PR2 – Establishment of an automated monitoring and evaluation system for collecting, collating, manipulating and analyzing data on progress indicators of the SO4 framework as well as other program elements.
PR3 – Identification and development of a functioning structure for utilizing a combination of satellite transmission, commercial radio, community radio and/or cassettes and CDs to transmit educational messages to in-school and out-of-school audiences.
PR4 – Instructional radio (with a geographic focus) in math and Creole for 2nd, 3rd and 4th graders, with the possibility of extending beyond these subjects and these audiences to include content for out-of-school youth and/or adults.
