text: 'This paper examines the governance and quality control of digital curriculum
resources (DCR) for K-12 mathematics education in Germany. It focuses on approval
processes and criteria set by the 16 federal states, arguing that these have the
potential to influence the development of DCR. Using qualitative content analysis,
the study explores three research questions: which DCR require official approval,
the criteria applied for approval, and the extent to which these criteria are
mathematics-specific. Findings indicate that 10 federal states maintain official
approval systems, covering digital equivalents of printed textbooks and selected
supplemental materials. However, most DCR fall outside these regulated processes,
leaving their evaluation largely to individual schools and teachers. The study
identifies 17 categories of quality criteria, but reveals a lack of detailed,
mathematics-specific requirements. Instead, many criteria are broad references
to didactical principles and educational goals, leaving the interpretation and
application of these quality standards open-ended. Subject-specific criteria are
included but remain limited in specificity. The study underscores the need for
research-informed, mathematics-specific quality standards to guide DCR development
and approval, emphasizing their importance amidst challenges like artificial intelligence.
Policymakers are urged to adopt clearer criteria to ensure high-quality DCR to
be used in schools.'

text: Employing a Hausman–Taylor instrument variable (HT–IV) estimator to data from
558 microfinance institutions (MFIs) in 80 developing countries for the period
from 2002 to 2007, this paper provides empirical evidence for a positive impact
of a country's external governance quality and outcome on local microbanks' economic
success in terms of profitability and sustainability. Evidence as well suggests
a negative relationship between external governance and the microbanks' social
success measured by the depth of outreach. In this context, our analysis reveals
that a country's political stability, governance effectiveness, regulatory quality
and rule of law are significant key elements of external governance affecting
the MFIs' functional performance. Moreover, results from sensitivity analyses
indicate that the relationship between external governance quality and microfinance
functional performance significantly depends on the microbanks' business concepts,
their lending methodologies and sources of funding.
