Edument, The Edument Organization for Education Development
Edument.org facilitates research in comparative and international education development.
We provide a medium for educators, researchers, policy-makers, and other stakeholders to examine international education systems, divergent conceptions of early childhood through secondary education, cross-cultural perspectives on teaching and learning, and comparative school settings, learning materials, and curriculums.
Material for Edument is collected from educators worldwide. Through studying essays, photography, interviews, visual art, videos, podcasts and other forms of media provided by the participation of our contributors, we may better comprehend the diversity of educational systems and reconcile often competing educational paradigms. In addition, through global collaboration and sharing, we may enhance our own methodologies and views, and achieve a greater understanding of education’s role in cultural, socio-political, and economic development.

April 2009-- Educators: The Edument Team is now accepting curriculum for the World Curriculum Project. Enter for a chance to publish your curriculum! Please see the World Curriculum Project link for more information, rules, application and project guide.
Dear teachers, instructional designers and curriculum developers:
We welcome you to contribute your knowledge, resources and skills to the World Curriculum Project. The aim of the project is to create a compilation of curriculum for a broad base of subject areas that is free to the public for information purposes or classroom implementation. We aspire to create one of the world’s premiere instructional resources for global educators: a compilation that is borderless, liberated from national bureaucracy, cross-curricular, and freely available to educators and students around the globe. In a nutshell: we hope it will be an instructional compilation made by educators around the globe for educators around the globe. The project will contribute to international dialogue on comparative education and development, will broaden the curriculum available to teachers, and will be an excellent way to share and learn about other cultures, traditions, teaching methodologies and theories of learning. We encourage you to take part in this unique opportunity!
