Project Implementation Plan

The project involves the installation of digital classrooms in various Government Schools across the state, after a need-based analysis. The digital classrooms contain a CPU (containing stimulating audio-visual e-learning software for all grades), a keyboard, a mouse and a projector. The classrooms will be specially prepared for this purpose, with curtains and an AC. Since most Government schools have a very high teacher to student ratio, the digital software can be used to aid the teacher, and increase the involvement of students.

One time setup cost: Rs. 75,000/ $1300 includes Software, Hardware and ongoing maintenance for a fully functional digital classroom benefiting a total of 600 Students in a Grade 1-8th  school.

  • Identification of school / Agreement with school
  • Coordination with software, hardware vendors for installation
  • Purchase and installation of software/hardware and classroom modifications as needed
  • Helpdesk at KarmaKonnect Foundation office for emergency issues
  • This is inclusive of project management cost

On-going monitoring cost: Rs. 1000/$15 per month (Impact assessment report-each quarter)

Project Challenges

Government schools suffer from a lot of problems typical of government and public schools in Gujarat. The teaching staff at the school is severely demotivated, and as a result, is not productive. 

The main challenges include setting up the classroom in a less resourceful location, motivating students to take classes regularly, maintaining the curriculum of the class and finding teachers to conduct the classes.

The education level of students is also low.
