Brilliant Effort!! I can’t believe what kind of transformation this training brought in the participants. Not mere digital knowledge but the fire in them to go back and make the learning skills of the children more capable to use computers in teaching and enhance the student’s interest. Incredible!! Microsoft, Hats off!!
