Chief Adviser Professor Muhammad Yunus today directed authorities concerned to introduce e-learning at least 100 schools in the Chittagong Hill Tracts (CHT) within this year by resolving all crises immediately.
He gave the directives at a meeting at the State Guest House Jamuna here.
The meeting was attended by Chittagong Hill Tracts Affairs Adviser Supradip Chakma, Liberation War Affairs and Disaster Affairs Adviser Faruk-e-Azam, Food and Land Adviser Ali Imam Majumder, Principal Secretary to the Chief Adviser M Siraz Uddin Miah and officials concerned.
The officials said there are three types of challenges in introducing virtual learning in schools in the CHT.
There is a shortage of electricity in remote areas, no internet connection and a lack of skilled teachers in the area to conduct such activities, they said.
To this end, the Chief Adviser suggested using solar panels to solve the power shortage and using mobile networks and Starlink services to deal with the crisis.
To address the shortage of skilled teachers, he also suggested preparing a list of schools and appointing teachers on contract-basis in those schools for a specific period.বিস্তারিত
