The E Village project is located in the computer laboratory of the Batuwangala Nawodya Maha Vidyalaya. The computer laboratory was set up by the SEMP, project MOE,GOSLwith the intention of improving ICT and English skills among the student population. Classes are conducted in the computer laboratory for the students. Alternative and innovative methods are used to encourage children to improve their English skills. The emphasis is on application; thus students are encouraged to speak and write in English . Usage of emails and internet is one means through which this is encouraged. Teachers are encouraged to use the laboratory to teach other subjects as well by developing interactive lesson materials, power point and other computer based visual aid methods. The Sri Lankan education system is often criticized for using outdated teaching material and lagging behind in science and technology education. Strengthening our computer laboratory could be one of the most beneficial ways of addressing this problem. children at Batuwangala are mainly from village farming families. Their meagre family income is hardly enough for their day to day existence, let alone paying exorbitant school computer facilities. . It is our moral responsibility to support and look after these poor and deprived children. Please listen to their tale of woe, and make your choice to sponsor a child and share his cost of basic education, just 300LRK a month. This is our long term sponsorship program, please be kind enough to participate in the scheme (3600LKR per year per child) to help us, one can sponsor more than one child. Click here to contact us
