By leveraging technology, the world is moving quickly towards adopting innovative methods in teaching. It is imperative to provide students in India with an efficient means of education and transform them to excel globally. Owing to the Digital India initiative by the Government, India is becoming a digitally connected country. Many educational institutions began to transform their teaching methods by equipping their classrooms with the latest digital technologies to reap the benefits of e-learning. Embracing this e-learning trend, many vendors came up with solutions to digitalize the classrooms. However, Smart classrooms and implementing e-learning is not limited to digitally equipping the classrooms and converting the content in books into digital format. Another difficulty with e-learning is a huge disparity between the actually prescribed syllabus and the available digital content.
The traditional and teacher-centered methods of teaching have led to creating a huge gap in teaching-learning experience isolating the teacher from students and leaving a weak student behind. Understanding the limitations of traditional classroom training and challenges in e-learning, Code and Pixels, a Hyderabad based company came forward with its comprehensive suite of digital solutions providing content that is 100 percent mapped with the prescribed syllabus to convert the conventional classrooms into digital classrooms. “In 2012 and 2013, we did research on 10,000 Schools and found that no school is getting 100 percent syllabus mapping to state boards. We have evolved as the best content supplier and could win the confidence of 2000 Schools in the first year. Gradually we have won the confidence of many International and corporate reputed groups of schools and now around 7,500 schools are happily using our content as a Smart classroom solution,” says G. Gopi Krishna, CEO & Managing Director, about evolution and services in the industry.
