About Us

ABOUT DANAU BLOGSPHERE
Danau Blogsphere is a collection of blogs for people who are passionate about knowledge and learning. Our editors give special attention to the publication of local contents in all of our blogs. The relevance of the published content in the context of living and learning within the educational, social, cultural and geopolitical framework of our country, Malaysia, is assured.

Danau Blogsphere is the realization of DANAU’s commitment to connect people, especially Malaysians, to knowledge and information in a meaningful manner. Danau Blogsphere will be the common name for all our thematic blogs. Currently we have two blogs in the making, Knowledge Seeker and Legal Pages.

ABOUT KNOWLEDGE SEEKER
We learn every day and everywhere. We also learn, or fail to learn, without knowing it. Learning is part and parcel of our everyday life and it is for this very reason that Knowledge Seeker, the blog, exists. In simple terms, Knowledge Seeker is a blog dedicated to people who love knowledge and have passion for learning.

MISSION & PURPOSE
We learn as much outside of the classroom as we do inside, if not more. In recent years, however, the prevalent and increasingly pervasive use of ICT in our lives changes the way we do things, including learning. Learning can be personalized, accessible from anywhere but more importantly learning will become more informal.

The mission of Knowledge Seeker is to provide an medium from which learning can be informal and yet meaningfully connected to the real world. In the end, we hope to inspire people to pursue knowledge beyond enrichment and to act upon what they know to improve their lives and the people around them.

Our purpose is to make connections between what is learned in school and the world outside, to expose educators and knowledge seekers to the new web technologies that is shaping the world, to make learning more interesting and more connected to people and places, and to inspire people to pursue knowledge beyond enrichment.

WHO ARE WE?
