Welcome to Saaraketha.blogspot.com, a blog about our experiences while working with the Saaraketha organization in Sri Lanka. As the website says (http://saaraketha.com/), Saaraketha means "bountiful field", and this project believes in sustainable agriculture and that "man and nature can exist in harmony".
My name is Patrick O'Shea, and I've been invited to participate in Saaraketha through the Fulbright Specialist program (http://www.cies.org/specialists/). In this capacity, I am helping the organization to envision new and innovative ways to incorporate technology into their educational initiatives.
This blog is intended as a repository of my thoughts during the three weeks that I'm spending in Sri Lanka. In addition, other authors will be posting to document their thoughts as well as they spend time participating with Saaraketha in other capacities and at other timeframes. I'll let these individuals introduce themselves, but suffice it to say that I won't be the only voice that is heard on this blog.
