IS THAT ALL IT TAKES? A Highly Scaleable Model
"Some of my students are unlettered despite
having attended school. Each session is no
longer than 15 minutes, relies deeply on
asking children questions instead of telling
them things that they repeat. When it
comes to recognizing words, for
instance, it isn’t just about identifying
letters. The toolkit, an inexpensive `50
pack, starts by relating pictures to
syllables. Those syllables are then
combined to make words. In bite-
sized pieces with visual and auditory
cues each child is then taught to
recognize words.
The toolkit has 30 lessons — 60 short
videos, books, alphabet cutouts and
stationery items.
In Lucknow, India, Dr Sunita Gandhi an
educationist has been doing just that,
free of cost, for out-of school children."
