Esoft goes for Intel Learn Easy Steps
Esoft Metro Campus entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU)
with Intel Sri Lanka on the adoption of Intel Learn Easy Steps. The
program addresses the needs of adults and youth around the world who
seek to learn basic digital literacy skills. Esoft Metro Campus will use
this as a primary instruction module for fundamental technology
education in its branch network.
Under this MoU, Intel and Esoft Metro Campus will create a platform
to implement Intel Learn Easy Steps as a primary instruction module for
fundamental technology education at the Esoft Metro Campus branch
network, to accelerate access and effective use of technology to
increase and improve opportunities for education.
Intel will provide a no-fee licence to use and replicate Intel Learn
materials, access the Intel Education Help Guide, services of a senior
trainer to conduct a 'Train-the-Trainer' and no-fee licence to use and
replicate the Intel Entrepreneurship Basics materials.
Managing Director, Esoft Metro Campus, Dr. Dayan Rajapakse said, "Sri
Lanka needs to do more to properly use ICT in higher educational
institutions to improve quality, widen access and reduce the costs of
learning."
"Technology can strengthen the three critical elements of higher
educational institutions: research, service to the community and
teaching. We commend the great work done by Intel Sri Lanka to develop
the standard of education in Sri Lanka through technology; we believe
that Intel Learn Easy Steps will be an engaging platform for students,"
he said. |
