Innovation through Technology Teacher Pan has experience

teaching students basic computer skills and is passionate about introducing technology to children.

CTEF agreed to sponsor Teacher Pan to pilot a multi-media lab project for local schools.

The lab will teach applicable computer skills to teachers and contribute equipment to their schools.

Trained teachers will bring the learning and the equipment back to their own schools.
