<p class=MsoNormal>Dear All,<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>This is a nice opportunity, I have pasted the text below for
your convenience. You can visit the link for more details. <a

<p class=MsoNormal>In the Solomons we have a UNESCO/MEHRD collaboration where
teachers have been collaborating with ICT to develop lesson plans related to a
local language conservation wiki (online version of the “Reef and
Rainforest” Marovo book). The idea is to use another Open educational
resource (the WikiEducator) with a template that allows teachers to enter their
lesson plan ideas using a “what you see is what you get” template
consistent with the MEHRD’s policies. Then a wider range of stakeholders
can contribute and the MEHRD can quality assure – all online. More info :
