Content | New Century Education | All | Jim Griffin | New Century uses adaptive diagnostic tests (1 for math and 1 for Reading/language arts) to determine the average grade level and what a student knows and what he or she is missing. The tests typically take less than an hour. The tests drill down to lower levels and to higher levels, so the student is only learning what he needs to be proficient. The tests generate an individualized lesson path for the student, starting with the lowest skill gaps. Students must pass mastery tests to confirm mastery of learning objectives before moving forward. The lesson paths are also adaptive. Students who need additional lessons to scaffold them to mastery, automatically receive them. Students who learn quickly are expressed through the lessons. Learning is therefore efficient. Students with access to computers on nights and weekends have recovered four grade levels in a year. Dedicated students in school have been able to move two grade levels above their class. If a student continues to struggle, the teacher is alerted to help them, and can pull the specific lesson and review it with the student. There is even a review system at the end of the lesson that identifies which frames of the lesson were not successfully answered. The software handles most of the students most of the time, the teacher, or mentor, is focused where they are needed most. |

During the war, 40,000 children were abducted to serve as child soldiers or, in the case of girls, “wives” to other soldiers. 1.7 million people were displaced and over 100,000 people abducted or mutilated by the Lord’s Resistance Army. Wakadogo School, the first school in Acoyo village, opened its doors in 2009 to educate some of the most marginalised children.
