Cheek, Jimmy G.; Beeman, Carl E. (Apr 1987). A Faculty Short Course on Improving College Teaching at Escuela Agricola Panamericana, Tegucigalpa, Honduras, Central America. A short course on improving college teaching at Escuela Agricola Panamericana (EAP), in Tegucigalpa, Honduras, is discussed. Two University of Florida college faculty members were engaged by the United States Information Agency to conduct the 2-week course for EAP college faculty. Course objectives included: identifying the role of the teacher and major learning principles, describing a procedure for developing college courses and lesson plans, selecting and using a variety of teaching methods, developing and using visual aids, and developing tests. The workshop began on September 8, 1986 with a 2-hour general session. Weekday morning seminar sessions were conducted in English and night sessions were translated into Spanish. Twenty-four faculty from EAP completed the course, and several other faculty attended one or more sessions. The U.S. faculty members also consulted with staff regarding current educational programs and possible revisions. Information is provided on workshop textbooks, the course schedule, and topics and reading assignments. Workshop evaluation questions and the results are also presented. Major accomplishments of the activity are specified, along with recommendations for the future. (SW) ED289387

Corrales, Carleton. (Apr 1995). Adult Basic Education in Honduras: Managing Multiple Channels. Learntech Case Study Series No. 9. On June 1, 1992, the Ministry of Education in Honduras started a pilot project using Interactive Radio Instruction (IRI) to deliver adult basic education. This case study examines the IRI project, or the “Basic Education for All” project, which is predicated on the conviction that educational investment in basic education for young working people could effectively accelerate economic and social development. The document begins with a brief discussion on illiteracy rates and the failure of adult education programs in Honduras. It goes on to note how the Basic Education for All project adapted an IRI elementary education curriculum to cover six academic years (levels); the design of the first and last three levels are described in detail. Discussion then focuses on the following factors that were important for establishing the project as a permanent educational system: institutional roles; catering to adult learners; the role of radio facilitators; delivery of audio and print resources; managing the radio system; supervising the centers; training needs; marketing; and funding. Evaluation and outcomes are discussed and achievement data is then delineated according to gender. Six figures present comparisons by subject, level, and gender. (Contains 20 references.)

Following the introduction are three sections on soil conservation: traditional Honduran farming techniques and resulting problems, soil conservation strategies, and soil fertility and its maintenance. Section V on extension methodology includes some sample work activities, guidelines for evaluating work, motivating techniques, and types of groups with which one may be involved. A conclusion precedes a listing of suggested references and the following appendixes: an English-Spanish vocabulary list, dichotomous key to the selection of soil conservation practices, results of the Santa Cruz Extension Project, instructions for two simple levels for use in surveying contour lines, and some demonstrations useful in promoting new techniques. Eight tables and 46 figures are provided throughout the text of the guide. (YLB) ED288044

Cuadra, Ernesto; Crouch, Luis. (Dec 1989). Indicators of Student Flow Rates in Honduras: An Assessment of an Alternative Methodology, with Two Methodologies for Estimating Student Flow Rates. Bridges Research Report No. 6. Student promotion, repetition, and dropout rates constitute the basic data needed to forecast future enrollment and new resources. Information on student flow is significantly related to policy formulation aimed at improving internal efficiency, because dropping out and grade repetition increase per pupil cost, block access to eligible school-age children, and prevent students from gaining an adequate education. Although studies conducted in many Third World countries have shown that student enrollment information collected by education ministries is fairly reliable, most countries underestimate grade repetition rates, because reliable data is absent. One method for calculating the number of repeaters that is not based on school data is the age/grade method. The basic assumption is that enrollment data by age and grade sent to education ministries is more accurate than the repetition data. Cuadra’s paper describes a 1986 study conducted in Honduras that tested this model by comparing school records of 327 students with data obtained from interviewing the students’ parents. The study determined the accuracy of the age/grade method for reporting basic enrollment information and found that school statistics consistently underreported the number of repeaters. By underreporting repeaters, schools also overestimated the number of dropouts. Other implications are discussed. Two other papers discuss alternative methods for estimating student flow rates in the absence of sufficient data. (52 references) (MLH) ED319116

Brownlee, Bonnie J. (Jul 1988). Conducting Evaluation Research Abroad: Some Things They Don’t Exactly Tell You. This paper chronicles the anecdotal evidence of unexpected problems that emerged in two mass communication projects in Central America. The aim is to highlight the most salient “people-related” issues faced by mass communication evaluation researchers who work in alien cultures. The paper argues that graduate students in schools of journalism and mass communication are well trained in theory, methods, and statistical analysis but are not so well prepared to deal with the obstacles put up by people and the organizations they represent in field settings. The paper states that this problem is particularly true for those who intend to work in evaluation research in developing countries. The two projects discussed in the paper dealt with non-formal community educational radio and were located in isolated regions of Nicaragua and Honduras. Personal experiences of the author during these projects are recounted while observations drawn from literature that addresses evaluation research are integrated in the text. The paper makes the case that the field of journalism and mass communication needs to prepare graduates better to handle these “people-related” issues. (Thirteen notes are included.) (MS) ED298544

Despite increased international attention, human rights violations continue to occur at the local, regional, national, and global levels. This unit introduces students to the concept of human rights and adds issues to that concept to heighten their awareness of the complexities of protecting human rights. Students are encouraged to consider multiple perspectives when discussing case studies from around the world. The unit introduction contains a rationale and introduction to lessons; unit goals; connections to curriculum standards; materials needed; time required; subjects and suggested grade levels; simulation overview; and icons. Lesson 1, “What Are Human Rights?” considers an appropriate definition of human rights. Lesson 2, “Minorities, Minority Rights, and Genocide,” asks students to consider their personal experiences with discrimination and to develop a working definition of minorities and minority rights and then looks at genocide. Lesson 3, “Civil/Political Rights,” asks students to identify civil/political rights issues and uses six real case studies to delve deeper into these issues. Lesson 4, “Women and Human Rights,” asks students to reflect on gender stereotypes they may hold and to think about the origins of such assumptions. The lesson focuses on biological and socially constructed differences between males and females to examine why women may be more impacted by certain human rights violations than males. It uses case studies from Brazil, Nicaragua, and Honduras to discuss the feminization of poverty. The unit concludes with a “Unit Debriefing” that highlights contemporary controversies surrounding the protection of human rights. Appendices contain additional resources. (BT) ED470402

Evans, Thomas J. (1997). Evaluation Report of a Detention-Based Student Disciplinary Program in a Honduran/International Primary School. The Escuela Internacional Sampedrana (EIS) in Honduras implemented a new discipline program in its Primary School during the 1996-97 school year. This paper contains findings from three evaluations of the program–an initial analysis, a midyear report, and a year-end report. The first report analyzed the number of suspensions and detentions, as well as the number of total accumulated violations. The midyear and end-year reports looked at the total number of minor infractions cited by teachers since the beginning of the school year grouped by grade levels and cumulatively, the average number of detention letters typically given to students of each grade level, and the cumulative total of such suspensions across each grade level separately and combined. The studies found that minor infractions did not accumulate at an alarming rate; nor was there evidence of widespread discipline problems. Few students were repeat offenders. The following recommendations were made: (1) Make the minor-infraction discipline codes more specific; (2) offer some type of new teacher training or induction program; and (3) create a discipline committee to address unresolved issues. Appendices contain the rationale for the Primary School discipline program and policy statements that define the consequences for minor, serious, and very serious infractions. Ten tables were included. (LMI) ED410644

Evans, Thomas J. (1998). An Introduction to Educational Research: Disciplined Inquiry and Literature Reviews. This paper presents an introduction to basic concepts of educational research for preschool, elementary, and secondary teachers at the Escuela Internacional Sampedrana (EIS) in Honduras who expressed interest in pursuing graduate education in the United States. EIS is a private bilingual (Spanish-English) K-12 school in Honduras. In the first part of the paper, teachers are introduced to the characteristics of qualitative and quantitative research methods, and later to a blending of the two methods into an approach known as “disciplined inquiry.” The second part of the paper presents an active introduction (including sample worksheets) to reviewing research and synthesizing findings from pertinent research studies into an integrative overview. Specific techniques for constructing such a literature review are noted, including the basic rules of the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association (APA). Three appendixes provide a profile of EIS, the EIS professional development seminar series schedule, and a brief guide for APA writing style. (Contains 11 references.)

Evans, Thomas J. (1998). Standard Setting Models for High School Graduation Competency Tests. This paper explores common concerns about competency testing as they relate to the certification of high school graduates seeking a diploma in the United States. Competency testing is widespread in the United States, with 40 states engaged in competency testing in at least one grade. In general, and particularly for graduation requirements, the certification of minimum competency is the objective, as fears that the minimum levels defined would become the accepted standards for all students have been discredited. A number of standard setting methods exist to determine standards for minimum competency. Numerous test-centered continuum models have been proposed for competency testing programs, and the most common of these are reviewed. Two examinee-centered continuum models are also described. Several authors have compared standard setting methods, as it is apparent that the standard setting procedures used to arrive at justifiable standards for competency tests vary in method and results. Careful consideration should be given to the choice of any single standard setting method, and the wisest course of action may be to use several procedures to attempt to reach convergence at an appropriate cut score.

Evans, Thomas J. (Nov 1996). Deming’s System of Profound Knowledge: An Overview for International Educators. W. Edwards Deming called for the transformation to a new style of organizational management based on greater cooperation between managers and employees. This transformation could be achieved by introducing “profound knowledge” into the system. This paper is a presentation outline that was used to introduce the basics of Deming’s theory of organizational improvement to a group of teachers and administrators associated with the Association of Bilingual Schools of Honduras. Because Deming’s Fourteen Points for Management embody the components of profound knowledge, application of the points is necessary for achieving system transformation and more effective management. The aim of transformation is to change the prevailing style of management. Profound knowledge is composed of four interrelated concepts: (1) organization members’ appreciation for systems thinking; (2) knowledge about variation within systems; (3) a conceptualized theory of knowledge; and (4) an understanding of psychology. Five figures that were used as overhead transparencies to highlight key concepts are included. Appendices summarize Deming’s theoretical perspective.

Evans, Thomas J.; Traylor, Stacy L. (Jul 1997). A Developmentally Appropriate Honduran/International Primary School Computer Curriculum. Students and teachers need to develop skills in using available technological capacities. The curriculum described here is designed to familiarize students and teachers with equipment and software available at the Escuela Internacional Sampedrana’s Primary School (EIS) in Honduras. Key features of the curriculum include the use of the Internet and e-mail; grade level developmental activities including word processing, typing, painting/drawing, and spreadsheet/database programs; teacher training suggestions; and an overview on web page construction. This document begins by describing EIS administration, educational philosophy, teachers, primary school academic program, and educational goals, as well as the history of the computer laboratory. It then presents a general overview of the computer curriculum objectives for grades 1 through 6 and student evaluation methods. For each grade level, specific learning objectives, instructional strategies, and evaluation methods are described. Sample lesson plans are also included. Contains 9 references. (KB) ED409989

Everitt, John. (Apr 1982). Changing Patterns of Cultural Imperialism in a Developing Country. Using Belize, Central America, as an example, this paper illustrates some of the changing patterns of cultural imperialism that can presently be viewed in the emerging nations of the world. Cultural imperialism is defined as the process whereby the culture of a weaker nation is dominated by that of a stronger nation. In September 1981, Belize, formerly British Honduras, gained its political independence from the United Kingdom. In the past the major force influencing the Belizean culture came from the British Isles. The trend now is toward an increasing pattern of Americanization and a corresponding decrease in British influence. The paper examines current imperialist patterns which reflect this trend: economic imperialism and socio-political imperialism. The private land in Belize is now largely owned by U.S. interests. In the worlds of finance and trade, there is also a growing North American orientation. The unit of currency in Belize is now the dollar. Many of Belize’s exports such as sugar and seafood come to the United States. The U.S. influence can also be seen in the production process. The Hershey foods ship cacao to Pennsylvania and an American born doctor grows and sells mangoes to the United States. The U.S. socio-political imperialism can be seen in communications, migrations, and the military. For example, most vehicles in Belize are now American; one of the major sources of immigrants is North America and this is also the most important destination for emigrants; and the United States has recently agreed to provide training for the Belize Defense Force.

Delgado, Gilbert L. (Jul 1995). A Comparative Overview of the Education of Deaf Children in Central America, the Caribbean and Parts of South America. This paper describes the current state of education for deaf children in Central America and the Caribbean (with some mention of parts of South America), focusing on an historical description of events and forces impacting these regions; current educational philosophies; adult associations of deaf people; intra/intercountry networking; educational and medical aspects; and visions for the future. The countries included are: Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Panama, Dominican Republic, Jamaica, Antigua, Dominica, and the Bahamas, with mentions of Argentina, Venezuela, Ecuador, and Colombia. The historic importance in deaf education of individual visionary educators or international organizations in particular countries is noted. The role of the International Center on Deafness at Gallaudet University (Washington, D.C.) is also noted. The influence of the “total communication” philosophy and the development of Associations of the Deaf are briefly discussed. The lack of professional training programs in this area is illustrated by a table showing training possibilities across Central America. Effects of the ownership of teacher preparation centers by otolaryngologists are also noted (such as a medical pathology approach to deafness). (DB) ED389108

This series issue presents a description and assessment of the Agency for International Development (AID) funded endowment concept as conducted by a number of AID Missions and host governments in Latin American and the Caribbean. These endowments are being used to strengthen and sustain the financial base of existing or new non-governmental institutions, including foundations and educational institutions; or to help in transferring important development functions that are poorly performed by the public sector. Topics discussed include: the creation, funding, expansion, and management of endowments; their dissolution; and issues of concern that could hinder host governments and donors from establishing a successful endowment. These issues include institutional displacement, organizational performance, political interference, and the rapid devaluation of an endowment due to such things as currency instability, rampant inflation, and government policies. Also discussed are issues concerning financial accountability in order to protect endowment resources, and the point at which AID responsibility for monitoring and exercising control over the management and use of endowment earnings ends. Names and descriptions of eight AID-funded endowments in Costa Rica, Ecuador, Honduras, the Dominican Republic, and Portugal conclude the report. (GLR) ED355876

Herschbach, Dennis R.; And Others. (1992). Vocational Education and Training. Review of Experience. Latin America and the Caribbean. This report examines the problem of implementing and sustaining vocational education and training (VET) programs in developing countries. It is intended to provide U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) officers with operational guidelines for the development of future projects. In conducting the study, over 50 projects conducted by USAID from 1973 to 1989 were reviewed. Twenty-four of these were selected for intensive review, and two as case studies. Chapter I is an introduction which explains the purpose of the study, sources of information, definitions and the organization of the report. Chapter II outlines the issues surrounding investment decisions in VET and presents a framework for formulating vocational training policy based on consideration of two critical factors–implementing context and project complexity. Chapter III examines formal and nonformal training alternatives, focusing on benefits and implementing requirements. Chapter IV discusses how to improve training quality. It focuses on the key elements of training at the operational level–management development, instructional staff, and instructional resources. Next, it examines requirements of the overall training system in which individual programs operate. Chapter V analyzes benefits and constraints of each type of available funding: general public revenues, payroll taxes, user fees, and student loans. Chapter VI summarizes findings and conclusions. It offers recommendations for investment choices, with particular emphasis on the Latin American and Caribbean region, and provides guidelines for strengthening project design, with emphasis on improving quality and sustainability. Appendixes contain 127 references, a cursory review of 24 projects in VET, and 2 indepth case studies of projects in Honduras and Jamaica. (YLB) ED354337

Holland, Lynn. (12 Oct 1987). The Principle of Cognitive Consistency and Central American Policy: A Comparison of the Carter and Reagan Administrations. The principle of cognitive consistency, formulated by Jack Snyder, explains decision-making under stressful conditions. Snyder contends that decision-making under stressful conditions creates a drive toward cognitive consistency and brings into operation tendencies: (1) toward a perception of certainty about an opponent’s intention and the righteousness of one’s own position; (2) toward perceiving the principal values in the situation as consistent rather than inconsistent; and (3) toward adopting a strategy of compellance rather than negotiation. A revised model of this principle is used to evaluate foreign policy toward Central America during the Reagan administration and to contrast it with that of the Carter administration. Critical events preceding Reagan’s election produced uncertainty in foreign affairs during his administration. Under Reagan, aid to El Salvador and Honduras increased dramatically and three new Central American countries received increased aid. The Carter administration was marked by a more analytical model of decision-making as exemplified by the policy on human rights. A “normalization” of the situation in Central America should bring about the return of analytical decision-making, according to this model. The signing of the Arias Peace Plan and the tentative negotiations which followed suggest that watchful accommodation will replace the current policy of military intervention. Thirty-one footnotes are included and an appendix provides a series of graphs and charts (SM) ED291647

Hopson, Darlene Powell; Hopson, Derek S. (1993). Raising the Rainbow Generation: Teaching Your Children to Be Successful in a Multicultural Society. Noting that the United States is fast becoming the most culturally, racially, and ethnically diverse nation in the world, this book is designed to help parents, teachers, and other child caregivers teach children and teens respect and appreciation for all cultural, ethnic, and racial groups. Using age-appropriate examples, the book shows how to combat bias and negative attitudes from friends, relatives, and the media. It also provides problem solving techniques for specific situations; a resource guide to multicultural books, audiotapes, videos, dolls, and games; 11 stories from different cultures to share with children; and creative activities that celebrate a variety of cultures. Part 1 discusses the role of parents and family in the development of children’s attitudes and the importance of early cultural education. Part 2 looks at influences outside the home and family, such as school and the media. Part 3 explains how to counteract negative influences on children’s attitudes and to support positive ones. Part 4 contains a variety of folktales that offer views of other peoples and cultures. The titles are: (1) “The Earth on Turtle’s Back” (Onondaga Indians, Northeast United States); (2) “Banh Giay and Banh Chung” (Vietnam); (3) “The Flight of the Animals” (India); (4) “Cinder Jack” (Hungary); (5) “How the Porcupine Outwitted the Fox” (Honduras); (6) “Simon and the Big Joke” (Trinidad); (7) “The Man Whose Luck Was Sleeping” (Persia); (8) “The Origin of Lamps” and “The Education of Goat” (Haiti); (9) “Treasure Mountain” (Yao People, Southern China); (10) “The Baby Leopard” (West Africa); and (11) “Lon Po Po” (China).

Garrison, Bruce; Munoz, Julio E. (May 1985). An Update of Freedom of the Press and Information in Latin America and the Caribbean. This paper is based on a review of the literature that included reports from the Inter-American Press Association’s general assembly in Los Angeles in October 1984, the mid-year meeting of the Inter-American Press Association in Panama City in March 1985, and the 1983 world press freedom review of the International Press Institute. Other material is adapted from the Index on Censorship and the Committee to Protect Journalists Update No. 10 (January-February 1984). The paper examines the current status of freedom of the press and information in Latin America and the Caribbean. Among the nations discussed are Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Cuba, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, El Salvador, Grenada, Guatemala, Guyana, Haiti, Honduras, Jamaica, Mexico, Netherland Antilles, Nicaragua, Panama, Paraguay, Peru, Puerto Rico, Surinam, Uruguay, and Venezuela. The paper concludes by noting that the status of freedom of the press and of information is improving in the area, as is evident in (1) return of democracy in Argentina, (2) end of total censorship in Uruguay, and (3) maintenance of democracy in the three traditional democratic countries of Venezuela, Colombia, and Costa Rica.

Guevara, Alvaro Agudo. (Jan 1985). A Study of Public Library Users in Some Countries of Latin America and the Caribbean. This user survey was part of a three-part diagnostic study that sought to obtain information on how public libraries operate in Latin America (Argentina, Colombia, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Panama, and Venezuela) and the Caribbean (Barbados, Grenada, Jamaica, and Surinam) and the social role performed by this type of service in the region. Each part of the study involved preparation and administration of a questionnaire to public libraries in all countries of the region. A total of 3,796 questionnaires representing 192 libraries in 11 countries were processed. The objectives of the user survey were: (1) to draw a user profile based on sex, age, level of education, background (urban, suburban, or rural) and socio-economic level; (2) to draw a user profile based on use made of the library, taking into account the stated usefulness of the information sought, the type of material consulted, how long the user has been visiting the library, how often and how much, and how well his information needs are satisfied; (3) to investigate the relationship between the user’s choice of a library and the features of the library that affect this choice; and (4) to obtain information on how users learn about the library. The first section of this report sets forth the objectives of the user survey, briefly describes the methods used, and characterizes the participants. The second section contains an analysis of the data obtained and presents the conclusions. Questionnaires and statistical tables showing study results are appended. (THC) ED255218
