Sirte University’s e-Learning Center has unveiled its new online educational platform, signalling a move into digital education. This is a step towards modern educational methods that aim to foster interaction, and skill development.
Dr. Suleiman Al-Shater, President of Sirte University, commented during the platform’s launch event that “the university administration is committed to supporting all efforts to enhance the educational process. Digital education has become an essential requirement for contemporary educational institutions and its significance cannot be overstated.” The event was attended by faculty members, college deans, administrative directors, and other stakeholders interested in Sirte University’s academic progress.
Furthermore, the Director of the e-Learning Center confirmed that the platform is now operational. It “requires active participation from both faculty members and students, to ensure the success of this initiative, which aims to benefit both educators and learners.”
Last month, the United Nations Development Program (UNDP) recently completed the construction of the “Noor Al-Ma’arifa” school in Sirte.
The school was constructed over a span of eight months. With an impressive built-up area of approximately 800 square meters, the total expanse, including its facilities, spreads over 5,000 square meters. The educational infrastructure boasts eight classrooms, two school labs, essential service facilities, a courtyard, and a specially designed canopy for morning assemblies.
A formal handover ceremony was conducted, attended by the luminaries of Sirte’s administration. The handover document was signed by Mukhtar Al-Maadani, the Dean of the Sirte Municipality, Muftah Abdel-Kafi, the overseer of education in Sirte, and Mustafa Abu Garsa, the UNDP’s project site supervisor in Sirte. Also present were Saleh Ayadah, Sirte’s municipal council member overseeing education and youth affairs, Khalid Bin Hussein, another council member, Khamis Al-Hussein, the municipality’s deputy, and Mohamed Al-Zleitni, the Director of the planning department.
This initiative underscores UNDP’s commitment to bolstering educational facilities globally, ensuring that communities, irrespective of their location, have access to quality education and infrastructure.
