It’s true and it’s actually happening while you’re reading these lines; the era of pen and paper, the days when young students had to bear the weight of those hefty backpacks and the overwhelming stress of that late night written homework marathon are all soon finally coming to an end; and “e-Serve” are the ones who are taking the system’s integration responsibility in their trustworthy hands and non-sleeping minds.
Subsequent to the official statement of the minister of education -Dr. Tarek Shawky- to carry on with the plan where e-learning techniques replaces the ordinary “Pen & Paper” ones, alongside with handing students and teachers more than 750K electronic educational tablets starting the first of October, 2018; the duty of integrating a seamless system that connects the student to the world wide web, yet also his curriculum, revisions, homework, tests, teacher’s evaluations and finally scores, is an immense effort that “e-Serve” takes really vigorously.
Developers at “e-Serve” had to embed the information inside the studying books into the system in coding language; symbol by symbol, letter by letter and bracket by bracket; staying up all night to make sure our youngsters wouldn’t miss a letter through their ongoing learning process while they are witnessing a revolutionary leap towards the future of education via an avant-grade efficient learning platform. But it only begins here; making sure the system efficient is the hardest part; and by efficient it means connected, safe, secure, simple and learner-friendly; they wouldn’t risk the future of an upcoming generation to be on a ledge. So, they are always relentlessly working out solutions to provide connectivity in disconnected regions of the country, like some areas in upper Egypt; applying security measures to make sure our kids are safe from explicit web content, cyber harassment or any other security breaches; inventing an interface which most of the users, either students or their teachers would be familiar with for a smoother teacher-student relationship; and finally, allowing the student to outreach to his lessons easily, so he would gain a flawless form of knowledge he in intended to get and deserves.
And as stated, this leap is still an experimental one; “e-Serve” yet didn’t add their biggest gem to that innovative learning crown, we’ll just have to wait until the technique is announced official.
