「EFA2000評価・世界的総括(Education for All2000 Assessment Global Synthesis)」は, 「万人のための教育」へ向けた1990年以来の取り組みの現実的な成果を評価しつつも, 基礎教育を取り巻くさまざまな問題が未解決であることを指摘する。本研究においては, EFAへ向けた取り組みとしてユネスコと広島大学が共同で行った「遠隔地小学校児童のための識字教材開発」プロジェクトの内実を考察し, その意義を3点あげた。すなわち, ①問題指向型の識字教材内容, ②授業の改善のためのネットワークの構築, ③異なる教材観, 授業観の間の対話である。また, EFAを現実のものとするために克服すべき課題が「ダカール行動の枠組み(The Dakar Framework for Action)」の記述の中に内包されていることを指摘した。

The roll of education in aid strategies has changed in different ways in the history of 'development' in developing countries. It has been regarded as a fruit of economic development, a precondition of economic development, one of the essentials in social development and a significant target in human development. However, 'Basic Education for All' has been a common agenda in all developing countries and their donors since 1990. The eradication of illiteracy is one of the objectives of 'Basic Education for All'.

This paper introduces one of the literacy projects implemented by APPEAL (Asia-Pacific Programme for Education for All) and Hiroshima University. The aim of the project was to develop literacy materials for the improvement of primary education, especially in rural areas. From the description of workshops in mathematics education, the following significant points, and problems, of the project have appeared. (i) Problem-oriented teaching materials. (ii) The establishment of a network to improve lessons. (iii) Dialogue between different views of teaching materials and lessons based on socio-cultural backgrounds.
