Computer Literacy

Project Details:

Most of the schools in Bangladesh don’t have computer labs to augment and facilitate education. The problem is more acute in schools outside the main cities. Having computer labs can expose students to the modern way of learning. It can also make the education more enjoyable and the students better prepared for a life where computers are now integral parts.

D.Net (Dhaka, Bangladesh) has a project with Ministry of Science and Information & Technology of Bangladesh Government where donation from Non Resident Bangladeshis (NRBs) and grant from Bangladesh Government are used to setup Computer Literacy Centers (CLC). SpaandanB Austin has joined hands with D.Net to setup Computer Literacy Centers (CLC) at high schools all over Bangladesh.
Each computer lab contains:
* 4 new brand-name laptop computers
* 1 printer
* Other computer peripherals
* Structured curriculum
* Teachers’ guide
* Internet with 1-year prepaid fee
* Training of two teachers
* Incentive remuneration for teachers and a students who are assist teachers after completing each batch of training
* One-year maintenance contract
