France – New learning platform takes Don Bosco’s educational mission online

(ANS – Paris) – In Don Bosco's time, once a school was founded, the main technological challenge consisted in guaranteeing the quality and distribution of printed material. Today the challenge is for every student to have access to a digital learning platform with all the essential features required for high-quality online education. To address this challenge, Don Bosco Intuition Entertainers Media, an international NGO, has been commissioned by the province of FRB, headed by provincial, Daniel Federspiel, to develop several digital solutions. Along with their partner Cagliero Creative Solutions, they have developed CaglieroLMS, a learning management system platform specifically designed for state-of-the-art online education. The presentation of this innovative project is scheduled for next May 1st and will see the participation of the General Councilor for Social Communication, Fr Gildásio Mendes.  

“Cagliero Creative Solutions” is quickly gaining international recognition having already developed products for various companies and organizations, co-producing products with entities like BoscoSoft and EsaCineTech.

CaglieroLMS was designed specifically for the Don Bosco Network of Schools and Technical Centers and is capable of managing a single school or a network of institutions. The platform has the power to take the Don Bosco mission online, giving our students an educational experience that is second to none anywhere in the world. Easier to use, yet with more features than expensive alternatives, it is a complete system that requires no additional software. It works across all devices, desktop and mobile, and is designed for areas of low bandwidth. Ideal for schools that are in difficult-to-reach geographic areas. Among the features: scheduling, secure teacher/student interactions, video, chat and messaging, content creation, exams with automated grading, and complete administration control. And the platform is “Salesian Spirit Incorporated”, accompanying students on their Salesian family path with awards and recognition for participation and volunteer activities.

Director of the NGO, Don Bosco Intuition Entertainers Media, Fr John Paul Swaminathan tells us. “The use of this platform will improve the online education of all our students and give our network the ability to manage and share resources. We will even be able to share classes using the video conferencing feature. It will also save the Don Bosco Network money. Money spent on outside services leaves our network, but with CaglieroLMS all funds go back into Don Bosco projects and into helping the schools of our network who are facing difficult times.”

So the Cagliero Creative Solutions invites all to walk in the digital footsteps of Don Bosco into the future of online education.

The online release and celebration of this platform will be on 1st May 2021 at 20:00h (French TIME) on www.cagliero.eu
