🏫 Introduction to SEIS Microschool
Eunkyung Jeong, the principal of SEIS Microschool in Bihar, India, introduces the school and its unique location on an island in the Ganges River. SEIS Microschool, the first of its kind, was inaugurated on January 29, 2024, with speeches from GETT Chairman Ahn Dong-gyu and other dignitaries. The school operates on two models: the standard model where students use individual tablet PCs for independent study and group classes with a projector, and the simple model where a single tablet is connected to a projector for group instruction. The importance of providing headphones for students to avoid interference from educational content noise is emphasized.
📚 Preparing to Run a Microschool
The process for establishing a microschool includes a 4-week training course for microschool managers and an optional 6-week learning leader course, totaling 10 weeks of training. SEIS Microschool utilizes the classrooms of the SEIS school, but in villages without schools, village halls or church locations can be used. Given the unreliable electricity supply in poor areas, the necessity of batteries and converters for storing electricity is highlighted. The importance of immediate charging of tablet PCs and the need for sufficient batteries and converters for beam projectors are stressed. Establishing a sustainable microschool involves cooperation with local education committees and selecting interested students, possibly charging a tuition fee to encourage participation.
🌟 The Operation of Microschools
The actual operation of microschools requires the registration of each tablet PC via the Internet and downloading educational content from Google Drive. The Enuma program, used in microschools, does not require the Internet after initial registration. Educational content covers English, math, character studies, and the Bible, with plans to produce Korean language education materials. Content is in English with footnotes in various languages. Class guidance is facilitated by PPTs that include videos, audio, and homework. Instructors are advised to conduct classes interactively, ensure safe use and collection of tablets, check homework and attendance, and maintain a loving and encouraging environment for students. The script concludes by recognizing the transformative impact of microschools on underprivileged children.

Transcripts
hello? My name is Eunkyung
Jeong, and I am the principal of SEIS Microschool
I would like to tell you about the reality of running a microschool
I would like to explain the reality of microschool operation
by dividing it into three parts
First, I would like to introduce SEIS Microschool
in Bihar, India
Second, I would like to talk about preparations for microschools
Third, I would like to talk about the actual operation of microschools
SEIS Microschool is located in the Indian state of Bihar
The Indian state of Bihar is located in northeastern India, below the border with Nepal
Also, the capital of the Indian state of Bihar is called Patna
The wide Ganges River flows through Patna
In the middle of the Ganges River,
there is a very large island called Camdeera with a population of over 300,000
SEIS Microschool is located in a remote village
in the middle of the Ganges River
As you can see in the photo, SEIS School,
where SEIS Microschool is operated, is located in a remote village surrounded by agricultural land on all sides
On January 29, 2024, the opening ceremony of SEIS Microschool,
the first school in the world, was held
GETT Chairman Ahn Dong-gyu gave an encouraging and congratulatory speech
Director Seong-do Cha, Secretary-General Young-gil Lee,
and principals from micro schools around the world
attended and congratulated us
There are two models of microschools
The first model is called the standard model, and it is a model
in which each student uses a tablet PC to study independently
while taking group classes using a projector
The second model is a simple model
where classes are taught in groups
by connecting one tablet to a projector or monitor
In a standard model microschool,
each child is given his or her own tablet PC
All children can study the various educational contents
contained within the tablet
PC through self-directed learning at their own pace
However, at this time, we speak out loud to each other and study again
It is very important to provide headphones
as the sound of educational content
can interfere with learning
Please provide headphones so
that you can listen to the educational content
through headphones and practice through the microphone
In a simple model microschool,
all children study the same educational content together
at the same pace
Therefore, we hope that learning instructors encourage students to follow
along with the songs or movements
This is a simple model microschool class
Let’s take a look at the scene together
Let me tell you about preparations for microschools
If you want to run a microschool,
you can complete a 4-week training course for microschool managers
In addition, those in charge can additionally complete the 6-week learning leader
training course together, for a total of 10 weeks of training
This is the first round of training for managers
and learning instructors
who want to run microschools in various countries around the world
We completed GETT's microschool
director and learning instructor training course via Zoom, and on the right,
we see the learning instructor graduation ceremony taking place
In order to run a microschool, you need a place
In the case of SEIS Micro School,
the micro school is operated using the classrooms of the SEIS school
However, in villages without schools,
village halls can be used
Also, if you are involved in a church ministry,
you can run a microschool at your church service location
Microschools use a lot of digital teaching aids
So it requires a lot of electricity
However, electricity is not supplied smoothly to villages
in most poor areas
So, a battery that can store electricity when it comes on
and a converter to help store it are essential
It is important to charge the tablet PC immediately after use
so that it is ready for the next class
Beam projectors also require a lot of electricity,
so batteries and converters that can store enough
electricity are essential
To prepare for a sustainable microschool,
if a microschool is to be established in a village,
a meeting must be held with the village education committee
Cooperation for the use of the village hall
can also be obtained through a meeting with the village education committee
Children must be selected from the local area
Among many children, it is recommended
to give priority to those who are particularly interested in studying
or the children of parents who are passionate about educating their children
It is also a good idea to charge an appropriate tuition fee
to encourage active student participation and create a sustainable microschool
This time, I will talk about the actual operation of microschools
You must register each tablet PC via the Internet
The Enuma program does not require the Internet,
but you must initially register each tablet using the Internet
User ID and password are provided through the GETT Secretariat
Additionally, various educational contents used in Micro School
can be downloaded from Google Drive
Microschool's content includes English, math, character,
the Bible, and in the future, content related to Korean language education will be produced
Each content is produced in English,
but footnotes are provided in the language used in each country
When you enter the drive, you will find the following folders:
It also contains character, English, math, and study guide materials
that help students effectively convey these various contents
In addition, various contents contain footnotes
in various languages
For example, Hindi, Indonesian, Khmer, Spanish, etc
You can easily conduct classes with the PPT provided in Microschool
PPT includes class guidance, videos, audio, homework, etc
Please pay attention to the following points during class
Show the video and ask the children to sing along with the actions
In the standard model, give the same tablet
PC to the same student each class period
Please guide students to use their tablets safely
and safely collect them
The study instructor must check the assigned homework each time
Check attendance every class time and encourage students not to be absent
Please embrace all children with love and always encourage them
As we have run microschools in the field,
we have found that microschools are truly a blessing
to children in underprivileged areas
thank you for listening
We pray that God will greatly bless each microschool
operating in your area. thank you
