Description

The Rwanda Quality Basic Education for Human Capital Development (RQBEHCD) is a World Bank Group financed project through the government of Rwanda to support Mathematics and Science teachers from upper primary and lower secondary schools. The project was confirmed in 2019 and initiated in 2020. The dataset deposited here comprises two types of data; (1) teacher performance scores per subject taught [Math (for both primary and secondary school teachers), Physics, Chemistry, Biology taught in secondary, and Science and Elementary Technology (SET) taught in upper primary school], (2) teacher belief scores. The data were collected before and after a continuous profession development (CPD) training program of five months starting from March to July 2023. The training program comprised four channels that are ICT integration in teaching math and science, content knowledge (SCK), Math and Science laboratory activities, and innovative pedagogy. The data are collected from seven districts of Rwanda that were involved in the second cohort of training (2022-2023).
