We are honored that you have chosen to have the 49th annual meeting of the Society at SUSE. I wish you an intellectually stimulating and most enjoyable conference. The School of Education at Stanford has long been at the forefront of educational research and graduate training. We have a small but superb teacher education program. This year the program is expanding from secondary education to begin training teachers in elementary education. We have important programs in curric- ulum, educational psychology, measurement and statistical methods, the econom- ics and sociology of education, organizations and leadership, educational policy analysis, and, of course, international and comparative education. More than one-third of our Ph.D. recipients end up in academia, the highest of any School of Education in the country. However, we are not just an ivory tower. Our faculty and students are deeply involved in schools, working hands on with teach- ers and administrators to improve learning, especially among low-income children. We are extremely proud of the International and Comparative Education program at SUSE, which has been at the forefront of the field for the past forty years. Many of the leaders of CIES have been students in the program. The last time the CIES was at Stanford was exactly twenty years ago, in 1985. This close relationship be- tween Stanford and CIES has been beneficial to all of us. I hope that the annual meeting this year will be a tremendous success. On behalf of the School of Education, I assure you that we will do everything we can to make sure that it is. Sincerely, Deborah Stipek Dean, School of Education ii Welcome from the President of CIES Comparative and International Education Society Greetings!

Stanford University School of Education’s International and Comparative Education Program is your host. We hope that you enjoy your stay with us. This year’s meeting is organized around the theme, Beyond Dichotomies. Comparative and International Education is loaded with conflicting conceptions about education, language, the role of gender in education, notions of teaching and teacher education, and how to do meaningful research. We have urged all of you to explore these conflicting approaches in your papers and panels. In order to stimulate the discussion further, we have organized a series of invited panels. Hopefully, you will be able to attend at least one of these. The Eggerston Lecture will be given by Nelly Stromquist, a long-time member of the Society and former President. Her lecture, on girls’ education, will be part of the Gender Symposium, which will take place on Wednesday, March 23, from 10:30 AM to 3 PM, and will include the luncheon address. The 2005 Kneller Lecture will be given by Weifang Min, Provost at the University of Beijing, Professor Min is a leading force in China’s educational reforms. He specializes in higher education, where major changes are taking place in educational policies. His talk is titled, ““The Economic Transition and Higher Education Reform in China.” The Meeting is being held in three different buildings on the Stanford campus—the two buildings of the School of Education and the Wallenberg Building, a space constructed to facilitate the use of new technologies in university teaching. During the conference we will have a videoconference with South Africa, using the excellent conferencing facilities in the Wallenberg Building. Again, we welcome you to fair California. Enjoy the Conference, enjoy the Bay Area, and enjoy challenging the paradigms of our intellectual field. Remember, one good new idea makes the trip worthwhile. Sincerely, Martin Carnoy, President-Elect iv About CIES The Comparative and International Education Society (CIES) was founded in 1956 to foster cross-cultural understanding, scholarship, academic achievement and societal development through the international study of educational ideas, systems, and practices.

  • ICT in Education in Benin
    SURVEY OF ICT AND EDUCATION IN AFRICA: Benin Country Report ICT in Education in Benin by Osei Tutu Agyeman June 2007 Source: World Fact Book1 Disclaimer Statement Please note: This short Country Report, a result of a larger infoDev-supported Survey of ICT in Education in Africa, provides a general overview of current activities and issues related to ICT use in education in the country. The data presented here should be regarded as illustrative rather than exhaustive. ICT use in education is at a particularly dynamic stage in Africa; new developments and announcements happening on a daily basis somewhere on the continent. Therefore, these reports should be seen as “snapshots” that were current at the time they were taken; it is expected that certain facts and figures presented may become dated very quickly. The findings, interpretations and conclusions expressed herein are entirely those of the author(s) and do not necessarily reflect the view of infoDev, the Donors of infoDev, the World Bank and its affiliated organizations, the Board of Executive Directors of the World Bank or the governments they represent.

Children with disabilities become more regressions in their learning and leading a longer passage in school term to another. Despite the efforts made to facilitate the inclusion of children who are experiencing difficulties and learning school and certain changes in the situation, there is still a gap to be filled before talking about equity and accessibility that is not always easy. Only that some parents do not often report these children to school. There is no legal requirement to the decision to accommodate a child who has special educational needs. To facilitate the care of these children, the Government of Benin has developed in 2012 the policy of integration of children with special needs in pre- school and primary education. Key words: Analysis, Comparative, Academic, Performance, Children, Difficulties, Inclusion I.
