VLEs for Primaries – K12
I would like to bring to your attention a truly wonderful education concept – but like all seeds, needs water and care.
Moodle are working with OLPC. They are seeking primary schools to develop independent VLEs installs for schools in very very remote areas. However, there is some way to go.
The opportunity to test such a Moodle install created to be self-sufficient would / could revolutionize a primary school learning culture – esp those schools without the technical support to maintain a VLE or server.
MartÃn Langhoff is leading the project – can you use your influence to support such an agenda.
