7. Better Chinese Option Background Traditional vs. Simplified Why Traditional MIPs in US Market – majority is Simplified Implications Finding Traditional Chinese Curriculum is going to be challenging Finding Common Core & Traditional Chinese is going to be even more challenging Better Chinese Next Generation Curriculum Tied to Common Core, but it’s in Simplified Chinese Includes framework for weekly / daily lessons plans Printed & Digital Content Not completely built-out to its entirety Approximately $64,000 for 2014/15 Better Chinese Next Gen Product in Traditional Chinese For delivery in Sept. 2015, need to start development in Jan. 2015 Requires a development fee of $100K - $150K (T&Cs negotiable), plus the cost of the materials Options: 1.Pay for the entire development fee ourselves 2.Get other Traditional Chinese Schools interested & have them be part of a collective bargaining deal
