  educational assessments of the childrens general
  intelligence and achievement in reading, math,
  writing, and spelling. 
• Students prepare reports in Spanish for the nuns
  and teachers of the children.
• Undergraduate students develop teaching materials
  and methods based on the assessment results and
  work directly with the children and their
  teachers in increasing their academic
  performance.

  accomplishments and educational growth for the
  orphans.

Building Stoves in Peru
Over half of Perus 25 million people live in
poverty. A majority of Peruvians cook indoors on
open flames. By installing fuel-efficient stoves
with proper ventilation, Go-Global students
helped reduce the amount of wood consumed by
community members and reduced illnesses related
to smoke inhalation.

WTAMU Go Global 2008 Peru installed over 100
clean burning stoves in rural, Peruvian homes
