POST 00512E : DROPOUT REDUCTION

POST 00512E : DROPOUT REDUCTION 21 October 2002 __________________________________________________________ Bob Davis (mailto:[log in to unmask]) from UNICEF/Nairobi, would like to know of any well documented and evaluated efforts to reduce dropout rates, preferably on a provincial or national level. What were the methods used, and what were the baseline and post-implementation dropout rates? Purely descriptive studies, which abound, are less interesting than those which can quantify an impact." Please respond to both Bob and Technet. Such studies would likely be of interest to many other members and they will eventually get publicized on Technet. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CONTRIBUTIONS: Contributions to: or use your reply button!
