Fig. 4.2 from Easterly (2001, Ch. 4 page 76) shown in class and reproduced below presents data on diverse growth\u00a0outcomes from educational expansion in Africa (1965-1985). Select one of the countries in the figure (i.e. Senegal,\u00a0<\/span>Botswana, Madagascar, Ghana or Lesotho) and write a 3-5 page report presenting relevant evidence and critical\u00a0<\/span>explanations of what happened to GDP pc and schooling (levels and growth rates) during these years.<\/span><\/p>

– You need to use\/cite at least two sources and present quantitative evidence (Tables\/Figures).<\/p>

– Your writing should be clear and your Figures\/tables should support your arguments. References: Easterly, William, The Elusive Quest for Growth: Economists\u2019 Adventures and Misadventures in the Tropics, MIT Press, Cambridge, 2001.\u00a0<\/p>
