Incentives for Teachers

Incentive plans are proposed to be by KHouse. Their objective is to jumpstart teachers in Who-Am-I? to avoid delays due to fear of technology, and of being visible to peers and outsiders on the Internet.

The incentive plans will differ by year depending on the plans contents and strategic needs. Below, we have outlined a typical plan for year 1:

An award by Who-Am-I? module when the following criteria are met:

  1. The teacher has

    • introduced her/himself to the other teachers in the KidCom conference for teachers in the selected language within seven days of the start of the module. The introduction must build on the format of Kidlink's four questions, and need only be done once for all modules.

    • presented his/her plan for the work with the class in this module within seven days of the start of the module.

    • sent a report of his/her module classroom experience to KidCom conference for teachers within seven days of the end of the module.

    • At least 15 students in the teacher's class must have submitted their answers to Kidlink's four questions.

  2. Students in the teacher's class must have

    • posted 4 web pages with relevant student contributions to Kidlink's Who-Am-I? web allocated to the planned language.

    • sent 20 public module related messages in the plan's language to the plan's KidCom conference for students, authored by at least 10 different students. To qualify, messages must contain either

      • reports from a student's work relating to the module activities or questions, or

      • summary reports of findings and positions from the class, or

      • module related questions and comments to students at other schools that lead to a reply from them in the conference room.

The first 20 teachers to pre-register for the award programme by module will be selected. If more than 20 register, teachers who have received the award in a previous module will get second priority. A cash award will be paid by module.

If all eligible teachers achieve their bonuses for each of the six modules, the total net effect per KHouse by the end of the first year would be:
  • 480 web pages published by students in the plan's language, in addition to those published by other participants
  • 2,400 messages submitted in students to the plan's KidCom room for students
  • 120 introductions/plans submitted to the plan's KidCom room for teachers
  • 120 reports of teachers experiences submitted to the plan's KidCom room for teachers
