Current Classroom
Efforts Initiated or the Process of Transformation
Initially, we decided to buy at least one computer but main problem was finance. So I purchased a laptop
and projector from my pocket and started teaching students with technology. They were so excited and
happy. They liked to learn with laptop. Student‘s ellobrately talked about technology innovations and new
way of learning with their parents. Curious parents some day‘s come to school and took interest in school
problems. The responses of the students were very impressive and I was also encouraged by the members
of the school management committee. Other school teachers also helped me in this project. We started to
speak to the children in school 30 minutes early in the morning so that the children could be given more
time and not even rest the school curriculum. The members of the School Management Committee also
started giving time to the school. To meet the needs of school money, we started to meet many donors of
Navsari. Tiny smiling face group gives us a smart board and computers. In this way our work got
momentum. I spoke to the teachers for the need of the school computer and decided that every teacher
should pay 100 rupees per month for his salary. As a principal I contributed 500 rupees per month, and
this money is opened in one school account and deposited in it. The members of the School Management
Committee are ready to give 100 rupees per month. Knowing this fact, parents are ready to co-operate,
every student in the school contributed 10 rupees per month. In this way managed to bring the computer in
the school. Within 1 year, 3 computers were installed. After taking the computer every Saturday, Students
start learning the computer after 11 am to 2 pm in extra class in school timing. The keys of a computer lab
are accessible to the students so that students who are willing to learn can learn computer even on a
Sunday. Members of the School Management Committee usually come to school with students on Sunday
and watch the children's computer work. There was talk of keeping the guardian meeting in school at first.
