Raveendran believes in India’s potential to be a global talent pool for teachers

India can become the EdTech capital of the world, with the private sector playing a key role and the public sector acting as a facilitator, says Niti Aayog CEO Amitabh Kant.

But India needs to significantly improve its learning outcomes and technology can help the country leapfrog in a big way, Kant told a virtual conference of Public Affairs Forum of India (PAFI) on 22 Oct 2021.

He also stressed that affordable internet connectivity and technology-based infrastructure are the only ways to enhance the education sector in the country.

“Relying only on physical infrastructure will not be sufficient,” noted Kant, highlighting that the Indian EdTech ecosystem has great growth potential.

“But more importantly, the country will progress, students will learn and learning outcomes will improve,” he said, adding that comprehensive EdTech architecture will help with better access to education, especially to disadvantaged groups.

He also called for integration of technology in the education system to address the problem of a digital divide in India and bring revolution in the rural areas.

The new national education policy was responsive to the clarion call to integrate technology at every level of instruction, he pointed out.

Byju’s founder and CEO Byju Raveendran believes that through EdTech, there is an opportunity for students to learn as well as India to become a global talent pool for teachers.

“We talk about the democratic dividend on the one hand, but if they don’t have access to education, it’s not of much use.

“On the other hand, if we do provide it, it’s a huge opportunity for India,” said Raveendran. #technology #investment #exports /fiinews.com
