			== Dominica in a nutshell ==
			(sourced from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dominica)

			''Dominica'' (French: '''Dominique''') officially the '''Commonwealth of Dominica''', is an island nation in the [[Caribbean]] Sea. To the north-northwest lies [[Guadeloupe]], to the southeast [[Martinique]].

			Its size is 754 square kilometres (291 sq mi) and the highest point in the country is Morne Diablotins, which has an elevation of 1,447 metres (4,750 ft).

			The Commonwealth of Dominica has an estimated population of 72,500.

			The capital is Roseau.

			Dominica has been nicknamed the "Nature Isle of the Caribbean" for its seemingly unspoiled natural beauty. It is the youngest island in the Lesser Antilles, still being formed by geothermal-volcanic activity, as evidenced by the world's second-largest boiling lake. The island features lush mountainous rainforests, home of many very rare plant, animal, and bird species. There are xeric areas in some of the western coastal regions, but heavy rainfall can be expected inland. The Sisserou parrot, the island's national bird, is featured on the national flag. Dominica's economy is heavily dependent on both tourism and agriculture.



			== Dominica education policy ==


			== Schools in Dominica ==
			(sourced from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dominica)

			Dominica has its own state college, formerly named Clifton Dupigny Community College.

			Some Dominicans get scholarships from the Cuban government to attend universities in [[Cuba]]. Others go to the [[University of the West Indies]] or to schools in the [[United Kingdom]], the [[United States]], or other countries for higher education.


			== Higher education ==


			=== Universities in Dominica ===

			Ross University, a medical school, is located at Portsmouth - http://www.rossu.edu

			The Archbold Tropical Research and Education Center, a biological field station owned by Clemson University, is located at Springfield Estate between Canefield and Pond Cassé.

			In 2006, another medical school called All Saints University of Medicine opened in temporary facilities in Loubiere, with a permanent campus being constructed in Grand Bay. Currently All Saints is located in Roseau, Dominica.

			There is also a marine biology school in Mahaut, I.T.M.E (Institute for Tropical Marine Ecology), 15 minutes north of Roseau.

			Students in Dominica have made use of [[Notesmaster.com]] to access material produced by the [[E-Learning Jamaica Company Limited]] to aid them in their studies with the provsion of materials such as past papers and practice tests. With the May - June 2011 CSEC® examinations on the horizon, CSEC® students in Dominica will be able to access a variety of short multiple choice exercises as well as longer timed tests. This comes at the appropriate time in the education cycle when the clamour for past papers and practice tests are at their peak. Through making the materials available on Notesmaster, more students will be able to practice and receive real-time feedback as all answers are provided at the point of submission. http://www.thedominican.net/2011/04/increased-resources-for-students.html
