Abstract

This paper is generally concerned with the outcomes of the workshop conducted under the project program with the cooperation of Kansai University, Japan and United Nation Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) in respect of quality improvement of Palestinian refugees’ schools (UNRWA schools) in Syria. The workshop aims to support UNRWA in order to promote ICT with Learner Centered Approach (LCA) in Palestinian refugees’ school teaching-learning practices. In the workshop, problem-based learning and collaborative learning approaches were employed as LCA. And Japanese good practical lessons using ICT with LCA in “integrated study” period were introduced to the teachers. The teachers who attended the workshop needed to understand ICT with LCA and apply it to their classes. This study clarified, as an initial finding, the effect of the workshop training --- if they applied what they learned in the workshop in practice.
