Implementation of e-Learning and associated Capacity Building for identified schools in Bhutan
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, some of the schools and universities have to offer their courses online and e-Learning is felt as important more than ever. This project is a pilot project on improving ICT infrastructure and capacity building for supporting e-Learning in schools in Bhutan. This project will partly assist the Royal Government of Bhutan especially the Ministry of Education in implementing the government\'s project called \"Digital Schools\" which is a part of Digital Drukgyul Flagship programme.
This project has three components namely 1) building the campus network infrastructure in the schools, 2) the connecting schools to National Research & Education Network, and 3) capacity building of network/system administrators to manage the infrastructure, teachers to develop contents and use e-learning for their teaching/learning procedures, and training students to use e-learning to support their learning.
