4. His team carved a hole in the wall that separated NIIT campuses from slum areas. Why did they carve hole in the wall?	This innovative methodology was first experimented in New Delhi where Dr. Mitra‟s team carved a “Holein-the-Wall” that separated the NIIT premises from the adjourning slum in Kalkaji. Through this a hole, a freely accessible computer was put up for use which proved to be an instant hit among the slum dwellers, especially the children. With no prior experience, the children learn to use the computer on their own. The experiment suggested that children, irrespective of their social, ethnic or educational identity, can learn to use computers by themselves, thereby closing the much discussed „digital divide”.

6. What could be the implications of this finding to existing teaching practices especially those that are related with the use of ICT in learning?	Over the 4 year research phase (2000-2004), HiWEL has extensively studied the impact of Learning Stations on children. Hole-in-the-Wall Learning Stations were installed in diverse settings, the impact of interventions was monitored and data was continually gathered, analyzed and interpreted. Rigorous assessments were conducted to measure academic achievement, behaviour, personality profile, computer literacy and correlations with socio-economic indicators. The research has been both qualitative and quantitative. We provide you with a summary of the key quantitative research findings over this period of past 4 years.	India		Google.com	Phrase Searching
