If you want to see the future of education, you’re in the right spot.
In 2005 the Cayman Islands made an unprecedented pledge to bring about much needed transformation of their education system. Leveraging the advantages of a small population and thriving economy the changes have been far-reaching on a scale that other countries find difficult to rival. Driven by a committed government and some of the most brilliant minds on the international scene, the Cayman Islands are not only embracing but increasingly leading cutting edge developments in technology, facilities, human capital development and teaching and learning styles. The world is watching this one, so leave your comments, link to the site and get in touch if you want to know more.

Now that is very SMART!!!


Approximately 30 teachers from public and private schools across the Cayman Islands were involved in training for the SMART Interactive Whiteboards placed in several governement classrooms and purchased by several other private schools on the island. The training was facilitated by Laura Johnston of Cayman Business Machines, and Rudolph Nemai from SMART Technologies in Canada delivered the instruction to the participants.


In the photo above, Rudolph and the teachers take a moment while at the board to pose for a picture. These teachers will return to their respective schools and share the information from the workshop with their colleagues to ensure that everyone is up to speed with this innovative technology. Now that seems very smart! (MR)
