Millennium Development Goal 2: Universal Primary Education

In a world flooded by data, it's easy to neglect the deep thinking required to solve urgent problems. Data without analysis is useless. And analysis without data is disconnected from reality. Our application is built in Cognician, an Adobe AIR application. Cognician is a platform for building and sharing cogs. Cogs are collection of questions designed to make you think. We designed this cog specifically for NGOs, businesses or community members who are interested in helping achieve universal primary education in a specific region. The cog helps you think systematically through the many contextual factors influencing primary education. The questions range from a general overview of education to a worked example, based on a specific region you choose to focus on. The example enables you to spend time thinking about different contextual factors, including politics, community, environment, resources, learning and more. It refers to the World Bank data along the way. By bringing contextual factors into focus, the cog empowers you to develop relevant solutions to more comprehensively contribute towards achieving the Millennium Development Goal of universal primary education.
