LENOVO (continued)
The research will help outline clear actions and best practices for national, provincial and local governments to improve their use of technology in education. Lenovo is developing the Global Education Research Centers in partnership with Microsoft and Intel. Three of the fi ve core research sites (detailed below) are located in the United States and the program includes several affi liate educational institutions throughout the country.
Student Global Leadership Institute at Punahou School (Honolulu, HI) Going live in July 2010, the Student Global Leadership Institute (SGLI) will bring together top students from schools in the U.S. and China to foster a multinational, multilingual online learning framework driven by technology. The Institute will promote leadership development in academics and in public service for secondary school students and teachers and encourage international collaboration. Lenovo’s founding contribution to SGLI has been partially matched with a grant from the E.E. Ford Foundation.
Tiger Woods Learning Foundation (Anaheim, CA and Washington, DC) Launched in February 2006, the Tiger Woods Learning Center is a one-of-a-kind life experience custom built for underserved youth. The Center is technology-rich, innovative and motivates students who are imaginative, engaged and planning their paths to college and a career. This after school campus, designed to inspire career exploration, serves members in grades fi ve through twelve. Classes include forensic science, robotics, engineering, aerospace, video production and marine biology.
