November 24th, 2011 - 6:17 pm ICT by IANSThiruvananthapuram, Nov 24 (IANS) Nearly 1.50 lakh students in Kerala are set to be equipped with animation skills in December through a state-run programme that has helped to break the barrier in IT education in schools.
In May, the IT@School project had trained 1,586 selected students in animation skills with the help of whom 12,535 others were trained during Onam vacation in August.
A statement issued here Thursday said a minimum of 50 students each from a school would attend the mass training programme in December through IT Clubs in the institutions.
