Abstract

The Educational System in the Canary Islands has more than 650 centres and no less than 340,000 students. These are distributed in the scope of a community characterised by their fragmentation and insularity. The Autonomous Canary Government has created PINCEL through its Department of Education,Culture and Sport. P.I.N.C.E.L. stands for “Programa de Informatizaci6n de Centros Educativos según la LOGSE:” (Programme to Computerise Educational Centres in accordance with the Education Act.). PINCEL-NET is the natural technical evolution of the present software application. It makes use of Internet/Intranet technology and covers all the needs of both Teaching Centres and Central Administration, improving productivity of all the agents involved in the education system.
