2011 First Certificate Awarding Ceremony

It’s time to write important something after some time. Although Udubaddawa Nisala Nenasala was silence for some time we were busy with the day today duties. Actually not only our selves but everybody of this competition is busy with his duties. Somehow what I want to stress is we have prepared the ground floor previous months. As a result of that Last 29th Sunday we were able to do parents and students gathering for special occasion. That was a certificate awarding ceremony of Udubaddawa Nisala Nenasala students who have followed their ICT enabling course in year 2010.
Approximately 100 students were able to receive their ICT certificate in Udubaddawa divisional sectariat office auditorium. The ceremony was held calmly. All the parents were there to receive their children’s’ certificate. 

There we wanted to do something new for those parents. Because once in blue moon parents participating for that kind of programme. So we tried to give somewhat different kind of awareness. We discussed this matter with fusion sarvodaya. As usual they made background of that. Especially always help full leader for ourselves Mr isura silva gave us his fullest corporation for that. What we did was ICT awareness through online. Although Skype calling is normal thing for ICT friendly users there are so many other people (Parents, Village level persons, elders, senior students) who don’t know even INTERNET. So we discussed to give this real experience to them. It was Isura Sir the resource person who made that very meaning full, practical, simple awareness speech through Skype to audience who were at Udubaddawa AGA office auditorium. At that time Isura Sir was at home Colombo,Piliyandala and we(audience) were at Kuliyapitiya,Udubaddwa. Some persons were thinking about that now they can see and hear /video and audio in one time. So we have felt that although Isura Sir wasn’t at Udubaddawa he was able to talk to the heart to our parents. Actually that was a result of this digital/technological future.

That awareness was very successful. At the end of the speech of Isura Sir he let one of participants of Udubaddawa to ask a question from him through Skype…after some time one of parents came in front of the computer machine and made his question. That was somewhat interesting matter…

” සර් අපි දැන් ඉන්නේ පරිඝණක යුගයක.මීට ඉහත ‍අපි අවුන්ස වලින් රාත්තල් වලට මාරැ වුණා. රාත්තල් වලින් පස්සේ ග්රැම් වලට එතැනින් පස්සේ ටෙලිවිෂන් යුගයකට අපි ආවා.මට තියෙන ගැටලුව තමයි අපිට මේ සමාජය තල ජිවත් වීමේදි කැමැත්තෙන් හෝ අකමැත්තෙන් මේ දේවල් භාර ගැනිම‍ට සිදු වෙලා තිබිම.සර් මෙන්න මේ කැමැත්තෙන් හෝ අකමැත්තෙන් භාර ගැනිම‍ට සිදු වෙලා තිබිම මට පැහැදිලි කරලා දෙන්න පුලුවන්ද?... “ 
Isuru Sir was able to answer that question very simply. Because examples that were taken to explain above situation was very clear.
What is your IDEA about that question??? I mean your answer…Try to solve that kinds of matters ! ! !
So I feel that real Digital future is this…
We were able to show the way of our new teaching innovations to public on that day.
