Jeffrey Schulz is a PhD student at the University of Minnesota in Educational Policy and Administration with heavy leanings toward Comparative International Development of Education. His research interests lie in the futures of education, particularly at the secondary level.

Additionally, he has extensive teaching experience in urban education, and is currently working for BlueSky Charter School, Minnesota’s first fully online high school. He has been teaching English and has just accepted a position as the school’s Curriculum Coordinator.

For those of us who love travel and are interested in international development issues, perhaps the concept of sustainable tourism is of interest to you! I have a friend working in Cambodia on a sustainable tourism project. If you are looking for an adventure, perhaps consider looking into these types of projects. Sustainable Travel International is a good start. If you have been on such a tour, please share….

While doing research with Dr. Edward Brantmeier, I ran across this interesting information from Cole and Crawford (2007) in an article called “Building peace through information and communication technologies.” The table below details some of the authors’ main points.

Dr. Jayson W. Richardson is a recent graduate of the University of Minnesota with a focus on comparative and international development education. His research interests include information and communication technology for development and technology leadership in less developed nations. He conducted his dissertation research on an ICT in education project while working at UNESCO in Cambodia. He currently works as a Project Manager and International Development Coordinator for Seward Inc.

Over the next week, Jayson will explore the impact of technology on education in less developed states.
