Job Description

NewGlobe is growing and developing fast. The organization has been on a journey from proof-of-concept community school programs, to participating in national multi-partner public-private partnerships, acting as technical service delivery partners to statewide programs at scale, and ultimately supporting national government transformation programs. NewGlobe was founded in 2007. In 2009 it opened its first community school program, Bridge International Academies, Kenya. Over the next six years, it grew across the country, opening community schools in the majority of Kenya’s counties, and becoming recognized globally for the Bridge International Academies model. In 2015, NewGlobe expanded its community school Bridge programming into new territories – Uganda and Nigeria. It also entered students into Kenya’s national end of primary exit exams (KCPE) for the first time. NewGlobe expanded beyond Africa in 2016

About the Role 

Instructional Design Associates are based in Boston, Nairobi, Hyderabad, Kigali, and Lagos. This is a full-time role based in Nairobi, but will likely include remote collaboration with teams overseas.

As an Instructional Design Associate, 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 with that goal in mind — all as a means to improving learning gains among pupils.

What You Will Do

  • Create detailed lesson plans based on national syllabi and other sources for all subjects in several territories under the guidance of a supervisor with instructional expertise
  • Edit lesson materials (lesson plans, textbooks, exams) to ensure they are free of errors and inconsistencies
  • Participate in ongoing pedagogical training in instructional design
  • On occasion design and write passages, questions, and activities for our textbooks
  • Learn and apply aspects of print production in the form of writing art specs and styling manuscripts
  • Jump into new, unusual projects with other Academics or Instructional Design team

What You Should Have 

  • One or more years of experience in education, editing, or writing
  • A bachelor’s degree
  • Fluency in English
