Other Household Survey [hh/oth]
We use data from a large Randomized Control Trial to evaluate the impact of Mobile Pedagogical Tutors on the education outcomes of students in 3rd to 6th grade in a community-based schooling model in rural Mexico, where the regular instructors are low educated non-professionals from the community. The mobile tutors devote their time providing a) pedagogical support to the instructors, b) one to one tutoring to the students lagging behind and c) home visits to parents. The pilot was started in Fall 2014 and we collected survey data two years after the program inception (Spring 2016), to study the program's impact on student assessments, parent reported measure of socio-emotional well-being, as well as data on the mediating factors including student effort, parental involvement and pedagogical practices. We complement survey data with administrative data on transitions from primary to secondary.
