The UNESCO Office in Bangkok has created two CD-ROMs containing e-learning tools, which are both useful for instructed and self-learning. Collected by a team from the ICT in Education Programme, the e-learning tools can be installed directly from the CD-ROM on any computer using the Windows operating system.
Collection of E-Learning Tools - Recommended for learners age 3-13 is targeting kindergarten children, elementary students, junior high schools students, educators and parents. The e-learning tools on the CD-ROM are divided into the following categories:
Educational Suites,
Language Learning,
Mathematics,
Arts and Graphics,
Computer Literacy, and
Geography and Astronomy.
All these tools have been specifically designed for young children and may help facilitate great learning achievements even in early years.
The second CD-ROM, Collection of E-Learning Tools - Recommended for advanced learners, targets high school students, university students, educators and teacher trainers. The tools are divided into:
Geography and Astronomy,
Language Learning,
Mathematics,
Science,
Programming and Memorizing.
They can potentially assist in teaching and learning at high school and university education. For instance, tools such as the Virtual Chemistry Lab or PHET enable to simulate complex science phenomena in a safe and interactive way through research based animations.
Each application has been thoroughly tested and verified to ensure its effectiveness and safety. The tools have also been checked to make sure that they do not include any viruses, adware, malware or spyware.
The two CD-ROMs are one of the outcomes of the ICT in Education Teacher Training Project in the Asia Pacific Region, sponsored by UNESCO G-77 and China South-South Cooperation Fund in Education.
