Yemen Innovations in Technology-Assisted Learning for Educational Quality (INTALEQ)

The INTALEQ (INnovations in Technology-Assisted Learning for Educational Quality) project is a public/private partnership initiative that will help Yemeni students “step up” to the future by giving them a chance to master the types of skills necessary to flourish in the 21st century. INTALEQ (which means “step up” or launch in Arabic) offers a replicable model for leveraging the power and pull of technology, not just to teach computer and internet skills, but to improve core teaching and learning in Yemeni high schools, particularly in the essential areas of math and science. INTALEQ’s overarching goal is improved acquisition of 21st century skills by Yemeni high school students, so that they are better equipped to find work, live productive lives and contribute to Yemen’s development as a stable and prosperous democracy. INTALEQ will be implemented in a total of 20 schools in Sana’a, Ta’iz, Mukalla and Aden over a one year period. INTALEQ partners include the Yemeni Ministry of Education, U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), the Haile Saeed Group, the Al Awn Foundation, and the Yemeni Ministry of Communication, Intel, Curriki and Education Development Center, Inc.
