First Week in Classroom
We have just finished the second phase of the teacher’s preparation programme by the starting of this week.It was a onsite programme and we were prepared for making the lesson plans while implementing the E-paatis in the classroom.I was rather concerned to the time management while using the E-paatis during teaching,since in the very first day,it was quite difficult to finish the class in more than one hour and fifteen minutes ,which was planned for fourty-five minutes.

Teacher Preparation Program for the OLPC Project Part II
We have just completed Part II of our teacher preparation program. The complete teacher training consisted of two segments: Part I) A 4 day intensive residential, out-of-school training that focuses on integrating digitial educational materials and ICT-based teaching approaches in the regular classroom instruction process. This was completed on April 1, 2008. An earlier blog post has details about this segment of the training. Part II) A 4 day training in the teachers’ regular classrooms where they get hand-on experience in developing, implementing, and fine-tuning child-centric, interactive, ICT-integrated lesson plans. This was completed on Friday, May 2, 2008. The current post is about this segment only.

Laptop project formally launched
On April 25, 2008, Open Learning Exchange Nepal (OLE Nepal) distributed a total of 135 OLPC laptops to grade 2 and 6 students from two schools in the outskirts of Kathmandu Valley. These were addition to the 22 laptops that were handed out to teachers from the schools during the teacher preparation program held a month ago. The laptop project was undertaken in partnership with Nepal government's Department of Education (DoE). This project is part of OLE Nepal's mission to increase quality of education while reducing current disparity in access and quality between school types, regions, and population groups by integrating ICT-based education in daily teaching-learning process. The laptops for the project were donated by the Danish IT Society in Copenhagen.
