INTRODUCTIONINTRODUCTION
![Page 4: Computer Class for Primary School](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051419/56815d90550346895dcba50d/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Sky 2 Net LTD initiates a proposal under the name “OPEN WORLD” that will bring schools in Africa to be exposed to the World Wide Web as a source of learning material and knowledge.
The proposal is based on the model classroom that has been chosen by the Government of Botswana to create this year 10 computer classes and the Government of Nigeria to create 20 classes in 4 different States.
The total project in Botswana will include 700 classes, that will start next year.
![Page 5: Computer Class for Primary School](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051419/56815d90550346895dcba50d/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Sky 2 Net is well established companies with wide presence in Africa for the last 8 years with customer base of few hundred enterprises, government agencies, mobile operators, Ngo’s, universities etc.
The Company has a long experience in the education field, distance learning and implementation for education.
![Page 6: Computer Class for Primary School](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051419/56815d90550346895dcba50d/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
We believe that education and exposure to the world (through the Internet) can bring progress and development to countries that were deprived for years from what the Western world is participating for years, by that to close the gap between the those entities.
We believe that the time is ripe to introduce such systems to the education infrastructure in Africa.
![Page 7: Computer Class for Primary School](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051419/56815d90550346895dcba50d/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
CONCEPTCONCEPT
![Page 8: Computer Class for Primary School](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051419/56815d90550346895dcba50d/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
The concept is based of implementing a dedicated classroom in each primary school in Africa according to time table that will be decided by the education authorities.
The primary school is the best place to start computer & Internet literacy.
In case the decision makers will decide to start in middle schools or high schools, it is fine with us.
![Page 9: Computer Class for Primary School](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051419/56815d90550346895dcba50d/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
We suggest to divide the project into phases in each country:
First Phase - implementing the system in a pilot of 10 classes.
Second Phase - analyzing, after a year, from the lessons that were learnt about the methodology and the way student had absorbed the system, that phase can overlap the last three months of the first one.
Third Phase - implementing the systems to more schools all over each country with adaptation to the pilot lessons and according to budget constrain.

LanSchool v7.0 is a software program designed to help teachers improve the learning environment in computer-based classroom.
![Page 14: Computer Class for Primary School](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051419/56815d90550346895dcba50d/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
With LanSchool installed on each computer in a classroom, a teacher has the ability to perform the following functions: Reduce Student Distractions.
Demonstrate Skills.
Keep Students on Task.
Encourage Classroom Participation and Collaboration.
Help Individual Students.

Each class will be connected by V-sat (IRG S2) on Ku band that will enable to connect to the Internet backbone.
The IP will be a platform for distance learning.
The bandwidth for each class will be with contention rate of 1:8 that will reduce the cost of the recurrent fee.
![Page 17: Computer Class for Primary School](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051419/56815d90550346895dcba50d/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
The project can be based on communication technologies other than V-Sat, such as optic fiber or wireless.

LANSCHOOL v7.0 SOFTWARE PROGRAM
LanSchool works by enabling a teacher to control all student computers within a computer-based classroom.
It uses teacher “channels” to ensure that all the computers in that classroom see the same computer screen; much like a TV channel enables different TVs to see the same program.
LanSchool has 16,000 teacher channels from which to choose, which means that you can have as many as 16,000 different classrooms using LanSchool at any given time.
![Page 39: Computer Class for Primary School](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051419/56815d90550346895dcba50d/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
The most logical way to set up LanSchool is for each
classroom or room to have its own teacher channel,
as well as just one teacher computer.
This setup enables all of the computers in the same
classroom to interact with each other and one
teacher to control the entire room.
![Page 40: Computer Class for Primary School](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051419/56815d90550346895dcba50d/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
In contrast to Negroponte's OLPC project where
educational content should be provided by the
school themselves, NovaCentro and LanSchool v7.0
software program provide a complete learning
environment.
