Transforming the educational landscape through digital classrooms by connecting passionate people from all over the world

In Sadar and Saughat Blocks of Basti District, Sadbhawna Gramin Vikas Sansthan (SGVS) initiated an innovative approach to provide quality education to students studying in various Government Upper Primary/Junior High Schools, with due permission from the Education Department. A digital/smart classroom has been established on the campuses of selected schools to provide quality education and study materials to students belonging to the Upper Primary sections of the 10 selected schools in Mathematics, Science, English and Artificial Intelligence (AI). These subjects were deliberately chosen because most students are reluctant to study them. Sessions are designed in such a way that they become interesting and students focus their attention on the subjects.

As a progressive organisation, we strongly believe that gained knowledge is the first step towards empowerment. Hence, to ensure interest and quality education, SGVS initiated:

• Establishing digital classrooms in the selected schools.
• Selection of local volunteers to work as classroom assistants for managing and running the digital classrooms.
• 150-200 students belonging to poor and marginalised communities, who do not have the capacity for additional expenditure on coaching, are registered for study in the digital classrooms.
• The curriculum is well designed and content is delivered in an interesting manner. The use of AI is promoted to facilitate smarter learning of course content.
• Through a panel of teachers from across the globe, course content is delivered.
• Building a knowledgeable and empowered rural India through quality education.

Knowledgeable and Empowered Rural India through Quality Education

• 2,130 students were registered in the project area.
• Enrolment of students in project-covered schools increased by 50%, along with a 70% increase in attendance.
• Academic performance of students increased by 90%, which is clearly reflected in their grades and test scores.
• At Block-level competitions, students of the digital classrooms topped in their respective subjects.
