral programme for the “Promotion of Economy and Employment (Eco-Emploi)”, commissioned by the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) and implemented by GIZ as part of the priority area “Sustainable Economic Development” of the Rwandan-German Development Cooperation, is supporting these efforts.

Eco-Emploi incorporates an integrated approach of Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET), Labour Market Interventions (LMI), and Private Sector Development (PSD) and is being implemented by GIZ between January 2020 and December 2022. The programme aims at employment-intensive growth in selected economic sectors, namely the wood industry, tourism & hospitality, and film industry, with a special focus on digitalization. The economic empowerment of women, youth, and people with disabilities are a crosscutting effort in all activities of the programme. Eco-Emploi works towards achieving SDG 1 "No poverty", SDG 4 "High-quality education", SDG 5 "Gender equality" and SDG 8 "Decent work and economic growth”.

2.Rationale of the Assignment

Since March 2020, the Covid-19 pandemic has not only heavily affected the Rwandan economy but also the Rwandan education sector. Intermittent lockdowns and subsequent closure of schools, including TVET schools, has shown the need for accelerated development of digital learning solutions, the build-up of IT-infrastructure and the procurement of devices for teachers, staff and students such as laptops, tablets and smartphones. It is important to note, that the digitalisation in the education sector had started before the Covid-19 pandemic and will be a crucial driver for the development of the sector independently of the future course of the pandemic. To address potential lockdowns, but also to prepare Rwanda Polytechnic (RP) for the future of teaching and learning, RP and Eco-Emploi have started discussions to digitalise content of the automobile mechanic curriculum level 6, which was chosen because it is taught at many colleges and therefore suitable as a pilot curriculum to test this digitalisation approach. The content is supposed to support blended learning as well as asynchronous e-learning, meaning that digitalised parts of the curriculum can be studied completely online and self-paced if necessary (e.g. lockdown situations) but ideally should be integrated with subsequent face-to-face learning (blended learning) in line with the RP blended learning strategy.

3.Objective of the assignment

The general objective of this assignment is to digitalise the content (including formative and summative assessments) of the module “AUTME601 Maintain Engine” of the curriculum “Automobile Mechanic Specialist at RTQF Level 6” and upload it on RP-s Moodle-based e-learning platform. The development will be supported by RP-s e-learning wing “Africa Digital Media Academy (ADMA)” and selected TVET Trainers from different IPRCs who teach this curriculum. This module will be a pilot for a blended learning training by RP and is intended to serve as an example for future digitalisation projects of TVET content. As such it must showcase a variety of different methodologies and the integration of various multimedia content.
