ONLINE EDUCATION PLATFORM FOR SINDH
ONLINE EDUCATION PLATFORM FOR SINDH
The main objective of developing the online Education Platform for Sindh is to make formal education accessible through an online digital medium that ensures tracking, quality, and ease of use, primarily for intermediate college-level students in Sindh. However, the platform can also be used by college education at multiple levels and for diverse audiences.
The importance of this initiative becomes even more significant considering natural calamities, especially as observed during the COVID-19 pandemic, which halted the entire education system for more than a year and resulted in the loss of an academic year for students.
In addition, this initiative will help the Sindh Government explore innovative ways to reduce the dropout rate among students at the secondary and college levels.
Rising fuel prices are also making it difficult for students to commute and are causing them to spend a considerable amount on transportation.
