The program "Saksharta through digitization" has to do with a scenario about adult women without education. It is necessary to provide this group with basic learning classes; therefore, we introduced literacy classes through computers. This is an opportunity where all women take primary education and take advantage of opportunities to learn about the use of computers. The project serves around 30 participants in each batch with a twelve-week program.
5000 Women in rural areas are the weakest group when compared to others in the area of elementary literacy. Therefore, we introduced literacy classes through computers where they get primary education and take advantage of opportunities to learn about the use of computers and also a positive attitude and they can not do any daily digital needs like banking, post office.
The women were enrolled from slums in project with the aims to enhance the literacy through computers. The main objective of this project is to aware about computers as well as to literate them. catering for about 30 participants in 1 batch .small group meetings to talk on the merits of education. They will easily compete with the digital India, can do basic post office work ,banking and money transfers through computers.
Women looked nervous but excited about coming to the classes where all the sessions will take through computers. It seems that their anxiety about using learning in classes through computers was simply because they did not want to "break" them. However, after 2-3 weeks of hands-on practice, their fears dissipated . They also felt more confident and more comfortable to learn their lessons and also participate where their children talked about computer and digital world.
