“The response is amazing. Within a year of the product launch, the programme has been successfully implemented and used in more than 100 reputed schools including most of the Central Government institutes like Kendriya Vidyalaya and Navodaya and top private schools,” said Mr. Kris Srikkanth
“This has encouraged us to take yet another stride to go digitizing the teaching concepts also for the benefit of Matriculation School students across the country,” he added.
Holistically digitised, the pedagogy’s unique content is meticulously devised for CBSE students of 4th to 10th standards. It provides theme-based learning advantage generating interest with illustrations and details based on cricket, football, tennis, badminton, chess, etc. Each session / learning object comprises audio-video component, text-visual elements and quizzes and other interactivities for facilitating in-depth and better understanding of even complex things easily.
“As sport is a fascinating medium, edustrokes.com has become a big hit with students who easily relate to, and understand the concepts. It is easier to drive home the point, say, the concepts of force, friction, velocity, etc, through interesting explanations and examples via sports rather than reaching out to with things like Newton’s laws in a more customary preaching way,” he said.
The tool’s audio-video session allows live interaction with teachers and coaches through video-audio and text chat modes. Phoning in facet for doubt clarification during the interactive Question & Answer sessions gives more functional edge.
Assignment and tests for each module, Constant upgradation and enhancement of content regularly in the ongoing process and Course completion certificate at the end of the course by edustrokes.com makes the tool more dynamic and advantageous in e-learning.
