The Who-Am-I? Program
Enhanced Learning Experiences

  • Empowers students to take ownership of their own learning
  • Directs students to move from data to information to insights shared with global peers :
    When students have an audience and a purpose, they want to write and learn. The Who-Am-I? program gives meaning to tasks that can be boring if done outside a specific context.
  • "The act of writing now has a new significance, and is no longer an abstract exersize. They write, and their works are displayed on the web where hundreds of childrens review them and tell my students their impressions." - Samuel Escobar, Colegio Gertrude Hanks, Lima, Peru
  • Addresses learner outcomes in math, science, language arts, social studies, reading, writing, etc.
  • Provides for a variety of learning styles
  • Stimulates and encourages inquiry and discovery
  • Supports a thirst for life-long learning
  • Encourages an ongoing process of assessment of student work by students themselves
  • Targets the educational development of the total child with his/her language, culture and unique identity (self esteem) as a global citizen using Internet as a tool.
