Schools in Developing Countries
Hi Rodney,
Really inspiring work you're planning to launch - can you tell us a bit more about how you are choosing schools in developing countries and how you plan to make schools in developing countries accountable to ensure funding is used appropriately?
Thanks and Goodluck!

RE:
I'm glad you ask! This is probably the most difficult aspect of the program, but the opportunity somehow made its way through. The President of the college that i attend happened to start an African Resource Foundation, that actually connects different organization from Africa to the World wide web, including educational institutions. During the beginning stages partnering with schools in developing countries, we will try to connect to a Third Party sponsor to hold accountable and ensure that the funding is used appropiately.
We also plan on taking teams overseas to assess the progress of these institutions. This is all on the planning stages and even now we are currently researching simpler and more accessible ways of actually establishing a partnership with schools overseas. This would take a "bridge" organization, or a Third party organization as stated...But if you have any suggestions or recommendations please feel free to share, because being in the developing stages we really need help in making this idea a reality.
Thanks,
Rodney
This is really awesome, Well
This is really awesome, Well How can federal and state governments throughout the world support the work of teachers in ways that foster the academic success of all students? What kind of knowledge can best support effective policy reform? How can evidence-based educational research inform practical and workable strategies to improve the effectiveness of schools and to reduce quality gaps? 70-554 This introductory course in education policy analysis examines how to draw on the results of quality research to compare policy alternatives. We examine what factors influence the opportunity to learn in schools in diverse national contexts. We also review alternative frameworks to think about the utilization of research to inform policy. We critically examine research on early-childhood education, 70-552 language of instruction, teacher education, 70-553 and school governance, as well as evaluate targeted programs to enhance the quality of schools attended by disadvantaged students.
