Information technology will be taught throughout the curriculum and pupils are being encouraged to send and receive homework via email.
The board hopes to expand the use of the Internet in the classroom by creating a central site, known as a portal, through which students could receive homework assignments from teachers, who could swap lesson plans and communicate with parents and school administrators.
Halt!Ebola, was an app enabling rural populations to receive healthcare information through automated calls and voice messages recorded in different tribal languages, and sterio.me, which allows teachers to send and receive homework and educational supplements over free sms, both were early participants in Ampion's program.
At each session the participants will receive homework assignments that take about 30 minutes 5 days per week.
At the end of the sessions, the participants received homework assignments that took about 30 min, 5 days/week.
The participants received homework assignments between the sessions, including reading informative leaflets, filling in checklists to become aware of their beliefs about falls, and executing personal action plans.
The families receive homework between sessions related to the newly addressed topics; for instance, parents are asked to register moments with experienced dialogue and turn-taking in their interactions with their infants.
For example, participants are asked to reiterate main pacing concepts back to the therapist (e.g., importance of planning, resting before symptoms get worse, etc).. Participants also receive homework assignments that reinforce the lessons presented during the session and are asked to complete a daily activity logbook.
The system not only can enable teachers to assign homework, correct homework, score homework and look up students' score record, but also can make it possible for students to submit their homework, receive the homework that the teacher has be corrected and commented, view oneself score on Internet network etc.
