Free WiFi hotspot for students

And need to arrange free smartphones

oppo reno 4 proSchools, colleges and universities across Bangladesh are closed due to the Corona epidemic. Due to the closure of educational institutions, students have lagged far behind in normal educational activities. In order to engage students in new activities through new technology, it is necessary to ensure 100% student smartphones and free internet.

Many students do not have a smartphone in their family because they do not see the educational content, so it is necessary to ensure free smartphones for indigent students. Many people do not have TV and DIS connection in their homes due to which the students are not able to watch the classes broadcast on television. For those who have a smartphone, the cost of internet has become a big issue.

It is not possible for 100% of students to learn through digital media without ensuring smartphones and free internet.

Especially in the rural areas of Bangladesh, there is one union information service center in each union and the government has provided high speed broadband internet there. If the high speed and high speed internet of this union information service center could be spread in the rural areas through WiFi hotspot, the students of the village could easily use it for free. Now the question may be whether this free wifi hotspot may or may not be an abuse of the internet. The solution is to block all other websites and hotspots with access to or use of education related websites and apps such as Zoom and Bangladesh education related websites and apps. All other websites are closed to free WiFi hotspots for non-educational websites. This will also provide free internet to the students and the benefits of fully digitalization in the educational activities will be available. The same needs to be done for urban students.
