At the end of the day, a school will be judged by what happens inside the classroom.
And in the long run, a school’s real test lies in what the student takes away from
the classroom. Does he take back a load of homework on something he hasn’t understood
well? And with it, a little despair, a diminishing enthusiasm for studies? Or does
he take back a new light of understanding, an improved competence, and an eagerness
to know more?
Born in 2003 and just 10 years young, Educomp smartclass has created shall we say,
yet another divide of Have and Have Nots: schools that have Educomp smartclass and
schools that don’t. Fortunately, with some 14,500 schools already having embraced
the system, and the number growing at rapid pace everyday, this divide is rapidly
getting narrower. The day is not far when all schools will teach the Educomp smartclass
smartclass did what no one had ever thought of before, bring technology into the
classroom. It brought an exhaustive repository of world class digital modules or
lessons, (consisting of 2D and 3D animations, graphics, audio and video) on every
subject in the K12 spectrum, which the teacher could easily access and project in
the classroom that illuminated and explained abstract and difficult concepts with
liquid clarity. The result was amazing. Knowledge flourished.. freed from the centuries
old bonds of books and chalk and blackboard. A new light of understanding dawned
on young awakened minds. And the classroom became a fascinating place to be in as
a new generation of learners saw (instead of just being told and explained) for
the first time how things happened. And the teacher smiled as she now saw not just
one, two or three but a sea of hands goes up every time she asked a question
A fact that stands endorsed by thousands of school principals in India through their
written testimonials provided to Educomp.
How is smartclass adopted?
The concept is simple. A Server is set up inside the school, loaded with digital
instruction and assessment materials mapped to the school curriculum. Classrooms
are wired to the Server and are equipped with a state of the art Digital Teaching
System(DTS) comprising of a highly versatile interactive white board and a sophisticated
projection system. Teachers access the digital content in their classrooms on an
everyday basis, project it on the board during their classroom sessions and explain
concepts with the help of animations, graphics, video etc.
Smartclass is implemented in schools on a turn-key basis . Educomp provides all
elements required for its implementation such as Hardware, Library of Digital Content,
teachers training , periodic support to ensure smooth functioning of the program.
Above all, schools do not have to worry about the funds required to set up the infrastructure
to run Educomp smartclass. Any school can adopt the program by entering into a contract
with Educomp and pay a nominal subscription fees on a per classroom per month basis.
Here are the Life Transforming tools of CTS that will forever revolutionize the
way you learn:
Animations: with rich graphic like 2D & 3D that helps explain
Multiple Choice Questions: with varying difficulty levels including
higher order thinking.
Real Life Applications: that shall help students to appreciate
the relevance of academic concepts and then apply in real life situations.
Topic Synopsis: for multiple concepts across a chapter for every
subject and grade, helping teachers to summarize the concepts taught at the end
of the class.
Simulations: to help teachers bring the virtual lab right next
to the blackboard and demonstrate experiments while teaching.
Diagram Maker: a never before, step by step illustration of complex
diagrams that helps teachers to explain how to make diagrams from the exams point
of view, click-by-click.
Teaching Ideas: these are innovative teaching strategies that can
be easily implemented inside the classrooms to make learning enjoyable, engaging
Mind Maps CTS: also provides an organized graphic presentation
of concepts in a chapter covering all its aspects.
Worksheets CTS: will have ready worksheets for all chapters containing
various types of elements like fill in the blanks, true or false etc.
