Help For Primary School Students in Malaysia

[chenchow]

I have contacted En. Ali Dina, a retired lecturer from UiTM, Shah Alam, who has founded www.etuisyen.com . He has founded this site, to help primary school students to have greater access to materials that would help them learning. It is a completely free service for the students. This would allow anyone to have equal access, as long as they have net access. It is still at the building stage right now.

He has asked me to enquire fellow ReComers to share links, resources, write articles/programs/softwares, contribute in forum to help those students back in Malaysia.

Anyone has any suggestion on how we could help En. Ali Dina with that site? It would be completely voluntary, since that site has no advertisement and he does not collect any fee. He just would like to help the students, since he has retired after spending many years in education sector.

Anyone has any thoughts on this? En. Ali Dina, has written to me that the main reason he did this website is to help the younger generation. He is earning a pension after he has retired, and he felt that his contribution to fellow Malaysians would be something necessary and expected of him. I see it as a very noble job being done by him.

Hence, I would hope that ReComers could help in finding links to more resources that would be suitable to help the primary school students.

We talk about hoping that Malaysia could be a better place, especially building a good interest in science and technology among the younger generation, hence, I see no reason why we shouldn't support the effort by a fellow Malaysian.

En. Ali told me that he has visited ReCom and he is impressed about it. He hoped that we could keep up the good job and asked up to help him finding more resources in www.etuisyen.com , which is a purely community service, where there is no advertisement and no fee.

Thanks for your suggestion, but I think currently that site has a forum, which allows to ask questions.

As a start, I have found these links, which I have emailed to En. Ali Dina just now.

Hopefully more ReComers could help find more links, or better still, help develop more content!
