The ongoing collaboration with TTWF (Teach the World Foundation) to
implement digital learning, is bearing fruits. The digital learning program
currently brings Math, English and Bangla to one hundred and twenty-four
preschool and working children in Geneva Camp, Dhaka. The program will be expanded to serve over 1,000 students in 2018.
In the pre-alpha phase of the project, that lasted from April to July, forty-eight preschool kids and thirty working children were included in the intervention group.
The control group consisted of fifty preschool kids and twenty-five working children.
After successful completion of the pre-alpha phase, the alpha
phase began in September 2017. Currently, four sessions of preschool kids and two sessions of working children comprise the intervention group in Geneva Camp. The control
group consists of fifty preschool kids in Mirpur.
The pre-assessment of the project has been completed by OBAT. Research partner ITA (Institute of Technology Assessment), carried out a
midline assessment in December coupled with a
household survey of each student as well as focus group discussions
with facilitators, parents and students. We are grateful to TTWF for joining hands with us to revolutionize learning in the camps.
