The three institutions jointly implemented a mobile education intervention whose 5-country evaluation results translate to around 3.4 years of quality schooling gained during an eight-week intervention.</p> <p>To mitigate learning losses due to COVID-19, IPA Philippines, in partnership with the Department of Education (DepEd) and the NGO Youth Impact, tested a simple, cost-effective intervention focused on foundational literacy, called mEducation* (mobile phone + education). The study enlisted 3,492 Grade 3 and Grade 4 students from 110 schools across Regions IV-B, VI, and IX.</p> <p>The results are staggering: The program led to a significant 40 percent increase in children’s math skills in the Philippines. It also increased the proportion of students who could solve math problems across all basic operations. For every 100 participating students, there were 6 more students who were able to solve the math problems compared to those who did not receive the program. Similarly,  for every 100 participants,18 more students could correctly complete the subtraction problems than in the group that did not receive the intervention, 18 more for multiplication, and 13 more for division. Due to the high ownership of cell phones, the primary expenses associated with the mEducation program were the production and delivery of its content to families, with an average cost per student of USD $12 for 8 weeks of intervention across the 5 countries.</p> <p>“These are profoundly important results,” said Aftab Opel, IPA Philippines country office director. “The mEducation program cost little but produced significant learning gains. And just as important, mEducation’s effectiveness has been proven through rigorous testing.”</p> <p>mEducation uses simple text messages and phone calls to deliver instructions. Participating students received a 20-minute weekly phone call tutorial targeted to their level, plus a weekly text message containing simple math exercises or nudges to encourage parental engagement.</p> <p>First implemented in Botswana, the Philippine implementation is part of a global effort to replicate the intervention in five countries: India, Kenya, Nepal, Philippines, and Uganda.</p> <p>What differentiates mEducation from other mobile education interventions is that it only requires basic mobile phones; there are no applications to be downloaded. Its approach combines elements of tutoring and Teaching at the Right Level (TARL), methods proven to improve learning outcomes. To illustrate, if a learner is struggling with subtraction, the topic for the week will be subtraction and the learner will not be promoted to the higher operation (multiplication) until he/she has mastered the current operation. Mastery of an operation means correctly solving the problem and explaining the solution.</p> <p>The intervention was rigorously tested twice in the Philippines. Students were randomly assigned to one of three groups: a control group that did not receive the program, a group that received both phone calls and SMS, and an SMS-only group. This made it possible to determine whether both components (SMS and phone calls) are necessary to achieve a positive impact. The second evaluation varied whether the program was implemented by IPA or DepEd to assess whether the effectiveness of the program is affected by who delivers it, and to evaluate its feasibility for implementation by the government.</p> <p>The program’s consistently positive impact on learning gains, regardless of whether instruction was delivered by teacher aides or actual DepEd teachers, shows the intervention can be adopted successfully by government teachers. It disproves the notion that programs often work when delivered by NGOs but fail to replicate when scaled by governments.</p> <p>“The mEducation program offers many opportunities to be integrated into the existing learning approaches concurrent with the desire of DepEd to produce research-based interventions,” said Cerilo Illaga Jr., senior education program specialist of the Schools Division of Calapan City. “Given how students in the Philippines suffered from lost schooling during COVID-19, mEducation offers an alternative way to improve numeracy skills. It can be adopted as one of the strategies to complement other distance learning modalities to provide additional learning support to students. Similarly, it can be part of DepEd’s remedial education program to target instruction of learners, especially those who are falling behind in classes. It can also be implemented not only during school closures for COVID-19 but also for other forms of disruptions, such as typhoons, earthquakes, and other disasters.”</p> <center>-END-</center>

Educate! is in the process of scaling its model and working with nearly 50,000 youth through its direct delivery programs and reaching as many as 500,000 students through its education reform partnerships in Uganda, Rwanda, and Kenya, with plans to replicate its model across sub-Saharan Africa.</p> <div class="dnd-atom-wrapper type-image context-sdl_editor_representation" contenteditable="false"> <div class="dnd-drop-wrapper"><!-- THEME DEBUG --><!-- THEME HOOK: 'image' --><!-- BEGIN OUTPUT from 'core/themes/classy/templates/field/image.html.twig' --><img alt="Educate photo_Cartier credit_small_6.jpg" src="/sites/default/files/thumbnails/image/Educate%20photo_Cartier%20credit_small_6_0.jpg" title="Educate photo_Cartier credit_small_6.jpg" typeof="foaf:Image" /><!-- END OUTPUT from 'core/themes/classy/templates/field/image.html.twig' --></div> <div class="dnd-legend-wrapper" contenteditable="true"> </div> </div> <p> </p> <h2>The Challenge</h2> <p>Education systems in Africa face many challenges in equipping students with the skills needed to be successful in adulthood. While secondary schools are largely fee-based and require substantial investments for poorer families, graduates face few formal employment opportunities and often lack the entrepreneurial skills required to start or operate their own small businesses. Teaching students the skills required to be successful in life or to compete in the formal labor market has the potential to reduce youth unemployment, drive economic growth, and reduce poverty. But whether such skills can be taught is an open question and a policy priority.</p> <h2>The Evidence</h2> <p>Researchers (Dana Carney (UC Berkeley), Laura Chioda (World Bank), David Contreras (UC Berkeley), and Paul Gertler (UC Berkeley)) partnered with IPA and Educate! to conduct a randomized evaluation of the Educate! Experience program, a leadership and social entrepreneurship skill development program for youth in their last two years of secondary education. The program was successfully implemented during the 2012-2013 school years. A follow-up survey was conducted in 2017 to analyze the impact of the program on students’ skills, economic outcomes, educational attainment, community involvement, and gender empowerment outcomes in Uganda. The study also investigated whether the program impacted gender social norms and intimate partner violence (IPV)-related outcomes.</p> <p>Four years after the intervention, researchers found that the Educate! Experience program had strong and meaningful impacts on Educate! graduates’ intra- and inter-personal soft skills such as creativity, grit, ability to manage stress, persuasion, and self-efficacy. Educate! graduates appear to focus more on long-term goals and report being more in control of aspects of their lives, as well as more empowered to implement actions towards achieving their plans.</p> <p>Educate! graduates were also more likely to have graduated from secondary school, and more likely to select business and STEM majors in tertiary education. Female graduates were more likely to be enrolled in or to have completed tertiary education. In addition, program graduates reported having fewer sexual partners, being less sexually active, and waiting longer to start a family than non-graduates. They also expressed reduced social acceptability of violence and reported fewer threats of and lower incidence of physical violence. The program had limited impacts on knowledge of graduates’ hard skills such as business knowledge. Educate! graduates were, however, more knowledgeable about identifying opportunities for business and win-win strategies and better at deliberative dialogue compared to those in the comparison group.</p> <p>At the time of the four-year follow-up, the new skills had not translated into higher rates of employment or higher wages, earnings, revenues, or profits relative to the comparison group. However, it is important to note that more than one-third of the youth in the study sample were still pursuing education at the time of the four-year follow-up. It is therefore too early to assess whether the program impacts labor market outcomes; a longer-term follow up is needed. As highlighted above, the Educate! program led to important changes in youths’ mindset, soft skills, and investments in education, dimensions typically positively correlated with economic outcomes.</p> <h2>The Impact</h2> <p>In keeping with a history of using evidence to inform program design, Educate! is using these results to update the program’s curriculum. Following recommendations from the researchers and lessons from other studies, Educate! has planned key revisions of the curriculum including adding negotiation skills modules, strengthening the focus on business and career planning, exploring new modalities to remain engaged with youth during high school and after they graduate from secondary school.</p> <p>Educate! also plans to integrate aspects of another evidence-backed entrepreneurship model, called Skills for Effective Entrepreneurship Development (SEED), into its work. The same team of researchers who completed the 4-year evaluation of Educate! also studied the impacts of SEED, a three-week intensive mini-MBA program implemented at-scale as a randomized controlled trial immediately following high school completion. SEED builds on Educate!’s soft skills curriculum and is modeled after western business school curricula that were adapted to the Ugandan context. A recent three-year follow-up study of SEED showed that it led to improvements in youth’s skills and economic outcomes (e.g., wages, likelihood of starting a business, business survival, etc.). Overall, SEED led approximately to a 31 percent increase in cumulative youth earnings over the 3.5 years.</p> <p>Educate! serves as a model for other organizations because of its commitment to generating and applying rigorous evidence, whether from evaluations of its own programs or from those of similar interventions, to ensure greater and sustained impact for the youth. The policy relevance of the evidence generated is significant. Educate! is in the process of scaling its model and working with nearly 50,000 youth through its direct delivery programs and reaching as many as 500,000 students through its education reform partnerships in Uganda, Rwanda, and Kenya, with plans to replicate its model across Sub-Saharan Africa.</p> <p><strong><em>This research was made possible through funding from the Hewlett Foundation

It’s a universal question, but one that has particular relevance in sub-Saharan Africa, where high school graduates face very limited formal job opportunities and often aren’t equipped with the relevant skills and knowledge to start their own businesses. Women face particular challenges in the educational, economic, and social spheres. One way to address these challenges may be to teach students the hard and soft skills required to be successful in their future work and lives. But can these skills, particularly soft skills—like self-control, persuasion, creativity, and grit—be taught to adolescents, and if so, what happens for youth who are equipped with these new skills? <b>New and exciting results from a four-year evaluation shed light on these questions, offering new insights into what works.</b><br /><br /> On January 16, 2020, IPA hosted an interactive webinar on <b>The Skills We Really Need: The Impacts of a Soft Skills and Entrepreneurship Program for Secondary School Students in Uganda</b>. In this webinar, <b>Laura Chioda (World Bank)</b> and <b>Paul Gertler (University of California, Berkeley)</b> presented on the 4-year findings from a randomized evaluation in Uganda of the Educate! Experience program, a social leadership and entrepreneurship skill development program targeting students during the last two years of secondary school. <strong>Meghan Mahoney</strong> and <strong>Hawah Nabbuye</strong> (Educate!) presented on the program and Educate!’s motivation for the evaluation, and <b>Heidi McAnnally-Linz (IPA)</b> moderated a discussion and Q&amp;A following the presentations.<br /><br /><b>Presenters:</b></p> <ul><li><b><a data-linkto="https://" href="https://www.poverty-action.org/people/laura-chioda" target="_blank" title="Laura Chioda">Laura Chioda</a>, </b><i>Senior Economist, The World Bank</i></li> <li><b><a data-linkto="https://" href="https://www.poverty-action.org/people/paul-gertler" target="_blank" title="Paul Gertler">Paul Gertler</a></b>, <i>Li Ka Shing Professor of Economics, Haas School of Business, University of California, Berkeley</i></li> <li><b><a data-linkto="https://" href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/meghan-mahoney-0624288/" target="_blank" title="Meghan Mahoney">Meghan Mahoney</a></b><i>, Director of Monitoring and Evaluation, Educate!</i></li> <li><a href="https://ug.linkedin.com/in/hawah-nabbuye-3243ba5b" target="_blank"><strong>Hawah Nabbuye</strong></a><em>, Deputy Country Director (Uganda), Educate!</em></li> <li><b><a data-linkto="https://" href="https://www.poverty-action.org/people/heidi-mcannally-linz" target="_blank" title="Heidi McAnnally-Linz">Heidi McAnnally-Linz</a></b><i>, Director of Policy and Communications, IPA</i></li> </ul><p><strong>Watch the webcast recording below:</strong></p> <p><iframe allow="autoplay;

School is one of the most common settings where children and adolescents may experience violence; and in some countries, school staff may be one of the most common perpetrators of violence against children. Levels of violence may be higher in humanitarian settings, where people are displaced and teachers and children may have recent histories of trauma. While this violence is associated with negative outcomes for students, little evidence exists on how to shift this harmful behavior, particularly within humanitarian settings. In partnership with the International Rescue Committee and Behavioral Insights Team, researchers are evaluating the impact of a school-based program, which utilizes principles of cognitive behavioral therapy, on physical and emotional violence perpetrated by teachers on students, students’ mental health outcomes, and test scores.</p> <h2>Policy Issue</h2><p>Corporal punishment is linked to physical injury, interference with children’s learning and mental health and behavioral issues.<sub><a href="#_ftn1" name="_ftnref1" title="" id="_ftnref1">[1]</a> </sub>Globally, nearly one billion children experience regular physical punishment by their caregivers,<sub><a href="#_ftn2" name="_ftnref2" title="" id="_ftnref2">[2]</a></sub> and school is one of the most common settings where children experience such violence.<sub><a href="#_ftn3" name="_ftnref3" title="" id="_ftnref3">[3]</a></sub> Emerging evidence suggests that in some settings, school staff may be one of the most common perpetrators of violence against children.<sub><a href="#_ftn4" name="_ftnref4" title="" id="_ftnref4">[4]</a></sub></p> <p>Despite the prevalence of emotional and physical violence in schools and the negative outcomes associated with the practice, little evidence exists on how to shift the attitudes and behaviors that condone or support corporal punishment, particularly in crisis-affected contexts. The Good School Toolkit in Uganda, and the Irie Classroom Toolbox in Jamaica are exceptions, but were implemented in low-resource, stable, non-emergency settings. These programs were effective in reducing physical and emotional violence from school staff to students.<sub><a href="#_ftn5" name="_ftnref5" title="" id="_ftnref5">[5]</a> <a href="#_ftn6" name="_ftnref6" title="" id="_ftnref6">[6]</a> </sub></p> <p>Levels of corporal punishment and violence could be higher in emergency settings, where people have been displaced and have recent histories of trauma, though little data is available on the prevalence of violence against children in schools in refugee camps. This study will provide the first evidence on an intervention designed to curb corporal punishment in schools in a humanitarian setting.</p> <h2>Context of the Evaluation</h2><p>As of 2018, Tanzania hosts approximately 330,000 refugees and asylum-seekers who have fled conflict in Burundi and the Democratic Republic of Congo.<sub><a href="#_ftn1" name="_ftnref1" title="" id="_ftnref1">[7]</a> </sub> The majority of refugees and asylum seekers in Tanzania reside in refugee camps in the Kigoma region, where access to basic services is limited. Nyarugusu refugee camp, where this evaluation takes place, is one of the largest refugee camps in the world, with a population of 153,024 as of 2018.<sub><a href="#_ftn2" name="_ftnref2" title="" id="_ftnref2">[8]</a></sub> Like in many refugee camps, there is a large youth population in Nyarugusu; 55 percent of Nyarugusu’s refugees and asylum seekers are under seventeen years old. <sub><a href="#_ftn3" name="_ftnref3" title="" id="_ftnref3">[9]</a></sub></p> <p>The International Rescue Committee (IRC) administers schools, educational programs, and child protection response in Tanzania’s refugee camps, among other services. Through initial formative research, the IRC and the Behavioral Insights Team (BIT) found that many teachers in Nyarugusu perceived physical punishment as a means to prepare students for adulthood, teach respect for elders, and guide them to a better future.<sub><a href="#_ftn4" name="_ftnref4" title="" id="_ftnref4">[10]</a></sub> Following this formative research phase, the IRC and BIT partnered to design EmpaTeach, a multi-faceted school-based program that utilizes principles from cognitive behavioral therapy to promote shifts in teachers’ thoughts, attitudes, and behaviors related to corporal punishment.</p> <p>The IRC conducted a small-scale pilot of EmpaTeach in two schools in Mtendeli refugee camp. Findings show a lower incidence of physical and emotional violence in schools exposed to the program, as self-reported by students. Researchers also found that students in program schools reported feeling more connected, less depressed, and more engaged in school than students in non-program schools. The small-scale pilot did not evaluate the impact of EmpaTeach.</p> <h2>Details of the Intervention</h2><p>In partnership with the IRC and BIT, researchers and IPA are evaluating the impact of EmpaTeach on physical violence committed by teachers against students. Researchers will also assess the impact of the program on depressive symptoms among students, their experience of emotional violence, and educational test scores, as secondary outcomes of interest. The evaluation is complemented by a qualitative component and a cost-effectiveness analysis.</p> <p>The 27 primary and secondary schools in Nyarugusu camp will be randomly assigned to one of two groups:</p> <p>1. EmpaTeach group: Teachers in these schools will be offered the opportunity to participate in groups that meet fourteen times for one to one-and-a-half hour length sessions led by their peers over the course of ten weeks. Peer leaders use cognitive behavioral therapy techniques to shift teachers’ negative thought and behavior patterns related to corporal punishment through the following activities:</p> <ul><li>providing information on the harmful effects of corporal punishment on children, reflection exercises intended to build empathy for children, and alternatives to corporal punishment</li> <li>building action plans to respond to student behavior</li> <li>exercises that focus on improving teacher emotional regulation</li> <li>facilitating group sessions, where teachers can receive social support from other participants and discuss their experiences and challenges of teaching</li> <li>receiving text messages that reinforce the messages from the sessions</li> <li>take home assignments that take roughly thirty minutes to complete</li> </ul><p>2. Comparison group: These schools will not receive the intervention during the evaluation period, but will receive it in the future if research findings demonstrate that it has positive outcomes.  </p> <p>The research team will conduct surveys with teachers and students before EmpaTeach is initiated, immediately after the program is completed, and at least six months after the end of the program. The research team will also conduct in-depth interviews with headteachers and other community stakeholders, and focus group discussions with teachers and students.</p> <h2>Results and Policy Lessons</h2><p>Evaluation ongoing; results forthcoming</p> <h2>Sources</h2><p><a href="#_ftnref1" name="_ftn1" title="" id="_ftn1">[1]</a> Gershoff, Elizabeth T. <em>School Corporal Punishment in Global Perspective: Prevalence, Outcomes, and Efforts at Intervention.</em> Psychology, Health &amp; Medicine, 2017, 224-39. doi:10.1080/13548506.2016.1271955.</p> <p><a href="#_ftnref2" name="_ftn2" title="" id="_ftn2">[2]</a> UNICEF 2014.

challenges in ensuring that children attend school due to high school fees and a mismatch in the timing of when fees are due and when income is earned. Researchers are evaluating the impact of a digital school fee loan, with and without a direct repayment incentive, on repayment rates, households’ well-being, and students’ educational outcomes.</p> <h2>Policy Issue</h2><p>Despite evidence supporting the many benefits of education, globally there are 124 million children between the ages of six and fifteen who are not in school.<sup>1</sup> The inability to pay fees and other education expenses may be why many of these children are out of school. Beyond the cost of education, low-income families may face other challenges in paying their children’s tuition. Making payments is time consuming and inconvenient, as paying school fees involves a significant amount of time traveling to and from the bank and standing in long lines. The school fee payment schedule also makes it difficult for those with irregular income patterns. While fees are typically required at the beginning of the term, incomes are often seasonal and irregular. Finally, many low-income households have limited access to financial services that could help manage this expense. Financial service providers are beginning to offer a range of digital savings and loan products that help families manage the cost of education. This study contributes to research on how mobile payments and digital finance can affect households’ economic well-being and students’ educational outcomes.</p> <h2>Context of the Evaluation</h2><p>In Uganda, 53 percent of families report having their children sent home because they are not able to pay school fees.<sup>2</sup> Rural Ugandans face major challenges in ensuring that children attend school, as most schools in rural Uganda are private and school fees account for a significant fraction of household income. However, there is a mismatch between when school fees are due and when households earn income, as many rural Ugandans are farmers and two of the three school terms lie outside a significant harvest season. Households have limited access to financial services to help with educational expenses: thirty-four percent of the population has no access to any form of credit (formal or informal), while 45 percent of them have sold assets prematurely to pay for educational expenses.<sup>3</sup> This project aims to increase access to education for households in rural Uganda through a sustainable intervention that combines technology with innovative financial contracting.</p> <p>Researchers are partnering with Fenix International, the largest solar home system provider in Uganda. Their flagship product, ReadyPay Power, is a lease-to-own solar home system providing lighting, phone charging, TV, and radio, financed through affordable installments paid through mobile money. They combine customer payment histories with additional data sources to create a credit score that enables those living off-grid to access power upgrades and other loans. </p> <h2>Details of the Intervention</h2><p>Researchers are working with Fenix International to evaluate the impact of a post-primary school fee loan called the ReadyPay School Fees Loan on repayment rates, households’ well-being, and students’ educational outcomes. Using customer repayment data from solar loans, Fenix pre-approves certain customers for term-length education loans. These loans are made available approximately two weeks leading up to a school term and two weeks following the start of the term, and are disbursed directly to a customer’s mobile wallet. </p> <p>Researchers will randomly assign 71,600 Fenix customers into the following groups. Customers in the process of paying for the solar home system (in-repayment) are required to make a non-refundable UGX 20,000 deposit before they receive the loan, while customers who completed payment for the solar home system are required to make a UGX 50,000 deposit:</p> <p><em>Customers in the process of paying for the solar home system (in-repayment)</em></p> <ol><li>Eligible customers are offered a school fee loan of UGX 100,000 with lockout technology as a direct repayment incentive, where a customer’s solar home system is locked by default and can only be unlocked when a customer makes a payment;</li> <li>Eligible customers are offered a no-deposit school fee loan of UGX 80,000 with lockout technology;</li> <li>Eligible customers are not offered loans until the study is over (comparison group).</li> </ol><p><em>Customers who completed payment for the solar home system</em></p> <ol><li>Eligible customers are offered a school fee loan of UGX 300,000;</li> <li>Eligible customers are offered a school fee loan with lockout technology; Half are randomly assigned to unexpectedly receive no lock-out;</li> <li>Eligible customers are offered a choice between a loan with or without a lockout system; and</li> <li>Eligible customers are not offered loans until the study is over (comparison group).</li> </ol><p>Researchers will conduct an initial survey in 2019 and a follow-up survey in 2020 to evaluate the impact of the intervention on loan repayment rates; households’ economic outcomes such as income, debt, and asset holdings; and students’ educational outcomes such as school enrollment, absenteeism, and test scores.</p> <h2>Results and Policy Lessons</h2><p>Study ongoing; results forthcoming.</p> <h2>Sources</h2><p><sup>1</sup>UNESCO, 2015. “A growing

unemployment rates are very high, teaching students the skills required to be successful entrepreneurs or to compete in the formal labor market has the potential to reduce youth unemployment, drive economic growth, and reduce poverty. Whether such skills – particularly soft skills – can be taught, however, is an open question. In Uganda, researchers partnered with Educate! and IPA to evaluate the impact of the Educate! Experience program, a leadership and entrepreneurship skill development program for secondary school students. Four years after the intervention, graduates’ soft skills improved relative to non-graduates, while impacts on hard skills were more limited. Participants were more likely to have graduated from secondary school and female graduates were also more likely to be enrolled in or to have completed tertiary education. In addition, Educate! graduates reported having fewer sexual partners, being less sexually active, and waiting longer to start a family than non-graduates. They also expressed reduced social acceptability of violence and reported fewer threats of and lower incidence of physical violence. </p> <p><em>These results are preliminary; final results are forthcoming</em>.</p> <h2>Policy Issue</h2> <p>Education systems in Africa face many challenges in equipping students with the skills needed to be successful in adulthood. While secondary schools are largely fee-based and require substantial investments for poorer families, graduates face few formal employment opportunities and often lack the entrepreneurial skills required to start or operate their own small businesses. Teaching students the hard and soft skills required to be successful entrepreneurs or to compete in the formal labor market has the potential to reduce youth unemployment, drive economic growth, and reduce poverty. But whether such skills can be taught is an open question and a policy priority.</p> <p>Indeed, a recent review of 28 studies relying on employer surveys across multiple countries finds that socioemotional (soft) skills are the first priority in 77 percent of the studies that rank employer skill preferences.<sup>1</sup> How malleable soft skills are in adulthood and whether training programs that aim to increase the stock of these skills can generate improvements in productivity and life-outcomes have only begun to be explored.<sup>2</sup> Most of the existing literature examines only the short-run effects of business training.<sup>3</sup> The few studies that have documented impacts over time often find that effects disappear in the longer term.<sup>4</sup> To the researchers’ knowledge, this was the first study to rigorously evaluate the long-term impacts of a skill development program for youth in school.</p> <h2>Context of the Evaluation</h2> <p>The Educate! NGO aims to enhance skills among youth to help them engage and succeed in both formal employment and entrepreneurial activities in East Africa. The Educate! Experience program is implemented during the last two years of secondary school and delivered within existing secondary schools (government, private, and community schools) by practically-trained youth mentors, who use hands-on teaching methods and practical applications in classrooms and in Student Business Clubs. The program’s goal is to develop leadership, workforce-readiness and entrepreneurship skills in secondary school students. It teaches youth soft skills including both interpersonal skills—e.g., communication and teamwork—and intra-personal skills—e.g., self-confidence, critical thinking, creativity and grit. It also teaches hard skills such as business planning, budgeting, savings, etc. (read more below)</p> <h2>Details of the Intervention</h2> <p>Researchers partnered with Educate! and IPA to conduct a clustered randomized evaluation of the Educate! Experience program in Uganda over a four-year period. The evaluation measured impacts of the program on students’ skills, economic outcomes, educational attainment, community involvement, and gender empowerment outcomes in Uganda. The study also investigated whether the Educate! Experience program impacted intimate partner violence (IPV)-related outcomes.</p> <p>Researchers randomly assigned 48 schools, stratified by district (6 districts), to either be part of the comparison group or to receive the full program. A total of 1,942 students participated in the study in those schools (966 received the program; 976 did not).</p> <p>Students in the treatment group received the full Educate! Experience program, which has three main components:</p> <p>1. A social entrepreneurship and leadership course: A 35-lesson course aimed at fostering socially responsible leadership skills, business/entrepreneurship skills, community awareness/engagement, group and individual “personal projects” such as community initiatives and businesses, and group mentorship.</p> <p>2. Mentorship: one-on-one mentoring sessions focused on personal development; once per term, the mentor holds a group mentorship session to discuss any issues with the entire class.</p> <p>3. Student Business Development Clubs: clubs focused on business development and designed to help scholars design projects that generate income.</p> <p>The program also included a teacher support training and a scholarship for qualified and accomplished candidates.</p> <p>The program was successfully implemented during the 2012-2013 school years. A follow-up survey was conducted in 2017 to measure quantitative impacts, and participants in a current relationship or in a relationship within the last 12 months prior to the survey were also administered an additional survey module focusing on couples’ decision making, gender social norms, and IPV-related outcome. Researchers used behavioral games to measure soft skills.</p> <h2>Results and Policy Lessons</h2> <p><strong>Based on preliminary results from the four-year follow-up, the program had strong and meaningful impacts on Educate! graduates’ soft skills. </strong>Educate! graduates showed large, statistically significant impacts on soft skills such as creativity, grit, ability to manage stress, and exhibited higher levels of self-efficacy (the extent to which an individual is in control of their life and empowered to take action to implement a plan). Impacts were also recorded for selected Big Five personality traits (e.g., Extroversion, Openness and Agreeableness).</p> <p><strong>Furthermore, Educate! graduates were substantially more prosocial and demonstrated higher degrees of persuasion. </strong>The study did not find any impact on political participation, community engagement, or trust in institutions, however.</p> <p><strong>The program had limited impacts on knowledge of hard skills.</strong> On average, Educate! graduates did not display more business knowledge than their comparison group counterparts. Educate! graduates were, however, more knowledgeable about identifying opportunities for business, better at deliberative dialogue, and better at identifying win-win strategies compared to those in the comparison group.</p> <p><strong>The program also had positive impacts on educational outcomes, particularly for female participants.</strong> Educate! graduates were 3.7percentage points (or 4 percent) more likely to complete high school relative to those in the comparison group. Female graduates were 8.4 percentage points (11 percent) more likely to be enrolled in tertiary education. Furthermore, Educate! graduates were more likely to select business and STEM majors in university.</p> <p><strong>At the time of the four-year follow-up the new skills had not translated into higher rates of employment (formal or self-employment) or higher wages, earnings, revenues, or profits relative to the comparison group.</strong> However, it is important to note that many graduates were still pursuing their education at the time of the follow-up (35 percent of the sample were still enrolled in tertiary education). It is therefore too early to understand whether the program impacts labor market outcomes, and a longer-term follow up is be needed. As highlighted above, the Educate! program led to important changes in youths’ mindset and soft skills, investments in education, all factors typically strongly correlated with economic outcomes.<sup>5</sup></p> <p><strong>In addition, the program generated positive social spillovers including delayed family formation, less risky behavior, shifts in social norms, and reductions in intimate partner violence</strong>. Educate! graduates were not only less likely to justify IPV, but females in the treatment group were also 6.2 percentage points less likely to report threats and incidences of physical violence (28.7 percent of women in the treatment group reported threats or incidences of violence, compared to 34.9 percent in the comparison group).</p> <p>Overall, the findings join a small but growing body of research suggesting that soft skills associated with entrepreneurial success are malleable and can be taught, and that improvements persist for years afterwards. The research team is planning 7-year follow-up to study the impact of the Educate! Experience program on labor market outcomes, among others, and shed light on the underlying mechanisms through which the intervention operates and yields lasting impacts.</p> <p><em>IPA’s Intimate Partner Violence Initiative, Global Innovation Fund (GIF), and the Hewlett Foundation provided financial support for the 4-year follow-up data collection.</em></p> <h2>Sources</h2> <div id="ftn1"> <p><sup>1.</sup> Groh et al.

students the skills required to be successful entrepreneurs or to compete in the formal labor market has the potential to reduce youth unemployment, drive economic growth, and reduce poverty.Whether such skills – particularly soft skills – can be taught, however, is an open question.In Uganda, researchers partnered with Educate! and IPA to evaluate the impact of the Educate! Experience program, a leadership and entrepreneurship skill development program for secondary school students.</p></div> </div> <!-- END OUTPUT from 'core/themes/classy/templates/field/field--text-long.html.twig' --> Thu,
