An online e-learning portal which contains all the available resources at one place for Tamil medium students in Sri Lanka

For the past 2 months, COVID 19 has brought drastic changes in the whole world. In Sri Lanka, the government has imposed back to back curfews to reduce the gatherings of people. Therefore, most of the people started to work from home. In the student perspective, some teachers started to teach using modern technologies like WhatsApp/Viber to send notes and other needed resources as different formats like videos and PDF contents.

A group of open-minded people from Jaffna gathered a meeting through Zoom every Saturday at 2 PM (IST) to discuss e-learning for Tamil medium students in Sri Lanka. Lots of members from Charity and Non-profit organization members are giving their support on this discussion.

They have taken 2 main action items on improving e-learning during the past meetings

1. Creating an online portal that contains all the list of resources for students in Tamil.
2. Conducting a workshop for teachers on how they can improve their teaching ability using Technology devices.

https://tamilkalvi.online/ is an online portal created to list out all the available resources for students and teachers to get to know. Interestingly this site has got a huge interest among students and teachers.

Currently, the workshop is happening. Til now 2 workshops about how to handle technology devices and how to use google classroom effectively were held among teachers.190 teachers were registered for the workshop and out of that 120 teachers participated.

Still, these open-minded people are having these meetings on how they can improve and support their society by educating future leaders of the Earth. If you are too interested to join this to have your contribution please contact Mr.Sarveswaran (Lecturer University of Jaffna) - iamsarves@gmail.com who is the coordinator of this wonderful future building movement.

Since this meeting doesn't belong to any organization or having any committee/board I just gave the contact person details only. But, thanks to all those who are contributing their time and money on building this society a rigid one.
