I found this image through the Google Image search database, this image/chart depicts international literacy rates. The small key in the right hand corner shows the percentages of nations that are leading and failing in educating their adults and children to read. The navy color depicts the most successful nations with a 97% literacy rate and the red indicates the failing nations, with a literacy rate of 50% or less.
I chose this image because it is consistent with my overall theme of children’s literature, in addition to the fact that it addresses the serious needs that are not being met in some underprivileged countries.
The original image can be found at: http://www.scholarshipsforkids.org/what/where.php.

Program data were collected to identify how the role competencies might be bundled within graduate courses; the specializations that could be built on these; and benchmark characteristics of quality programs. Initially, North American institutions that have an IT program with a strong reputation for quality or innovation were identified through the literature and WWW presence. Additional criteria for the selection of programs included recent doctoral graduates, and 3 or more full time faculty. This was determined on the basis of the quantitative data available for the 19 selected programs from Educational Media and Technology Yearbook, 1985-1997 and Peterson's Graduate programs in the humanities, arts & social sciences,
