> Hello all, > > I'm pleased to announce that the Goa Schools Computers Project (GSCP) has > completed another successful year of existence. During this past year 350 > donated used PC's were distributed to 100 schools all over Goa. The list of > schools is available on the GSCP website. > > Having partially addressed the problem of actute shortage of PC's for kids, > we have now begun to introduce the concept of Computer Assisted Teaching > (and learning). The link below shows students at a school in Siolim using a > Intel microscope attached to a computer to study samples of plants and > animals in biology. With very few conventional microscopes, students had to > take turns using them. Now more of them can view the samples > at the same time. www.goasudharop.org/gscp/help.htm#intel > > We are offering non resident goenkars the chance to make a difference in the > lives of village children by sponsoring a microscope for your village > school. For a donation of $75, we will purchase a microscope and install it > at the school, and you will receive a receipt (which qualifies for a tax > deduction in the US), a photograph of the installed microscope at the > school, and a letter of thanks from the school. > Interested persons may send in their contributions by check to Goa Sudharop > Community Development > 67 Kingston Road, Kensignton, CA, 94707, USA > or by credit card from our website at www.goasudharop.org or > http://www.guidestar.org/partners/helping/donate.jsp?ein=68-0448361 > > Note that smaller amounts towards maintenance of computer labs are also > welcome. > > sincerely, > > Daryl Martyris > Project Manager > Goa Schools Computers Project > www.goasudharop.org/gscp > >
