Too many connected schools
projects have failed…
Too many learning devices not
making the impact intended…
Education hasn't been able to keep up

But Internet is not new to this generation
We decided that a platform
based approach is needed
So what makes a platform?
A nationwide 4G network is
a start
But content is king
We feel that a cloud based
learning platform is key
As humans, we learn
through interaction
Internet is about interaction and
collaboration
Thus, 4G Internet + Cloud
based learning platform makes
perfect sense to us
School administrators can organise their
school calendars and disseminate school
notices via the Internet
Teachers can assign lessons, tests, and marks virtually
Students can submit homework and view results through the
VLE
Parents can view school news and
important documents

learning devices is key to
