The teacher’s guide diagnostic tool is an instrument to assess the quality of teacher’s guides in any subject in primary grades 1 through 4. The tool assesses teacher’s guides based on two sets of criteria: guide criteria, which look at the overall organization, structure, and level of scripting of the entire teacher’s guide; and lesson criteria, which look at the composition of the individual lesson layouts, structure, and general pedagogical practices. The tool assigns a numerical score to the evaluated teacher’s guide and will produce a set of recommendations that suggests specific and prioritized components for future teacher’s guide revisions.
