Schoolhouse Blog

This is just excellent, and I really hope to see it in Kuwait's classrooms very soon.

However, there might be some people higher up who would not be too keen on teaching kids how to express their opinions.

  1. Been trying to do that using my webpage but it's more complicated than I thought. I know I have that feature with my webserver providers but I'm lost in its maze still.
    A bunch of students at KU do something similar through yahoo groups which I thought was quite a step in the beginning, but it's not too well-endorced by the teacher of that class, which might explain the small number of contributors.

    Maybe I'll have time soon to try to figure out how to work it.

  3. Related topic, but on ipods

    Still, do all students have internet access from home? And even if their families can afford it, will they allow them to use it despite the fatwas dictating that the internet is 7aram?

    I think it takes more than 'people higher up' to implement this educational medium.

  4. i strongly agree with thier point of view, actually this is the only reason keeps me on the blog line after all those years, just to improve writting and english skills and i got it from my dearest teacher in the US when we had to teach high school students the basics of biology.

    You wish having it in kuwait, while i wish we have this kind of educated teachers in our schools.

    Thank you Mr. Zeez.

  7. Is it at all possible that someday we might see the fatwa'ad become the fatwaees?

    Mighty interesting, to see if such a provisio actually exists allowing this to happen.
