Student Supportive Website

Hello,

we have the privilege to announce that the Student Supportive Website has been completed. It consists of an ECP Discussion Forum and an ECP Upload Server. Both websites are now undergoing through the phases of final testing and error correction.

ECP Discussion Forum is accessible on http://ecpsc.forumer.com. This is a special Forum designed for people to post their Questions, Replies, Advices and Announcements matching their appropriate Year. Their post can be related to their work at school or any other topic related to E.C.P. that they wish everybody to know about. e.g. John Smith from Yr. 5 would like to know, how many words does his Extend Essay need to contain? Therefore he logs on to this website and tries to obtain some information about it, from his classmates.

ECP Upload Server is accessible either on www.thepytel.ic.cz OR on www.pytel.tk. Pytel is the Czech word for "Bag"; this briefly describes the main function of this website. It is supposed to store your work (files) that you have not finished working on at school, so that you can download them comfortably at your home computer and continue working on them (it obviously works the other way round; home to school).

Special thanks belong to Hai Mac Duy (5JB) for programming the Upload Server and Jindrich Kopta (6CH) for assisting during the configuration and running of the Discussion Forum.

Both websites will be available from the Menu of this website www.ecpstudentcouncil.tk



Thank you, Your Student Council
