New Website for Dropout Prevention: Learning to Finish Campaign
Posted by on February 12, 2007
As part of the Learning to Finish Campaign, the Pew Partnership for Civic Change recently created a wiki website that concerned citizens and practitioners can use to contribute information regarding the dropout epidemic, possible solutions and case studies from schools and communities. A wiki is a special form of website that allows users to add new information and edit existing entries. Users can create a free account in less than a minute to begin sharing what they know.
The address of the website is http://www.learningtofinish.org.
The Pew Partnership for Civic Change is a nonprofit civic research group dedicated to helping communities promote healthy families, develop thriving neighborhoods, create living wage jobs, and grow vibrant economies in order to ensure a high quality of life for all residents. The wiki website was created as part of our Learning to Finish Campaign which seeks to address the dropout epidemic by bringing the resources of entire communities to bear on the problem. For more information on the campaign visit the Pew Partnership website at http://www.pew-partnership.org/whatsnew.
We hope you will take a moment to explore this new resource.
