2008 Consultation Report

At the April consultation, delegates voiced the need to learn from each other and “not re-invent the wheel” when taking on a project to assist Christian education in another country. James Vreugdenhil has shared such a model about his work in Niger, “The Effects of the SIM Christian Teacher Training Program on the Classroom Teaching-Learning Process.” Read the report.
