Designing and Evaluating Educational Interventions in the Global South

Undergraduate

This course explores how education systems in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), which support the learning of tens of millions of children, can be strengthened through effective, context-responsive innovations and interventions. We will examine a variety of aspects of education systems - such as teacher training, curriculum, financing, and school leadership – through the lenses of policy reform and innovation. Throughout the course, students will develop policy analysis skills by researching and designing knowledge-based innovations and interventions implemented in local and global contexts. Prerequisite: EDST 1110 recommended. WR M 1:30pm-3:25pm
