All curricula include a learner booklet, a detailed PDF that outlines all lessons based on topics.

The learner booklet ((EN) Android example here) is a detailed pdf (~50 pages or more, depending on electives). We recommend partners print and spiral bind and provide a booklet to each learner. It includes:

  • Cover (partner logos and funding statements can be added upon request)
  • Table of contents
  • Lessons grouped into sections based on topic
  • Review page (checklist of skills they should have acquired)
  • AnyDesk and QuickSupport instructions (recommended for partners who will do remote training/support)
  • Accounts info page (to write down usernames and passwords)
  • Notes page

The trainer guide ((EN) Android example here) is a pdf; it includes each page of the learner booklet with detailed notes for the instructor underneath. These notes include suggestions for how to teach the lesson, such as review, practice or homework activities, links to videos or articles providing more advanced information on a topic, and tips. We highly recommend purchasing the trainer package if new or inexperienced trainers will be working on a project; they can use the guide to help prepare for a lesson and guide their work. If multiple trainers are working on a program, the trainer guide helps to standardize the instruction. The trainer guide is provided in English, even if a partner is purchasing multiple languages.
