3. Introduction to PEPY
• PEPY is an International Non Governmental
Governmental Organization (INGO) working in
Cambodia since 2006.
• PEPY stands for Promoting Education emPowering
Youths.
• PEPY’s worked evolved and the current vision is every
young Cambodian empowered to achieve their
dreams.
• Goal: to help KL graduates getting skilled employment.
4. Introduction to ICT project
ICT project in the PEPY Learning Center was created in
September 2013 to enable Kralanh graduates in
expanding the probability of getting skilled employment
after graduate from the university.
“Students don’t learn computer for computer’s skill… but
they used computer program to improve their learning,
sharing information and building their confident for their
skilled employment”
5. Why we do it?
• The Ministry of Education, Youth and Sport (MoEYS)
is introducing various initiatives to facilitate greater
integration of information and communication
technology (ICT) to improve the effectiveness of
education at all levels and to produce the
technologically literate, productive and critically
thinking workforce for the country.
• Increased access to basic education in university
study and vocational training with using ICT as one of
the major tools for learning, teaching, searching and
sharing information.
6. How we do it?
We actually cooperate this project with scholarship project.
1) Students selection:
– Students are selected automatically to this class after they passed PEPY
scholarship
– This year we also open up for the another 20 students from KL as well
2) Class Time
- The ICT class starts at 1:30 pm to 4:30 pm, Monday to Thursday
- Each class has 90 minutes
- The project runs from November to October each year but we allow
students to have some small break depends on situation. ( Khmer New Year
and Pchom Ben Day or sometimes that PEPY team is busy with retreat).
- Each student will be attend this special class only two years.
3) How we run the class:
- Install 20 computers & Networking
- Students center approach
- Active learning
7. How we do it? Cont-
4) Curriculum
- We use Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, Power Point for our students.
- Students learn how to use communication with internet.
5) Students’ policy
- We develop a clear policy for students. That policy mentioned about
coming to class, uniform,..
6) Teacher Policy
- We also develop teacher policy that stated clearly on how PEPY
teacher should act in the class with students.
7) Testing System
- Students need to take the test at the end of each team. If anyone
fail the test then they have to take the extra class in order to
improve their abilities before joining the next level.
8. How we measure our success
We will measure our success though:
1) Real observation, Can they use computer to produce
assignment, homework, can they make blog,
communicate to email, social medias?
2) Job interview, Can they get a skilled job after they
finished in the center?
3) Will they be able to work in the areas that they need
to use computer?
4) Their examination results.
5) Feedback from employers.
9. Challenges and solutions so far
• Student’s ability is so different from each other.
Students don’t have their own computer to use at
home.
– We offered students the extra class for the slow learner’s
students to attend from 5 – 7pm and also for the fast learner to
improve their research.
– We fixed a few of old PEPY’s computers for making homework
and assignment for their teacher at university.
• Developing ICT curriculum’s quite new for our team.
So it take us long time to do it.
– We checked ICT curriculum of MoEYS
– Researched from available
10. Lesson Learned
• Students feel very sleepy during the time from 1:30 –
3:00 pm. We should include more group work or group
discussion then presentation into the lessons
• We found that any students who are good at math can
catch up the excel lesson well, so we should know
how many percentage of students who are good at
math or not then we arrange then the lesson that fit to
them.
• It’s good to put the fast student’s learners with the low
student’s learners because they can share and help
each other.
