Electronic teaching aids for disabled children

ELECTRONIC TEACHING AIDS FOR DISABLED CHILDREN

(Project #21529 from Balajothi Centre for the Disabled)

Funding goal : $2000 / Funds raised to date : $561.51

Project Report due on : Dec 22, 2021 / Report sent on Dec 11, 2021

Balajothi continues to provide disabled children a caring environment where they can develop and grow into independent and confident adults. Our research and experience suggests that technology, especially devices like tablets and electronic toys can completely transform the way these children express themselves and interact with the world. With your help, we wish to equip our children and care-givers with these teaching aids.

Challenge

Children with special needs have much difficulty communicating and interacting with others. They also find it very difficult to grasp concepts like numbers and alphabets if they are taught using conventional class room techniques.

Solution

This project will equip our children and care-givers with electronic teaching aids like toys with audio-visual capabilities, lego blocks and tablets. Our experience has shown that these teaching aids completely transform the way children learn and interact. For example, they feel really comfortable with tablets and explore different apps by themselves. They also internalize concepts taught using these aids much more easily.

Long-Term Impact

This project will benefit all the children we train at our facility. In the long run, it will develop vocational skills such as typing and data entry that can help these children find jobs. It will also benefit our care givers.

Balajothi thanks YOU DONOR for your generous giving of $561.51 to date towards this worthy cause.  The use of these devices has been of immense benefit as the children’s learning abilities have improved significantly.  THANK YOU donor for making this to happen.  We value your donations during this pandemic and request you to continue your donations.

Balajothi thanks GlobalGiving for their ceaseless efforts in raising funds across the globe to help the needy and underprivileged persons.  THANK YOU GLOBALGIVING and we pray for your safety during this crisis period.

With gratitude,
