Local participants in UB workshop came back to their aimags and conducted local workshop in November among teachers of kindergarten and teachers of 1^st and 2^nd grade students, parents involved in project. Total 43 teachers of the 1^st and 2^nd grade students, 49 kindergarten teachers and 39 parents have respectively participated in workshops that have been held on Ulaanbaatar, Khovd Orkhon, Dundgovi and Dornod aimags.

We have successfully completed “web 2.0” technological upgrade to our website for the purpose of providing more opportunities to work together, share lessons and experiences and increase participation for parents, teachers and other users.

The front-end workshop was conducted on October 12-13, 2011 in Ulaanbaatar by Educational Wave NGO. In this workshop, David Porter who is the international consultant and executive director of BCcampus in the University of British Columbia in Canada participated in to make a series of presentations on relevant issues and to provide us recommendation on project process.

One of the outputs that have to be done in report period is certainly “Deciding age” handbook. We took considerable time for developing activities including finalizing handbook materials, taking photos, editing and designing.

Abstract
With this proposed project, we aim to study the behavioural impacts of parents and kindergarten and primary school teachers when they use and adapt early childhood education learning materials from open educational resource (OER) repositories worldwide, localizing them to the Mongolian context, and making them freely available for use by kindergartens, schools and parents. We propose do this work based on research relating to issues that are commonly observed among Mongolian parents. For example, some questions we would raise are: Are the adapted OER resources pedagogically better in terms of content, pedagogy, engaging and interesting for the child?
1. Were they able to create such learning resources quicker than they would have otherwise experienced?
2. Do communities of parents and teachers come together and continuously add, revise, improve the resources?
