SIT (Self-Instruction through Technology) and Read project celebration
/Today was a closing celebration of the SIT and READ project which was funded through a grant by the US State Department’s Reciprocal Exchange Program. Through this project,Stephanie Nislow (co-founder of Ogstar Reading) trained five teachers from Duha and two REAP teachers on Ogstar, an evidence-based technology application. Thanks to the grant, five Dell laptops were purchased and will be used by six-year-old children in our early childhood program to practice reading in English. Primary students at Kigali Christian School, one of our partner schools will use iPads for self-guided instruction. REAP is the only organization in Rwanda to use the Ogstar program integrating technology as a methodology of teaching reading in English.
