A Bright IT Future For Students
LEOT Trustee Peter this week visited the World Bank in
Vientiane to receive a gift of over fifty second user computers to be used in
schools in the Luang Prabang area.
LEOT will complete its third year of teaching English
at its school in Luang Prabang this month and is busy planning for its new
courses which will commence in early September.
LEOT has been developing its library to allow IT
training and has always found it difficult due to a lack of computers.
Thanks to this fantastic gift the school will spend
the summer months developing a network that will allow every student to have a
machine when the new course starts in the autumn. Every class will now have one
lesson a week learning how a computer works and developing their skills using
an interactive course from Cambridge University.
As part of the project LEOT will purchase monitors,
keyboards and mice for all the desktop computers and will then distribute the
machines to state schools in the district.
LEOT is a UK registered charity and is funded by
donations and gift aid from the UK Government
To complete the project LEOT is raising nearly $4000
to purchase the additional equipment required
