The Teacher Guidebook and Model Lesson Plans book will help instructors teach Peace, Values and History most specifically the genocide against the Tutsi history in Rwanda.<\/p>\n

The books were developed by the Aegis Trust under the Memorandum of Understanding with REB. The MoU was signed following the integration of Peace and Values Education in the newly revised Competence Based Curriculum.<\/p>\n

Under the new curriculum, teachers are requested to train students on embracing peace, harmony, love and history of Rwanda as well as preventing the genocide from recurrence anywhere in the World. <\/p>\n

AEGIS Trust Director of Programmes, Anita Kayirangwa said that the books will help teachers implement new curriculum that requires them to teach peace and values in all subjects.<\/p>\n

\u201cPeace and Values have been integrated in the curriculum, but, were not given particular hours on the schedule, it was difficult to teachers to integrate them in subjects like Mathematics. So, those materials were developed to help them integrated those lessons in all subjects,\u201d Kayirangwa said.<\/p>\n

REB Director General, Dr. Ir\u00e9n\u00e9e Ndayambaje said that the organization has been facilitating them to teach peace, love and values and has become a channel through which the country would become abundantly secure.<\/p>\n

\u201cThose books will help us teach history of Rwanda, lessons which seek to promote culture of peace and genocide prevention from anywhere in the World,\u201d he said. <\/p>\n

Teachers who spoke to IGIHE said that the books will help them integrate Peace and Values studies in unrelated subjects.<\/p>\n

\u201cThose materials are well-prepared to enable us teach Peace and Values studies in all subjects, which we were not knowledgeable about before. The books will guide us on how to merge the disciplines,\u201d said Rachel Umutesi, a teacher at Gisozi II in Gasabo District.<\/p>\n

Claver Gatabazi, the Director of Education and Fight Against the Genocide in the National Commission for the Fight Against the Genocide (CNLG) said that the books are in line with the commission\u2019s curriculum to fight against genocide ideology in schools.<\/p>\n
