Kejriwal Government to introduce smart classrooms in its schools

New Delhi: The Delhi government has decided to transform its schools into ‘smart’ institutions, and to begin with, smartboards will be installed in more than 20,000 classrooms .

This process of making classrooms smart has started from Shaheed Amir Chand Sarvodaya Vidyalaya located at Shankaracharya Marg, where 16 classrooms have been transformed into smart classrooms by installing hi-tech smartboards. On Tuesday, Deputy Chief Minister and Education Minister Manish Sisodia visited the school to review the transformation process and understand the working of smart boards.

The Deputy Chief Minister said that all these smart boards are equipped with state-of-the-art technology that will not only make the teaching-learning process a joyful one, but also help children learn better. With the integration of technology, children will have access to all online learning resources. Along with this, modern cameras for recording will also be installed in classrooms so that live recording of the class can be done. These recorded videos can be further accessed by students and teachers for educational purposes, whenever required.

‘In the last few years more than 20,000 new classrooms have been constructed in government schools of Delhi. We will convert all these classrooms into smart classrooms in a phased manner along with those under construction. Special training will be given to all the teachers to make better use of the smart boards for improving the quality of education at schools.” he said.
