E-literacy project for schools catering to low income groups/students from below poverty line group
Technology has the power to transform education. It is essential to bring it into the classroom to empower learning. Whereas schools with affluent students can afford latest technology to improve the learning process and grades of their students, schools catering to children from lower income groups are devoid of this facility resulting that they are left behind thereby increasing the gap between the two classes. The project targets schools or those educational which either charge either Nil or negligible fee from the students. Our attempt is to benefit students belonging to lower income groups who send their wards to such schools. By targeting 39 schools, with an average of 400-500 students per school, the project targets approximately 18000 students each year.
This program aims to improve the quality of students' education though use of high quality curriculum-based E-Learning (audio-visual) modules in local language and this enhance knowledge absorption and abilities of children in selected Government and non-government schools run by philanthropic voluntary organizations. The requisites of E-Learning are:-
a. A Projector/Television
b. A white screen or white painted/lime washed wall for projection in the even that a projector is being used.
c. Software as per state board, local language and curriculum.
d. Electricity or solar power enabling projector/television.
It is proposed to cover 80 schools in the first phase.
