November 30, 2013Pop-Up Schools Could Radically Improve Global EducationMost of the buildings in Machakos, the former capital of Kenya, are made of concrete, with neat fences, informal gardens, indoor plumbing, and electricity, however erratic. By contrast, the local schoolhouse of Bridge International Academies is beyond basic: walls of corrugated tin, a plywood frame. There's no electrical wiring in sight. A pair of latrines adjoin an open courtyard that doubles as a lunch and recreation area. A few young children loll on the patchy grass, engaged in unhurried conversation.Posted by Jim Zellmer at November 30, 2013 12:20 AM Subscribe to this site via RSS/Atom: ![]() Comments
