Challenges in South Sudan’s education
Introduction:
A succinct description of the issues facing South Sudan’s educational system.
1. Insufficient Educational Access:
A high percentage of school-age children are not attending because of poverty, conflict, and displacement.
Rural areas with poor infrastructure and schooling.
Lack of resources and poorly educated teachers.
2. Disparities in Gender:
Disproportionately more males than females have access to schooling.
There are social and cultural elements at play here.
3. Conflict’s Effects
Constant conflict disrupts education and causes school closures and relocation.
Schools are used for military purposes, making learning there dangerous.
4. Financial Obstacles:
Poverty prevents kids from going to school and forces them into the workforce.
Families are unable to cover the costs of sending children to school.
5. Education Level of Quality
Low quality of education as a result of insufficient funding and teacher preparation.
Absence of exams and curriculum standards.
Early Marriage and Conception:
Girls’ access to school is affected by early marriage and pregnancy.
It is crucial to solve these challenges in order to support girls’ education.
7. Governmental Programs:
Efforts were made to advance education by the South Sudanese government and international organizations.
Investment in education is crucial for the prosperity of the nation.

QUESTION
Description
Infographic/poster (or something more interactive): an infographic displaying information and explaining your topic.
GRADING:
Note! Unlike most assignments in this class, these points are not automatic – a grade of 50/50 reflects an interesting, creative project that includes a lot of relevant material. If these points are important to you, I encourage you to put some effort into the project.
30 for content – is it accurate and interesting? how much material do you include? do you have appropriate sources? Note that you should not spend much time repeating content that was covered in class.
20 for presentation – is it clear and well-organized? is it creative and entertaining?
There is also a writeup (10 points) due by midnight May 1, and there will be assignments in class on April 26 and May 1. One of these assignments will be presenting your project to the class; the others will be providing feedback on other projects.
TOPIC:
Your paper can be a good starting point – I hope it’s something you find interesting! But if there’s something else you wish we’d been able to spend more time on, this could be a great way of learning a little about the topic. This could be an event (Rwandan genocide) or topic (inequality in Brazil) relating specifically to a country, or it could be a topic that applies to multiple countries (child labor).
