Top-ranking information and communication
technology experts who participated in the full-day November 9,
2007, roundtable on the Department of Education’s Cyber-Ed Project
(CEP) say the department is not ready to handle the $465.5-million
project.
The proposed Cyber-Ed project of the Department
of Education has indeed evoked much interest but at the same time
raised concerns not only among stakeholders and beneficiaries in the
basic education sector but the general public as well.
I will not comment on the technical aspects of
the technology being proposed, or on the financial aspects, or on
the procedural aspects of the financing of the project as these are
not within my areas of competence.
