What is a smart classroom?

Long gone are the days where just a blackboard and chalk were used to teacher children lessons. Students of the current age are hyperactive and lack concentration. It takes more than just plain old classes to keep them engrossed into learning.

Quality education is an essential requisite in today’s competitive environment. Technology has affected us in every aspect. The smart classes is a modernised method of education in Indian education scenario which provides quality education to students by helping them in better concept formation, concept elaboration, improvement in reading skills and academic achievement.

"The students of the future will demand the learning support that is appropriate for their situation or context. Nothing more, nothing less. And they want it at the moment the need arises. Not sooner, not later. Mobile devices will be a key technology to providing that learning support."

With over 15 lakh schools shut down in India due to the pandemic, students all over the country now look up to e-learning.

E-learning has changed the entire game of education technology worldwide especially since the COVID-19 lock-down started. Technology was always known as a boon or a bane thing, but without any doubt it has proven to be a boon in these times.

Every student that you know of right now is relying on distance education for his/her cognitive needs.

In this age, almost every household has an internet connection and access to online learning and a recent survey states that for those who do have proper access to online learning, they could retain 40-60% better than what they could retain in the physical classroom. This is mostly because students can go at their own pace online and reread topics over and again as they like.

Many education technology companies are making it easier for the lower income strata to access online education for free. Many governments across the globe have been starting new e-learning programmes to ensure that everyone has equal access to education in these tough times.

The Central government has recently launched the PM e-VIDYA platform, with 12 new DTH channels, one for each class to reach out to all strata’s of society. These efforts have proved beneficial to a sizable chunk of the school-going population.

A famous edutech company based in Bangalore stated that their demand has shot up by 200% due to the covid lock-down.
