Using Texting to Increase Literacy in Afghanistan
Afghanistan
Education
AIL has piloted a project using cell phones and texting in conjunction with it's literacy program to accelerate the learning of 60 illiterate young Afghan women. The students in the pilot classes were able to complete 3 levels of literacy classes in 5 months, a feat which normally takes 18 months. AIL is now looking to expand this successful program from 2 classes to 10 classes in different areas of Afghanistan as well as train teachers on how to use cell phones as a teaching tool.
