ORT Virtual Campus Offers Students Remote Access to their Works

ORT students can use from their homes a new service provided by the Virtual Campus, which is in beta version: the file administrator.

When entering the Campus, students will have access to their personal folders and files stored at the schools’ servers. Students will have to log in at the internal network (usually with their ID number) and their password. Once they have finished this step, they will be able to get to their files through the highlighted icon of the image.

The file administrator contains all the functions that are usually provided by virtual storage servers, such as file uploading and downloading, folder creation, documents previewing, etc. By using this service, students will be able to continue their homework at home or at school without having the need to forward it by e-mail or copy it on a pendrive or a CD. In some weeks, the file administrator will also be available for the students of the Institutes and for all the teachers.

The Virtual Campus aims at improving the services provided to our students, and keeps on working on one of its fundamental ideas which is to “constantly accompany students”, since their works will be permanently at their own disposal, from any computer, cell phone or PDA connected to the Internet.

Within the framework of the 60th anniversary of the creation of the State of Israel, Asociación ORT Argentina and the Keren Kaiemet Leisrael organized a ceremony at Plaza Israel on June 11th.

On the basis of the Jewish tradition, all Jews (those who lived before us, those who will live after us, and ourselves), stood at Mount Sinai and heard the proclamation of the Covenant, which is symbolically recreated every year in Shavuot. By planting the seven fruits with which Israel was blessed on the Deuteronomy book – “a land with wheat and barley, vines, fig trees, pomegranates, olive oil and honey” – both Institutions renovated the commitment of our community with the Land of Israel.

Each generation knows that it is not isolated; its work is possible thanks to the achievements of the previous generations, and to the efforts to be carried out by the following ones, which may lead to the fulfillment of its own mission or not.

At the ceremony, different personalities were present, such as the Ambassador in Argentina of the State of Israel, community authorities, representatives of the Jewish Agency, officials from the Government of the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires, school high-ranking professionals, teachers, and students.

Opening Ceremony 2008

Today morning, the Opening Ceremony of the 2008 school year was carried out at each campus, during which the outstanding students of the year 2007 were awarded, ORT Virtual Campus was introduced, and the attendants were informed of a joint initiative with the Asociación Argentina de Cultura Inglesa, among other projects scheduled for this year.

At Belgrano campus, the Educational Robotics Laboratory and the Multipurpose Laboratory were inaugurated; while in Almagro, the architect Darío Jaraj -General Secretary of ORT Argentina Board of Directors- talked about the acquisition of a new, adjacent land site, located in Yatay and Bartolomé Mitre.

"Today we can see the emotion in the faces of parents, and also the enthusiasm and curiosity your eyes show. This is your first day at a school which has been in our country for 72 years; a school which has gained national and international recognition, thanks to the effort of its teachers, senior staff and lay leaders, who knew how to consolidate the academic excellence", said Adrián Moscovich, Executive Director of ORT Argentina, to the 1st-year students.

"Joy is that intense, ostensible happiness that appears in the faces of parents when they know that their kids are ok, in the smile of grandparents when they are close to their grandchildren, and at the beginning of this school year at ORT, which is a milestone to us all. The academic life, as we conceive it in ORT, should be something that provokes passion and enthusiasm. We want every educational act to be intense and meaningful”, said the School Principal Viviana Jasid.

"The beginning of each school year leads us back to an act of creation: we will all give life to the place we will share to discover scientific theories, to dive into the digital world, to analyze the events that surround us, to read stories, to experience the world of nature; to sum up, a space in which the goals and challenges we have as a school are renewed, and where children will introduce theirs. Here we will establish bonds which will enable us to progress, to get training and to build the future", said –in turn- the School Principal Diana Grimbe.
