For this project, the K-12 teachers would not be available from 8-4 pm. So most of the call traffic would be between 4-9 pm.
To give you an idea of the scope, my friend just finished training 1400 public school teachers in El Salvador. They have no plan for continuing education. The idea is to connect these 1400 people by way of a membership and a pay-as-you-go fee scheme.
At best, they could call in and be connected immediately with one (or possible more) teachers in the same network. This way they could talk to one another on the phone in English.
At the very least, If no one were available, they could have the opportunity to do a short listening and interactive learning activity based on (several thousand) mp3 podcasts which they could access and then record their responses. They would like to be able to save their responses as a .wav file.
The Salvadorian education system has more than 40,000 public school teachers.
The dream is to imagine such a system where people access native speaking voices on a variety of topics and then can either talk about them directly with another teacher, or respond in voicemail that could be saved for others to review.
There would be a fully commercial application for this as well. But the idea is to do it with the public sector as a pilot. My friend thanks for your interest. Again the original request is at http://tinyurl.com/schoolvoip.
(One final item, not related... I want to thank Fred Posner of TeamForrest, Cox Communications, Skype, Digium, DIDX, Comtel-Networks, WSRE PBS, Max Glucksmann, Alan Pesatty, Steven Cayona, and Paul Turso Deane for helping with the linkingarms.org nonprofit telethon using open source technologies. We'll do a case study soon and post to TMCNET and voip-info.)
