Reach of Online Education in Rural India
Tumblr media
The concept of E-learning was introduced in the late nineties. But it was never a popular method of acquiring education until the Covid pandemic arrived. The pandemic acted as a catalyst as people couldn’t leave their homes and had to switch to online methods for learning. Since then, online education has become a ubiquitous part of our education system. The urban area of the country are leveraging internet and electronic mobile devices to purse reputed courses like NMIMS distance MBA, distance BBA, distance BSc along with short term professional certifications.
In rural areas, before covid arrived, Online education was never a thing. Neither, the rural areas have Internet facilities which is the basic requirement of e-learning, nor people are aware. After covid, a lot of students who were studying in urban areas had to shift back to their native places which were not very developed in terms of technology. They reported to face a number of problems when it came to continuing their studies using the Internet as the pandemic hit at a critical time when the academic year 2019-20 was about to end, and it was very important for the students and the institutions to complete their classes.
Poor data connectivity, a lack of access to computers and smartphones, and power problems in villages made it difficult for the students to access the online courses offered by their universities. Students have been known to go to locations outside their villages in quest of the elusive mobile wireless connection. The media has reported a case where a child in Karnataka climbed a tree to get a strong enough mobile signal. Managing access to online classes was extremely difficult for students, particularly girls. 
A survey that expresses the condition of Online Education in India
Tumblr media
Many challenges which are now faced regarding online education are revealed by a study of a Government First Grade College (GFGC). The college is situated near the taluk office, which is 20 kilometres from the district office and 90 kilometres from Bengaluru, the state capital.
The students that go to this college are around 20 km from the area around the institutions. The college offers graduation and post-graduation courses and has 1060 students in total. The college switched to online methods of teaching after the pandemic. A survey was conducted and input was taken from 20 faculty members(a total was 21) and 724 students with the purpose of taking feedback regarding the online method of learning in remote areas.
Results of the survey:
Teachers communicate with students through a variety of channels, including websites, youtube videos, Jnana Nidhi (a YouTube channel), WhatsApp videos, and reading notes sent via email and Whatsapp. 
With 66 percent of all techniques employed, sharing reading notes with students was found to be the most effective way.
Each faculty member connected with students on average 30 times. 
For their own internal meetings, the academics used the collaboration technology ZOOM. 
Teachers reported that they are facing problems due to a lack of assistance regarding new technology.
The faculty had no knowledge of how to make lesson films.
60% of the professors said it was challenging to make videos on their smartphones.
80% of the staff was not having any broadband connection and they were using their personal Internet to teach their students.
65 % of faculty faced signal issues.
Power Issues were also faced by all the members who were part of the program.
The majority of issues faced were regarding poor data connectivity.
Lack of training
Tumblr media
Reasons why Online education cannot reach remote areas 
No availability of the latest smart devices and a lack of accessibility to the online content that urban citizens enjoy daily.
Do not have enough resources to buy a personal laptop or desktop, depending on family members’ devices for studying 
Can not afford expensive data plans.
Lack of awareness among people due to which they do not support the facility for their children.
Tumblr media
Suggestions (Steps towards Transformation)
Availability of the tutor all the time.
Proper training regarding the technology part for both teachers and students 
Clarity of technical doubts.
Creating a community between students- teachers and students- students to deal with any issues, learn about hobbies and interests of the other p[erson, etc.
Exploration with more and more tools so that the process can be made easier and more convenient.
Orienting students about all the changes coming in the Online Education system
Introducing various methods of Interaction, group discussions, and activities so that active learning can be encouraged.
Organizing the study material in such a way that it is easily adaptable to the students.

How long was it between when Iroh convinced Zuko to take up the Fire Throne, and Sozin's comet? A day? Less??
AU where Iroh convinces Zuko to be the next Fire Lord MUCH earlier in the series. Zuko, who hasn't been in formal education since was 13yo, understandably panics. He barely remembers his lessons on How To Be the Fire Lord, and they were all focused on how to rule during wartime. Not peace. What does an international peace treaty even LOOK like and how does one go about making it???? How does trade work when you're NOT trying to eradicate every other nation????
Book 3 Zuko spends all of his time teaching Aang firebending, interrogating the other members about their culture's traditions and politics, going on Blue Spirit journeys to raid any passing libraries, and reading everything he can get his hands on. He barely eats. He doesn't sleep. He's info dumping about the DRIEST political texts. The gaang are THIS close to holding an intervention or having Toph sit on him until he sleeps.

Someone pissed me off a couple of days ago
So! Below are several links to programs and foundations that promote adult literacy! Hundreds of millions of adults world wide were failed by their education system and now must fend for themselves while trying to read contracts and hospital bills and infographics from the CDC. But they don't have to be alone, and it is never too late to learn!
ProLiteracy: A network of educators, researchers, and advocates which provides research reports, learning materials, and other support to adult education programs. They assist with connecting volunteers to local programs and provide guidance and support to community leaders trying to use their programs' findings to advocate for social and political change.
Adult Literacy League: An adult education program in Central Florida, which aims to provide students with one on one attention to foster growth and confidence. It also offers English Second Language courses and job skills training, and each new student receives a comprehensive assessment to determine the best plan for them.
Saint Vincent and Sarah Fisher Center's Foundational Skills Program: A 100% free adult education program aimed at adults reading below a fifth grade level. It operates year round and is either in person or remote, and they now have a GED testing center that is open to students and the public alike.
Washtenaw Literacy: A free network of trained tutors for adults in Washtenaw County, Michigan.
Adult Learning Program (Las Vegas/Clark County): Free education classes to those lacking a high school diploma, those seeking to learn ESL, and adults who read below an eighth grade level. Also assists in students' search for gainful employment. Nevada got so fucked by COVID and the education/literacy numbers in the South West are grim. Please help these guys.
Hawaii Literacy: In addition to helping adult residents of Hawaii Island learn to read and write AND bridging the education gap in Hawaii's underserved children, they offer computer literacy classes, ESL classes, and a bookmobile. 1 in 6 Hawaiian adults struggle to read and write.
#Not Stories#mutual aid#adult literacy#'uuhhhggg its soooo disappointing when i meet a girl who's like 'yeah omg i luv 2 read'#'and then she only reads booktok trash and grocery store thrillers and manga'#'like come on thats such a turn off :/'#'like aren't you bored??? what about reading The Foundation and War & Peace and Grapes of Wrath where's THAT girl haha'#nobody gives a shit what sort of high school reading list gets your dick stiff!

I'm less on team "what if more people voted" more "what if uninformed voters stayed the hell home."
The fact that so many people were googling in their booths "did joe biden drop out." The fact that so many progressive bills passed despite the advertisement campaigns against them in the same areas by the same margins that trump won. There were a lot of people this election cycle who checked the fuck out and voted based on name recognition. So many people who vote republican down the ballot out of ignorance, not because they align with those beliefs.
It reminds me of when my hometown had someone on the ballot who DID NOT LEGALLY EXIST because their name was first on the primary ballot, and people just voted for them because their name was listed first. (Guess who was listed first on most ballots....?)
Its still as useless as any other "what if," but still. More realistic than blaming people who didn't vote.

Classroom Wishlists for Low Income School
Hey everyone, I'm a first year English teacher at a Title I school in a rural area of Utah. Title I means that more than 1/3 of our student population lives in poverty and/or is otherwise economically disadvantaged. We have a racially diverse student body - many of my students are the children of immigrants, and almost 40% of our students have a documented disability of some kind. Because of the way that Utah funds schools, we do not have a lot of funding for individual classrooms and curriculum. We have school resources for our students, but it's difficult to have classroom resources to meet every student's needs.
My school teaches grades 7-12, and I teach all of the 8th graders and all of the 11th graders.
I have two Wishlists for my classroom. The first is general supplies and decorations - highlighters, whiteboards and erasers, fidget toys, incentives/awards for games, instructional books, etc. The second wishlist is books - YA novels of all genres, nonfiction books, classic novels, poetry, all kinds of books that will go in my classroom as a resource for students. I try to have a classroom library that reflects the diversity of the students I teach.
If you can order anything off either of these lists, it'll help me provide the best resources for my students and to have fewer things to worry about as I teach. If you can't buy anything, please reblog this post so that others may see it!
Wishlist 1 (general supplies) - https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/2PKKB8UL9K1ZY?ref_=wl_share
Wishlist 2 (books) - https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/OYY1PR7XDY0T?ref_=wl_share

A large portion of the world population suffers from some sort of disability. Some NGOs dedicate themselves to changing the lives of these people. By extending your support you can be part of their goodwill.

idk if im late to the party but i thought it was interesting that 1899 used plato's allegory but never really surfaced passed discussing the shadows vs the fire, only to reveal at the end that they themselves are living the rest of the allegory: theyre running away from the sun that is their reality bc it hurts too much. they prefer the shadows on the wall, the darkness of the cave, bc the light of their reality is too painful for them to accept.
