Abu-Ghazaleh Patronizes Graduation of Sukaina Bint Al Hussein Secondary School

The Tsunami of information technology is a threat to the conventional methods of teaching around the world and you have to prepare for it by embracing knowledge- HE Dr. Talal Abu-Ghazaleh

AMMAN------May 27, 2013------ HE Dr. Talal Abu-Ghazaleh, chairman of Talal Abu-Ghazaleh Organization (TAG-Org) and president of Talal Abu-Ghazaleh University (TAGIUNI) inaugurated Sukaina Bint Al Hussein Secondary School Graduation ceremony.

Around 500 students graduated from the school considered one of the oldest government schools in the Kingdom.

In his keynote speech, Dr. Abu-Ghazaleh guided students to the future of education saying: "I ask you to enjoy your days at school because in the coming future your sons and daughters will enjoy the blessings of virtual schools and universities."
 
"The Tsunami of information technology is a threat to the conventional methods of teaching around the world and you have to prepare for it by embracing knowledge," he added.

"New information and communication technologies have not only created unprecedented opportunities for democratizing education and making universal access to education possible but these technologies are also transforming the whole environment for knowledge creation, dissemination, and acquisition — thereby reinventing the very concepts on which traditional education and pedagogy are based," he said.
Dr. Abu-Ghazaleh introduced TAGIUNI, the gateway to the world’s best education, which partners with leading international education institutions to deliver accredited, world-class education to a global student body.

He added, "Talal Abu-Ghazaleh University is our endeavor to democratize education, promote global citizenship, and empower citizens who have been disenfranchised by the technological revolution. Our mission is to make accredited educational programs accessible to everyone, everywhere. Instead of competing with institutions, we are a global educational alliance — collaborating with elite universities to deliver their education, online, to achieve our mission."
 
Principal Ms. Entisar Shraydeh thanked Dr. Abu-Ghazaleh for his patronage and presented him with an honorary shield.

Meanwhile, HE Dr. Abu-Ghazaleh presented top students with TAGITOP at the end of the ceremony.
