Assessment for Learning

Jump! Foundation

Interesting site promoting their student enrichment programmes focusing on leadership skills development; 'Inspire, Engage, Empower'.

Contains some good ideas for activities that could be used as ice-breakers. Also contains useful instructions on how to create a goal diamond that can be used for setting goals, priorities or used in decision making.

The JUMP! Foundation envisions a world where young people fulfill their true potential as individuals, community leaders, and global citizens. To this end, we facilitate a variety of in-school (JUMP!Schools) and outdoor experience (JUMP!Experiences) programs intended to broaden students’ horizons and provide them with effective leadership strategies. Through our JUMP!Development Projects, JUMP! also partners with outside organizations to support initiatives to empower underprivileged and marginalized youth around the world.
