TWENTY RURAL SCHOOLS ACCEDED TO THE INTERACTIVE SATELLITE CONNECTIVITY PARKS AND SCHOOL PROGRAMME
Thousands of children of the most remote regions of the country, whose schools are bordering to or within the National Parks, have been benefitted with the Programme “Parks and Interactive Schools”, that this year satellite connectivity will take to more than 20 rural establishments. “This it is the second year of the Programme, and our goal is to arrive at 21 National Parks and 23 rural Schools from all the country”, said to the chief of Institutional Relations, Communication and Image and Corporative Security of the Telefonica Foundation, Jose Luis Rodriguez Zarco. From his offices of the Huergo street, the Spanish manager does not disguise his enthusiasm when enumerating the different plans that the company has in execution, such as the Pro Kids, a project that is developed in all of Latin America and that already affects 85 thousand children, and who focus to the eradication of child labour. As far as the Programme Parks and Interactive Schools, the Foundation works in collaboration with the Administration of National Parks (APN), the Microsoft Company and the non Governmental Organization Learning under the Southern Cross. The intention of the Programme is to take the connectivity, with broadband, to all the Parks of the country and the nearest schools, whenever these have diverse needs. It is a programme of computer science equipment, connection to satellite Internet and oriented actual and virtual qualification to the valuation, preservation and diffusion of the natural and cultural patrimony of Argentina from the bases of the educational system. “Here everything is much interconnected. The children are now connecting themselves with the Park guards and these are being connected with the rest of the world, we are entering a dynamics that is very amazing”, assured Rodriguez Zarco. For the logistics of the programme, and after a stage of consensus between the Foundation and the APN, contacts are made with the local municipalities and other areas of provincial government to identify those schools with needs. “It is a humanitarian question. Within the humble conditions humility that they have, of the facilities, are children who have a future.
We can contribute with what we know to do, the technology to educate them, to orient”, emphasized the manager. The reception of the programme on the part of interested, that is to say, the students and the teacher is overwhelming. “The faces of the children when they receive the computers are indescribable. You are in a school which has certain deficiencies, you see that, and you enter a room where there are two computers, a printer, a parabolic dish and not what, and it seems like NASA, and there are special schools where the children are even more surprised”, he related. That astonishment is increased even more when those children who never had a computer himself, enter the world of the digital technology with an ease that surpasses their own educators. “For example in Ushuaia, in the Park of Tierra del Fuego, we realized, because we saw the children sit down in front of the computer, that the teachers are behind the children. There it is shown that in just a very a short time the creatures are as sponges, and in only a couple of weeks in which the creature sat down there, the computer already was a part of his life”, added. The Foundation is financed, essentially, with income coming from the fixed telephony and from Movistar, besides contributions that arrive from outside the company and Spain. Nevertheless, all aid well is received, as well as the incorporation of other actors and organizations who want to collaborate and to contribute in the work. “Whoever wants to work with us is welcome”, assured the manager. Finally, Rodriguez Zarco assured that the Foundation is not going to reduce its actions before the International financial crisis, because, according to him: “it would be a terrible mistake”.
“This is the society of the knowledge in its pure essence, then, to take that to the children is an obligation of all the society”, he concluded.
