Rural Education & Cloud Computing

After attending HP Catalyst Summit in Delhi, (India) to present the project, we have gathered some pics taken during this visit and they are uploaded to a gallery in our website.

Rural Schools & Cloud Computing project was one of the 3 projects funded worldwide in Cloud Computing and Education by HP Labs. Now, we will enter a global network of consortia that is developing more effective approaches to STEM education that addresses important new disciplines in an interdisciplinary way, emphasizes creative and global collaboration skills, and puts student empowerment at its core.(STEM+) education. The goal is to transform STEM learning and teaching, and to inspire students to use their technical and creative ingenuity to address urgent social challenges in their communities.

The experience was very enriching, many participants showed interest in our experience and we will soon collaborate with this global consortium of partners in new steps for our initiative.

Tras asistir á reunión global de HP Catalyst en Nova Delhi, (India) para presentar o noso proxecto, publicamos na nosa web unha galería de imaxes que tomamos eses días.

O proxecto Rural Schools & Cloud Computing foi un dos 3 proxectos aprobados a nivel mundial na liña de Cloud Computing and Education por HP Labs. Agora, HP nos invita a formar parte dun consorcio internacional de institucións que están traballando en proxectos para desenvolver formas máis efectivas de traballar a educación das ciencias abordada dende un punto de vista interdisciplinar, enfatizando as habilidades de creación e colaboración global, e poñendo ao alumno como eixo principal.

A experiencia na reunión en Delhi foi moi enriquecedora, e moitos participantes amosaron un vivo interés no noso proxecto e na súa posible aplicación, polo que pronto comezaremos a colaborar dentro desde consorcio global de socios para acadar novos pasos na nosa iniciativa nas escolas rurais.
