There is an online School of Medicine that is available for students across the world with Internet access, In particular, it was designed by a Surgeon in Canada who is an Afghani, who wanted to help meet the needs of students in regions blocked from learning. The cost is based on number of students enrolled.

Starlink provides an Internet connection from multiple satellites that reaches remote areas of the world.  Because there is no electrical power in many regions, such as Afghanistan,  alternate power sources are needed. Internet costs vary in regions of the world. The technology in all of this needs to be guided by those who understand it well, even in future changes that might make things easier to operate. There are groups actively paying for Satellite SIM cards for students in the dangerous parts of the world and helping them find the way in which to connect. But more supporters are needed, and leaders with the skills to guide in this delicate operation.

Starlink is used by Ukraine in its war against Russia. This Library does not support violence and war anywhere, but it is the reality of our times.

If you wish to help those who are struggling in poor regions of the world, in places such as Afghanistan and countries of Africa, consider funding an aspect of Education in regions beyond as a focus.

Choose a sending organization wisely,  so that your funds are distributed by people with integredy (keeping its promises), dependability, and international financial understanding. Non profit organizations may issue income tax receipts, but not everyone needs that. Gillespie Library wants to be involved, but is not yet prepared to offer these services.

Fortunately several physical schools are now being developed for people fleeing from these war torn regions of the world to safer environments,  specifically in  North America and Europe. Muslims have a school in Africa. These schools provide live-in accommodation, meals and recreation for students besides regular classes. Would you consider funding a student through his or her education?   World leaders have come out of such situations. Everyone of any faith, or none at all,  needs to have a solid education to better their future.

Education such as TESOL or Teaching English to Students of Other Languages is available to those who want to pursue international service. Right now I have friends who are serving overseas teaching hockey in Asia and being paid a good wage for doing so. There are many avenues open to people in this field of Education.

This website supports the studies of Cyberpatient School of Medicine. It also supports helping pay for internet access that meets the need,  and purchasing other supplies to enable students in closed counties of the world to study to improve their lives.  However, we do not support the use of any funds or supplies in open rebellion against government.  Just because a country wanted to close its borders to outside influences, God has taught us that Kingdoms rise and fall, but Almighty God loves people and wants us to help the poor in great need. Education is one avenue to do so.

I remember when China was a closed country, as I stared across the bridge to the mountains of Tibet. I attended a meeting in Nepal that introduced a way that was getting Bibles into China. We now know the diplomatic,  political solution used in a sport games that opened a crack in that country.  What might  tempt those men in Afghanistan to relent in its control of women so their education may continue?.

For those in the Western World, education is available at all levels from many sources.  This website supports home schooling and in particular material from Abeka from Florida because it is of high quality and was used in teaching my own children here in Canada.  There are many other good options for workbooks and textbooks for home schoolers, especially helping the disabled and other special educational needs.

Language Learning: The change from learning phonics to decode the English language to whole language, whereby students only memorized words, caused serious decline in student reading ability.  Fortunately there is a blend now that has improved this approach, but phonics remains the better choice. Other languages are available at a reasonable cost in many countries. There are live in schools in Central America for those wanting to study Spanish.

Testing for students in English has been available from Bob Jones University for many years, to help identify weaknesses in a student’s education, subject by subject. These tests are available to home schoolers, and I found them very helpful.

Each country has its own curriculum and guidelines for parents. The public system does not promote Christian values. This website supports the development of private Christian schools that encourages trust and love for the Holy Trinity, and promotes family values reflected in the Bible.

Tragically, many thousands of international students are now in Canada on a visa but claiming asylum. This is not the intended purpose of offering studies for those from abroad. International  students  must show means of support during their studies in the application process.  Thousands of students have enjoyed their college days in this country in the past and have gone home to live productive lives. The rapid change in the past five years has brought a different perspective and moral code.

Asylum seekers are individuals who flee their home countries due topersecution or fear of persecution and seek protection in another country.  Although one may feel compassion for those in real danger fleeing as a refugee,  it is evident that the door of Education may soon be closing for international students because of the deceit possibly during the application process and the lust for a Western lifestyle.  How many of these students have the support of their families, or are they in open rebellion against their family wishes? Family connections are far stronger in many countries than North America.

A terrorist was recently arrested in Canada who was posing as a student. 

This website remembers the teachings of the Bible: Thou shalt not lie.   Exodus The 10 Commandments.  Honour you father and your mother….

Does the latest developments mean we should stop caring about Education? No.  Everyone needs to learn the basics in order to care for themselves and their families. To learn how to handle money, to shop, to invest, and to save. Extended education promotes intelligent thinking and sifts the abilities of some for higher level jobs, especially Foreign Affairs. It is also a great way to stimulate interest for many seniors and prolongs dementia.
