Schools link up via cyberspace - the Star, Malaysia

Some of the best schools in Malaysia will be linked up to certain schools in the United Kingdom to enable the sharing of experience, particularly in information and communications technology (ICT). As a start, SMK Bandar Baru Bangi which is one of 88 smart schools in the country, will be linked with a 100-year old grammar school in Lancaster, United Kingdom. Education Minister Datuk Seri Hishammuddin Tun Hussein said he had instructed his officers to do the necessary. “We will start with smart schools first but other schools which feel they should be included can see us too. We will assess them and if they prove worthy, we can link them up to a school overseas too,” he said when jointly launching the Lestari School-Environment Award with Natural Resources and Environment Minister Datuk Seri Adenan Satem at SMK Bandar Baru Bangi last month.
