Grameenphone, a2i and Chattogram divisional ICT4E organised “Teacher Award 2022: Digital Access and Teacher Competence in Blended Education” to recognise the contribution of ambassador teachers in supporting online education during the Covid-19 pandemic through digital means.
Project Director of UNDP Bangladesh Dewan Muhammad Humayun Kabir and Chief Business Officer of Grameenphone handed over the crest & certificates signed by Nurul Ferdous Musanna, Head of Government and Strategic Business, to 418 teachers at the award ceremony jointly organised on September 03 at the GEC Conventional Hall in Chattogram.
Director of Secondary and Higher Education Bangladesh Md Shahedul Khabir Chowdhury joined the program as the chief guest in the presence of Uttam Kumar Das, Director, Training, Primary Education, Dhaka; Professor Mustafa Kamrul Akhter, Chairman, Board of Intermediate and Secondary Education, Chattogram, and other respected attendees.
As Covid-19 swept through the world, students all over the nation were left without classrooms, schools, friends, and even formal education, and it became crucial to bring education fingertips. With online classes gradually becoming the norm, the teachers also held on to their solemn duty to educate students by obtaining various alternative methods.
Grameenphone and a2i collectively came forward with several initiatives to ensure seamless and ideal use of technology and internet service for teachers, including “Shikkhok Batayon”, to drive inclusion and eradicate the divide.
Online school activities were safeguarded through such initiatives. To honour the active ICT4E ambassador teachers across the country for their dedicated efforts to continue educating students amid the pandemic, “Teacher Award 2022: Digital Access and Teacher Competence in Blended Education” recognised 418 ambassadors in the Chattogram division.
