Sabbatical Resources Stephen Cysewski

I have been going through my printed notes and clippings. I am preparing for my first meeting at STOU on Monday. I am supposed to meet Ann at the flagpole at 10 AM. I am excited about beginning. In addition to my responsibilities and opportunities with STOU I have some personal academic goals. This is a list of projects and locations that I have read about in the last year and half that I want to visit. This is an edited version of the web page that I have created previously. There are links documenting these locations on my Blog and on my Clipping web site.

1. I want to visit the Cyber Bus at Wangtongpittayakom School in Phitsanulok

2. I want to visit Richard Barrow of Patnam.com and the Siriwittayapaknam School

3. I want to visit the Virtual Hill Tribe Museum project in the Chang Rai area.

4. I want to visit the Srisangwan School in Bangkok and the Young Digital's Christian Association Technological for Life Center" in Chiang Mai. Both projects were funded by Samsung.

5. If the Bangkok Metropolitan Administration has opened vocational centers for the poor I want to visit one.

6. If the Education Ministry has developed mobile PC facilities for rural sites, I want to visit one.

7. I want to visit Father Joe Meier's project in Klong Toey. I am interested because of the article that I read about Tew Bunnag and his book of short stories, Fragile Days.

8. I want to visit the ICT National Learning Center at Central World Plaza at Ratchadamri Road and/or at ICT Cities in Chiang Mai.

9. I would like to visit with Srinuan Wongtrakoon at the Sam Kha Village of Mae Tha in Lampang.

10. I would like to visit the Non-formal Educational Center in Lampang

11. I would like to visit the WiMax demonstration project at Samkha village. The village is located near Lampang city.

12. I would like to visit Ko Kret and meet with the abbot again. I would like to do this because the last visit was so enjoyable and in honor of Sutep. If I get invited again to do the morning rounds I will accept.

These are my goals for the Sabbatical in addition to activities and projects with STOU. I expect that I will also have many unexpected and valuable experiences in addition to this list.
