Subject: [UgaBYTES] Interesting news for telecentres, e-education practioners and ICT4D organisations

www.paperlesshomework.com is globalising their initiative of global e learning by creating modules that are easily downloaded to any remote and urban area. They create modules and allow schools, telecenters etc to create their own with their own tools at no fee. These can be accessed by anyone on earth with slow dialups without the need for broadband  (which would be too expensive and would not allow the poor to have access anyway).

Theye can help anyone wishing to do that for their own country/ community or for the world. This initiative enables telecenters to access new content (ICT for Development) from all over the world.

Their system supports unicode and hence any language. They can also help any telecenter with their own contents to convert to these modules (for free for a limited numbers of courses). Students in rural areas can also benefit because AGE is one solution that closes the digital divides WITHOUT BROADBAND.

They also offer any Ministry of Education free monitoring of any child , or group of children in any area around the globe.
