Wishes for Hope, Peace and Prosperity for 2021
As a new year dawns, one thing we know for certain is that the new normal we adapted to in 2020 will guide us to 2021 as well. While we all hope for a better new year, it is important to reflect on the past year and gather knowledge and skills that will be essential for us to thrive in the year to come.
Some of the skills that we need to take into the new year include health and safety regulations to prevent the spread of Covid-19, such as social distancing, regular sanitizing and wearing of masks. Other norms acquired are working from home and online education.
Education from the safety of home
“Through the collaborations, students will be offered transfer programs to these prestigious universities. Students are given the opportunity to complete the first two years at NCHS, and thereafter transfer to a university of choice” explained CEO/ Deputy Chairman of Nawaloka College, Victor Ramanan.
Mr. Ramanan stated that all the universities are among the top higher education providers and because of the Nawaloka College partnership, will be easily approachable to Sri Lankan students. The pathway will eliminate the hindrances that commonly prevent students from studying in top international universities.
“Education is for life and is the most valuable investment that is made. Therefore, we at Nawaloka College are proud to offer pathways which equip students with the knowledge and expertise needed for professional success” Mr. Ramanan said.
Online Education
As the world is disrupted due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Nawaloka College is determined that their students do not face any disadvantages and are not left behind. The college strives to maintain its timelines, so that the students will be able to complete their education without additional delays.
It was stated that some students find difficulties with specific subjects where they may not have sufficient background knowledge, but the Nawaloka College Learning Management Systems enable them to seek additional support from the wealth of additional resources and information available. All lecture notes and slides, library resources, class worksheets and support information are available to students whenever they require them.
In addition, the use of a state-of-the-art smart board enables students to download all the material including lecture notes and recordings. Therefore, even if the student is unable to attend the session, the system ensures they aren’t left behind, and are kept abreast with their education.
Furthermore, while students cannot attend laboratory sessions, they are given access to videos in which the activities are demonstrated, after which students’ complete worksheets to ensure that they have understood the processes and outcomes.
Global education in Sri Lanka
The Nawaloka College of Higher Studies is proud to have partnered with numerous international leaders in education to help Sri Lankan students achieve their dream of gaining the best global education.
The partner universities include the California State University Monterey Bay, California State University San Marcos, California State University Bakersfield, California State University, Sacramento, California State University, Northridge, California State University, Fresno, California State University Humboldt and the State University of New York at Albany in America.
