Three 4th grade classes elementary classes from two schools (Lubang Integrated School and Maligaya Elementary School) in Lubang, Mindoro will participate in these pilots. The training session is schedule 3 months in advance of the pilot to get the teachers comfortable with the technology and take advantage of the summer vacation to create their own content and upload into the school server. 4 Teachers and a 4 member support team will participate in this training. The outcome of this training and two pilots including all artifacts will be the template for future OLPC deployments in the country.

The new Educational Law to be approved in the next 2 or 3 months, states that all schools will have to teach 3 Languages (Spanish, an originary language (Guarani in our case) and another foreign language - (English is the most commonly used).To help students from the Public Schools (approximately 300 000),we are going to develop a curriculum for them to learn English with the help of XOs and hopefully to use this program to teach other languages (to start with Guarani for example). We hope this project will assist language learners worldwide. |
