Laboratório de Educação (Labedu) will transition its successful Aprender a Estudar Textos (AET) methodology from a direct service model with fourth- and fifth-grade teachers to a framework that prepares pedagogical coordinators in the education system to serve as program instructors. The program will be implemented in municipalities in two Brazilian states.
