Over 2,000 students of Kendriya Vidyalayas will be part of a pilot project in which they would be taught science and mathematics on tablets. Initiated by the HRD ministry to enhance learning in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) subjects, the students will not only access the reading material, but will also submit their assignments and reports and get evaluated online. They will not have to carry books to school every day.
Students from KVs across 25 regions will be selected for the pilot run. Each region will have at least one school where the initiative will be launched. Based on the experience and outcome, the ministry will take a call on the project in 2018.
