The people of the altiplano (Andean highland plateau at around 13,000 feet above sea level) are the epitome of physical strength, ancient wisdom, and tenacity of character.

After a brief discussion of schooling practices in pre-Soviet Central Asia, …

To accomplish this purpose a review ofliterature related to charter schools and their development was conducted followed by a mail reply survey.

As a result of this study a comprehensive conceptual set of guidelines were developed.
