Preparing for India!

As I have mentioned in my previous posts, it has been a busy few months!!

Our November 11 meeting at the New Hope Academy Charter School in York, PA, could not have gone any better! It was at this meeting that we gave our first demo of the eKWIP program and rolled out our plan to connect schools in the United States to schools in India.

We provided dinner for our guests and it was the first time eating Indian food for some of the audience. It was a cultural experience in itself.

Now it is time to plan our trip to India. We will actually be going to several different cities and schools to show them the eKWIP platform and connect them to the States.

Not only is eKWIP the platform that will connect the world, but all the teachers involved will have access to various lesson plans and teachable moments as well as have the ability to upload their own lessons and teachable moments.

Please check out the site at www.ekwip.net to learn more about the program.

eKWIP and more!

It has been a busy few months preparing for the launch of our web portal that is going to connect classrooms to India to classrooms in the US. There have been some minor setbacks, but we truly feel that we have developed the best possible portal for the connection.

On November 11, we will roll out the portal to our first audience in York, PA. We will give them a demo of eKWIP (Educating Kids with International Possibilities). We have explained the idea and shown mockups, but now it is time to go live and display the various functionality. Very exciting!!

We are also planning a trip to India in December to meet and connect with the schools there.
Will keep you posted.
