Rohit Pande, a graduate of Indian Institute of Technology, Delhi and Indian Institute of Management, Calcutta launched his latest innovation Classpad, a new generation tablet for personalised and interactive teaching and learning at IIT Delhi.

According to Mr Pande, Classpad would facilitate personalised and interactive learning in the classroom and make education accessible to every student depending on his/ her intelligence level and talent. “Using Classpad, teachers would be able to transfer class work to the students' tablet effortlessly, share their own content and conduct tests/assessments without any hassle. Students can also attempt assessments and get immediate results and enhance their learning techniques,” he said.

It is a touch screen gadget with a 7-hour battery life, 1.3 Ghz processing speed and a built-in memory of 4 GB expandable up to 8 GB.

Addressing the participants at the launch, Mr Rohit Pande, Chief Executive of Classteacher Learning Systems said that the education system in India did not differentiate students learning capabilities. “Everyone is taught at the same level. The software installed in Classpad tests students' problem solving, creativity and application of language skills and helps categorise them as fast learners, average and slow learners. This in-built artificial intelligence in Classpad will assist in reducing the monotony of repetitive sessions in the classroom. Teachers can now complete their syllabus within schedule and get considerable time to focus on slow learners,” he said, justifying the roll out.

Available for students in standard 3 to 12, Classpad will serve as an interactive e-reading device, with the capability of storing dozens of books. It can also be integrated with existing school platforms and be easily connected to the interactive whiteboards.

Classpad is available in 2 models: Trolley model for multiple student usage and one Tablet per Child (OTPC) model.
