In the news
“Teaching the teachers”
Nepal’s Kantipur daily featured FEDUC’s e-learning programme, which trained public school teachers in Kavre to use computers and digital materials in their classrooms.
It is one example of how FEDUC invests its own resources to test new ideas that can change everyday teaching practice.
