EDC was created 50 years ago to improve math and science teaching and learning in the US, and first worked in Africa in 1962 on the Africa Primary Science and Math Programs. Today, EDC continues to integrate research, policy and practice, informed by the best U.S. and international thinking. We are teachers, professional development experts, health and social science professionals, researchers, scientists, and management and technology specialists, dedicated to hands-on learning that makes a difference in the lives of our fellow learners, teachers, and leaders.
EDC is using low-cost, low-power devices such as MP3 players to bring educational programming to those who are beyond the reach of radio.
