This
educational philosophy distinguishes schoolarabia.net as a participant in
a world-wide movement advocating experiential, cross cultural learning.
Our affiliation with this philosophy advocates for robust virtual learning
environments which move well beyond the constraints of traditional
textbook learning.
Today, Arab
governments are focusing on information technology with the goal of
creating an educated society capable of contributing and competing on a
global scale. The Arab ministries of Education plan to computerize all
schools and to introduce the Internet to all learners.
Our work at
schoolarabia.net complements these efforts.
The Arab
world shares a common language, understanding, and education. Our goal is
to play a leading role in contributing towards the productive
participation of Arab learners within the international global village.
The focus of our participation in the virtual world is on providing pan-
Arab curriculum which celebrates, preserves, and publicizes our unique
cultural heritage and legacy. schoolarabia.net project is therfore, a very important steppingstone for
the Arab world to join in the virtual world arena.
UNESCO has stated
that education is the fundamental pillar of human rights, sustainable
development, and peace, and shall, therefore, be the first priority of the
world in the 21st century. schoolarabia.net aims to inform public understanding about the value and
role of education. An essential step in this effort is the creation of a
large database of outstanding and relevant educational and of science
literacy resources. Also
inherent in our educational mission is the need to raise awareness of
human rights and environmental issues.
The
schoolarabia.net site will host such unique services as:
An ask-a- teacher
hotline
Bi- monthly homework
sheets for each subject
Career and college
consultation sections
Educational clubs
Study- stations.
You can participate in this endeavor by
sponsoring us in
our efforts to establish a wider curriculum. With your support,
we will be in a much stronger position to enhance the educational process,
and to provide students with the necessary science, liberal arts and
technology skills to assure them entrance into the global marketplace as
productive Arabic participants.
