The final trip was school  of D. Turabekova (Boz-Bulun v.). There are 214 students enrolled.

In this school the device “Ilim Box” was earlier established, however, it was the outdated version which as it became clear, unfortunately, wasn’t used on purpose, and gathered dust in one of offices as the head teacher lost the password from the old device.

The updated version without a password system pleased the school administration.

During the presentation, we showed the improved nuances of the device and instructed on the use of high school children.

The penultimate visit was to the school Esimbekova (Tegizchil v.).

It is a compact school with 238 children.  It is located on the outskirts of the village Tegizchil, however, despite this, at school we met a volunteer from the United States who came on a Peace Corps knowledge-sharing project.

He teaches children English for the second academic year and speaks Kyrgyz perfectly.

Teachers and children admitted, in school except an office of administration there is no Internet access anywhere.

Of course such a gift to the school was very useful and also solved the problem of acute shortage of books.

The guys offered to install the device in the office of the school government, as it is usually open around the clock.

In the fifth school it was possible to meet not only teachers, but also pupils whom in school will count 268.

The presentation ilimBox called about ten active high school students and several teachers.

In this school, we noticed posters prohibiting the use of a mobile device at school, as in the classroom, children often use it for entertainment purposes.

We, in turn, have shown that with the advent of “IlimBox” smartphone can be used exclusively for educational purposes, and all this can be fun through video lessons.
