We're looking for a volunteer evaluation consultant.
We need to select and customize survey techniques to evaluate our project in Lesotho. In the short-term, we want to look at changes in academic achievement and computer skills and evaluate supplemental materials used with the school curriculum. (We've got an independent researcher working on evaluating long-term educational, social, economic, health, and cultural changes.)
Is there anyone out there who has knowledge and experience designing evaluation methodologies who would like to work with Laptops to Lesotho between now and January?
We'd like to start collecting some data in January when we have a group of volunteers going to Lesotho for several weeks. We've defined our evaualtion goals and the basic data we want to collect. Now we need to get down to the nitty-gritty and develop detailed methodologies.

Can you help or know someone who could?

Hi Janissa
ReplyDeleteI've been following your project from some time ago. It has been exciting to watch how you have been putting all the pieces together.
Currently I'm working on a deployment in the south-western region of Colombia. I have worked for OLPC for almost 5 years in several deployments in Colombia, Argentina, Rwanda among others.
I have some experience developing evaluation systems and will be delighted to help you although the interaction will have to be online since I can't move from the field.
Please let me know how can I help you and when can we Skype/phone and discuss this more in depth.
Best,
Pedro Cuéllar
