The Possibilities

Children spend their free time watching movies and television clips full of visual effects and excitement, or playing colorful and noisy little video games. Meanwhile, our schools are falling apart, looking more like prisons than learning and educative centers. Children are packed in hot and humid rooms invaded by fungus and the old fashion decrepit methods of our far gone ancestors. Children are bored. Teachers are bored and burnt out.

Learning Now v1 is the tool that will help teachers and students make the switch between an archaic and decrepit educational system into a modern, colorful and realistic learning environment!

Teachers can use the powerful features of Learning Now v1 to create a full azimuth of new courses and interactive training books for all ages and all subjects, and replace the dusty manuals of our great grand parents with interactive digital books and courses.

Teachers and Students can all work together and create all sort of complementary material that can be distributed among the families and community centers via CD or the Internet. Schools could build their own Learning Now Local Centers with local Story Books and Cultural Electronic Centers created by Teachers and Students together.

Any material created with Learning Now v1 must be distributed and spread all over for free. It is your own duty and responsibility to share with every one your own dreams and learning tools.

You could establish links with other countries and communities and exchange all sorts of Learning Now training books and courses. Each country and community might bring their own designs and customization. We could end up with a lot of Help Figures representing all sorts of places and cultures.

Learning Now v1 is built to grow and keep growing and growing. All together we can create a Free Education world and open it to all children and adults in need for serious and real efficient help. It’s up to you.

Building Community Story Books

After a few days working with Learning Now v1, you will start realizing all the possibilities that the software brings. Since the application is built using Adobe Flash, it supports all Internet protocol and procedures.

Learning Now v1 can create Story Books and present them by subjects, narrator or country. These story books could be written by teams of community members – students or nor – to reflect the local traditions, geography, economy, culture and music. You could create books of local healing plants and herbs, fruits and vegetable, including old-traditional advices on how to use the medicinal herbs.

All books could be packed on CDs or DVDs and made available to all members of the community and beyond via the Internet by creating a Web Community Center and host the program.

Using technology to honor and preserve our culture

Learning Now v1 loves music and digit art. You could create musical books to illustrate various or all aspects of your local or national music. You could include as many music rooms as you wish, with interviews, articles from the press, photos, videos… You could easily add Books to cover your local art craft, painters and sculptors, poets and writers. And plug all of it to the Internet.
