Generating Leaders for Curriculum Management in Times of Pandemic

Abstract

Curricular changes and their implementation in educational institutions represent a great responsibility for educational managers, where their leadership must ensure educational achievements in the processes. This situation poses a great challenge that requires preparation, permanent updating sessions and working days for teacher empowerment. The objective of this research is to establish the effect of the training intervention program for curriculum management in public preschool institutions. We undertook an applied research and the design was experimental. We developed three non-face-to-face processes or treatments for a one year period. Observation cards with rubrics were used, validated by experts and with a very high level of reliability. The study population consisted of principals of public educational institutions who belonged to the Local Educational Management Unit 07-Lima Metropolitan, Peru. The results showed progressive and positive effects in each curriculum management treatment, strengthening the principals’ competencies regarding planning, assessment, pedagogical accompaniment and learning communities.
