Description

We are examining the changes in neuroplasticity as children and adults become literate for the very first time, in Papua New Guinea. With a literacy rate of 4.4%, we have EEG machines, working in tandem with lieracy programs. Our long term work will use Using EdTech to promote literacy  in Africa.
