The Cabinet of Ministers has approved a proposal tabled by the Minister of Education to implement the digital transformation of general education in Sri Lanka with support from the Chinese government.
The Chinese government has agreed to provide for the project, following a feasibility study, the government said in a statement.
The proposed project is expected to mitigate several issues such as the shortage of teachers and resources. Under the project, the Chinese government will assist in providing classrooms, data centres, tables, a studio and a conference room.
These resources will support the education reforms as well as the effective and efficient performance of the blended learning method, sharing resources, and imparting the knowledge of teachers with special skills to the students. (Newswire)
