Enter
the subjects in the 2002 Exhibition from the EdClicks.com Homepage
The Exhibition's
palace and pavilion (butterfly) icons each connect to collections of
webpages.
The webpages are selected as excellent examples of the vast amount of
knowledge that is now located on the Internet.
(The sections are not comprehensive, because that would require thousands
of links. They do feature carefully selected quality locations for learning.
New links are added continuously.)
The combination
of the 2002 World's Fair
and the Nigeria Jumpstart Pavilion
is offered as a place where students will find plenty to keep them busy
learning for
many, many hours over many weeks.
Pavilion
= Butterfly
The
word pavilion comes from the Latin and French words for butterfly,
catching the idea of "spreading out like a butterfly's wings."
[Webster's1966 unabridged dictionary]
A jumpstart project enters the Internet virtually and spreads its wings
over perninent knowledge to those learners for whom it is maintained.
