“One of the consequences of the pandemic was that educational institutions all around the globe had to hasten towards providing digital education. This came with many challenges, including accessibility for students, efficient content, teaching and learning resources, and more. In pursuance of this, our long-standing education partners worked extremely hard to create SPUTNIK, an online digital learning platform that has inbuilt lessons and assignments in math, English, and science that students can participate in from their homes.
Through SPUTNIK, teachers could check students’ work regularly, keep a record of each child’s progress, and most importantly, keep in touch with the students during lockdowns to ensure that their academic progress did not come to a complete halt altogether. With the aim of providing a holistic learning experience that nurtures the student’s overall development, we also provide additional support for teachers who teach students in innovative ways, such as math through computers, communication skills through videos, and more.” These endeavours and innovations were targeted at creating a sustainable future in education..
