Assessment
We monitor both the current context in which multilingual literacy programs take place, and the progress that communities make toward their educational goals.
Professional Development Systems
In partnership with SIL International, we have been challenged by the need for a systematic process for tracking the skills, aptitudes and experiences of literacy workers across a number of partner organizations. The goal of this endeavor is 1) to encourage an on-going attitude of skills development among workers, and 2) to properly assess needs and opportunities so that partners may effectively mobilize resources to the vast needs we see on an un-even educational landscape where not all children have equal access to quality learning opportunities.
Curriculum Management Software
We have also partnered with a private software company to improve existing solutions to the challenge of literacy material development in local languages. For example, SIL International’s award winning software “Bloom” enables local authors to create print, digital and multimedia stories in local languages. Our utilities enable project managers to track content development at scale, supercharging the availability of vital local language material.
