Description

This e-learning module created uses simple language to reach out to people and spread awareness on HIV an its causes and effetcs. The Module designed as a game is aimed at education by way of entertainment.

 What we deliver

The content focuses of HIV/AIDS awareness through a set of simple questions which are accompanied by multi-choice answers for the player to choose from. Each question is aims at spreading the awareness on HIV/AIDS and has relevant answers for each. The player can proceed to each subsequent question after he/she has answered one correctly.

 Whom we deliver

The module is extremely interactive and is equipped with voice as well for the player/user to get involved in the module and complete the entire series of questions that complete the game.

 Why is the project unique?

The project is sustainable as it only needs a teacher or an instructor to run the Cd and does not involve any huge costs. Additionally the project is extremely scalable as more modules and features can be added to it and an extension of the current programme.

 Roadmap

This millennium is recognized as the information age as it shall become the most important tool for the people. Also, in the current scenario against the backdrop of ICT-enabled social and economic opportunity are some statistics: one-third of the world’s population has yet to make a phone call, fewer than one-fifth has experienced the Internet, and most of the information exchanged over the Internet is in English, the language of some 10% of the world’s population (UNDP et. al., 2001). Given the right enabling environment, ICTs can be leveraged by poor countries, communities and individuals to “leapfrog” into a more empowered, equitable and prosperous future. ICT offers great opportunity for enabling people to use a wide array of services that were hitherto unavailable to them like specialized medical consultancy through telemedicine, weather and best practices information through agro-extension services, and e-governance services such as birth and death certificates, drivers’ license, land records, etc. – ICT helps in faster communication between people through the use telephone (fixed line and cell phones), email, voice over telephony, fax, etc. – Diminishes geographical distances and provides access to data and other services that are far away from the user through online experts, online journals, databases etc. – Can help in redefining education by individualizing content of education. This is especially true for extension services and adult education. Also localization of content is possible to a greater extent using ICT. – Brings isolated population closer to necessary services like medicine through services like telemedicine. – Necessary business information like weather predictions, rainfall etc can be accessed by the farmers for more planned cultivation. Also the market prices can be accessed by the farmers to know where they can sell their produce and the best margins.
