Green Village Schools in Afghanistan - Home - 1 views

  • Our vision is to foster schools in Afghanistan that offer children a basic education and empower young people and their communities to become actively engaged in building a future of hope for their country.

      I wonder what a "basic education" in Afghanistan is like.

      I think it would be good if we helped people in other places get a more than "basic" education, too.

      I think what they mean by basic education is that people who are less than like say 3rd grade leveled, have to learn, but people who have higher levels of education don't have to go to school anymore. This is only what I think.

      I think what they mean by "basic education" is when the schools allow the students to study in academics and when students complete the maximum number of years of education in that country. But in this situation, I think it has to do with religious studies that some schools in Afghanistan do.

      I think what they mean by "basic education" is that their program doesn't exceed the level of basic studies. That they don't learn any more than what is necessary or will help them later in life.

    This project started in Portland, Oregon is doing actual work to build schools in Afghanistan. I wonder if our BSGE students in the 8th grade would want to do some community service work to help children get better schools.

USAID Asia - Countries - Afghanistan - Education - 1 views

  • Afghanistan has one of the highest illiteracy rates in the world. In rural areas, where three-fourths of all Afghans live, 90% of the women and 63% of the men are illiterate. Nearly three-quarters of Afghans over the age of 15 cannot read or write. Under the Taliban, girls were not allowed to go to school and many boys received religious education in lieu of academics.

      I think this excerpt gives a good defense in supporting the fact that Afghanistan should have new schools that give access to every student.
  •  
    I also agree that Afghanistan is the ideal place to build a new school, for it has one of the highest rates of illiteracy in the world.

    This is a good article to start with. You will need pictures next. Minimally, tag it according to the country name and schools.

    Schools in Afghanistan don't have enough money or supplies for all the students in their schools. Students aren't learning efficiently because of this.

Landmines: Schools in Afghanistan - 2 views

  •  
    This is a school that is literally surrounded by a minefield. They could accidentally step on one and it would blow.
  •  
    Schools in Afghanistan are being destroyed by landmines. Kids aren't getting proper education because their schools are being closed down due to landmines.

    This picture is about a school in Afghanistan. As you can tell from the picture the location is poor due to all the rocks in front of the school. The view is not pretty and it is implied from this simple picture that this school, just like many others, sadly are very poor.

    This site shows the need of education for the children of Afghan. After under going war, they have been left with a lot of people needed in various feilds, especially in education. It was stated here that 70% of the children here are uneducated. Schools also have poor living conditions and limited suplies.

    Looks like a good start. Minimally, tag it according to the country name and schools. Afgan is the adjective to describe someone from Afghanistan. For example, we are American, but live in America, or more specifically, the United States.
