Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu is thinking on the lines of revamping the school education in the state. The Tech savvy CM is contemplating to bring the idea of digital classrooms to the state. AP wants Tatas and Cisco to join hands and help the state to implement this project in all the residential schools in the State from the next academic year.
Top Officials of Tata Group met the Chief Minister the other day and demonstrated the project. They have explained the CM how these digital classrooms will help a child connect virtually and enable them to think and visualize lessons instead of reading them out of a book.
The model has been implemented in 350 schools in Maharashtra and each digital class will cost around Rs. 5-8 lakh per class. Andhra Pradesh government may implement this project in select schools in the coming academic year.
