Now they browse the internet.
And share their learnings.
This new sign language was developed by computer teacher Shweta Walishettar with the help of the trainers at the Microsoft Shiksha IT Academy in Dharwad, Karnataka. Shweta is one of the 6,47,000 teachers that have been trained by Microsoft’s Project Shiksha in IT skills. The program has impacted over 30 million students so far.
