[ send me this paper ]
A 6 page paper
applying the principles of "Informed Dialogue : Using Research to Shape Education Policy around
the World" to formulating educational policy in Namibia. While reaching informed decisions and
then implementing them is the ultimate goal of the process described by the authors, the
interactions of those involved in the process are nearly as important as the outcome of their
discussions and negotiations. Each aspect of the decision-making process is seen as being
valuable not only to improving education and reducing its elitist components, but also in
contributing to building a national goal in enhancing the lives of those who had been so flagrantly
discriminated against in the colonial system. Bibliography lists 8 sources.

[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length.

The writer provides an overview of the program, as well as drawbacks for non-English-speaking students. Bibliography lists 6 sources.
