Private & Confidential The Context of COVID-19 crisis 2 • Corona pandemic has disturbed academic calendars everywhere in the world. • There is a deeply felt need for new approaches to teaching and learning.

Together with a custom designed Learning Management System, online education is easy to manage and highly effective. • Students and the faculty share these pages, concurrent and seamless access helps in anchoring the class firmly.

Private & Confidential The Context of our product and services design and development 3 Competency based/ outcome based education: a new approach to teaching/learning/assessments, incorporating a complex new set of exercises and disciplines, that require careful deliberation. ICT aides may become important in successful implementation. Deficit of good teachers: to meet requirements of existing colleges as also a large planned expansion in certain regions (new institutions, increasing annual enrolments). Deficit/absence of pedagogy for a new age: incorporating a far greater role for visuals, interactivity. A different approach to writing text; a new reliance on telecom to update / add / modify learning materials on a continuous basis. Sensitivity to changing expectations and preferences, as also to the needs of those coming from rural or non- English speaking backgrounds. Ability to address heterogeneous classrooms: this has been an issue- the need to provide efficient, effective remedial and supplementary education for weaker learners, in important or ‘difficult to master’ subjects/skills. Need for standardised, continuous assessment of knowledge, competency and skills: swift, objective, set in different contexts, for different learning elements. Need for innovative use of ICT: a. To improve learning outcomes on a more consistent basis b. To reduce costs dramatically c. To facilitate collaboration
