Colleagues,
This proposal for EdTec is very welcome and indeed timely, at least
in spirit. We should develop
delibarate initiavies that will enhance the evolution of ICT in Uganda's
defferent sectors. The most
fundermental one is education. This is where innovation and creatively
starts.
It is some of these competitions and mainstreaming of ICTs in education
that will make the first major
mailstone.
Could someone update me about the progress of ICT curriculum that we
contributed to in
developing at NCDC?
Regards, Meddie

Dear Mr. Mayanja,
Thanks so much for the EdTech Project proposal. To us it is a welcome idea.
I am not quite sure but I believe you are subscribed to the WorLD Uganda
list serve; this means you should be update with some of our
efforts/activities here. Your missions quite much correspond to what
we are
trying to come up with in our Computer Society that is under
formation
having been born recently (1.4.2000). I strongly encourage your proposals
and efforts.
As for the project, I will let you know in a couple of weeks what we
come
up with. We however have one unique running project. An Educational
Play
focusing ICT. This is our own composition picking on various
topics/situations.
In line with your point 3 and 4 (as appearing below in the attachment),
our
Computer Society has composed a play (45 min) rooted in ICT awareness
and
technological demos. It is our interest to carry this play 'The Visual
Literacy' to educational forums, ICT related workshops, seminars,
conferences etc in order to promote the illustration and utilisation
of
technology in Ugandan computer literacy circles. We are ready to carry
this
play to a school, stage manage it under a tree (if need be) or exisiting
hall with a view to passing on its technology content to our
audience.
To us, this play is a running project. We expect to put captions of
it
accompanied by literature in our web page to be acquired soon. Definately
we need some funding support to have this venture through.
How about introducing inter-school/institution drama competition with
ICT
themes between schools/institutions at a later stage? Can your organisation
be of assistance in this direction?
Hoping to read/hear from you.
Bye.

Greetings WorLD Schools,
As you think about the EdTec Champion Project being initiated by Mr.
Ayub Kalema Golooba,think
about the hours of internet access you will need on the webserver to
build up webpage content.
For schools still accessing internet via telephone dial-up, you need
not give up! You will be sharing
resources with your sister/brother schools who are accessing internet
via wireless links. Here I am
talking about Makerere College School, Kibuli Secondary School, Mengo
Senior School,
Namilyango College School and now Nkumba University. These are blessed
with a 24/7 internet
access. We shall be informing you of the arrangements.
In the meantime, for the schools who can really afford to go wireless
faster that SchoolNet pace,
please be encouraged to do so. It is absolutely acceptable!!! There
will be a refund for half the ISP
equipment cost. Go wireless if you can.....The schools I have mentioned
have moved fast on their
own and are enjoying a 24/7 internet access.
Allen.
