To understand how CBC was marketed to the mindukras, let's go to that subject that GoK hates so much: language and literature.

What GoK did was to pick the dreams of Kenyans for education, and then use those dreams to describe CBC. Here are some examples.
There were videos that were shared until I was sick of them: the talks by Sir Ken Robinson on education. In those videos, he went on and on about letting kids' minds roam free, be creative and do artistic work.

KICD picked that, told people that CBC was about "talent.
But what Kenyans didn't hear (they rarely do when a mzungu speaks and government repeats) is that Robinson didn't talk about kids roaming in the streets and dancing or drawing on their own. He was talking about what kids were saying to arts TEACHERS in arts lessons.

.@KenMijungu Just to clarify:

I AM AGAINST CBC.

I am not one of those who have a problem with implementation, textbooks or training of teachers. I am against the approach itself. #competencybasedcurriculum #sidebar
For me, the problems of implementation etc came from CBC, not the other way round.

I believe that even @KICDKenya doesn't know the monster that CBC is, that's why it didn't want to communicate to the public in the first place. #competencybasedcurriculum #sidebar
For the same reason that no one knows what CBC is, the textbooks had mistakes and took long to produce. And KICD didn't have the guts to face the teachers. To this day, some trainers secretly admit that they're still not sure what CBC is. #competencybasedcurriculum #sidebar
