EduPad — A tablet based educational system for improving adult literacy in rural India
The rate of Literacy is an important
indicator of a society's overall human development. The population of India, as
in most other developing countries is concentrated in the rural areas. However,
the rural areas of India are often at a disadvantage within the Indian
Education System. An educational system called EduPad, to reduce the rural
adult illiteracy using advancements in technology is proposed here.
Such a
system can be used to make up for lack of qualified personnel and adequate
infrastructure in rural India. The device proposed here is an interactive
Tablet, which is capable of teaching multiple languages. We propose to develop
interactive educational software which can run on the tablet. The software
helps the user to learn to write as well as spell the alphabets. Initially the
software teaches alphabets and then moves onto words and sentences.
