How technology is helping society get better learning outcome - ETtech

In a classroom in rural Maharashtra, students stare at a screen as it reads out their English textbook. The teacher occasionally clicks on a word for its Marathi translation -- the primary language of most students at the school -- or shows them a picture to make them understand a word. This method of learning has started to significantly improve the quality of English education in Maharashtra's government schools. Sanjay Gupta, Chief Executive Officer of EnglishHelper, which created the technology platform, the company developed it after researching the most efficient way to learn a new language. "The challenge is to get exposure to language as a student. This is a multisensory, repetition-based platform which won't confuse the student," he says.
