It included many practical sessions on using technology in education. Last day the participants presented outcomes of their project work on developing e learning packages for education.

Workshop evaluation by participants
Most of the participants rated the workshop as excellent.
Workshop evaluations further indicated it was a very practical workshop and the trainees are highly motivated to incorporate technology in their existing teaching programs, design flipped classrooms and e learning modules using the user friendly software that was introduced by the resource person. It is expected that the group of one health scholars nominated by the health science faculties of the University of Peradeniya will serve as catalysts to bring about changes to the  teaching learning system in their own faculties.
