CONNECT TO THE INTERNET

Dateline:
Kessararam Primary School, Siem Reap Town, Mon, July 18, 2011
Deanna Shimko

Kessararam Primary School, located in one of the villages that make up the Siem Reap Town metro area, is now connected to the internet. That's good! No one at Kessararam Primary School knows how to use the internet or has an email address! Let's change that! The teachers want to know!

Sam P holds a long class Monday afternoon explaining about the internet, web sites, conducting searches, email addresses, creating and sending a message, opening inbox and managing messages. Mony Hun assists Sam with interpretation into Khmer language.

Each teacher gets her/his own email address and practices locating her/his inbox and creating and sending a message.

Author's note: This is Sam's third year teaching computer skills to the teachers at Kessararam Primary School and providing computer equipment and supplies. In 2008, our Cambodia mission provided an Afridev hand pump and well to this school of 1507 students.
