"Ecuador- Educational System- Overview" http://education.stateuniversity.com/pages/400/Ecuador-EDUCATIONAL-SYSTEM-OVERVIEW.html
This article gives us some insight on the education in Ecuador starting in the nineteenth century.It starts off telling us that Ecuador's educational structure was under the control of the Catholic Church. We learn that due to this the school environment was very strict and harsh, teacher's were not allowed to teach anything that would be considered different than what the church believed. School years were spread differently , primary schools education consisted of only religious and moral education , reading, writing, Spanish, and weights and measurements. Secondary school differed from location and school and it's curriculum varied on different subject matters.

This article is very similar to the one above, except for the fact that it focuses on what schools in N.YC. are like. It goes through the criteria. We learn about different schols, what they teach, the way they teach it and why. We learn about school days, vacations , and days off. Based off of this website we can see the different structure of schools, we see what is expected from each school in any part of n.yc.

This article focuses on discussing the dop out rate in many schools, i found this article interesting because i would like to compare the drop outrates from both Ecuador and N.Y.C. Thought this article gives some number on drop-out rates it didnt have much information , i couldnt find anything else that can make me compare and see what typical school life is like.

* im having alot of trouble finding articles that help me in the topic i have chosen, taking this into consideration i am looking into changing my topic or making it a bit more clear*
