Conrad introduces game-based learning for kids in Meghalaya

Shillong: Meghalaya chief minister Conrad K Sangma announced the introduction of ‘game-based' learning for children under the Early Childhood Development (ECD) mission, with learning centres to be set up across the state.
"It is important that a child is introduced to game-based learning, which will enable them to develop their perceptual, motor, cognitive, and self-regulation skills," he said after inaugurating a model creative learning centre (MCLC) at Dobakkol in Tura of West Garo Hills district on Monday.
Lauding Mere Mentor and Dobakkol Non-Govt LP School for collaborating to start the MCLC, the CM said, "The state govt has funded the infrastructure, but it will be the collective responsibility of the organisation to ensure that it becomes functional."
An amount of Rs 50 lakh was sanctioned for the project under the CM's Special Development Fund.
