Job Title: Specialist, Instructional Design

Location: Lagos

About The Role

• As a specialist, you join a team working to make a difference in the world. In the markets we serve, the number of pupils attending school is soaring, but the quality of most schools, according to international experts, is low. Writers join our Instructional Design department to invest time in producing quality learning materials to improve thousands of children’s daily academic experience.
• One core tenet of our approach to instruction at NewGlobe is providing extensive opportunities for pupil practice. That is, we’re trying to make the pupil experience less “rote.” We create “teacher guides” (daily lesson plans delivered by e-reader), textbooks, and other materials as a means to improving learning gains among pupils. We also create innovative resources for learning outside the classroom, in the form of radio programs, digital storybooks, activity packs, and downloadable learning guides.

What You Will Do

• Develop Hausa language courses for primary school pupils, based on the state syllabus and approved textbooks
• Write detailed lesson plans, following NewGlobe standards and templates, with guidance from a supervisor with instructional expertise.
• Write Hausa language assessments.
• Support on Hausa language translation and other miscellaneous projects within Instructional Design or with other Academics departments.

What You Should Have

• A commitment to increasing educational quality and access in Nigeria and a belief in the power of scripted lessons
• 2+ years of experience working in education in Nigeria (2+ years teaching preferred)
• Expert-level fluency (written and verbal) in Hausa language and English; advanced study of Hausa language strongly preferred
• Strong writing and editing skills.
• Flexibility, ability to process and respond to new information quickly, and excellent attention to detail.
• Excellent planning skills, commitment to meeting deadlines, and the ability to work independently with minimal supervision.
• Demonstrated instructional design experience strongly preferred.
