Mission: Impact Network believes that every child deserves a quality education. Our eSchool 360 program has improved learning outcomes at a fraction of the cost of government schools. Our eSchool 360 program provides locally-hired teachers with a Mwabu tablet and projector to deliver eLearning lessons, using an interactive curriculum that moves away from traditional rote learning. We give teachers weekly coaching and monthly professional development to help them improve their pedagogical and technology skills.
Results: We currently operate in 40+ schools and serve over 6,000 students. In an independent study, researchers from American University concluded that Impact Network schools improve the numeracy and literacy skills of students and cost less than 1/3 of government schools. The evaluation examined five Impact Network schools, five surrounding government schools and five other community schools. It consisted of a baseline study, an 18-month quantitative impact evaluation measuring students’ math and literacy skills, a qualitative analysis based on interviews and focus groups, and a cost study.
Direct beneficiaries per year: 6,000 students
Geographic areas served: Africa
