Introduction

SUSTAINABILITY

Sustainability means different things to different organizations. For The Rotary Foundation, sustainability means providing solutions to the needs of the community so that the beneficiary community can sustain activities after funding ends. Global grant projects must be sustainable and have the following characteristics:

Community Needs - The host community and Rotary project sponsors develop projects based on community assessment of their needs and strengths.

Appropriate Technology - Design materials are appropriate for the community and, ideally, are purchased locally.

Sustainable funding - The community is able to sustain the project without ongoing financial support from The Rotary Foundation or other Rotary sources.

Knowledge transfer - The project includes the beneficiaries of teaching how to meet their continuing needs after the project is completed.

Training - The project provides training and supervision to teachers and heads of teaching.

Motivation - Schools receiving the equipment will be able to take ownership of the project upon completion.

Monitoring and evaluation - The project includes a measurement plan to confirm a significant improvement, ideally for at least three years.

We identified the need for schools to carry out scheduled visits, inspecting the facilities and registering the needs of the schools.

The acquisition will address the needs of school-age students for improvements in basic education and improvement of pedagogical tasks proposed by teachers.

All management and teachers are committed to receive the project because they have been technologically outdated for many years, hampering teaching to school-age students.

The project provides training and supervision to teachers and heads of teaching.

The school will be accredited after delivery and will not need new Rotary resources, and will constantly review the equipment according to the training that will be given. In order to make this project sustainable, day care centers participate in events organized by the Rotary Club of Blumenau-Fortaleza every year and have the participation of the school community to help financially. The funds will be applied to improvements to the computer room with the help of the global grant.

The financial resources obtained by the global grant project will allow the use of equipment without the need for repairs and for three years the Rotary Club of Blumenau-Fortaleza will contribute to the proper maintenance by promoting its events and helping the Association of Parents and Teachers - APP.

Regarding environmental sustainability, we are proposing that the schools and Rotary Club of Blumenau-Fortaleza plant seedlings.

2 Rationale and Need

The digital nursery project with computerized rooms will be run in three public day care centers in the city of Blumenau, Santa Catarina, Brazil, and will directly benefit about 555 school-age students from the schools: Escola Isolada Alves Ramos, CEI Anilda Batista Schimitt, CEI Manoela Reinert, being directly responsible the associations of parents and teachers of the mentioned educational entities.

Its general objective is to expand the possibilities of working in the computer room, air-conditioning with refrigerators two rooms and bring the functionality to this school environment to improve the education of all children and the literacy of children, youth and adults.

With the international support of Rotary Club, District, and District partners, the project will be widely used to promote the professional development of our teachers, through foreign language exchange, and partnership in future city projects.

The day care centers are located in needy communities in the municipality, where most parents have a family base to provide outsourced services and rely on the school as the great partner in the integral basic education of their children. The Alves Ramos Secluded School is located far from the big city center, with very difficult access and with basic services restrictions.

How will it meet the needs of the community? Estimated beneficiaries.

This project will be executed by the Rotary Club of Blumenau-Fortaleza, District 4650 - SC - Brazil and Rotary clubs partners: Rotary Club ... that will use their own resources and financial aid from partners of the districts to which they belong (4650; ) and The Rotary Foundation through the use of a Global Grant for the purchase of computers and software for the installation of equipment in computer rooms and for the training of operators.

It should be noted that previously this project, the Rotary Club of Blumenau-Fortaleza carried out an action among friends for the collection of financial resources, which generated resources that have already been used in the revitalization of the computer rooms of the schools, which are ready to receive the equipment to be obtained through this Global Grant.

This project will serve in two shifts the students enrolled in these school units, about 555 students of school age, enabling the active participation of each student in the pedagogical activities prepared by the class teacher and by discipline, giving them the opportunity to carry out research and work school children.

According to the principals of the schools benefiting from the project, the new computer rooms can be opened to the students' parents, to the entire community that does not have the resources to have a computer at home to do research and gain knowledge.

In the year 2018/19 there will be classes of students from preschool to 10 years of age, and students of day care and isolated school will participate in this room as elementary school students and the program to encourage culture, using this tool to research, fun, learning, training and extending the possibilities of autonomy in the use of the computer.

The project will expand the possibilities for the life of school-age students by contributing to their education and literacy, expand methodological resources of teachers with exchange and new tools and software for their professional improvement, motivating them in more creative classes and transmitting more knowledge to students, in addition to creating a social and interactive space in these school communities, favoring integral development.

Every sustainable project has to be concerned with continuity and constant improvement, and with this project our teacher will receive the exchange of professional knowledge from several American experts, professors from California universities, in this way he will improve his curriculum by expanding his resources to teach students.

Educational institutions, regardless of whether or not they want this paradox, need to educate children with a minimum of structure and assistance from the rulers. It is up to them to improve the way they transmit knowledge and reduce differences among existing classes. mission to meet the needs of the school community.

It is imperative to apply all possible resources to form the CITIZEN and encourage their creativity, making him question this quest for perfection and the constant development and use of computer rooms can make a great contribution to this.

Living with teachers, management and students, we realize the need of projects to organize issues such as: lighting, air conditioning, comfort, cleanliness of structures and technology directed to education to improve learning and socialization of school children.
