About the Edurite Machine: (picture attached – front and back)
Edurite Equipment: UPS (2 hours battery backup)/ CPU/ Keybord & Mouse/ Projector/ Speakers/ Software
Cost: Rs. 95000/- + taxes (including 1 year AMC charges) + 25000 AMC charges fro the 2nd year onwards. AMC includes total hardware as well as soft ware maintenance and training of teachers.
Software:
Class 1- 12 (CBSE & ICSE syllabus)
Class 1 to 8 Maths and Science (in English Language only)
Class 8 to 12 Maths, Science, Engligh and Social Science
Hindi software is only for classes 9th and 10th.
Points discussed:
- The concept as a whole was much appreciated as a tool for enhancing student’s capability to grasp the subject.
- The machine is quite user friendly to operate and comes with a self teaching module for teachers in English & Hindi.
- The software is in English only for the primary class. Most of the schools supported by RTI in Area V are believed to be not fluent in English (Hindi Medium) and thus the compatibility of the software with the children as well as the teachers may be an issue.
- it was thus suggested and agreed that a similar demo be organized at 50’s Mandi school, 149’s Nangloi school and 43’s Najafgarh school and get a first hand reaction of student as well as the teachers.
The 1st demo would be held in Nangloi school on 25th September 2007.
I request tablers who have not attended the demo today to come for this demo. You can talk to Tr. Salil Rai at 9810112024 for the address and direction to reach the school.
