Plans to open an agency in Nigeria, Africa

The Early Learning Academy.



Your course Major Essay will be your plans to open an agency in Nigeria, Africa. 

Name of the agency is: The Early Learning Academy.

PROPOSAL ASSIGNMENT 1:

I expect a proposal for this course’s major essay, outlining which educational philosophies you will be considering, and how you propose to weigh the advantages and disadvantages of each as they apply to the Nigerian setting. Good luck.
3 pages plus references.
LEST I FORGET:

This is to confirm the assignments:

1.         I expect a proposal for the course’s major essay 3 pages outlining which educational philosophies you will be considering, and how you propose to weigh the advantages and disadvantages of each as they apply to the Nigerian setting.

2.         A first draft of your essay is due in 3 weeks after the proposal and it should be a 20-page essay.  I will get back to you with suggestions for improvements ASAP.

3.         Essay is due in its final form 3 weeks after the draft essay.


From what I see about your special interest is opening a Learning Academy in Nigeria. I would suggest we look into some area related to that field– recent developments and strategies of early childhood education, or comparing various approaches that you find, for example Montessori schools versus conventional school, or even the Waldorf Academies. Here is a link to an interesting article I read recently about Waldorf schools in China.

 It’s interesting in the way it describes starting a school from scratch.
You also might want to look at MONTESSORI SCHOOLS.

Perhaps your course work could be a single major essay comparing these two styles of school, with some research being that you visit a school in each style, if you can find them nearby where you live.
