I got a surprised call from my brother Panchet from the Philippines. He said he read about my earlier post about online Course Management Systems. He had earlier checked the site and opined that this could be an interesting project for Abra High School. Panchet is currently the principal of the school.
Apparently, the school is somehow already connected to the Internet and most of the teachers and students are allowed to use their system.
The idea of the project is for me to establish a central host in the U.S. and install the software. The School will then be connected to this server via the internet. The system will feature an online learning tool for students such as courses, schedules, resources and even a facebook-style collaboration.
This project will certainly teach student, teachers and even parents about utilizing technology to improve collaboration, communication and the quality of education.
And by the way, I would like to point out that this project will be of no cost for the school.
Watch out for more detail about this project in the coming days.
