While most US online schools focus on their local clients, 1WS focuses on both US students and international students; believing that “basic education is a human right,” supporting the Education goals of the United Nations, “Education for All.”
The Solution to a worldwide problem
The solution to a large part of the problem of lack of basic education around the world and lack of infrastructure is to offer online learning in a format that is cost-effective, adaptive to local technology, and includes quality content, assessment, up-to-date textbooks and technology, and incorporates accredited, highly qualified teaching methods. 1WS offers a solution in that it combines all of these elements in an efficient online infrastructure. Course content can be delivered in any of 16 languages, adapted to local culture and need, and even utilize and train local teachers through its online Teacher Education program.
The United States, itself, has more than 500,000 schools where online learning and computer access is limited because of budget constraints. UNESCO says there are more than 6 million children around the world who have ‘never’ stepped inside a classroom.
We are seeking funding for development and marketing of the Kennari, a solar powered tablet (Patent pending) which contains an entire educational program or career technical program which can be used in areas around the world where there is NO internet or electricity. We currently offer more than 540 courses online to students throughout the US but hope to extend our services internationally and to the oil and gas industry to users on the oil platforms around the world.
