radio launch

18 01 2008

You see, wire telegraph is a kind of a very, very long cat. You pull his tail in New York and his head is meowing in Los Angeles. Do you understand this? And radio operates exactly the same way: you send signals here, they receive them there. The only difference is that there is no cat.
- Albert Einstein

radio.cms.edu.do was launched last night and was a ginormous success. Facilitator Osiris Villacampa and Information Technology Director Harold Oritz worked tirelessly to ensure the 6pm live broadcast would go off without a hitch…it did! There were more then 30 listeners to the innagural broadcast and we have no doubt that the number will continue to increase. If you missed it, that’s my fault due to poor advertising - be sure to “tune” in next Wednesday when the radio club goes live to air from the third annual Teaching with Technology Showcase.

The excavation process is due to end next week, and the teachers whose classrooms are the closest to the work are extremely thankful!
