Javelin provides access to Internet educational resources/scanned textbooks to secondary schools in Ghana. On-line resources are mirrored onto local servers in the school and updated by slower radios.
Javelin addresses the problem of lack of access to on-line educational resources for students in Africa. Project would offer first time access to 36,000 students in 30 secondary schools in Ghana for free. Access to educational Internet websites, e-mail and scanned textbooks previously unavailable enhances learning and access to information for both students and teachers.
