Mobiles in Kandahar

Language learning using mobile phones. We are going to develop a support programme using mobile technologies and a phone to web application. The students in Kandahar will improve their English language skills while the UK students will develop their language structure and literacy skills in a cross-phase and curricular context. This is a student driven, peer to peer initiative.

    Many Afghan schools have thousands of students and operate a three shift system of attendance. Using appropriate mobile learning technology can provide an effective supplement to their school input. This also engages with the concept of 24/7 learning and is transferable to many areas of educational needs. Mobile learning technology also addresses learning at home issues and can be used to support learning in the community.

    I’ve just set up a group on Facebook called Sackville mobile phone + Kites project. We are really looking for more members to join it.
