How interesting.  How wonderful that you are a curriculum writer for the program.  What a service for those who are interested.

Re: benzinha, the same in India

How computers and technology are used can be either the most wonderful thing or our worst fears realized, ie. face recognition cameras on streets and eavesdropping.

A wonderful place and program

 India follows up on the British educational system splendidly with your own sophisticated application of meteorology and other sciences to help the fishing culture. Excellent! BCA, Bill*s Cae

I like the idea. It's very "global village" and useful.

In Brasil they afforded free computer telephony to other small villages

for better family communication. Cell phones are useless in remote areas and regular phones are expensive, so, there is little to no communication except through the mail.

 

Now, people take days and turns to call family members, scheduled via email accounts, to gather and speak and with computer speakers, everyone can talk and with web cams, babies can be held up and new fiancees' shown off to far away family.
